LAS Companies is a team of licensed real estate agents operating through Keller Williams Realty Hoover. This site, lasrealestate.com, serves buyers, sellers, and investors across Birmingham and the surrounding markets of Jefferson County and Shelby County. When you use this site, certain information moves between you and us. This policy tells you exactly what that is and exactly what happens to it.
𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝟎𝟏 — 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐖𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐜𝐭
This site collects information in two ways: directly, when you choose to provide it, and passively, through standard web technologies that operate in the background whenever you visit.
Information you provide directly may include:
— Your name, phone number, and email address when submitted through a contact form, lead capture, or inquiry field — Property details you share when requesting a home valuation, listing consultation, or investment review — Buyer preferences, timeline, or financial criteria you describe when requesting representation or scheduling a showing — Any message content, questions, or notes you write in free-text fields on this site
Information collected passively through your browser and device may include:
— IP address and general geographic location — Browser type, device type, and operating system — Pages visited, time on site, and referral source — Session behavior captured through cookies and analytics tools
We do not collect Social Security numbers, financial account numbers, credit information, or sensitive personal identifiers through this site. Any financial disclosure shared during a real estate transaction occurs through separate, secured processes governed by Alabama real estate law and Keller Williams Realty protocols.
𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝟎𝟐 — 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐈𝐬 𝐔𝐬𝐞𝐝
Information collected through this site has one purpose: helping buyers, sellers, and investors make informed decisions about real estate in the Birmingham area.
More specifically, we use collected information to:
— Respond to inquiries about buying, selling, or investing in residential or investment properties — Prepare property valuations, market analyses, or investment reviews when requested — Schedule consultations, showings, or listing appointments — Send follow-up communications directly related to your inquiry or an active real estate matter — Improve the performance and usability of this site through aggregated, non-identifying analytics — Fulfill any obligations required under Alabama real estate law or Keller Williams Realty compliance standards
We do not sell your information. We do not use your contact details to build marketing lists unrelated to the real estate service you requested. If you reach out about a property in Hoover and later request to be removed from all communication, that request is honored promptly.
𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝟎𝟑 — 𝐂𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐞𝐬
This site uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to maintain basic site functionality and to measure how visitors interact with the site. Not all cookies are the same. Some are essential to the site working correctly. Others are analytical, helping identify which pages are useful and which are not.
Cookie categories used on this site may include:
— Essential cookies that allow navigation, form submission, and secure communication to function — Analytics cookies that track session data, page performance, and traffic sources in aggregate, non-personal form — Marketing or retargeting cookies placed by third-party advertising platforms if any paid advertising campaigns are active and linked to this site
Most browsers allow you to control cookie behavior through settings. Disabling cookies may affect how parts of this site perform. If you want to review or adjust cookie permissions, your browser settings are the most direct path.
Note on third-party platforms: This site may use Google Analytics or similar tools to understand site traffic. Those platforms operate under their own privacy policies. Google’s data practices are governed by Google’s Privacy Policy, available at google.com/privacy. We do not control what those platforms do with aggregated data on their end.
𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝟎𝟒 — 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐫𝐝-𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐲 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐜𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞
LAS Companies does not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. There are, however, specific circumstances where information may be shared outside this site:
— With Keller Williams Realty Hoover, through which all licensed real estate activity is conducted, as required by brokerage operations and compliance obligations — With service providers who assist in operating this website — such as hosting providers, CRM platforms, or email delivery services — under agreements that restrict their use of your data to the services they provide to us — With other licensed professionals involved in a real estate transaction you have engaged us to facilitate, such as lenders, inspectors, title companies, or attorneys, only when you have initiated that transaction — When required by law, court order, or regulatory authority with jurisdiction over real estate activity in Alabama
Outside of those conditions, your contact information and property details stay within the scope of the service you requested. A buyer asking about homes in Mountain Brook does not have their information handed to an unrelated third party for unrelated purposes.
𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝟎𝟓 — 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲
Information submitted through this site is retained for as long as is reasonably necessary to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected or to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, or brokerage recordkeeping requirements.
Buyer and seller inquiry records connected to an active or completed real estate transaction may be retained for the period required under Alabama real estate regulations and Keller Williams Realty compliance guidelines.
Inquiries that did not result in a transaction are retained only long enough to confirm the request was handled. If you want any record of your inquiry removed from our systems and the request falls outside a legal or brokerage retention requirement, contact us directly.
No data transmission over the internet is completely without risk. We maintain reasonable technical and operational safeguards consistent with our scale and industry standards. We do not store payment information through this site. Financial transactions connected to real estate closings are handled through separate, regulated channels.
𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝟎𝟔 — 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐑𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐬
You have the right to know what information we hold about you. You have the right to request correction of inaccurate information. You have the right to request that we delete information that is no longer necessary for the purpose it was collected, subject to any applicable legal retention requirements.
If you no longer want to receive communications from LAS Companies, you can opt out at any time. Every email communication includes an unsubscribe option. A direct request to stop contact is equally valid and will be honored without penalty.
Residents of California may have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). Residents of other states with applicable data privacy laws may have rights specific to their jurisdiction. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the information at the bottom of this page.
𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝟎𝟕 — 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐧’𝐬 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐜𝐲
This site is directed at adults making real estate decisions. It is not designed for, and does not knowingly collect information from, individuals under the age of 18. If you believe a minor has submitted personal information through this site, contact us and the information will be removed.
𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝟎𝟖 — 𝐋𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐄𝐱𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐒𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐬
This site may contain links to property listings, Keller Williams resources, MLS data feeds, community information pages, or other external sites that LAS Companies does not control. Once you leave lasrealestate.com, this Privacy Policy no longer applies. The privacy practices of external sites are governed by their own policies. We recommend reviewing the privacy policy of any external site before submitting personal information.
𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝟎𝟗 — 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐲
This policy may be updated when site functionality changes, when applicable law requires it, or when our data practices are modified. When updates are made, the revised policy will appear on this page with an updated effective date at the top.
Continued use of this site after a policy update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. If the nature of a change is significant enough to affect how your information is used, we will take reasonable steps to notify active contacts before those changes take effect.
