COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES

We collect certain information through tracking technologies used on the Site, such as cookies (data files placed on a device when it is used to visit the Site) and mobile analytics software. We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time.

On our Site, we use session cookies to make it easier for you to navigate the Site by remembering your preferences and to improve and track the overall Site experience. Persistent cookies enable us to track, store, and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Site.

While most browsers are automatically set up to accept cookies, you can adjust your browser settings to reject cookies or to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent. Cookies are typically browser-specific. If you use different browsers, you will have to define your preferences on each browser. You can delete all or some of these cookies from your computer by activating the “delete cookies” feature in your browser. If you have several browsers, you must reiterate the deletion request for each browser. If you use different devices, you will need to configure each device to suit your cookie preferences. Note that if you remove or reject our cookies, you may not be able to use certain features on the website.

We use cookies provided by Google Analytics to collect statistical information about the use of the Site. You can learn more about Google Analytics and how it collects and processes data (including how to control the information sent to Google) by visiting: www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/. You can opt out of Google Analytics here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout (requires you to install a browser add-on).

Do Not Track Policy. Some browsers have incorporated “Do Not Track” features. Most of these features, when turned on, send a signal or preference to the websites you visit indicating that you do not wish to be tracked. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret the do not track signal, we currently do not respond to the browser do not track signals.

LINKS TO THIRD-PARTY SITES

Our website may contain third-party links, including third-party integrations. Through these links and third-party integrations, you may be providing information (including personal information) directly to the third party, us, or both. You acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for how those third parties collect, share, or use your information. Because Preferred Apartment Communities has no control over the privacy practices or content of these linked sites, we recommend that you carefully review the privacy policies of every third-party service that you visit or see, including those third parties you interact with through our website.

Our website may also serve third-party content that contains their own cookies or tracking technologies. We do not control the use of those technologies.

SECURITY

We employ reasonable technical and organizational security safeguards to help protect your personal information. However, the Internet is not 100% secure, and there is always some risk in transmitting information over the Internet. Therefore, we cannot promise you that your use of our website will be completely safe. You should use secure methods when transmitting sensitive information to us.

YOUR CHOICES

You may opt out of receiving promotional emails from us by following the instructions in those communications. If you opt out, we may still send you non-promotional emails, such as those about our ongoing business relations.
