Privacy Policy | Barrington Home Buyers

Who we are

This website is run by Barrington Acquisitions, LLC, doing business as Barrington Home Buyers ("Barrington," "we," "us" or "our"). Our mailing address is 2470 Daniells Bridge Rd Bldg 100, Athens, GA 30606. This policy covers barringtonhomebuyers.com and the calls, text messages and emails we send to people who contact us through it.

Information we collect

Information you give us. When you ask for an offer, our form asks for the street address, city, state and zip code of the property, your name, your phone number and your email address. It also records that you checked the consent box and which page you sent the form from. If you call, text or email us, we keep what you tell us about the property and your plans, such as its condition, who lives there, any mortgage or liens, and when you want to sell.

Information collected automatically. When you visit the site, our website host and analytics tools may record your IP address, browser type, device type, the pages you view, the site that sent you to us, and the date and time of your visit. Some of this is collected with cookies, which are explained below.

We do not ask for Social Security numbers, bank account numbers or card numbers through this website.

How we use your information

To look at your property and prepare a cash offer or other selling option.
To call, text or email you about your property inquiry, including your offer, follow-up questions, appointments and automated replies.
To move a sale forward if you accept an offer, including sharing the needed details with the closing attorney.
To run the website, keep it secure, block spam, and understand which pages and ads people find useful.
To keep business records and meet our legal obligations.

Text messages and phone calls

If you check the consent box on our form, you agree that Barrington Home Buyers may call, text or email you at the number and address you gave us about your property inquiry. Some of these messages may be sent with automated technology.

Message frequency varies with your conversation with us.
Message and data rates may apply, based on your mobile plan.
Reply STOP to any text to stop receiving texts. We will send one message confirming that you have opted out, and then no more texts unless you sign up again.
Reply HELP to any text for help, or call us at (706) 705-7703.
Consent to receive calls or texts is not a condition of selling to us or of any purchase.
Mobile carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

We do not sell or share mobile numbers for marketing. No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. We may share it with service providers that help us run our phone and text system or customer service, and only so they can do that work for us. Text messaging opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties.

When we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We share it only in these cases:

With companies that do work for us, such as our website host, form processing, phone and text providers, email and customer records software. They may use your information only to provide their service to us.
With the closing attorney, title company and others involved in a sale you have agreed to.
When the law requires it, such as a subpoena or court order, or to protect our rights, our property or someone's safety.
If our business is sold or merged, as part of that transaction, under the same protections described here.

Cookies and analytics

Cookies are small files your browser stores when you visit a website. We use them to keep the site working and to understand how people use it. We may use Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages are read, and we may use advertising tools such as Google Ads to show our ads to people who have visited this site before. These tools set their own cookies and are covered by Google's own privacy policy.

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. You can also turn off Google Analytics with the opt-out add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout and change your ad settings at adssettings.google.com. Some browsers send a "Do Not Track" signal. There is no common standard for those signals yet, so the site does not respond to them.

How we protect your information

We limit access to the people and service providers who need it to work on your inquiry, and we use reasonable security measures to protect it. No website or email system is completely secure, so please do not send sensitive financial details through the form.

How long we keep it

We keep your information for as long as we need it to answer your inquiry, complete a purchase, and keep the business and tax records the law requires. After that we delete it or keep it in a form that no longer identifies you.

Your choices

Reply STOP to any text, ask us to stop calling, or reply to any email asking us to stop.
Ask us what information we have about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. We may need to keep some records the law requires.
If you live in a state that gives you more privacy rights, contact us and we will respond as that law requires.

Children

This website is meant for adults selling property. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.

Other websites

Our pages link to other sites, such as Google, the Better Business Bureau and social media. Those sites have their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for how they handle your information.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the new version on this page and change the effective date at the top.
