Information collected automatically
When you use the Site, we and our service providers may automatically collect information such as your IP address, browser and device type, operating system, approximate location derived from your IP address, referring pages, pages viewed, links clicked, dates and times of visits, and other usage information. We may collect this information through cookies, pixels, tags, local storage, and similar technologies.
Information from other sources
We may receive information from participating builders, real estate professionals, lenders, event partners, advertising and analytics providers, public sources, social-media platforms, and referral partners. We may combine that information with information collected through the Site.
2. How We Use Information
We may use information to:
Respond to questions; schedule tours or appointments; provide information about homes, amenities, events, financing programs, and the community; and otherwise fulfill your requests.
Connect you, at your request or as reasonably necessary to respond to your inquiry, with an appropriate sales representative, participating builder, real estate professional, lender, title company, or other provider.
Send administrative messages and, where permitted, marketing communications about Patterson Farms, available homes, events, incentives, and related offerings.

Carry out any other purpose disclosed when information is collected or with your consent.
3. How We Disclose Information
We may disclose information in the following circumstances:
Service providers. We may provide information to companies that support website hosting, customer relationship management, email delivery, analytics, advertising, event administration, security, and other business operations.
Real estate and homebuying participants. We may provide relevant inquiry information to participating builders, sales representatives, real estate professionals, lenders, title companies, homeowner-association representatives, or other providers involved in responding to your request or assisting with a potential transaction. These parties may have their own privacy policies and practices.
Business partners and event sponsors. If you register for a co-sponsored activity or affirmatively request an offer from a partner, we may disclose information as described at the time of collection.
Advertising and analytics partners. We may permit providers to collect identifiers and Site activity through cookies and similar technologies for analytics, measurement, and advertising. Certain state laws may characterize some of these disclosures as “sale,” “sharing,” or targeted advertising even when no money is exchanged.
Legal and safety purposes. We may disclose information when we believe it is reasonably necessary to comply with law or legal process; protect the safety, rights, or property of any person; investigate fraud or security issues; or enforce agreements.
Business transactions. Information may be disclosed or transferred in connection with a merger, financing, sale of assets, reorganization, bankruptcy, or similar transaction.
With your direction or consent. We may disclose information for other purposes when you direct us to do so or consent.
We do not sell personal information to data brokers for monetary payment. As explained above, however, advertising-related disclosures may be treated as a sale or sharing under certain state privacy laws.
4. Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising
We and our providers may use cookies and similar technologies to keep the Site functioning, remember preferences, analyze traffic, measure marketing, and support advertising. Depending on the technologies in use, providers may include website-hosting or ecommerce platforms, Google, Meta, Mailchimp, and other analytics or advertising services.
You can limit cookies through your browser settings and, where offered, the Site’s cookie-preference tool. Blocking some cookies may affect Site functionality. You may also use industry opt-out tools offered by the Digital Advertising Alliance at optout.aboutads.info and the Network Advertising Initiative at optout.networkadvertising.org. Your browser or device settings may provide additional controls.
The Site may not respond to all “Do Not Track” signals. Where required by applicable law and supported by our systems, we will process recognized browser-based opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control.
5. Email, Telephone, and Text Communications
You may unsubscribe from marketing email by using the unsubscribe link in a message. Even if you opt out of marketing, we may still send non-promotional messages related to an inquiry, appointment, transaction, or other ongoing relationship.
6. Data Retention and Security
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including to respond to inquiries, maintain business and transaction records, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, and enforce agreements. Retention periods vary based on the nature of the information and our relationship with you.
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information. No website, transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure, and we cannot promise absolute security.
