This policy explains the cookies and similar technologies used on https://ratowskyrealestate.com, what each one is for, and how to control them. It sits alongside our Privacy Policy, which covers the information you send us directly through our forms.
A cookie is a small text file a website stores in your browser. Related technologies, including local storage and pixels, work the same way for our purposes here. They let a site remember things between page loads, keep you signed in, and measure how the site is being used.
These make the site work and cannot be switched off. If you create a homeowner dashboard account, our authentication provider (Supabase) sets a session cookie so you stay signed in as you move between pages. Without it there is no way to keep you logged in.
We use Vercel Analytics to understand which pages people find useful, how visitors reach us, and where the site is slow or broken. Vercel Analytics is privacy-oriented: it does not use third-party tracking cookies and does not build a cross-site advertising profile of you. We use it to improve the site, not to target advertising.
On some pages we offer Google sign-in, including Google One Tap. When that prompt loads, Google may set cookies under its own domain and its own privacy policy. It exists only to let you sign in to a dashboard without creating another password. If you never sign in, you never need it.
We do not sell or share your personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising as those terms are defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act. We do not run third-party advertising networks on this site, and we do not place advertising retargeting pixels on it.
Every major browser lets you see the cookies a site has set, delete them, and block future ones, usually under Settings, then Privacy. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will break the signed-in dashboard, but the public side of the site (listings, neighborhood guides, market reports, and our contact forms) will keep working normally.
Most browsers can also send a Global Privacy Control signal if you turn one on, and we honor it. If you would rather we did not use analytics on your visit at all, browser-level blocking of analytics scripts achieves that, and nothing on the site will stop working.
California residents have the right to know what personal information we collect, to request deletion of it, and to correct it. You can exercise any of those by emailing us at the address below. We will not treat you differently for exercising a privacy right. Our Privacy Policy has the fuller description.
If we add a tool that sets cookies, we will update this page and change the date at the top. The date above tells you when this policy last changed.
