11. Indiana Consumer Data Protection Act
The Indiana Consumer Data Protection Act (“Indiana CDPA”) became effective January 1, 2026.
Subject to statutory exemptions, it generally applies to a person conducting business in Indiana or producing products or services targeted to Indiana residents that, during a calendar year:
- Controls or processes personal data of at least 100,000 Indiana consumers, excluding data processed solely to complete payment transactions; or
- Controls or processes personal data of at least 25,000 Indiana consumers and derives more than 50% of gross revenue from the sale of personal data.
Certain organizations and categories of information are exempt.
The inclusion of this section does not represent that Indiana Fire House Buyer necessarily meets these thresholds.
Where the Indiana CDPA applies to us, we will comply with applicable requirements.
12. Indiana Consumer Privacy Rights
Where the Indiana CDPA applies, qualifying Indiana consumers may have rights including:
Confirmation and Access
The right to confirm whether we process personal data concerning you and to access applicable personal data.

13. Exercising Indiana Privacy Rights
Where the Indiana CDPA applies, consumers may submit applicable requests through a secure and reliable method we provide through the Website or another designated privacy-request channel.
A request should identify the right being exercised and provide enough information for reasonable authentication.
We will not require you to create a new account solely to submit a privacy request.
14. Response Timing
Where the Indiana CDPA applies, we generally will respond to an authenticated consumer request without undue delay and within 45 days after receipt.
Where reasonably necessary and legally permitted, we may extend that period once by an additional 45 days, provided that legally required notice of the extension and its reason is given within the original response period.
Applicable information generally will be provided free of charge once annually.
Manifestly unfounded, excessive, or repetitive requests may be handled as permitted by law.
15. Privacy Appeals
Where the Indiana CDPA applies and we decline to take action on a request, the consumer may appeal our decision through a process similar to the original request process.
We will respond to an applicable appeal within 60 days.
If an appeal is denied, we will provide information required by law concerning how the consumer may submit a complaint to the Indiana Attorney General.
16. Sensitive Data
The Indiana CDPA provides additional protection for sensitive data.
Sensitive data may include:
- Racial or ethnic origin;
- Religious beliefs;
- Mental or physical health diagnoses;
- Sexual orientation;
- Citizenship or immigration status;
- Genetic information;
- Biometric information processed for unique identification;
- Precise geolocation; and
- Personal data concerning a known child.
Our standard property-offer forms are not designed to collect unnecessary sensitive data.
Please do not submit unnecessary sensitive information through ordinary Website forms.
Where the Indiana CDPA applies, sensitive personal data will not be processed without consent where consent is legally required.
17. Data Minimization and Compatible Uses
Where the Indiana CDPA applies, we will limit collection of personal data to information that is adequate, relevant, and reasonably necessary for disclosed purposes.
We will not process personal data for purposes that are neither reasonably necessary nor compatible with those disclosed purposes without consent or another lawful basis permitted by applicable law.
18. Data Protection Impact Assessments

These may include certain:
- Targeted advertising;
- Sales of personal data;

19. Privacy Notice and Opt-Out Disclosure
Where the Indiana CDPA applies, our privacy notice will describe:
- Categories of personal data processed;
- Purposes of processing;
- Consumer rights and request methods;
- Categories of personal data shared with third parties; and
- Categories of third parties receiving personal data.
Where we sell personal data or use personal data for targeted advertising within the meaning of applicable Indiana law, we will clearly and conspicuously disclose that activity and provide the legally required method for opting out.
20. Browser Privacy Signals
Some browsers and devices transmit privacy preference signals such as Global Privacy Control.
The Indiana CDPA does not establish the same universal opt-out-signal framework used by certain other states.
Where another applicable privacy law requires us to recognize a qualifying browser- or device-based preference signal, we will process supported signals as required by that law.
21. Telephone Communications
If you provide a telephone number, we may use it to respond to your inquiry and communicate regarding:
- Your property;
- Your requested offer;
- Property research;
- Scheduling;
- Buyer matching;
- Follow-up;

- Related services.
Where federal or state law requires additional consent before regulated automated dialing, artificial voice, prerecorded voice, or marketing communications are made, we will obtain legally required consent.
You may request that calls stop.
22. Recording of Calls and Communications
Indiana generally permits recording of a telephone or electronic communication when the person making the recording is a sender or receiver of the communication or a sender or receiver has consented, subject to applicable law.
We or service providers acting on our behalf may record communications for purposes including:
- Quality assurance;
- Training;
- Documentation;
- Compliance;
- Fraud prevention;
- Security; and
- Other legitimate business purposes.
Because telephone calls may involve people physically located in states or jurisdictions with stricter recording-consent laws, additional notice or consent may be required.
Where another applicable law requires all-party consent or another recording procedure, we will comply with that stricter requirement.
23. Text Messages
If you provide a mobile telephone number and applicable consent, we may communicate by text regarding:
- Your inquiry;
- Your property;
- Scheduling;
- Your requested offer;
- Prospective purchasers;
- Buyer matching;
- Follow-up;
- Potential transactions; and
- Related services.
Where required, separate or additional consent will be obtained before regulated automated or marketing messages are sent.
Consent to marketing communications is not a condition of receiving an offer or selling property where prohibited by applicable law.
Message and data rates may apply.
Message frequency may vary.
Reply STOP to request that applicable text messages stop.
Where supported, reply HELP for assistance.
24. Email Communications
We may use your email address to:

Applicable promotional emails will provide an unsubscribe mechanism.
25. Data Retention
We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for purposes described in this Privacy Policy.
Relevant factors may include:

- Whether a property remains of interest to prospective purchasers;
- Whether a transaction occurred;
- Follow-up needs;
- Contractual obligations;
- Legal requirements;
- Tax and accounting obligations;
- Fraud prevention;
- Litigation or disputes; and

Property inquiries may be retained for future follow-up or buyer matching unless continued retention is prohibited by law or no longer reasonably necessary.
26. Information Security
We maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized:
- Access;
- Acquisition;
- Use;
- Disclosure;
- Alteration;
- Loss; or
- Destruction.
Where the Indiana CDPA applies, security practices will be appropriate to the volume and nature of personal data processed.
No security measure or electronic system can be guaranteed completely secure.
27. Security Incidents
Indiana law contains breach-notification and personal-information-protection requirements separate from the Indiana CDPA.
If a qualifying security incident occurs, we will:
- Investigate the incident;
- Determine applicable notification obligations;
- Take reasonable mitigation measures; and
- Provide legally required notices.
28. Children’s Privacy
The Website is intended for adults involved in real estate matters.
It is not directed toward children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13 through ordinary property-inquiry forms.
Where information concerning a known child is processed and parental consent is legally required, we will comply with applicable law.
