Who we share your data with
At BND Land Networks, we prioritize the privacy and confidentiality of your data. We do not share your information with any third party during the land-buying process. Your data is solely utilized to facilitate and enhance the efficiency of the transaction.
Once the transaction is completed, we retain your data for reference purposes for a limited duration. Rest assured, after this period, we promptly delete your data to ensure continued privacy and security. Our commitment is to handle your information responsibly and transparently throughout the entire process.
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is done so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For users who register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Your Rights
If you are situated in specific regions worldwide, including certain US states and countries within the scope of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you possess certain rights concerning your personal information.
