What Personal Information Does Instant Home Value Gather?
The information we gather from customers helps us continually improve your experience on the Instant Home Value website. Here are the types of information we gather.
Information You Provide: We receive and securely store any information you enter on our Web site or give us in any other way. We use the information that you provide for such purposes as responding to your requests, customizing your account and communicating with you.
Automatic Information: We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. For example, like many Web sites, we use "cookies," and we obtain certain types of information when your Web browser accesses the Instant Home Value website. The information we collect and analyze includes the Internet protocol (IP) address used to connect your computer to the Internet; login; e-mail address; password; computer and connection information such as browser type and version, operating system, and platform and purchase history. We also collect session information; including page response times, download errors, length of visits to certain pages, and page interaction information.
Does Instant Home Value Share the Information It Receives?
Information about our customers is an important part of our business, and we are not in the business of selling it to others. We share customer information only as described below and with subsidiaries of InstantHomeValue.com, a Beyond Search, Inc. Service that either are subject to this Privacy Notice or follow practices at least as protective as those described in this Privacy Notice.
Agents: We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include report generation, sending e-mail, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing search results and links (including paid listings and links), processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. They have access to account information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.
Promotional Offers: Sometimes we send offers to selected groups of Instant Home Value customers on behalf of other businesses. When we do this, we do not give that business your name and address. If you do not want to receive such offers, please adjust your account preferences.
Business Transfers: As we continue to develop our business, we might sell subsidiaries, or business units. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Notice. Also, in the unlikely event that InstantHomeValue.com, a Beyond Search, Inc. Service, or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer information will be one of the transferred assets.
Protection of Instant Home Value and Others: We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; enforce or apply our Terms of Use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of InstantHomeValue.com, a Beyond Search, Inc. Service, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. This does not include selling, renting, sharing, or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information from customers for commercial purposes in violation of the commitments set forth in this Privacy Notice.
With Your Consent: Other than as set out above, you will receive notice when information about you might go to third parties, and you will have an opportunity to choose not to share the information.
How Secure Is Information About Me?
- We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input.
- We do not store credit card information and transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing.
- It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.

Our business changes constantly, and our Privacy Notice and the Terms of Use will change also.
