Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information Your 209 Agent (your209agent.com) collects from visitors, why we collect it, and how it's used. This site is operated by Roger Jones, a licensed real estate agent (California DRE #02060402) with HomeSmart PV & Associates, serving Modesto, Manteca, Turlock, Stockton, and the Central Valley. By using this site, you agree to the collection and use of information as described here.
Information We Collect
Site analytics. We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use this site — pages viewed, time on site, general location (city/region level), device and browser type, and referral source. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to collect this information.
Information you provide directly. If you fill out a form on this site (for example, the contact form or the open house sign-in), we collect what you enter — your name, email address, and/or phone number, plus whatever else that form asks for (a message, or your buying/selling interest, timeline, and how you heard about us). We also log the IP address a form was submitted from, which we use only to detect spam submissions.
Suggesting a spot in the Explore game. The game's "Suggest a spot" form asks for the place you want Roger to visit, an optional line about it, and optionally your name (to credit you on the stand) and email (so Roger can write back if he chooses). If you give a name or email, the form asks you to confirm you're 13 or older. Your suggestion and email are sent to Roger's inbox. Nothing is sent to your email automatically, and this form does not record your IP address. You can ask us to delete your suggestion using the contact details below. A name you give may appear publicly on the stand and its share card.
How We Use Information
We use analytics data to understand and improve the site. We use information submitted through forms to follow up with you about real estate services you've expressed interest in — by phone, text, or email, based on the contact method you selected. We use spot suggestions to decide which places to film and add to the map, and to credit the person who suggested a place if they gave a name. We do not use your information for any purpose unrelated to responding to your inquiry.
Cookies
Google Analytics sets cookies in your browser to distinguish visitors and sessions. You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings, or opt out of Google Analytics entirely using Google's opt-out browser add-on. Blocking cookies won't affect your ability to browse the site.
The Explore Game
The game at /explore remembers which places you've opened and on what day, so it can show check marks in its Places list and stamps in its passport, and which places were on the map last time, so it can mark new ones. It also remembers your sound and zoom settings. All of this is saved only in your own browser (its local storage). It isn't sent to us or anyone else, and clearing your browser's site data erases it. If you open the game inside an app such as TikTok, that app's browser keeps its own separate copy.
The game uses Google Analytics, described above, to count things like which places are opened, the same way it counts page views.
Each place's video is a TikTok video. Nothing from TikTok loads until you tap play. Once you do, the video plays in TikTok's own player, and TikTok may set cookies and collect information under TikTok's privacy policy.
Who We Share Information With
We don't sell your information or share it with third parties for their own marketing purposes. Form submissions are emailed directly to Roger Jones's inbox and are not stored in a separate database. Google provides two services used to operate this site — Google Analytics, which processes site-usage data on our behalf, and Gmail, which delivers form submissions to our inbox (see Google's Privacy Policy).
If Roger is unavailable to respond promptly, a trusted, licensed colleague at HomeSmart PV & Associates may follow up with you on his behalf, so you're not left waiting. We only share what's needed for that colleague to reach out.
If your needs are better served by another licensed real estate agent — for example, if you're buying or selling outside our service area — we may refer you and share your contact information with that agent so they can follow up with you. We only make referrals when we believe it's in your interest, and we may receive a referral fee for doing so, as is standard practice between licensed agents.
We may also disclose information if required by law or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Roger Jones, this site, or others.
Data Retention
We keep lead information for as long as it's useful for following up on your real estate inquiry, or until you ask us to delete it. Analytics data is retained according to Google Analytics' standard retention settings.
Your Choices
You can ask us to access, correct, or delete the information we've collected about you by contacting us below. We'll respond within a reasonable time.
Children's Privacy
This site is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 13. The Explore game's suggestion form collects nothing personal unless you choose to give a name or email, and it asks for a 13-or-older confirmation before either is sent. Someone under 13 can still suggest a spot anonymously.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
