Effective Date: September 9, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Dorothy’s Way (“Dorothy’s Way,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you visit our website at dorothyswayliving.com (the “Site”) or contact us through it. By using the Site, you agree to this Policy.
Information We Collect
Information you give us. When you complete a form on the Site — for example, to request information, ask a question, or apply for an apartment — we collect the details you provide, such as your name, email address, phone number, the floor plan or apartment you are interested in, and anything you include in a message.
Information collected automatically. When you browse the Site, we and our analytics providers automatically collect certain technical information, such as your IP address, device and browser type, the pages you view, the links you click, and the dates and times of your visits. We collect this information through cookies and similar technologies.
Cookies and Analytics
We use cookies and similar technologies to keep the Site working properly, remember your preferences, and understand how visitors use the Site. We use Google Analytics to measure traffic and improve our content; Google Analytics sets its own cookies and processes data on our behalf. When you first visit the Site, our cookie banner lets you accept or opt out of non-essential cookies, and you can change your choices at any time through the “Opt-out preferences” link. For details about the specific cookies we use, please see the cookie details available through that link.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your questions and information requests;
- Process and evaluate rental applications;
- Send you information you request about our community and availability;
- Operate, secure, maintain, and improve the Site;
- Measure and analyze how the Site is used; and
- Comply with our legal obligations and enforce our rights.
How We Share Your Information
We do not sell your personal information for money. We share information only as described below:
- Service providers. We share information with companies that provide services to us, such as website hosting and analytics, so they can perform those services on our behalf.
- Our leasing and management team. We share your inquiry or application details with the people who manage our community so they can respond to you.
- Legal and safety reasons. We may disclose information if required by law, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Dorothy’s Way, our residents, or others.
Because we use analytics services that may collect information across websites, some U.S. state privacy laws treat this as “sharing” (and in some cases a “sale”) of personal information. You can opt out at any time — see “Your Privacy Choices” below.
Your Privacy Choices
- Cookies and analytics. Use the “Opt-out preferences” link on the Site to opt out of non-essential cookies and analytics sharing. We also honor browser-based opt-out signals such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC).
- Email. If we send you marketing emails, you can unsubscribe at any time using the link in the email or by contacting us.
- Access, correction, and deletion. You may ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you. To make a request, contact us using the information at the end of this Policy. We will respond as required by applicable law and will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.
California Residents
If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we collect, use, and share; to request access to or deletion of your personal information; and to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information. We do not sell personal information for money, and we do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of anyone under 16. To exercise these rights, use the “Opt-out preferences” link or contact us as described below.
Data Retention
We keep personal information only for as long as needed for the purposes described in this Policy, and as required or permitted by law.
How We Protect Your Information
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to help protect your personal information. No website or method of transmission is completely secure, however, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children’s Privacy
The Site is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
Links to Other Websites
The Site may link to third-party websites, such as our social media pages. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those websites, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the “Effective Date” above and, where appropriate, provide additional notice. Your continued use of the Site after an update means you accept the revised Policy.
