Privacy Policy

Effective date: August 2, 2026

David Hitt (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates davidhitt.com. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

We are a licensed California real estate salesperson affiliated with Redfin. Questions about this policy can go to 310-795-4347 or david@davidhitt.com.

Information We Collect

Information you give us directly. Your name, email address, phone number, and any details you include when you fill out a contact form, request a home valuation, save a property search, register for a seminar or event, or otherwise reach out to us.

Information collected automatically. When you visit the site we may collect your IP address, browser type, device type, pages viewed, time spent, and the site you came from. This is standard web server and analytics data.

Property search activity. If you create an account to save searches or favorite listings through our property search tools, we collect the searches you save, the properties you view or favorite, and the alert preferences you set.

Cookies and similar technologies. We use cookies to keep the site working, remember your preferences, and understand how the site is used. Most browsers let you refuse cookies or alert you when one is set. Some site features may not work properly if you disable them.

How We Use Your Information

  • To respond to your questions and requests
  • To send property listings, market updates, and information you asked for
  • To confirm and remind you about seminars or events you registered for
  • To operate and improve the site
  • To comply with legal obligations and real estate recordkeeping requirements

We do not sell your personal information.

Text Messaging (SMS)

When you provide your mobile phone number on our website — for example, when registering for a seminar or requesting information — and affirmatively opt in by checking the consent box, you agree to receive text messages from David Hitt.

These messages may include registration confirmations, event reminders, event access links, and follow-up related to the information or event you requested. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.

You can opt out at any time by replying STOP to any message. Reply HELP for assistance, or contact us at 310-795-4347.

We do not sell, rent, share, or otherwise disclose mobile phone numbers or SMS consent to any third party or affiliate for their own marketing or promotional purposes. Mobile information is used solely to deliver the messages you have consented to receive. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent are not shared with any third party.

Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

Property Listing Data (IDX)

Property listings displayed on this site are provided through an Internet Data Exchange (IDX) program from the California Regional Multiple Listing Service (CRMLS). This data is provided for consumers’ personal, non-commercial use and may not be used for any purpose other than identifying prospective properties consumers may be interested in purchasing.

Listing data is deemed reliable but is not guaranteed accurate by the MLS or by us. Listings may be sold, withdrawn, or have changed in price or status since last update. Square footage, lot size, room counts, and school information are obtained from sources believed reliable and should be independently verified.

When you save a search, favorite a property, or create an account through our search tools, that information is processed by our IDX provider, iHomeFinder, and may be subject to their privacy practices in addition to ours. Search and account activity may also be reported to the MLS as required by our participation agreement.

How We Share Information

We share information only as needed to run the business:

  • Service providers — our customer relationship management system, email and text messaging platforms, website host, video conferencing provider for seminars, and analytics tools. These vendors process data on our behalf and are not permitted to use it for their own marketing.
  • Our brokerage — Redfin, as required for transaction and compliance purposes.
  • Other real estate professionals — if you ask to be referred to an agent in another market, we share only what is needed to make that introduction, and only with your knowledge.
  • When legally required — in response to lawful requests, or to protect our rights or the safety of others.

The SMS carve-out above is absolute: mobile numbers and SMS consent are never shared for third-party marketing, including with any of the categories listed here.

Analytics and Advertising

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site. These tools may set cookies and collect usage data governed by their own privacy policies.

If we run advertising on Meta or Google in the future, real estate ads are subject to Special Ad Category (Housing) rules, which limit targeting by design.

Your California Privacy Rights

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the CPRA gives you the right to:

  • Know what personal information we collect, use, and disclose
  • Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you
  • Request deletion of your personal information, subject to legal retention requirements
  • Correct inaccurate personal information
  • Limit the use of sensitive personal information
  • Not be discriminated against for exercising any of these rights

We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined under the CCPA.

To make a request, contact us at 310-795-4347 or david@davidhitt.com. We will verify your identity before responding, typically by confirming information already in our records. We aim to respond within 45 days.

Data Retention

We keep information as long as needed for the purpose it was collected, and longer where real estate law, brokerage policy, or tax requirements demand it. Marketing contacts who opt out are retained on a suppression list so we do not contact them again.

Children

This site is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy. The effective date at the top will change when we do. Material changes will be noted on this page.
