Privacy Policy

How Ikhousings LLC collects, uses, and protects information shared with us through this website, our contact form, and SMS / text messaging.

Effective date: January 1, 2025  ·  Last updated: January 1, 2025

Ikhousings LLC ("Ikhousings," "we," "us," or "our") operates the website at ikhousings.com (the "Site") and provides real estate investment services in Houston and the surrounding Texas market. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit the Site, contact us, or opt in to receive text messages from us.

By using the Site or providing information to us, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site or submit information to us.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide to us directly, information collected automatically through your use of the Site, and information we may receive from third-party services we use to operate our business.

Information you provide

  • Contact details such as your name, phone number, and email address when you complete the contact form or otherwise reach out to us.
  • Property information you share with us about a property you own, are evaluating, or are representing.
  • Communications including messages, emails, and text messages you send to us.
  • SMS opt-in data including the phone number provided and your consent to receive text messages from us.

Information collected automatically

  • Basic technical information such as IP address, browser type, device type, referring pages, and time of visit, used to operate and improve the Site.
  • Cookies and similar technologies used to remember preferences and measure Site performance. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

2. How We Use Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Respond to inquiries, requests, and messages you send to us;
  • Review property information and discuss potential investment opportunities;
  • Coordinate appointments, follow-ups, and transaction-related communications;
  • Send service updates and, where you have opted in, marketing and informational SMS messages;
  • Operate, maintain, and improve the Site and our services;
  • Comply with applicable laws and protect our legal rights.

3. SMS / Text Messaging

This section describes how we handle phone numbers and SMS opt-in information.

Opt-in and consent

When you check the SMS consent box on our contact form and provide your phone number, you consent to receive marketing and informational SMS text messages from Ikhousings LLC regarding real estate investment inquiries, property offers, transaction updates, and service updates. Opt-in is voluntary, and consent is not a condition of any purchase or service.

Use of mobile information

Ikhousings LLC does not sell, rent, share, or otherwise transfer phone numbers or SMS / mobile opt-in data to third parties or affiliates for their marketing or promotional purposes. Phone numbers and consent records are used solely to deliver the SMS messages you have requested and to maintain records of consent. We may use trusted service providers (for example, a licensed SMS / messaging platform) strictly to deliver messages on our behalf; those providers are contractually limited to that purpose and may not use the information for their own marketing.

Message frequency, STOP, HELP

  • Message frequency may vary based on the status of your inquiry or transaction.
  • Message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile carrier and plan.
  • You can opt out at any time by replying STOP to any text message from us. After you reply STOP, we will send one final confirmation message and will not send further marketing or informational SMS to that number.
  • For assistance, reply HELP to any message, or contact us at (832) 745-9796 or info@ikhousings.com.

Carrier disclaimer

Mobile carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Availability of SMS service may depend on your carrier and device.

4. How We Share Information

We do not sell personal information. We share information only as needed to operate our business and as described below:

  • Service providers that help us deliver the Site and our services (such as hosting, email, and SMS messaging platforms), under written agreements that restrict their use of the information.
  • Counterparties to a transaction (for example, agents, title companies, or attorneys) when reasonably necessary to discuss or complete a transaction you are involved in.
  • Legal and safety disclosures when required by law, subpoena, or to protect our rights, property, or the safety of others.
  • Business transfers in connection with a merger, sale, or reorganization of our business, subject to customary confidentiality.

As noted above, we do not share phone numbers or SMS opt-in data with third parties for marketing or promotional purposes.

5. Data Retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide our services, maintain records of consent (including SMS opt-in and opt-out), comply with our legal obligations, and resolve disputes.

6. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect the information we collect. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Your Choices

  • You may decline to provide information, though some features (like our contact form) require it.
  • You can opt out of SMS messages at any time by replying STOP.
  • You can contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of information we hold about you.

8. California Privacy Rights (CCPA / CPRA)

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act and California Privacy Rights Act provide you with certain rights regarding your personal information, including:

  • The right to know what categories of personal information we collect and how we use and disclose it;
  • The right to request access to, or deletion of, personal information we have collected from you;
  • The right to correct inaccurate personal information;
  • The right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information — Ikhousings LLC does not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined under California law;
  • The right not to be discriminated against for exercising any of these rights.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the information below. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
