PRIVACY POLICY
Introduction
Welcome to the www.ulcoleman.com website (the “Site”), which is owned and operated by U.L. Coleman Properties, LLC d/b/a U.L. Coleman Properties (“U.L. Coleman Properties” or “we” or “us”). We are committed to protecting your privacy. We have established this privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) and are providing it to you so that you can understand the manner in which we collect and use your information and the efforts we use to protect it. Please note that this policy is for this Site and does not apply to third-party advertisers or third-party websites linked to our Site. Nor does it apply to the U.L. Coleman Properties.com website or the activities of U.L. Coleman Properties in its own capacity. Please check the privacy policies on those websites for more information.
U.L. Coleman Properties has created this Site for the company associated with this Site, UL Coleman Properties. As a result, UL Coleman Properties acts as “data controller” for the Site and U.L. Coleman Properties acts as “data processor” for the Site. In other words, UL Coleman Properties determines what data is collected from the Site and for what purpose and U.L. Coleman Properties merely processes and stores such data. U.L. Coleman Properties relies on UL Coleman Properties’ legal basis for data collection when processing data collected through the Site. UL Coleman Properties’ legal basis arises from UL Coleman Properties’ need to evaluate and process rental applicants, provide property management services, and to advance UL Coleman Properties’ other legitimate interests, as described more fully in Section 2. UL Coleman Properties also relies on your consent in some circumstances as the basis for processing your personal information.
This Privacy Policy is designed to address only U.L. Coleman Properties’ data practices with respect to activities conducted via the Site. U.L. Coleman Properties may occasionally partner with third parties, such as Google Analytics, in the course of processing data via the Site. U.L. Coleman Properties is committed to ensuring that it has appropriate terms in place with such partners so that both U.L. Coleman Properties and others comply with applicable laws. This Privacy Policy does not cover information that is exempted from privacy policy notification requirements, including information about employees, contractors, job applicants and information processed exclusively in the context of a business person acting in a business capacity.

The Site may use “cookies” to help personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize Site pages, or register with or provide information to the Site, a cookie helps U.L. Coleman Properties to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same Site page, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the features that you customized.
This Site uses Google Analytics (and in the future may use other similar sites or services), a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”), to better assist Century Sales & Management, LLC in understanding how the Site is used. Google Analytics will place cookies on your computer that will generate information that we select about your use of the Site, including your computer’s IP address. That information will be transmitted to and stored by Google. The information will be used for the purpose of evaluating consumer use of the Site, compiling reports on Site activity for Century Sales & Management, LLC’s use, and providing other services relating to Site activity and usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. The use of cookies by Google Analytics is covered by Google’s privacy policy.
You can choose to delete existing cookies, allow or block cookies, and set preferences for certain websites in your browser’s settings. Please note you may not be able to use the full functionality of the Site if you choose to block all cookies.
- Third Party Advertising and Remarketing
In addition to using cookies and related technologies as described above, U.L. Coleman Properties may also permit certain third party companies to help us tailor advertising that we think may be of interest to users and to collect and use other data about user activities on the Site. These companies may deliver ads that might also place cookies and otherwise track user behavior. These companies may use information about user behavior in order to provide customized advertisements across various products and services. In the course of providing these products and services or placing advertisements, these third party companies may place or recognize a unique cookie on your computer, and may record information to these cookies based upon your activities on the Site and on third party websites. Each of these companies uses this cookie information according to its own privacy and security policies. Third party companies that U.L. Coleman Properties may use for these purposes are Google, Facebook, and/or Bing. Users may opt out of use of cookies by visiting Google’s, Facebook’s, and/or Bing’s advertising opt-out page.

- GDPR
The General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR”), which became effective on May 25, 2018, creates consistent data protection rules across Europe. It applies to all companies that process data about individuals in the European Union. The GDPR imposes responsibilities on “data controllers” and “data processors.” A company is a “data controller” when it has the responsibility of determining why and how personal data is processed. A company is a “data processor” when it processes personal data on behalf of a data controller. While Century Sales & Management, LLC operates as a data controller, there are some instances in which U.L. Coleman Properties operates as a data processor, particularly when working with customers and other third parties. To the extent U.L. Coleman Properties acts as a data processor, U.L. Coleman Properties is committed to complying with the GDPR’s specific requirements for data processors and we will work with customers and to update any related privacy policies on other websites.
This Policy is designed to address only U.L. Coleman Properties’ data practices with respect to activities conducted by U.L. Coleman Properties on its own behalf or through the Site. For those activities, U.L. Coleman Properties acts as a data processor and may appoint service providers to act as data processor on its behalf, such as Google Analytics, and as further set forth herein. U.L. Coleman Properties is committed to ensuring that it has appropriate terms in place with such partners so that both U.L. Coleman Properties and the partners comply with their respective requirements under the GDPR.
Data controllers must have a legal basis to process your personal information. Century Sales & Management, LLC’s legal basis to process your information arises from Century Sales & Management, LLC’s need to use your information to provide you with the services and customer support and to advance Century Sales & Management, LLC’s other legitimate interests (including operating the Site, conducting direct and indirect marketing, etc.), as discussed more fully in this Policy. Century Sales & Management, LLC also relies on your consent in some circumstances as the basis for processing your personal information.
If you are located in the European Union you may have certain rights under the GDPR. These may include the right (i) to request access and obtain a copy of your personal information, (ii) to request rectification or erasure, (iii) to restrict the processing of your personal information, and (iv) if applicable, to data portability. In certain circumstances, you also have the right to object to the processing of your personal information. To make such a request, please contact us at jbowen@ulcoleman.com. We will consider and act upon any request in accordance with applicable data protection laws. If you are a resident of the European Union and you believe we are unlawfully processing your personal information, you also have the right to file a complaint with your local data protection supervisory authority. You can find their contact details here.
