Last updated: July 23, 2026
Overview
The Darvishian Group ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices you have. It applies to our website, our contact and inquiry forms, and any SMS text messages we send you.
1. What Personal Information We Collect
We collect information you voluntarily provide to us, including through our website forms and when you request information or services. This may include:
- Contact details: full name, email address, phone number (including mobile number), and city/state.
- Inquiry details: the type of inquiry (buy, sell, lease, invest, join our team, or general), and any message you include.
- Professional details: for recruiting inquiries, your real estate license status, background, years of experience, LinkedIn profile, and availability.
- SMS consent: your explicit opt-in to receive text messages from us, along with the mobile number you provide.
- Technical data: information collected automatically, such as IP address, browser type, and pages visited, through cookies and similar technologies.
2. How We Use Your Personal Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to your inquiries and provide the commercial real estate services you request.
- Send you information about properties, listings, market updates, and opportunities relevant to your inquiry.
- Send SMS text messages — such as appointment reminders, follow-ups, and service-related notifications — to the mobile number you provide, but only with your explicit consent.
- Process recruiting applications and schedule introductory calls.
- Improve our website, services, and communications.
- Comply with legal obligations and protect our rights.
3. Who We Share Your Personal Information With
We do not sell your personal information. We may share it only in the following limited circumstances:
- Service providers: trusted third parties that help us operate our business — such as SMS delivery providers, email platforms, and hosting services — under contracts that require them to protect your information and use it only for the services they perform for us.
- Legal compliance: when required by law, court order, or to protect our rights, property, or safety.
- Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of our business, subject to the same confidentiality obligations.
We do not share your personal information with unaffiliated third parties for their own marketing purposes.
4. SMS Text Messaging
With your explicit consent, we may send SMS text messages to the mobile number you provide. Message frequency varies based on your engagement. Standard message and data rates may apply.
SMS consent is not shared with third parties.
Your SMS consent and mobile information are not shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing purposes. They are used solely by The Darvishian Group to deliver the messages you have opted in to receive.
To opt out of SMS messages at any time, reply "STOP" to any message we send. For help, reply "HELP" or contact us using the details below.
We may use a third-party SMS delivery provider to transmit messages on our behalf, but that provider acts only as a service provider to us and is not permitted to use your information for any other purpose.
5. Data Retention & Security
We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy or as required by law. We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
6. Your Choices & Rights
- Opt out of SMS: reply "STOP" to any text message, or contact us to remove your number.
- Opt out of emails: use the unsubscribe link in any email or contact us.
- Access or update: you may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information by contacting us.
- Cookies: most browsers let you control cookies through their settings; disabling them may affect site functionality.
7. Children's Privacy
Our services are not directed to individuals under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us so we can delete it.
8. Changes to This Policy
