Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 15, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Step One Source ("Step One Source," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit steponesource.com (the "Site") or contact us. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.
1.Information We Collect
Information you give us. When you fill out our inquiry form or email us, we collect the information you choose to provide — typically your name, company, email address, phone number, and any lot or deal criteria you include.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our Site and hosting provider may automatically collect limited technical information when you visit, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, and the pages you view. This helps us keep the Site running, secure, and improve it over time.
Cookies and similar technologies. The Site may use a small number of cookies or similar technologies for basic functionality and, if enabled, analytics. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling them may affect how parts of the Site work.
2.How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- respond to your inquiry and communicate with you about a potential transaction;
- evaluate lots and follow up regarding buying, contracting, or assigning an interest in real property;
- operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Site;
- keep records and comply with our legal and regulatory obligations; and
- detect and prevent fraud or misuse.
We do not sell your personal information.
3.How the Site & Inquiry Form Work
Our Site is hosted on Netlify, and our inquiry form is processed using Netlify Forms. When you submit the form, your information is transmitted to and stored by our hosting provider on our behalf and forwarded to us by email so we can respond. These providers process your information under their own terms and privacy practices.
4.Phone Calls & Text Messages
If you provide your phone number, you agree that we may contact you by phone or text message about your inquiry or a potential transaction. Message and data rates may apply. You can opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP, and you can ask us to stop contacting you at any time by emailing cj@steponesource.com.
5.How We Share Information
We share your information only as needed to run our business, including with:
- Service providers who help us operate the Site and our business (for example, hosting, email, form processing, and analytics providers), who may access your information only to perform services for us;
- Transaction parties such as title companies, escrow agents, attorneys, or a buyer or assignee, where reasonably necessary to evaluate or complete a transaction you are involved in; and
- Legal and safety recipients when we believe disclosure is required by law, legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Step One Source or others.
If our business is ever sold or reorganized, information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
6.Data Retention
We keep your information for as long as needed to respond to you, carry out or document a transaction, and meet our legal, tax, and recordkeeping obligations. When we no longer need it, we take reasonable steps to delete or de-identify it.
7.Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the information we collect. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. You share information with us at your own risk, and you should avoid sending sensitive information (such as financial account or Social Security numbers) through the inquiry form or email.
8.Your Choices & Rights
You can:
- ask us what personal information we hold about you;
- ask us to correct or delete your information; and
- ask us to stop contacting you.
To make a request, email cj@steponesource.com. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under your state's privacy laws — for example, California residents may have rights under the CCPA/CPRA to know, delete, correct, and limit certain uses of their personal information, and to not be discriminated against for exercising those rights. We will honor applicable rights and will not sell your personal information.
9.Third-Party Links
The Site may link to other websites we don't control. This Privacy Policy applies only to the Site, not to third-party sites. Please review the privacy policies of any site you visit.
10.Children's Privacy
The Site is intended for adults and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we will delete it.
11.Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. Your continued use of the Site after any change means you accept the revised policy.
