Section 1: INTRODUCTION AND SCOPE
1.1 Privacy Policy Overview
This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how Augrented ("Augrented," "Company," "we," "us," or "our"), collects, uses, processes, stores, shares, and protects personal information obtained through the Augrented platform, website, mobile applications, and related services (collectively, the "Platform" or "Services").
This Policy applies to all users of the Platform, including Consumer Users who access services for personal use and Business Users who utilize Platform services for commercial purposes. The Policy governs personal information collection regardless of how users access the Platform, including through web browsers, mobile applications, application programming interfaces (APIs), or other technological means.
Important Clarification Regarding Property-Related Information: This Privacy Policy applies only to personal information collected about Platform users in their capacity as users of our services. It does not apply to information about properties, buildings, or real estate assets that users may own, manage, or control. Property owners, landlords, and property managers who use the Platform do not gain privacy rights under this Policy with respect to publicly available information about properties they own or manage.
Augrented is committed to protecting user privacy and maintaining transparency about data practices. This Policy explains user rights regarding personal information, describes the legal bases for data processing, outlines data security measures, and provides information about how users can exercise control over their personal information.
The Platform aggregates multifamily real estate data from public sources, generates predictive analytics through machine learning, provides AI-generated property analyses, and facilitates user-generated content including building reviews. Each of these functions involves different types of data collection and processing, which are detailed throughout this Policy.
1.2 Integration with Terms of Service
This Privacy Policy is incorporated by reference into Augrented's Terms and Conditions ("Terms") and should be read in conjunction with those Terms. In case of conflicts between this Policy and the Terms regarding privacy matters, this Policy shall control. However, the Terms govern other aspects of the user relationship, including service usage, intellectual property rights, and legal liability.
Users must agree to both this Privacy Policy and the Terms to access and use Platform services. Modifications to this Policy follow procedures similar to Terms modifications, with appropriate notice provided to users and continued Platform usage constituting acceptance of privacy practice changes.
1.3 Modifications to This Policy
Augrented reserves the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time to reflect changes in data practices, legal requirements, business operations, or service offerings. Material changes to data collection, use, or sharing practices will be communicated through multiple channels to ensure user awareness.
When we make material changes to this Policy, we will notify users by:
- Posting the updated Policy on the Platform with a revised "Last Updated" date
- Sending email notifications to users who have provided email addresses
- Displaying prominent notices on the Platform
- Such other methods as appropriate under the circumstances
Material changes to this Policy become effective thirty (30) days after notice is provided, giving users time to review changes and make informed decisions about continued Platform use. Non-material changes, such as clarifications or administrative updates, become effective immediately upon posting.
Users who do not accept Policy modifications may discontinue Platform use and delete their accounts. Continued use after the effective date of modifications constitutes acceptance of the revised Policy.
