Compliance with Applicable Law and Commitment to Equal
Housing Opportunities
Buckingham Companies is dedicated to
providing services to and achieving results for its employees, residents and
clients within a business code of conduct that emphasizes high standards of
ethics and compliance with all applicable laws and company published operating
policies and procedures. It is Buckingham’s policy to fully comply with all laws
and regulations that apply to its businesses in each location where it operates.
This includes taking action to achieve equal housing opportunities and, with
that goal in mind, to provide reasonable modifications and accommodations to
afford equal access to housing, facilities and programs offered at each site.
Buckingham encourages and supports an affirmative advertising and marketing
program in which there are no barriers to obtaining housing because of race,
color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, national origin, or any other
legally-protected category. Buckingham does not tolerate discrimination in any
form and adheres to all applicable equal opportunity laws, including those that
prohibit discrimination based on the categories listed above and other
legally-protected categories such as age, parental status, sexual orientation,
political ideology, financial status, and the like. If you need more information
about our policy, you may contact Buckingham Companies. Information about legal
protections relating to housing laws may be obtained by contacting the
applicable local, state or federal government agency.

Legal & Privacy Policy
Welcome
to our website ("Site"). Buckingham Companies ("Buckingham") has created this
notice to ensure that you understand our privacy policies and procedures, what
personal information you must provide if you wish to use the Site and,
ultimately, to ensure you understand how we use personal information.
Information Collected By Buckingham
Buckingham may collect and store personally identifiable information about
persons who visit this Site and voluntarily submit information to Buckingham.
Information obtained in connection with the Site may be intermingled with and
used by us in conjunction with information obtained through sources other than
the Site, including both offline and online sources.
How We Use Your Personal Information
Buckingham
receives and stores the personal information you enter on our website or give us
in other ways. We use this information to respond to requests, process rent
payments or applications and to communicate with you regarding our properties
and services or those of third parties. We do not sell your personally
identifiable information to third parties or mass marketers. Unless you consent
to the disclosure of your personally identifiable information, only we and our
staff, respective affiliates, technical consultants, third party auditors and
other third parties who make our Site available, enhance its functionality, or
provide associated services have access to this information and they are covered
by this policy. Please note that we do reserve the right to transfer your
personally identifiable information and other information to our successors in
business and purchasers of site assets.
Non-Personal Data
In some cases, we may collect
non-personal information, such as the type of internet browser you use, the type
of computer operating system, software and peripherals you use and the domain
name of the web site from which you access our Site. We use this information on
an aggregated basis to operate and enhance our website and improve its
usability. We may share non-personal information with third parties for
advertising, promotional and/or other purposes.
Cookies
We reserve the right to utilize cookie
technology. A cookie is a small data file that certain websites write to your
hard drive when you visit them. A cookie file can contain various types of
information, including a user ID that the site uses to track the pages you have
visited. We may use cookies to enhance your experience on this Site, to
determine user traffic patterns and for other purposes.
Most browsers
are initially set up to accept cookies; however, you can reset your browser to
refuse all cookies or indicate when a cookie is being sent or you can flush your
browser of cookies from time to time. (Note: you may need to consult the help
area of your browser application for instructions.) If you choose to disable
your cookies setting or refuse to accept a cookie, however, you will not be able
to access the Site with the use of your password.
Clickstream
As you use the Internet, a trail of
electronic information is left at each website you visit. This information,
sometimes referred to as "clickstream data," can be collected and stored by a
web site's server. Clickstream data can tell us the type of computer and
browsing software you use and the address of the web site from which you linked
to the Site. We may collect and use clickstream data as a form of aggregate
information to anonymously determine how much time visitors spend on each page
of our Site, how visitors navigate throughout the Site and how we may tailor our
web pages to better meet the needs of tenants and visitors. This information
will be used to improve our Site and our services. Any collection or use of
clickstream data will be anonymous and aggregate, and will not intentionally
contain any personal information.
Security
We are committed to taking reasonable steps to ensure the
security of your information. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data
accuracy, and ensure the appropriate use of information, we have put into place
physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to help safeguard and secure the
information we collect online. However, due to the inherent open nature of the
Internet, we cannot guarantee that communications between you and us or
information stored on the Site or our servers, will be completely free from
unauthorized access by third parties such as hackers and your use of the Site
demonstrates your assumption of this risk. We work to protect the security of
your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
software, which encrypts information you input. You also need to protect your
security by guarding against unauthorized access to your password and to your
computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.
Protection for Children
This Site
is not intended for users under the age of 13, and we have no intention of
collecting personally identifiable information from children (i.e., individuals
under the age of 13). Where appropriate, we take reasonable measures to inform
children not to submit such information to our site or in response to
advertisements. If a child has provided us with personally identifiable
information, that child's parent or guardian should send us a request marked
"Privacy Urgent" to
webmaster@buckingham-co.com if
they would like the information submitted by the child deleted from our
database. We will use all reasonable efforts to delete such information from our
database.
Please note that we reserve the right to access and/or
disclose personal information and non-personal information we gather as required
by courts or administrative agencies and to the extent required to permit us to
investigate suspected fraud, harassment or other violations of any law, rule or
regulation, the Site rules or policies, or the rights of third parties or to
investigate any suspected conduct which Buckingham deems improper.
Your Consent
You may have certain
rights under the Communications Act, Federal Trade Commission Act, and other
state and federal statutes that may apply, and by accepting these terms and
using this Site, you are waiving all of these rights as to collection, use,
disclosure and storage of your personally identifiable and non-personal
information as described above.
This policy and our legal obligations
are subject to the laws of Indiana and the USA, regardless of the location of
any user. Any claims or complaints must be filed in the USA in the State of
Indiana.
We may amend our privacy policy, but if we decide to change our
privacy policy, we will post those changes on this page, so you are always aware
of what information we collect, how we use it and under what circumstances we
may disclose it. Any changes will only apply to information collected after the
change is posted.
