CMS reserves the right to remove any content that is deemed inappropriate, obscene, slanderous, or malicious and may block users that contribute such content. Remember that CMS’s website, community, and social media channels are public forums. Any information you share may be viewed by others. By posting content to CMS’s website, community, or social media, you grant us permission to display, modify, reproduce, and distribute this content without compensation.

By participating in CMS’s social media channels, you release CMS from any liability associated therewith and agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless CMS against any damages, losses, liabilities, judgments, costs, or expenses arising out of a claim by a third party relating to any posts you have made.

COMPLIANCE

CMS HOMES LLC is headquartered in the United States. We generally adhere to laws in the U.S. and attempt to follow rules to protect the personal information of all of our visitors. Our intention is to always be in compliance with U.S. and international laws concerning data privacy. This Privacy Policy is intended to comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) of the European Union, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as well as any other privacy regulations which may be applicable.

DISCLAIMER/ SECURITY:

We implement commercially reasonable security measures to protect your information. When you provide Personal Information such as your name, email, or credit card information, we use third-party products and Sites to secure or store your information. Sensitive information (such as credit card data) is encrypted and transmitted in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a lock icon in the address bar and looking for “https://” at the beginning of the address of the web page. The Personal Information you provide when using the Sites is not stored on our servers or computer systems.

However, due to the open nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee that communication between you and us, and between us and you, will be free from unauthorized access by third parties. No data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Consequently, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you provide. Any information that you provide is done at your own risk.

If we learn of a data security breach we may attempt to notify you electronically so that you can take appropriate protective steps. By using the Sites or providing Personal Information, you agree to receive electronic communications regarding security, privacy, and administrative issues relating to your use of the Sites. We may also post a notice via the Sites if a security breach occurs. You are responsible for ensuring we have an up-to-date active and deliverable e-mail address for you, and for periodically visiting our Website and this privacy policy to check for any changes.

Depending on where you live, you may have a legal right to receive written notice of a data privacy or security breach. If you have reason to believe that your Personal Information has been compromised through use of our Sites, please notify us by emailing [email protected].
