Examples include your name, postal addresses (home and office), email address, telephone and fax numbers, Social Security number, date of birth, financial account information, and any other information you provide us, as well as information regarding your activities online, such as social media postings and interactions with our Website. The types of personal information we collect depends on the community you’re looking at or live in, how you interact with us (e.g., whether you visit our Website), or the services you request. Our computer servers automatically log your IP address, the pages you click on and how long you spend there, and the web page you came from and go to next; we also save the data you type in when you request us to send you brochures or applications.
We might also collect personal information about you from third parties or other sources, such as lead partners, credit reporting agencies, insurance companies, and real estate professionals.

If you choose to participate in the Mortgage Choice program and use the CompARE technology, you may be asked to provide information such as your monthly income and anticipated down payment. In addition, if you choose to use Charity Title Agency, LLC for title insurance, you may be asked to provide information related to your mortgage loan transaction. Please visit our Financial Privacy Notice found at beazer.com/financialprivacy for the privacy terms governing the collection of financial information, which are incorporated herein by reference. Our financial privacy notice differs in several important respects from this Notice.
Information Collected Through Technology. Beazer Homes collects information using technology, such as IP addresses and cookies. Standard features in Internet browser software such as "cookies" allow Websites to track certain user activities by assigning each of our visitors a unique number that resides on your computer. Beazer Homes uses cookies to make the Website more interesting and useful.
Beazer Homes’ cookies are limited to our Websites only. In addition to Beazer Homes’ cookies, various third parties may also place cookies on your computer's hard drive when you visit our Websites. Beazer Homes also uses partners (e.g., advertising companies, like Google and Meta) to serve ads to you while you are visiting other websites. These partners may collect information about your visits to our Website and other websites and/or apps in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you. Among other cookies, we use Google Analytics. You can learn more about how those cookies work by visiting “How Google Uses Data When You Use Our Partners' Sites or Apps,” located at www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.

Beazer Homes does not respond to Do Not Track (“DNT”) signals. Some third party sites, including third-party advertising companies that Beazer Homes has a relationship with, however, do keep track of your browsing activities when they deliver content to you, which enables them to tailor what they present to you.

We may provide your personal information to trusted companies pursuant to a written agreement with them when we jointly market their services to you.

The written agreement requires that they use your personal information only for the purposes of the joint marketing and that they not disclose it to others.
Marketing. We also disclose personal information to non-affiliated third parties to perform marketing services or functions on our behalf or measure the effectiveness of our marketing efforts.

We reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities that we, in good faith, believe to be unlawful; in the interest of national security or law enforcement activities; other health and safety issues; or as reasonably necessary or appropriate under the circumstances.
