Privacy policy

Who we are

This website is operated by Vanguard Luxury Auctions LLC (“Vanguard,” “we” or “us”). This policy covers vanguardluxuryauctions.com and the information you give us through it.

What we collect

We collect only what you choose to send us:

• When you contact us: your name, email address, phone number if you add it, whether you are a seller, buyer or agent, any property address or area you mention, and your message.
• When you join the private list: your first name, if you add it, and your email address.
• How you found us: the pages of this site you visit, and the website, link or campaign that brought you here.
• Basic technical information: like most websites, our hosting provider records standard server logs, such as IP address, browser type and the pages requested, to keep the site secure and working.

How we use it

• To reply to your inquiry and discuss a sale, purchase or partnership with you.
• To send private previews and auction announcements, if you joined the private list.
• To keep a record of our correspondence with you.
• To understand which of our pages and campaigns lead to inquiries.
• To protect the site against spam and misuse.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own marketing.

Who we share it with

We share information only with the service providers who help us run the site and our business, such as our website host and email provider, and only so they can provide those services to us. We may also disclose information where the law requires it.

Cookies

This site does not use advertising cookies. We set one cookie of our own, which remembers your browser between visits for up to 13 months, so that if you contact us we know how you found us. It is not shared with advertisers. Our typefaces are served by Google Fonts, which receives your IP address when the page loads them.

How long we keep it

We keep inquiries for as long as needed to respond to you and to maintain our business records. You can unsubscribe from the private list at any time, and we will stop sending you emails.

Your choices

You can ask us to show you, correct or delete the information we hold about you, or to stop contacting you. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under state law, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act. To make a request, write to us through our contact page and we will respond within the time the law requires.

Security

We use reasonable safeguards to protect the information you send us. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children

This site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information.

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we will post the new version here with a new effective date.
