Last updated: November 13, 2026
This page explains how PropTech (proptech.tued.online, "the Website") handles personal data of visitors located in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, in line with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and similar laws. It supplements our Privacy Policy and should be read together with it.
PropTech is an informational and educational website. We publish articles written by contributing writers about real estate technology, including AI tools, CRM software, and investing platforms. We do not run user accounts, online stores, or paid services, so the amount of personal data we handle is limited.
1. Who Is Responsible for Your Data
The operator of the Website acts as the data controller for personal data that we collect directly, such as messages sent through the contact form. For data collected automatically by third-party services, such as advertising and hosting providers, those providers may act as independent controllers or as processors under their own policies.
You can contact us about any data protection matter at onlinetued@gmail.com or through our Contact Us page. We have not appointed a Data Protection Officer because our activities do not require one, but we take privacy questions seriously and handle them promptly.
2. What Personal Data We Process
Depending on how you use the Website, we or our service providers may process the following categories of data:
- Contact data: your name, email address, and the content of messages you send us.
- Comment data: name, email, and text you submit in a comment, if comments are enabled.
- Technical data: IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring page, and pages visited.
- Cookie and advertising identifiers: identifiers placed by advertising and analytics partners, where permitted by law and your consent.
We do not intentionally collect special categories of personal data, such as health information, political opinions, or religious beliefs. Please do not send such information to us.
3. Why We Process Data and Our Legal Bases
Under the GDPR, we must have a lawful basis for each type of processing. The table below summarizes the main ones.
| Purpose | Data involved | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|
| Replying to your messages | Contact data | Legitimate interests, and steps you request before any agreement |
| Operating and securing the Website | Technical data | Legitimate interests |
| Understanding how the Website is used | Technical and analytics data | Consent, where required, or legitimate interests |
| Showing advertisements | Cookie and advertising identifiers | Consent |
| Meeting legal obligations | Any relevant data | Legal obligation |
4. Consent and Cookies
Where the law requires consent, such as for non-essential cookies and personalized advertising in the EEA and the UK, we rely on your consent. A consent notice may appear when you first visit the Website. You can accept, refuse, or change your choices at any time through that notice or through your browser settings.
Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing that took place before you withdrew. You can also manage personalized advertising preferences through Google's Ads Settings and through industry opt-out tools such as youronlinechoices.eu.
5. Who We Share Data With
We do not sell personal data. We share data only with trusted service providers that help us run the Website, including:
- Google, which provides the Blogger hosting platform and may provide advertising and analytics services;
- a third-party form service that delivers contact form messages to our email;
- advertising partners that display or measure advertisements;
- public authorities, when we are legally required to disclose information.
These providers process data under their own privacy terms. We encourage you to read their policies to understand how they handle your information.
6. International Data Transfers
Some of our service providers, including Google, may process data outside the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland, for example in the United States. Where this happens, transfers rely on safeguards recognized under data protection law, such as adequacy decisions, standard contractual clauses, or other approved mechanisms put in place by the provider. By using the Website, you understand that your data may be handled in countries with different data protection standards.
7. How Long We Keep Data
We keep personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this notice.
- Contact messages are normally kept only for as long as needed to answer you and to handle any follow-up, and are then deleted.
- Technical and analytics data is retained according to the settings and policies of the relevant service providers.
- Data we must keep to meet legal obligations is retained for the period required by law.
8. Your Rights Under the GDPR
If the GDPR applies to you, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:
- Right of access: to ask whether we process your data and to receive a copy.
- Right to rectification: to have inaccurate or incomplete data corrected.
- Right to erasure: to ask us to delete your data in certain circumstances, often called the right to be forgotten.
- Right to restriction: to ask us to limit how we use your data in certain cases.
- Right to data portability: to receive data you provided in a structured, commonly used format, where applicable.
- Right to object: to object to processing based on legitimate interests, and to object to direct marketing at any time.
- Right to withdraw consent: at any time, where processing is based on consent.
- Rights related to automated decisions: we do not make decisions based solely on automated processing that have legal or similarly significant effects on you.
9. How to Exercise Your Rights
To exercise any of these rights, email us at onlinetued@gmail.com or use our Contact Us page. Please describe your request and the email address or details linked to your data so that we can locate it. We may ask for information to verify your identity, to protect your data from unauthorized disclosure.
We aim to respond within one month. If your request is complex or we receive many requests, we may extend this period as permitted by law, and we will tell you if that happens. Exercising your rights is generally free of charge, although we may refuse or charge a reasonable fee for requests that are clearly unfounded or excessive.
10. Right to Lodge a Complaint
If you believe we have handled your personal data unlawfully, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the data protection supervisory authority in the country where you live, where you work, or where the alleged infringement took place. We would appreciate the chance to address your concerns first, so please contact us before approaching an authority.
11. Security of Your Data
We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal data. These include relying on a reputable hosting platform, using HTTPS where available, limiting access to our email inbox, and avoiding unnecessary collection of data. No system is perfectly secure, and if a data breach occurs that is likely to put your rights at risk, we will take appropriate steps and notify affected individuals and authorities as the law requires.
12. Children
The Website is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under the age of 16 in the EEA, or under the age set by local law. If you believe that a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it.
13. Visitors from the Gulf Region
Several Gulf countries, including the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, have adopted their own personal data protection laws. These laws share many principles with the GDPR, such as lawful and transparent processing, limiting data to what is necessary, and giving individuals rights over their information. We apply the same careful approach to all visitors, and you may contact us to make a request regardless of where you live.
14. Informational Nature of the Website
PropTech provides educational and informational articles prepared by contributing writers. Our content is not professional, legal, financial, or real estate advice. For more information, please see our Disclaimer and our Terms and Conditions.
