Privacy Policy
Last Updated: July 1, 2026
Introduction
Need Section 8 Housing and our related companies bring you content on our Website and through email. We also run a marketing and data company. Here’s what that means: we gather information to help advertisers reach the right people through online ads, apps, email, phone marketing, and other advertising methods. As part of this work, we collect, share with partners, and sell information about individual consumers. We also provide services that show you ads based on your behavior across different websites and apps.
In this privacy policy, we describe the personal information you provide and that we gather when you use Need Section 8 Housing, and we explain our practices for collecting, using, keeping, and sharing your information. You can learn more about our website by reviewing our terms of service.
Take time to carefully read this policy to learn about our practices concerning your personal information. You have a choice: if you disagree with our policies and practices, simply don’t use our website or join our email list. By choosing to access or use this website or any of our other services, you’re consenting to this privacy policy.
Coverage Of This Policy And Other Websites And Services:
The practices of third parties regarding their use of your personal information are beyond the scope of this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy and our privacy practices do not extend and may differ from those of third party websites that can be accessed through links from this website. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any websites you access through links from Need Section 8 Housing.
How We Collect Your Personal Information:
Through this website, we gather information you voluntarily provide, including your name, email address, phone number, mailing address, and any information submitted on an inquiry form. The information you provide may be combined with additional data obtained from affiliates and marketing or advertising partners, along with other third-party data providers. Some of these providers are entities that have obtained your personal information from their own services. We also automatically collect certain information using cookies and other tracking technologies to support analytics and advertising. See below for more information.
Categories of Personal Data We Collect:
“Personal information” means any information processed by the Company, regardless of medium, that identifies, relates to, describes, or is reasonably capable of being associated with a specific consumer or household, either directly or indirectly.
Subscription to the Need Section 8 Housing requires the submission of certain personal information, such as your name, date of birth, street address, e-mail address, and phone number. We also collect information via cookies and similar technologies, including IP address, imprecise geolocation (inferred from your IP address), device identifiers, timestamps, browsing patterns, and click-through interactions. We may obtain additional advertising-related information from data brokers or public databases, including demographic data, interests, prior locations, or purchase history. Information about your privacy rights is provided below.
California law mandates disclosure of the types of personal information collected during the last year. Accordingly, in the past twelve (12) months, we have collected identifiers; personal information categories listed in the California Customer Records Statute (Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.80(e)); protected characteristics under California or U.S. federal law; internet or similar network activity information; commercial information; professional or employment-related information; imprecise geolocation data; and inferences derived from other personal information. This information is sold and shared with our affiliated companies and third-party partners for marketing and advertising purposes. You have the right to opt out of such sale or sharing at any time by visiting here or calling 855-973-4228.
Handling of Sensitive Information
Sensitive Personal Information—such as data concerning race or ethnicity, religion, precise location, LGBTQ+ status, health information, financial account data, or citizenship—is not directly collected by us. Nonetheless, information about your online activity may be collected automatically through technologies like cookies, which could indirectly indicate interest in sensitive subject matter or association with a sensitive group. For example, accessing content related to specific ethnic groups or health topics may imply such interests. These inferences are not made by us directly, but may be made by our affiliated companies or other third parties that receive personal information. If applicable laws require consent for such processing, our affiliates will not generate sensitive inferences. We do not collect or use personal information about children under 16.
How We Use Personal Information
We utilize the personal information we collect to send you newsletters or other content that you request and to send you marketing messages by email or through other marketing channels. We also share your personal information with our affiliates and partner companies who may also send you marketing messages by email or other channels. You can opt out here. Our use of personal information for marketing purposes is called “cross context behavioral advertising” under some privacy laws.
Sharing Personal Information
We sell and/or share your personal information with our affiliates and partners for marketing purposes, including cross context behavioral advertising. We also share this information with companies who provide services for us, including services related to cross context behavioral advertising, analytics, fraud detection, web hosting, data security, or similar services. We contract with any third parties who have access to the personal information we share to ensure that they use appropriate information security measures and comply with laws. We may also share personal information if required by law (e.g. in response to a subpoena or court order), or to protect a person’s health or safety.
We may share personal information when required to do so by law, including with law enforcement agencies, regulators, courts, government authorities, or other third parties, to comply with legal obligations, respond to lawful requests, protect the rights, safety, or security of individuals, or enforce our terms of use and related agreements, including billing and collection matters. Personal information may also be disclosed in connection with a corporate transaction, such as a merger, sale, reorganization, dissolution, bankruptcy, or similar event, where user information is transferred as part of the business assets.
We may share personal information with third parties when you have agreed to such sharing, including for purposes explained to you at the time you submit the information or described in this privacy policy.
Personalized Advertising, Data Sharing, and Analytics
Third-party advertising and analytics services companies may use information gathered at this site to place advertisements on other websites, perform tracking and reporting functions for those sites and our advertisements, and place third-party advertisements on our Website. These third parties may collect information about the websites you have viewed and advertisements with which you have interacted. Other information that may be collected include your IP address, date and time of interaction, your Internet Service Provider (ISP), and the browser you use to visit this Website. This information may be combined with personal information like your name or email address and may be used to deliver advertising from us or from other companies, through email or through social media sites (known as “cross-context behavioral advertising”). This combined information may also be used to improve our understanding of your interactions with our Website and advertisements.
Cookies And Similar Technology
This website utilizes cookies, pixels, and other automated technologies to: (1) guard this site against online threats, (2) track and analyze how users interact with our website, (3) show you personalized content and advertisements, and (4) analyze how (or whether) you interact with advertisements or other content and communications. Cookies are small computer files that are stored on your browser to serve as unique identifiers so that your browser can be recognized at websites where our pixel is deployed. We do not track every site or page you visit on the Internet. You can restrict or delete the cookies currently on your browser at any time using the settings in your browser. If you use a browser-based “do not track” setting, this may cause an opt-out cookie to be set on your browser to prevent ongoing data collection. If you later delete this opt-out cookie, you may need to opt out again to prevent automated data collection.
Our Website uses automated tools to collect usage data, including cookies, Flash cookies, and web beacons. Cookies are small files stored on your device that support Website operations. You may disable cookies in your browser, but certain Website features may become unavailable if you do so.
Flash cookies are used on some parts of the Website to remember preferences and analyze navigation patterns. These cookies are managed separately through Adobe’s Flash Player settings.
Web beacons, also known as pixel tags or clear gifs, may be included on our Website and in our emails to track page visits, email opens, content popularity, and Website performance metrics.
Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track Preferences
Global Privacy Control (“GPC”) signals and other universal opt-out preference signals are recognized by us as valid requests to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information. When detected, we will automatically opt you out without requiring additional steps from you. Tracking every site you visit on the internet is not our intent. As noted above, you may block or delete cookies using your browser’s cookie settings. If you choose to opt out or activate a “Do Not Track” signal, including GPC, an opt-out cookie will be set on your browser to restrict certain cookie-based data collection. Removing that cookie or changing your GPC settings may cause automated collection to restart.”

Please note, we cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or your authority to make the request. As such, a verifiable consumer request must:

- Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.
Making a verifiable consumer request does not require that you to create an account with us.
