The Oaks of Orangeburg, LLC (together with its divisions, affiliates, subsidiaries and related companies, collectively, “The Oaks”) have created this privacy policy (this “Privacy Policy”) in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to consumer privacy. The Oaks recognizes the importance of protecting the privacy of personal and financial information you may provide

When you access our Site, opt to fill out an information submission form, or otherwise provide The Oaks with your personal information, such as your name, address, email address, or phone number, you give The Oaks your consent to process and use such submitted information in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy. The following describes the general information-gathering and dissemination practices for our Websites, including those associated with specific The Oaks communities, as well as those our affiliates, subsidiaries, and divisions.

We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time by posting amended terms on this Site. Your continued use after such notice indicates your acceptance of the amended Privacy Policy. You should check this Privacy Policy periodically for modifications by referencing the effective date posted above.
Collection of Personal Information
The Oaks, and its agents and representatives, collects personal information when you fill out an online form that is submitted to The Oaks via a The Oaks Site, including, but not limited to, those forms requesting information about The Oaks or any of our communities, or requests for someone at The Oaks to contact you. The submission forms require you to provide contact information (such as name and e-mail address), and in some cases ask for other optional information (such as your phone number, home address and contact preferences).
Use and Disclosure of Personal Information
The Oaks uses the information from the submission forms to send you information about our company, our properties, as well as to contact you when necessary. You may opt-out of receiving future mailings or e-mails in accordance with the “Opt-Out” section below. The Oaks may share your personal information with our affiliates and subsidiaries in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Otherwise, The Oaks may share your personal information only under the following circumstances:
Agents. The Oaks employs other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf (e.g., creating and maintaining the The Oaks Site, sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance and providing customer service) (collectively, “Agents”). Our Agents will have access to personally identifiable information solely to perform their functions and provide their services to The Oaks, and for no other purpose.
Business Transfers. As The Oaks continues to develop our business, The Oaks may sell or buy assets. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets. Thus, if The Oaks or a subsidiary controls, sells substantially all of its assets, or is acquired by another entity, customer information may be one of the transferred assets and you agree that you consent to such transfer.
Protection of The Oaks and Others. The Oaks releases account and other personal information when such release is necessary to comply with the law; enforce or apply our Terms + Conditions or other agreements; protect the rights, property, or safety of The Oaks and our users; or in connection with a legal claim or proceeding. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations as part of our efforts to prevent fraud and identity theft.
Collection, Use, and Disclosure of Non-Personal Information
“Non-Personal Information” contains nothing that could identify you personally. The Oaks may collect such Non-Personal Information, such as demographic and profile data, through the The Oaks Site. The Oaks may aggregate Non-Personal Information and share it with our affiliated companies and other third parties.
Security
The Oaks uses physical, logical, and procedural security measures to protect the information you provide to The Oaks. However, while The Oaks uses commercially reasonable steps to protect the personal information you provide to The Oaks from unauthorized access, use or disclosure, you accept that no Internet data transmission can be guaranteed to be secure from access by unintended recipients.
Accuracy and Retention
You are entitled to request access to and correction of all personal data you provide to The Oaks, or to remove your name from The Oaks’s contact list at any time by contacting us. If you choose to pay your rent or other expenses via a The Oaks Site, you will be required to provide The Oaks with your credit card and billing information as part of the transaction.
Opt-Out
In order to opt-out of future e-mails on a given topic, you should click on the UNSUBSCRIBE link that is available at the bottom of each message. This will halt future communications for that specific function. The Oaks will process your opt-out request promptly, but it may take up to three weeks for the request to be processed through our systems and you may receive communications from The Oaks during that period. To re-subscribe, you may return to the relevant Site and resubmit the request form.
IP Address
The Oaks uses your Internet protocol (IP) address to help diagnose problems with our server, as well as to administer the The Oaks Site. Your IP address is used to help identify you and to gather broad demographic information. The Oaks may use your IP address to help protect ourselves and our partners from fraud. For system administration purposes, The Oaks also logs IP server addresses and catalogues traffic patterns through the The Oaks Site. However, The Oaks does not link this information to users’ personal information.
