Privacy Policy

Who this notice covers

Homes With Niko is the real estate website of Niko Athanasiadis, REALTOR® with Tradewind Properties. This notice covers information handled in connection with this website's inquiry forms, messages, and linked services. It does not replace the privacy notices of websites you visit through external links.

Information you choose to share

When you contact Niko through an inquiry form, you provide your name and at least one contact method (email or telephone number). You may also provide a message and, depending on the form, a preferred area or property city. If you call or email directly, the information you share in that conversation may also be retained.

Please do not include Social Security numbers, bank information, account passwords, or other sensitive details in general website inquiries.

How inquiry information is used

We use the information you provide to answer questions, discuss the real estate services you requested, follow up about your inquiry, maintain related business records, and meet applicable legal obligations. We do not enroll you in a marketing newsletter merely because you submit a website inquiry. Separate marketing communications, including promotional texts, require any permission that applies to that communication.

Website services and outside providers

• Web3Forms: Our website inquiry forms send the information you enter to Web3Forms, which processes the submission and forwards it by email. An online form submission requires a completed security check; if online submission is unavailable, you can use an email link instead.
• hCaptcha: The online forms use hCaptcha to help prevent spam. This service may process technical information about your browser, device, and interaction with its security check, as described in its terms.
• Email: Direct emails and form notifications are delivered to a Gmail address. Your email service and Google's services may process messages to deliver and store them. See Google's Privacy Policy.
• Google Fonts: This site requests fonts from Google's servers. Your browser connects to Google to download those fonts, which involves the transmission of technical information such as an IP address. See Google Fonts' privacy explanation.
• Site hosting: When this website is hosted publicly, the hosting and security services may process basic request information, such as IP address, browser type, and access times, to deliver the site and help protect it. Hosting arrangements will be verified before public launch.

Linked forms and planning tools

Home Value Review: The request link opens a Google Form on a different website. Google processes form responses, and information submitted for a Home Value Review may be received and used by Niko to respond to your request. Review the form's own instructions and Google's privacy notice before providing information.

Sell Now or Wait?: The planning tool runs on a separate site. Its forms and technical services are not part of the inquiry forms on this website. Review any disclosures on that tool before entering information there.

Following an external link does not automatically copy the information typed into an inquiry form on this website to the destination. Other sites may have different privacy practices.

Storage and retention

This website does not currently operate its own lead database. Inquiries can be held in our email records and, when needed to follow up, in a contact-management system. We retain such records for as long as reasonably necessary for the inquiry, business records, and applicable legal requirements. A provider's retention schedule may differ from the period for emails or contact records; see the provider policies linked above.

We take reasonable steps to protect inquiry information, but no online transmission or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.

Your choices and questions

You may contact Niko to ask what inquiry information is held, request a correction, or request deletion when it is appropriate and permitted by law. You can also choose not to use online forms and contact us by telephone instead. If you receive a promotional message, you may ask not to receive similar messages in the future.

Children and policy updates

This website is for people seeking real estate information and services and is not directed to children under 13. We may update this notice when site features or service providers change, with the revised date shown here.
