The Honed Group, LLC ("Honed," "we," "our," or "us") operates Honedgroup.com (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit the Site or submit an inquiry to us.

1. Information We Collect

Information You Provide

When you submit an inquiry through the Site, we collect:

  • Your name and contact information (email address, phone number)
  • The address or listing URL of the short-term rental property you want us to assess
  • Any other information you choose to include in your inquiry

  • IP address and general geographic location
  • Browser type, device type, and operating system
  • Pages visited, time spent on pages, and referral sources
  • Cookie and tracking data as described below

Information From Third-Party Sources

In the course of evaluating a property for a potential engagement, we may collect information about a property and its owner from publicly available sources, including public property records, county assessor databases, and commercial real property data services. This research is conducted independently of the Site inquiry process and is subject to the terms of those third-party data sources.

We use the information we collect to:

  • Respond to your inquiry and assess whether your property may be a candidate for a Honed engagement
  • Conduct property research and prepare a preliminary opportunity analysis
  • Communicate with you about our services and any proposed engagement
  • Send marketing or follow-up communications (with your consent where required by law)
  • Operate, maintain, and improve the Site
  • Comply with applicable legal obligations

3. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with:

  • Service providers and vendors who assist us in operating the Site or delivering our services (e.g., website hosting, analytics, email delivery), subject to confidentiality obligations
  • Professional advisors (attorneys, accountants) under confidentiality obligations
  • Law enforcement or government authorities when required by applicable law

We do not share your personal information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.

4. Cookies and Tracking

The Site uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to understand how visitors use the Site and to improve your experience. You may disable cookies through your browser settings, though doing so may affect certain Site functionality.

We may use analytics tools such as Google Analytics to collect aggregated, non-identifiable usage data. Google's privacy practices are described at policies.google.com/privacy.

5. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, to maintain business records, and to comply with legal obligations. Inquiry information for properties where no engagement is entered into is generally retained for up to three years.
