Why it matters

This is among the most sensitive personal and financial data a consumer can share, and its collection, storage, and potential sharing with partners warrants careful attention.

Consumer impact

Redfin collects a broad range of personal data including geolocation, browsing behavior, financial information, and phone call recordings, and shares this data with real estate partners, advertisers, and affiliated companies. Users who become real estate clients provide particularly sensitive financial and transactional data that is retained and used beyond the immediate transaction. You can opt out of data sale or targeted advertising and request deletion of your data by visiting your Redfin account settings or submitting a request through Redfin's privacy rights portal.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Delete Your Data
    Log in to your Redfin account and navigate to Account Settings to submit a data deletion request. You may also contact Redfin's privacy team directly through their privacy rights request process described in the policy.
