Privacy Policy
Effective Date: September 1, 2026
Irish Hospital Apartments (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting the personal information of visitors to our website. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.
1. Information We Collect
We aim to collect only the information necessary to run our website and connect residents and prospective residents with our services.
- Contact Information. If you reach out to us directly by email, we collect your name, email address, and the content of your message.
- Resident Services Information. Our website links out to our resident portal, a third-party rental management platform, for rental applications, rent payments, and maintenance requests. Any information you submit through that platform – including application details and payment information – is collected and processed directly by that third party under its own privacy policy. We do not receive, store, or process that information ourselves.
- Device & Usage Information. Our hosting provider automatically collects standard technical information when you visit our site, such as your IP address, browser type, and the pages you view.
2. Legal Bases for Processing (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area, our legal bases for processing your personal information include: your consent, our legitimate interests in operating and improving our website, and our need to take steps at your request prior to entering into an agreement with you.
3. How We Use Information
- To respond to inquiries sent to us directly.
- To connect prospective and current residents with our resident services platform.
- To maintain, secure, and improve our website.
- To comply with legal obligations.
4. Cookies & Similar Technologies
Our website uses only the cookies and similar technologies necessary for basic site functionality and security. We do not use our own advertising or tracking cookies. If you follow a link to our resident portal, that platform’s own cookie practices will apply and are governed by its privacy policy, not ours.
5. Sharing of Information
We do not sell or rent your personal information. We share information only with the following categories of service providers, and only as needed to operate our website:
- Hosting. Our website is hosted by Vercel Inc.
- Resident Services. Rental applications, payments, and maintenance requests are handled directly by our resident portal, an independent third-party platform we link to from our site.
6. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.
7. International Transfers
We are based in Forest City, Iowa, United States. If you are accessing our website from outside the United States, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States, where data protection laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction.
8. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal information. California residents have the right to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information under the CCPA; we do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined by California law. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the information below.
9. Children’s Privacy
Our website is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
10. Security
We use reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect the information we hold. However, no method of electronic transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
