Cookie Policy and Tracking Technologies

Last updated: 23 July 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how RealtorList.Net uses cookies and similar technologies when a person visits realtorlist.net, accesses their account, completes forms, uses professional tools or purchases a service.

References to RealtorList o RealtorList.Net shall be understood as referring to the owner and provider identified in the Legal notice.

The processing of personal data related to these technologies is also explained in the Privacy policy.

1. What cookies and similar technologies are

Cookies are small files or pieces of information that may be stored or accessed in the browser, device or application of a person when they visit a digital service.

RealtorList may also use technologies that perform similar functions, such as:

Local or session storage.
Tracking pixels and tags.
Web beacons.
Browser or device identifiers.
Scripts and provider software development kits.
Event and conversion measurement technologies.

In this policy, the term cookies is used to refer collectively to these technologies where applicable.

2. Data Controller

The controller responsible for the use of first-party cookies and the overall configuration of the technologies used on RealtorList.Net is the owner identified in the Legal notice.

For enquiries relating to cookies or privacy:

Email: partners@realtorlist.net

The owner's full identifying information is not repeated on this page to avoid unnecessary disclosure, but remains directly and permanently available in the Legal Notice.

3. Principles applied by RealtorList

RealtorList seeks to configure its technologies in accordance with the following criteria:

Use only necessary cookies before the user makes a decision.
Block non-essential cookies until valid consent is obtained, where such consent is mandatory.
Provide clear options to accept, reject or configure them.
Avoid pre-ticked boxes for non-essential purposes.
Not interpret silence, inactivity, scrolling or mere browsing as consent.
Allow consent to be withdrawn as easily as it was given.
Limit the duration and information collected to what is necessary for each purpose.
Periodically review installed cookies, scripts and providers.

4. Cookie categories

4.1. Technical or strictly necessary cookies

These are necessary for the site to function, maintain its security or provide a function expressly requested by the user.

They may be used, among other purposes, to:

Display the site correctly and distribute server load.
Manage authenticated user sessions.
Remember consent preferences.
Protect forms and login processes.
Detect misuse, fraud or unauthorised access attempts.
Temporarily retain items in a purchase.
Process a request or payment initiated by the user.
Maintain the security and stability of WordPress and its components.

These cookies may be used without consent when they are strictly necessary to provide the requested service or transmit a communication.

Whether a cookie is considered necessary depends on its actual function, not on the name assigned by RealtorList or by the provider.

4.2. Preference or functionality cookies

They allow us to remember options requested by the user, such as language, certain visual preferences, filters, account settings or customised features.

Where a preference is necessary to provide an expressly requested feature, it may be enabled without consent. When used for additional personalisation or non-essential purposes, it will remain disabled until the relevant consent has been obtained.

4.3. Analytics and measurement cookies

They provide statistical insight into how RealtorList is used, identify issues, measure loading times and improve the structure, content and user experience.

They may measure, among other things:

Pages visited and browsing paths.
Approximate time spent on the site.
Events carried out within the site.
Technical errors and performance.
General device type, browser and screen size.
Country or approximate geographical area.
General source of the visit.

As a general rule, these cookies will only be enabled after the user accepts the analytics category.

Certain measurements strictly limited to anonymous audience statistics may be used without consent only where they meet all applicable legal and technical requirements, including the absence of advertising, profiling, cross-site tracking, reuse by the provider or combination with other sources.

RealtorList will not consider an analytics tool exempt merely because it provides aggregated statistics.

4.4. Advertising and conversion cookies

They may be used to measure campaigns, attribute conversions, limit ad repetition, create audiences, analyse advertising results or display advertising tailored to interests or interactions.

These technologies will remain blocked until prior user consent has been obtained where this is mandatory.

Rejecting advertising cookies does not necessarily prevent the user from seeing advertising, but it prevents RealtorList from authorising its personalisation or measurement through non-essential technologies installed from this site.

4.5. Affiliate cookies

They may be used to verify whether a visit, registration or contract comes from a specific campaign, partner or affiliate link.

Where attribution requires storing or accessing information that is not strictly necessary on the device, the technology will be enabled only after the relevant consent has been obtained.

4.6. External content and social media cookies

Some pages may incorporate maps, videos, posts, buttons, calendars, forms or resources from third parties.

These providers may attempt to store cookies, receive the IP address, recognise the browser or record the interaction performed.

Where the integration is not strictly necessary, RealtorList may initially block it and display a notice so that the user can decide whether to load that content.

5. First-party and third-party cookies

Third-party first-party cookies are managed by RealtorList.Net or by providers acting on the instructions of RealtorList to provide a specific function.

Third-party third-party cookies are set or used by external entities that may provide hosting, security, analytics, advertising, video, maps, payments, forms or communications.

Some third parties may determine all or part of their own purposes and means of processing. In such cases, they will also be responsible for their processing in accordance with their respective policies.

The involvement of a third party does not remove the obligations incumbent upon RealtorList regarding the proper configuration of the site, the information provided and the obtaining of consent.

6. Current cookie inventory

The current inventory must indicate the technologies actually detected on RealtorList.Net and, at a minimum:

Cookie name or identifier.
Provider or domain that sets it.
Purpose.
Category.
Whether it is first-party or third-party.
Duration or expiry date.
Activation time or condition.

If the consent panel does not automatically display the name, provider, purpose and duration of each cookie, this section must be completed before publishing the policy.

7. Tag managers

RealtorList may use a tag manager to manage scripts and technologies from different providers.

A tag manager does not make the tools it loads necessary. Each tag must be classified and blocked according to its actual purpose.

Analytics, advertising, affiliate or external content tags must not run before the user accepts the relevant category.

8. Owner tools that do not install cookies

Certain tools used to verify domain ownership, analyse indexing or access aggregated information from an external dashboard may not install cookies on the visitor's device.

These tools must not automatically be included in the cookie inventory merely because RealtorList has an account with the provider.

They will only appear in the inventory when there is a script, pixel, tag, embedded resource or other technology that actually runs in the browser of the user.

9. Payments, security and fraud prevention

During access, registration or the payment process, technologies may be used that are necessary to authenticate requests, maintain the session, process a transaction, apply security controls or prevent fraudulent operations.

Classification as necessary will be limited to functions essential to fulfil the user's request or protect the service.

Any additional processing by the provider for advertising, profiling, non-essential measurement or independent reuse must be assessed and, where applicable, made subject to consent.

10. How consent is obtained

On the first visit, or when it is necessary to renew the choice, RealtorList will display a notice allowing users to:

Accept all non-essential cookies.
Reject all non-essential cookies.
Configure categories separately.

The accept and reject buttons must appear on the same layer, with equivalent mechanisms, clear wording and comparable visibility.

Pre-ticked boxes will not be used for non-essential categories, nor will designs intended to steer the user towards acceptance.

The following will not be considered valid consent:

Silence or inactivity.
Continue browsing.
Scroll through the page.
Close the notice without making an affirmative choice.
Accept the terms of service or privacy policy.
Use a previously configured option without valid user action.

11. Settings panel

The panel will allow cookies to be accepted or rejected by clearly defined categories.

Necessary technical cookies will appear enabled when they are indispensable and it will be explained why they cannot be disabled from the panel.

Non-essential preference, analytics, advertising, affiliate and external content categories must remain disabled initially, unless there is a duly documented legal exception.

The panel must include a clear mechanism for saving the selection.

12. Withdrawal or modification of consent

Users may withdraw or amend their consent at any time using the permanent link or button “Configure cookies”, available in the footer.

Withdrawal must be as easy as acceptance and must not require logging in, sending an email or completing an additional procedure.

Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the preferences were changed.

After consent is withdrawn, RealtorList will stop activating the affected technologies . Some cookies already stored may need to be deleted through the panel itself, browser settings or the tools of the relevant third party.

13. Retention of the choice

RealtorList may store a technical cookie to remember whether the user has accepted, rejected or configured certain categories.

The consent record may include:

The date and time of the choice.
The version of the applicable notice or policy.
The categories accepted and rejected.
A limited technical identifier to document the choice.

This data will be retained for the period necessary to manage and document preferences, without retaining it longer than reasonably necessary. necessary.

As a general rule, the validity of a choice should not exceed twenty-four months without review, without prejudice to requesting a new decision earlier when the purposes, third parties or technologies used change.

14. Cookie duration

Cookies may be:

Session cookies: are stored temporarily and are usually deleted when the browser is closed or the session ends.
Persistent cookies: remain until their expiry date, until the user deletes them or they are replaced.

The exact duration of each technology must be included in the current inventory. RealtorList will endeavour to set the shortest period compatible with the legitimate purpose pursued.

15. Changes in purpose or provider

When new purposes, providers or technologies are introduced that require consent, RealtorList will update the information and request a new choice before activating them.

Authorisation granted for analytics will not be interpreted as authorisation for advertising, profiling, affiliate activities or tracking across different services.

16. Browsers and devices

Browsers allow users to view, block or delete cookies through their privacy or security settings.

The procedure depends on the browser, operating system and device. Users may consult the official instructions provided by Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, Opera or the browser they use.

Blocking all cookies through the browser may prevent the functioning of the session, access to the account, the basket, certain forms or security features.

Browser settings do not replace the permanent management mechanism that must be provided by RealtorList.

17. International transfers

Some technology providers may process information from countries outside the European Economic Area.

Where there is an international transfer of personal data, RealtorList and the relevant provider must use a mechanism recognised by applicable regulations, such as an adequacy decision, standard contractual clauses or other valid safeguards.

The applicable providers, countries, safeguards and processing activities must be explained in greater detail in the Privacy policy.

18. Access without accepting non-essential cookies

Rejecting non-essential cookies will not prevent general access to RealtorList.Net or the exercise of legally recognised rights.

Certain external content or optional features may not load where they technically depend on rejected technology. In such cases, the user will be informed and, where possible, offered a reasonable alternative .

19. Minors

The professional services of RealtorList are not specifically intended for children under fourteen years of age.

RealtorList does not intend to use advertising or profiling cookies to create profiles of known minors.

Where a service or content is found to be specifically directed at minors, the additional safeguards required will apply.

20. Audits and technical updates

RealtorList will endeavour to carry out periodic reviews of the website to identify:

New cookies or identifiers.
Scripts added by plugins or updates.
Changes to cookie duration.
Providers that have changed their purposes.
Tags activated before consent.
Cookies classified under an incorrect category.
Discrepancies between the published inventory and actual operation.

The policy and panel must be updated when the audit identifies material changes occur.

21. Responsibility of external providers

External providers may change their cookie names, domains, technologies, policies and retention periods.

RealtorList will endeavour to keep its settings and information up to date, but does not unilaterally control the independent decisions made by those third parties.

This limitation does not exclude the legal obligations applicable to RealtorList regarding provider selection, website configuration, information provided to users and consent management.

22. Updates to this policy

RealtorList may update this Cookie Policy due to legal, technical, security, provider or service operation changes.

The effective version date will appear at the top of the page.

Where a change affects purposes or third parties previously accepted, the user will be allowed to make a new decision before activating the affected technologies.
