What this site collects

This is a small site for a small practice. The data picked up is limited and named below.

• Contact form. When you send a note through the form on the contact page, you submit your name, your email address, an optional phone number, and the body of your message. Nothing else. The form does not ask for an address, a budget range, a price, or financial information.
• Server access logs. The site is hosted on Amazon Web Services (Amazon S3 behind the Amazon CloudFront content delivery network). Standard server logs are recorded by the host: IP address, the page requested, timestamp, browser user-agent, and the referrer. These logs are operated by AWS and are not held in a private database by the practice.
• Analytics. The site runs Google Analytics 4 to count page views and see which pages people read. It records a randomly generated visitor identifier, the pages you view, approximate location derived from your IP address, and general device and browser information. It does not receive your name, email address, or anything you type into the contact form. No other analytics product is installed: no Plausible, no Fathom, no Hotjar, no session recorder.

What it doesn’t

The site does not run, host, or load:

• Advertising trackers, retargeting pixels, or conversion tags.
• The Meta (Facebook) Pixel, the LinkedIn Insight Tag, or the X (Twitter) Pixel.
• Google Tag Manager.
• A live-chat widget that sits in the corner and watches the page.
• An automated sales CRM connected by a snippet (no Follow Up Boss script, no kvCORE script, no Sierra Interactive).

Contact information is not sold, rented, traded, or syndicated to lead-aggregator vendors. There is no “data partner” relationship behind the form.

What happens to a contact note

The contact form on this site posts to a Google Apps Script running under Viktoriia’s own Google account. It receives the four fields you submit (name, email, optional phone, note), records them as a row in a private Google Sheet that only she can open, and emails her the message with your address set as the reply-to. No other company handles the form. Google’s own privacy policy governs the data while it sits in Google Workspace. No retargeting pixel or advertising tracker is embedded on this site, and no cookie is set by the form itself. What you type into the form is never passed to the analytics tag.

Once the message lands in Viktoriia’s inbox, she reads and replies personally, in her own words, the same day or the next. The note then sits in her inbox as ordinary correspondence and is not pushed into a shared team mailbox or a vendor CRM.

If the conversation moves toward a transaction, your information may be entered into the brokerage’s transaction-management system as required for the file. That system is operated by Christie’s International Real Estate Lone Star. Access there is limited to the people working on your representation.

If you don’t end up working with the practice, the original note remains in Viktoriia’s email per ordinary email retention. You can ask for it to be deleted at any time.

Cookies

Google Analytics sets first-party _ga cookies that give your browser a random identifier so repeat visits can be counted as one visitor rather than several. That is the only cookie the site sets. There is no advertising cookie, no cross-site tracking cookie, and no third-party cookie. There is no cookie consent banner because analytics-only first-party cookies do not require one under current US practice. Your browser may also write small first-party storage entries for things like remembered scroll position.

Third parties the page touches

Loading any page on the site causes your browser to make a few requests to outside servers. The ones in play here:

• Web fonts (Cinzel, EB Garamond, DM Mono). Served directly from viktoriiajones.com. The fonts are not loaded from Google or any other third-party CDN, so no IP or user-agent reaches Google when the page renders.
• Amazon Web Services. The site is hosted on Amazon S3 and served through Amazon CloudFront. Page requests reach AWS servers and are logged on their side under the AWS privacy notice.
• Google Analytics 4. The analytics tag loads from googletagmanager.com and sends page-view events to Google. Google receives your IP address, user-agent, and the pages you view, and sets first-party _ga cookies in your browser. Google’s handling is described in their privacy policy.
• Google Apps Script. Only invoked when you submit the contact form. The four form fields and your IP reach Google’s servers, where the note is written to a private Google Sheet and emailed to Viktoriia. Google’s handling is described in their privacy policy.
• Instagram (linked, not embedded). The footer links to instagram.com/viktoriia.jones. Following that link takes you to Meta’s site, where their own policies apply. The Instagram feed is not embedded on these pages.

Your rights

Texas residents can ask what information the practice holds on them and ask for it to be deleted. To exercise either right:

• Email viktoriia@christiesrealestatels.com with the subject line “Privacy request.”
• Or call +1 512.466.3299.

Expect a response within roughly 30 days. If a deletion request would conflict with a record the brokerage is legally required to keep, that’s noted in the next section.

Brokerage retention

If you have been a client of the practice, transaction records are kept for four years from the date of closing or the termination of the agreement, per Texas Real Estate Commission rule TAC 535.2(h). Those records include the contracts, disclosures, and supporting documents that the law requires. A request to delete personal information cannot reach into those records during the four-year period; they are kept on file under TREC’s recordkeeping rule. After the retention period ends, ordinary deletion can apply.

Updates

If anything material on this page changes, the change posts here with a new last-updated date. Small wording fixes that don’t change the substance won’t bump the date.
