1. Who we are
Top Realtors in Nassau County ("we", "our", "us") operates the website located at toprealtorsnassau.com. We publish an independent, editorially curated directory and ranking of real-estate professionals serving Nassau County, New York.
2. Information we collect
We only collect the information we need to operate the directory, respond to inquiries, and improve the site. This may include:
- Contact information you submit through forms — such as your name, email address, phone number, and message.
- Realtor profile information that agents provide to be listed — including name, photo, agency, license number, bio, and contact details.
- Automatically collected data when you use the site — such as IP address, browser type, device information, referring URL, and pages viewed.
- Cookies and similar technologies as described in our Cookie Policy.
3. How we use your information
We use the information we collect to:
- Publish and maintain the Top Realtors directory and individual profiles.
- Respond to inquiries, nominations, or requests for profile changes.
- Send email updates or newsletters to subscribers (with the ability to unsubscribe at any time).
- Monitor site security, prevent abuse, and improve site performance.
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms & Conditions.
4. When we share information
We do not sell personal information. We may share information only with:
- Service providers who help us operate the site (for example, hosting, analytics, or email delivery), bound by confidentiality obligations.
- Public directory listings — information that realtors provide for their profile is publicly visible by design.
- Authorities or legal requests when we are required to do so by law or to protect our rights or the safety of others.
5. Cookies and analytics

We retain information only as long as needed for the purposes described above or as required by law. Realtor profile information remains published while the realtor is listed in the directory; contact form submissions are kept for a reasonable period so we can follow up.
