8. Data Retention
We retain personal information submitted through our website for as long as necessary to respond to your inquiry and, if you become a resident, to fulfill our obligations under your residency agreement and applicable law.
Inquiry and application data from individuals who do not become residents is generally retained for no longer than 24 months. Residency records may be retained for a longer period as required by Massachusetts law and standard business record-keeping practices.
Anonymized analytics data collected through Google Analytics is retained in accordance with Google’s own data retention settings, which we have set to 14 months.
You may request deletion of your personal information at any time by contacting us as described in Section 14 of this policy. We will honor such requests to the extent permitted by law.
9. Security
We take the security of your personal information seriously. Our website uses HTTPS encryption to protect data in transit between your browser and our server. Form submissions are transmitted securely and stored on our password-protected WordPress installation.
We maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards consistent with our obligations under Massachusetts 201 CMR 17.00 (Standards for the Protection of Personal Information of Residents of the Commonwealth) and applicable federal law.
However, no method of transmission over the Internet and no electronic storage system is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. In the event of a data breach that is likely to affect your rights and freedoms, we will notify you as required by applicable law.
10. Your Rights
Depending on where you reside, you may have certain rights with respect to your personal information. Massachusetts residents, and in some cases residents of other states, may have the following rights:
Right to Know
You have the right to request information about the personal data we hold about you, including the categories of data we collect, how we use it, and whether we share it with third parties.
Right to Access
You may request a copy of the personal information we hold about you in a readable format.
Right to Correct
You may request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete personal information we hold about you.
Right to Delete
You may request that we delete your personal information, subject to certain exceptions (for example, where we are required by law to retain records, or where the information is necessary to complete a transaction you have requested).
Right to Opt Out of Sale
We do not sell personal information. This right is therefore not applicable, but we affirm it here for transparency.
How to Exercise Your Rights
To exercise any of the rights above, contact us in writing at info@theresidenceshadley.com or by mail at 401 Russell Street, Hadley, MA 01035. We will respond to verifiable requests within 45 days. In some cases we may need to verify your identity before processing your request.
We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights.
11. Children’s Privacy
This website is not directed to individuals under the age of 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. All residency agreements require the applicant to be at least 18 years of age. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a person under 18, we will delete that information promptly. If you believe we may have collected such information, please contact us immediately at info@theresidenceshadley.com.

Our website may contain links to third-party websites, including Google Maps and social media platforms. These sites are governed by their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of any external website and encourage you to review their policies before submitting any personal information to them.
