Privacy policy
Last updated: July 2, 2026
Rent Affordable ("we", "us") respects your privacy. This page explains what data we collect when you visit the site, how we use it, and the choices you have. If you have any questions, please contact us.
Information we collect automatically
Like most websites, our servers automatically log basic technical information when you visit a page, including your IP address, browser type and version, the URL you requested, the referring URL, and a timestamp. We use these server logs only to operate the site, prevent abuse, and produce aggregate traffic statistics. Logs are retained for a limited period and then deleted.
Cookies
We may use first-party cookies for essential site functionality, such as remembering your search filters between page loads. We may also work with third-party advertising and analytics providers that set their own cookies in your browser to measure the performance of their ads or to show you more relevant ads on this and other sites. You can disable cookies in your browser settings; the directory will continue to work without them.
Advertising
This site is supported by display advertising. Advertising partners (including, where enabled, Google AdSense) may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to deliver and measure ads. These partners may collect information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services that may interest you. To learn more about how Google uses data when you use partners' sites or apps, see Google's "How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services" page. You can opt out of personalized advertising at aboutads.info/choices (United States), youronlinechoices.eu (European Union), or via your device's advertising controls.
Information you provide
If you contact us via email, we receive whatever you send us — your message, your email address, and any attachments. We use this information solely to respond to your inquiry and do not add you to any marketing list.
Information we do not collect
Rent Affordable does not require accounts, does not collect housing application information, does not request income or eligibility documentation, and does not transmit any personal information to property owners or housing agencies. Application processes are conducted entirely between you and the property or PHA.
Children
This site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has submitted personal information to us, please contact us so we can delete it.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or port the personal data we hold about you, and to object to or restrict its processing. Residents of California, Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and other jurisdictions with comprehensive privacy laws can exercise these rights by contacting us. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected in the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, with a notice on the home page.
