01 Who we are and what this covers
Rent Month to Month ("RentMTM", "we", "us") is operated by [Legal Entity Name], with a principal place of business at [postal address]. This Policy applies to the marketplace, the rental gateway, the storefront and advertiser landing pages, the account areas and the control panel.
It serves as our notice at collection and our full privacy policy under the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act, and under the comprehensive privacy statutes of Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas, Oregon, Montana and other states that have enacted them. Owners, sellers, advertisers and professionals who use the platform are separate businesses and have their own privacy practices.

08 How to exercise your rights
Submit a request from the privacy area of your account, by emailing privacy@rentmtm.shop, or by calling [toll-free number]. We verify your identity before acting, using information already associated with your account. An authorized agent may submit a request with written permission that we can verify.
We acknowledge requests within ten business days and respond within forty-five calendar days, extendable once by another forty-five days with notice. If we deny a request in whole or in part, we explain why and you may appeal by replying to our response; we decide the appeal within forty-five days and tell you how to contact your state attorney general if you disagree.
09 Retention and deletion
We keep each category only as long as needed for the purpose it was collected for and for the periods set out in our Data Retention and Deletion Policy: account records for the life of the account and four years after; rental, order and payment records for seven years; identity documents and selfies for no more than three years; access logs for twelve months. After that, records are destroyed or irreversibly de-identified.
10 Security and breach notice
We apply administrative, technical and physical safeguards, including encryption in transit and at rest for sensitive data, role-based access control, audit logging and periodic testing. No system is perfectly secure, so please use a strong, unique password and enable multi-factor authentication where offered.
If a breach affects your personal information, we will notify you and the applicable state regulators in the manner and within the deadlines that the breach notification statute of your state requires, without unreasonable delay.
11 Children and minors
The platform is for adults. You must be at least eighteen to hold an account. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under thirteen, as the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act addresses, and we do not sell or share the personal information of any consumer we know to be under sixteen. If you believe a minor has provided information to us, contact us and we will delete it.
12 Changes and contact
We review this Policy at least annually and update it when our practices change. The effective date appears at the top, and we give prominent notice of material changes.
