The Type of Information We Collect.

As visitors browse the Site, Hines collects information about the visit. For example, via web server logs and browser cookie files, Hines monitors statistics such as the number of visitors we have to our Site, which pages are visited, the browsers our visitors use and the domains our visitors come from, but none of this information is associated with any visitor as an individual. We do this through Google Analytics, which ensures that all data collected in this manner is anonymous.

Some pages on this web site use a technology called "cookies". A cookie is a token that a server gives to your browser when you access a web site. Cookies are capable of storing many types of data. Cookies help provide additional functionality to the Site or help us analyze Site usage more accurately. For instance, our server may set a cookie that keeps you from having to enter a password more than once during a visit to the Site. In all cases in which cookies are used, we will not collect personally identifiable information except with your explicit permission. With most Internet browsers, you can erase cookies from your computer hard drive, block all cookies, or receive a warning before a cookie is stored. Please refer to your browser instructions or help screen to learn more about these functions.

HARTLAND’S EQUAL HOUSING OPPORTUNITY COMMITMENT

Hines, which is the developer of Hartland, does business in accordance with the federal, state, and local fair housing laws that prohibit unfair and discriminatory housing practices, including the federal Fair Housing Act, the Americans With Disabilities Act, and the Texas Fair Housing Act. It is illegal to discriminate against any person because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap (disability), familial status (such as having one or more children), or national origin in the sale or rental of housing, in advertising the sale or rental of housing, in financing of housing, in the provision of real estate brokerage services, and in the appraisal of housing.

As an Equal Housing Opportunity company, Hines will not show preference to, limit, or discriminate against, any person on the basis of race, color, handicap (disability), religion, sex, national origin, familial status, or any other classification protected by federal, state, or local law. In addition, Hines will make reasonable accommodations in its rules, policies, practices, and services and allow reasonable modifications of premises (at the resident’s expense) when such accommodations or modifications are necessary to afford full enjoyment of the dwellings and premises.

If you feel that Hines has not met its obligations under the law, please contact the Hines Fair Housing Team at info@ourhartland.com. In addition, a complaint may be filed with the Department of Housing and Urban Development:
