What we collect

When you contact a broker about a listing

Your name, email address, optional phone number and message, and which listing it’s about. We also record whether you confirmed your email address.

When you save a search

Your email address and the search you saved (for example, “restaurants in Florida”), and when you confirmed it.

When you ask to talk to a broker about selling

Your name, email address, optional phone number, the type and location of your business, any revenue or cash flow figures you choose to give, and your message. The “What’s your business worth?” estimate runs in your browser; the figures you type into it aren’t sent to us unless you also send a request to talk to a broker.

When you have a broker account

Your name, email address, password (stored only in scrambled form by our sign-in provider), brokerage name, phone, website, logo, profile text, the listings and photos you add, the profiles of brokers on your team, and your plan and billing status. Payment card details are entered on Stripe’s pages and kept by Stripe; we never see or store your full card number.

If you use “paste your listing” or upload a teaser or PDF, the text or file is sent to our AI provider to fill in the listing form for you. We don’t keep the pasted text or the PDF; photos you choose from the PDF are added to your listing.

Automatically, when you visit

• Listing views. To show brokers how many people viewed a listing, we count one view per visitor per listing per day. We store a one-way code made from your network address, your browser type and the date, which can’t be turned back into who you are and changes every day.
• Sign-in cookies. If you have a broker account, cookies keep you signed in. We don’t use advertising or tracking cookies.
• Bot protection. Some forms use Cloudflare Turnstile to check you’re a person, not a bot. Cloudflare processes information about your browser to do this.
• Server records. Like most websites, our hosting provider keeps short-term technical records (such as network addresses and pages requested) to run the site and keep it secure.

How we use it

• To deliver your inquiry to the listing’s broker (and, at a brokerage, the broker assigned to that listing with a copy to the firm’s owner), and to email you a receipt with a link to confirm your address.
• To send the listing alerts you asked for, no more than once a day, and only until you stop them.
• To introduce a business owner who asks to talk to a broker to one broker who covers their area.
• To run broker accounts: listings, approval, team profiles, reports, reminders, billing and receipts.
• To keep the site secure, prevent spam and abuse, and fix problems.
• To promote listings: approved listings may be shown on BizListPro’s (and, for County South’s own listings, County South’s) social media pages. These posts show the listing, never buyers’ details.

Who we share it with

We never sell personal information, and we never pass a buyer’s inquiry to anyone other than the listing’s broker. We share information only:

• With the listing’s broker, when you contact them about a listing.
• With one broker, when you ask to talk to a broker about selling your business.
• With the service providers that run the site for us, only as needed for their job: Supabase (database and sign-in), Vercel (hosting), Postmark (email), Stripe (payments), Cloudflare (bot protection), Anthropic (filling in listing forms from brokers’ text), Meta (posting listings to Facebook and Instagram) and OpenFreeMap (the map on the search page, which your browser loads directly).
• When the law requires it, or to protect the rights, safety or property of our users, the public or BizListPro.
• If BizListPro is sold or merged, with the new owner, who must keep these promises.

Listing and inquiry information is never used to approach other brokers’ sellers.

Emails from us

We send emails you’ve asked for (alerts, receipts, sign-in and account emails) and, to broker accounts, emails about listings, billing and the service. Every alert email has a link to stop it. Account and billing emails are part of having an account.

How long we keep it

Inquiries stay in the broker’s account while they have one. Saved searches are deleted when you stop them. Listing views are kept as long as the listing’s reports are useful. Broker account information is kept while the account is open and for as long afterwards as we need it for billing, legal and tax records.

Your choices and rights

• Stop any listing alert from the link in the email, or all of them at once.
• Brokers can update their profile, team and listings in their dashboard at any time, and cancel billing in “Manage billing.”
• You can ask us to tell you what personal information we hold about you, to correct it, or to delete it, by emailing support@bizlistpro.com. We’ll respond within 30 days. We may need to keep some information where the law requires it. Depending on where you live, you may have further rights under your state’s privacy law; we’ll honor them.

Security

Information is sent over encrypted connections, access to our database is limited by strict rules so brokers can only see their own listings and inquiries, and staff access is recorded. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to protect your information and will tell you if a breach affects you, as the law requires.

Children

BizListPro is for adults buying and selling businesses. It isn’t meant for anyone under 18, and we don’t knowingly collect their information.

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we’ll update the date at the top, and tell broker account holders by email about important changes.
