8. Direct Property Acquisition

The Website presents our service primarily as a direct purchase of fire-damaged property.

Submitting property information allows us to determine whether we may wish to acquire the property.

A Website submission does not itself create:

• Damage assessments;
• Repair estimates;
• Mortgagee involvement;
• Recoverable depreciation;

Collecting or reviewing this information does not make us your insurance representative, public adjuster, or attorney.

11. No Public-Adjuster Relationship

Unless we are separately licensed and retained as permitted by Florida law, we do not act as your public adjuster.

We do not, merely by evaluating or purchasing your property:

• Prepare or file an insurance claim for you;
• Negotiate your covered loss with your insurer on your behalf;
• Represent you in settlement discussions;
• Promise to maximize your insurance recovery;
• Determine what your insurer legally owes you; or

15. Florida Digital Bill of Rights

Florida’s Digital Bill of Rights regulates a comparatively narrow category of very large businesses.

As of October 9, 2026, the statute generally defines a covered “controller” to include a qualifying for-profit entity that, among other requirements:

• Conducts business in Florida;
• Collects and determines the purposes and means of processing consumer personal data;
• Has more than $1 billion in global gross annual revenue; and
• Satisfies at least one additional statutory business-model criterion.

The inclusion of this section does not represent that I Buy Fire Damaged Homes Fort Lauderdale Florida meets those thresholds.

Where the Florida Digital Bill of Rights applies to our operations, we will comply with it.

16. Florida Privacy Rights Where Applicable

Where Florida’s Digital Bill of Rights applies, qualifying consumers may have rights concerning:

• Confirmation of processing;
• Correction;
• Deletion;
• Portability;
• Opt-out of sale;
• Opt-out of targeted advertising;
• Certain profiling; and
• Other processing regulated by the statute.

Applicable statutory exceptions may apply.

17. Florida Privacy Requests

Where Florida’s Digital Bill of Rights applies, we will provide legally required methods for submitting consumer requests.

Applicable law generally requires covered controllers to respond within the statutory period and provides an appeal process for denied requests.

Where the law does not apply to us, we may nevertheless consider reasonable privacy requests voluntarily.

18. Voluntary Privacy Requests

Even where no comprehensive privacy statute applies to a particular request, you may contact us to request:

• Information concerning personal information associated with you;
• Correction of inaccurate contact information;
• Deletion where reasonably practicable;
• Removal from promotional communications; or

We may retain information where reasonably necessary for:

• Existing or potential transactions;
• Contract records;
• Tax and accounting obligations;
• Fraud prevention;
• Litigation;
• Security;
• Legal compliance;
• Insurance matters; and
• Legitimate business recordkeeping.

Offering a voluntary process does not create a statutory right where one otherwise does not exist.

19. Residents of Other States

Consumers residing outside Florida may have privacy rights under another state’s law.

Depending on applicable law, those rights may include:

• Access;
• Correction;
• Deletion;

We or our service providers may record calls for:

• Quality assurance;
• Training;
• Documentation;
• Compliance;

but only where legally permitted.

Where another jurisdiction imposes stricter requirements, the stricter requirement will be followed.

If you provide a mobile telephone number and applicable consent, we may communicate by text concerning:

• Your inquiry;
• Your property;
• Scheduling;
• Inspections;
• Offers;
• Follow-up; and
• Potential transactions.

Where legally required, separate or additional consent will be obtained before regulated automated or marketing texts are sent.

Consent to marketing is not a condition of receiving an offer or selling property where prohibited by law.

Message and data rates may apply.

Message frequency may vary.

Reply STOP to request that applicable messages stop.

We may use your email address to:

• Respond to inquiries;
