Privacy Policy
Welcome to Bozeman Yards! We are excited to introduce you to a new collection of 39 design-forward condominiums in Bozeman, Montana’s Northeast Neighborhood. Our website (www.bozemanyards.com, the “Site”) provides your first look at this exciting opportunity and will put you in contact with our marketing and sales staff. When we collect personal information about you through our Site, we will use that information to contact you about the opportunities and amenities available at Bozeman Yards, provide you updates about our progress, and serve you with personalized advertising across multiple platforms, including those operated by Google, LinkedIn, and Meta. You can find more information about what types of personal information we collect and what we do with it in this policy.
Please read this policy carefully to understand our policies and practices regarding your information and how we will treat it. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, your choice is not to use our Site. We update this policy from time to time, so you should check back regularly for updates. Your continued use of this Site after we make changes is deemed to be agreement to and acceptance of those changes, so please check the policy periodically for updates.
This policy does not apply to information collected by us offline (when you interact with our representatives in person or over the phone) and it does not apply to websites we do not own or control, even if we have provided a link to that website for your information or use.
We know that the secret is out about Montana and that this opportunity may attract interest from visitors all over the world. Without conceding that we have a legal obligation to comply with the laws of your home country or state, we want you to know that we are committed to protecting your information. If you have a question or concern about what we have covered in this policy, feel free to give us a call! We will do our best to address whatever concerns you may have.
Categories of Personal Data
For purposes of this policy, “personal data” means any information that is linked or reasonably linkable to an identified or an identifiable individual. Different states and countries use different definitions of “personal data” or “personal information.” Because we call Montana home, we use the definition in Montana’s Consumer Data Privacy Act. Common examples of personal data include your name and address, email address, registration and contact information, billing and payment information, and data about the device you are using to access our website or services. The personal data we collect depends on the extent of your interactions with our Site, your use of the products and services provided by our advertising partners (including Google, Meta, and LinkedIn), the features you use, and applicable law. The categories of personal data we collect can include the following:
Individual Identifiers. Identifiers such as your name, mailing address, unique personal identifier or user name, internet protocol (IP) address, email address, phone number, date of birth, and other similar identifiers. We use this information to contact you directly about our development and to serve you with targeted advertising from our advertising partners, including Google, Meta, and LinkedIn. You can find out more about targeted advertising, and how to control the use of your information by our advertising partners, in the “Targeted Advertising” section of this Privacy Policy.

Targeted Advertising
The purpose of our Site is to engage interested visitors with information about Bozeman Yards, as well as the opportunity to learn more. For that reason, we collect personal information to assist our marketing and sales staff in identifying potential buyers and have partnered with several prominent third-party advertising programs to serve our website visitors with targeted or personalized advertising. Generally speaking, interest based advertising works by pairing information about your web browsing activity – together with the information these companies have gathered about thousands of other users – to identify target audiences who may be interested in certain types of products and services (in our case, high-end residential living in Bozeman, Montana). If you have a Facebook or Instagram account, you can learn why you are seeing a particular ad and control how Meta uses the information that it collects to show you ads here: https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policies/cookies. LinkedIn also uses cookies and similar technologies to serve you with ads, both on and off LinkedIn. You can learn more about how LinkedIn operates here: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy, and opt out of targeted advertising here: https://www.linkedin.com/mypreferences/g/guest-controls. Finally, if you would like to manage the ads that are shown to you through Google or YouTube, you can modify your interests, choose whether your personal information is used to make ads more relevant to you, and turn on or off certain advertising services here: https://adssettings.google.com/anonymous?ref=mac-hub&hl=en.
Google Analytics
We also use Google Analytics to help us understand how you engage with our Site. We use this information to improve our content and built better features to enhance your experience. Google Analytics uses a set of cookies to collect information about the visitors to the Site, which Google then reports back to us as site usage statistics. When Google provides us a report, it does not personally identify individual visitors. However, Google Analytics does place persistent cookies on your computer. The main cookie used by Google Analytics (“_ga”) allows Google to distinguish one visitor from another and lasts for two years. You can find out more about Google’s use of cookies here: https://policies.google.com/technologies/cookies?hl=en-US.
Google currently provides website visitors the option to opt-out of the use of their data from by Google Analytics. To utilize the opt-out feature, you will need to download and install an add-on for your web browser. The current version has been designed to be compatible with Chrome, Safari, Firefox and Microsoft Edge. You can download the opt-out add-on here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout and learn more about the opt-out and how to install it here: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/181881?hl=en. We do not control this opt-out, which may be updated or removed in accordance with Google’s policies.
Social Media and Other Linked Sites
Our Site contains plug-ins and other features that integrate third-party social media platforms, like Facebook, Instagram, X, and YouTube. You can activate these plug-ins manually by clicking on the icons located in the lower left-hand corner of our homepage. If you do so, the collection and use of your personal data is subject to each company’s privacy policies. We have no control over the collection and use of your information by Meta (Facebook and Instagram) or X, should you elect to leave our homepage and visit their sites.
For your convenience, additional hyperlinks may be posted on our Site that link to external websites we do not control. We are not responsible for, and this policy does not apply to, the privacy practices of other companies. You should not assume that our policy applies to any external sites, or that the policies applicable to those sites are similar to ours. You will need to review each site’s privacy policy to understand how your personal data will be collected and used by the owner of the site.
Your Privacy Rights and Options
Consumer Rights Requests. Bozeman Yards is located in the State of Montana. We value your confidence and trust in us and take the privacy of your information extremely seriously. If you have a question or concern about this privacy policy and our use of personal information, please feel free to contact us! Even if the law in Montana is different from your home jurisdiction, we will still do our best to resolve any requests you may have.
If you would like to access, correct, delete or obtain a copy of your personal data, please contact us at the email address below. Remember to include “Privacy Rights Request” in the subject of your email, so we can get it to the right people. Once we have received your request, the first thing we will do is determine if we have collected and retained any of your personal data. If we are in possession of your personal data, we will confirm receipt of your request and contact you to verify your identity. The method by which we will verify your identity may vary, depending on the type and sensitivity of your personal data, the risk of harm to you, and the technology available to you. If we cannot verify your identity with reasonable certainty, we will deny your request and inform you that your identity could not be verified. Although you are under no obligation to cooperate with our efforts to verify your identity, we cannot act on your request until you have done so.
Please do not send us any sensitive personal information as part of your request. Should we require any information beyond your name and account number, we will contact you to discuss a secure and reliable means of transmitting that information to us.
Our resolution of your request will depend on the nature of the personal data and the purposes of our processing of your data. We reserve the right to decline your request if we are unable to authenticate your identity, if we have a good faith, reasonable, and documented belief that your request is fraudulent, or if your request exceeds what is required of us under applicable law. We may elect to fulfill your request without conceding the applicability of any legal requirement that would require us to do so.
Should we decline your request, you may submit an appeal of our decision to the following email address: webmaster@bozemanyards.com. Please include “Consumer Privacy Appeal” in the subject of your email.
Using Our Cookie Banner. When you enter our Site, you have the option to accept or decline all cookies. When you make this election, your choice will be stored on your web browser. Should you change your mind and wish to opt-out later, you will need to clear your browsing data and reload our Site. Since the process for clearing the browser cache and associated cookies varies between browsers, you should consult the browser’s support site for further instructions.
You can also use our Cookie Banner to learn more about the cookies we use and register your preferences with respect to specific categories of cookies. The categories of cookies we use are:
- Necessary Cookies: These cookies ensure that core features of our Site work properly, such as navigation, load balancing, form submissions, and sessions. These cookies are installed by us and last only for the duration of your visit to our website. Once your web browser is closed these cookies are automatically deleted.
- Personalization Cookies: These cookies store details about your actions to personalize your next visit to the website. When you interact with our website, we will install a cookie to collect your personal information and store data about what you did on our Site. The next time you visit, this information is used to “remember” you. These cookies are considered “first-party” cookies, because they are set and used by us to personalize your experience on the Site and provide you better customer service.
- Marketing Cookies: These cookies are used to track your online activity across websites for marketing and advertising purposes. Because our Site is designed to help interested buyers find more information about the Bozeman Yards development, we have partnered with several prominent marketing programs, including Meta Ads, LinkedIn Ads, and Google Ads. When you visit our Site, tracking cookies and pixels from these providers are placed on your device to gather information about your browsing activities. Although the specific features and functionality of these programs may differ, each uses the information it gathers about you from cookies and pixels to serve you with personalized or targeted advertising about Bozeman Yards. These types of cookies are considered “third-party” cookies because they were created and placed by someone else. You can identify these cookies on our Site by looking at their associated domain (it will be something other than bozemanyards.com). If you want to block these cookies, you can opt-out using our cookie banner (you can also use the additional controls described below) and by using the opt-features provided by each of our advertising partners, as further described in the “Targeted Advertising” section of this policy.
- Analytics Cookies: These cookies help us understand how you interact with our site. We use this data to identify areas to improve and analyze the performance of our website. On our Site, these cookies belong to Google Analytics (you can read more about how Google Analytics works and how to opt-out with Google in this policy). If you want to block these cookies, you can opt-out using our cookie banner.
Browser-Based Controls. Your browser may include certain features that will assist you in controlling the collection and use of your personal information. These features may include:
- Cookie Controls. Your internet browser will enable you to select to receive or block cookies under various conditions. However, should you choose to decline or block cookies by adjusting your browser settings, you may disrupt the operation of cookies that are essential to our Site. You can typically block cookies through the browser’s “Settings” or “Preferences” menus. You can find more specific instructions on your browser’s support site or here: https://allaboutcookies.org/what-is-a-cookie (under “How to disable third-party cookies”).
- Tracking Prevention. Several browsers currently offer or are experimenting with features that detect and block potentially harmful trackers, including social media trackers, cross-site tracking cookies, fingerprinters, crypto-mining and tracking content. You can learn more about these tracking initiatives and register your preferences here:
- Microsoft Edge Tracking Prevention: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/learn-about-tracking-prevention-in-microsoft-edge-5ac125e8-9b90-8d59-fa2c-7f2e9a44d869

- Browser Controls for “Do Not Track.” Some browsers have incorporated “Do Not Track” features that can send a signal to websites you visit indicating that you do not wish to be tracked. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to treat these signals, you should use the “Do Not Track” feature in conjunction with another form of opt-out. Many websites still collect and use your browsing data to improve security, provide content, services, ads and recommendations on their websites, and generate reporting statistics.
