Your Preferences and the SalarO Passport
- SalarO Limited, the company behind Properties.co.uk and various other popular web sites operates a central login system called the SalarO Passport. This system is a database of the users who can access our web sites and also contains a set of preferences for each subscriber.
- When you sign up to a SalarO web site a SalarO Passport account is opened for you and you can use this to access the content on any of our web sites.
- As we are usually providing expensive data sets to consumers free of charge, our aim has been to establish a database of subscribers who we communicate with when we add new features to our current web sites or when we launch a new web site that we think our subscribers may be interested in.
- The data we hold in the SalarO Passport system is not available for sale to any third parties and will only ever be used by us with your consent.
- If you would prefer not to receive alerts about house prices and other data that we email to our subscribers free of charge on a regular basis then you can manage your alerts with us on the My Alerts page.
- If you remove all your alerts then we will no longer send you any automatic update emails. However you will still remain a subscriber to our web sites via the SalarO Passport system and will therefore still have access to our web sites when you choose to search for information.
- As a subscriber of the SalarO Passport we will occasionally still email you with news and information about our company, our new web site features and new web sites we develop. If you do not wish to receive any email from us at all, you must then cancel your subscription to our SalarO Passport login system which you can do on this page.(requires login)
- Please note once you have done this you will no longer be able to log in to any of our web sites without re-subscribing.
- You can use the SalarO Passport(requires login) page to easily join or leave any of our other web sites that are currently supported by the system. By leaving just one site you will continue to receive emails about other sites if you remain a member of those.
