How information is collected, used and protected when you use Why Eugene?.
Last updated: September 30, 2026
We may collect information you voluntarily provide, such as your name, email address, optional phone number, moving-from location, Lane County Matchmaker answers and results, business nomination details, messages or other information submitted through website forms. We may also collect technical information such as IP address, device/browser data, pages viewed, referral source and cookie or analytics data when those tools are enabled.
We use information to operate and improve the site, deliver requested guides or communications, respond to inquiries, understand site performance, prevent abuse, maintain records, and comply with legal obligations. If you submit a mortgage inquiry or follow a link to CMG Home Loans, mortgage-related information may be processed under CMG Home Loans' own privacy practices.
If you opt in to updates, we may send local guides, new content, events and related information. You may unsubscribe using the link in any marketing email. Transactional or requested communications may still be sent when necessary.
Website hosting, form processing, analytics, email delivery and security may be provided by third parties, including Netlify and any analytics or email platform added later. Those providers process data under their own terms and privacy practices.
The site may use essential cookies and, if enabled, analytics or advertising technologies. If nonessential tracking is added, the site will provide appropriate notice and choice where required. You can also control cookies through your browser.
We do not sell personal information for money. We may disclose information to service providers, professional advisers, authorities when legally required, or as part of a business transfer. If our data practices later constitute a “sale,” “sharing,” or targeted advertising under an applicable privacy law, we will provide any required opt-out mechanism.
The Oregon Consumer Privacy Act applies to businesses that meet statutory thresholds and provides qualifying Oregon consumers rights related to access, correction, deletion, portability and certain processing choices. Whether those statutory rights apply to Why Eugene? depends on applicable thresholds and exemptions. Regardless, you may contact us to request access, correction or deletion of information you have submitted, and we will respond as reasonably required by law.
We use reasonable administrative and technical measures designed to protect information, but no website or transmission method is completely secure. We retain information only as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described here, legal obligations, dispute resolution and legitimate business needs.
This site is intended for a general adult audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Why Eugene? links to third-party businesses, social platforms, event organizers and mortgage resources. We are not responsible for their privacy practices, content or security.
We may update this policy as the site, vendors or legal requirements change. The date above will be updated when material changes are posted.
Privacy requests may be sent to hducker@cmghomeloans.com until a dedicated Why Eugene? contact address is established.
