Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 16, 2026
Russ Trading Group LLC ("Russ Trading Group," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect information when you visit russtradinggroup.com (the "Site") or otherwise communicate with us, including by phone, text message, or email.
Information We Collect
When you submit a form on our Site or otherwise contact us, we may collect:
- Your name, email address, and phone number
- Property location and approximate acreage
- Any additional details you choose to share about a property
- Basic technical information such as browser type and IP address, collected automatically when you visit the Site
How We Use Your Information
We use the information you provide to:
- Evaluate your property and prepare a cash offer
- Contact you by phone, email, or text message regarding your inquiry or property
- Communicate about the acquisition and closing process
- Improve our Site and services
SMS / Text Messaging
If you provide your mobile phone number, you may choose to receive text messages from Russ Trading Group. We request separate consent for two categories of messages, and you may opt into either, both, or neither:
- Non-marketing messages — messages directly related to a property inquiry you've submitted, such as updates on your offer status, requests for information, or details about the closing process.
- Marketing messages — promotional messages, such as general offers or announcements not tied to an inquiry you've already submitted.
Consent to either category is optional and is never required in order to submit a form, receive a cash offer, or otherwise do business with us. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.
You can opt out of either or both categories at any time by replying STOP to any message. You will receive a one-time confirmation that you have been unsubscribed, and no further messages in that category will be sent unless you opt back in. For help, reply HELP or contact us at mike@russtradinggroup.com.
We do not sell, rent, or share your mobile phone number or SMS opt-in data with third parties or affiliates for their marketing purposes. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties for marketing purposes.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We do not use cookies, analytics, or tracking technologies to monitor your activity on our Site, and we do not use third-party advertising trackers. Our website hosting provider automatically logs basic technical information (such as IP address, browser type, and access times) for standard security and operational purposes, as is common with any website hosting service. This information is not used to build a marketing or advertising profile of visitors.
Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the information you provide, including transmitting data over encrypted (HTTPS) connections and limiting access to your information to those who need it to operate our business. While no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, we work to use commercially reasonable safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information collected.
How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with:
- Title companies and closing agents involved in a transaction with you
- Service providers who help us operate our business (e.g., hosting, form processing), under obligations to protect your data
- Government authorities, if required by law or legal process
Data Retention
We retain your information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law.
Your Choices
You may opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP. You may request that we delete your information by emailing mike@russtradinggroup.com. We will respond to reasonable requests as required by applicable law.
Children's Privacy
Our Site and services are not directed to individuals under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
