5. Confidentiality and Protection of Information

Confidentiality is a fundamental principle of the work carried out by Luxury Property Status.

Information entrusted to us in connection with a property, a client, a potential transaction or a professional assignment is handled with due care and confidentiality, in accordance with applicable law and the nature of the professional relationship.

This includes, where applicable:

  • Property documents, plans, drawings and technical reports;
  • Planning, building, cadastral and property-register documentation;
  • Information concerning ownership, property rights, restrictions and discrepancies;
  • Photographs, videos and other material relating to a property;
  • Information concerning a client's investment plans, commercial interests or proposed transaction;
  • Correspondence and documents exchanged during the assessment or performance of an assignment.

We do not disclose a client's documents or confidential information to other clients, nor do we use such information to benefit other clients or third parties or to compromise a client's commercial opportunities. Information is not made available to other clients simply because they are interested in the same property, area or transaction.

Access to information is restricted to persons who need it for legitimate and defined purposes connected with the requested services, the management of the professional relationship, technical operation or compliance with legal obligations.

Information may be disclosed where necessary to provide the requested services, to authorised professionals or service providers bound by appropriate confidentiality and data protection obligations, or where disclosure is required or permitted by law. It may also be processed where necessary to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.

We take appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect information against unauthorised access, loss, alteration, disclosure or use. However, no electronic transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure in every circumstance.

Confidentiality is maintained within the limits of applicable law and does not prevent disclosures that are legally required or necessary for the proper performance of the services.

The LPS Client Portal is intended to provide a reserved digital environment for the exchange, organisation and management of documents and communications relating to specific professional assignments.

Access is intended for authorised users. Documents and information are handled according to the access permissions and security arrangements applicable to the Portal.

The Portal is used to facilitate the secure management of assignment-related material, which may include technical documentation, photographs, videos, reports and correspondence.
