Last Updated: September 8, 2026
HomeIndexer.ca and Sattar Team provide real estate and related services in connection with HOMELIFE/BAYVIEW REALTY INC., Brokerage, independently owned & operated.
This Cookie Policy explains how cookies and similar technologies may be used on HomeIndexer.ca, including related website functionality involving homeindexer.ca and homes.homeindexer.ca.
For more information about how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information, please review our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small pieces of information that a website may store on or access through your browser or device.
Cookies and similar technologies can support website operation, security, preferences, analytics, and advertising measurement.
Some website technologies may process technical information without storing a traditional cookie on your device.
2. Essential Technologies
We use essential cookies and similar technologies where reasonably necessary to operate and secure the website.
These technologies may be used to maintain website functionality, prevent abuse, remember privacy choices, maintain necessary sessions, and provide functions requested by visitors.
Essential technologies may operate even when optional analytics or advertising technologies are declined, where permitted by applicable law.
One essential cookie currently used by HomeIndexer.ca is:
| Cookie | Purpose | Typical Duration |
|---|---|---|
wpconsent_preferences | Stores the visitor’s cookie-consent preferences | 30 days |
The specific duration may change if our consent-management configuration is updated.
3. Analytics Technologies
With consent where required, HomeIndexer.ca uses Google Analytics 4 to understand how visitors use our websites and to measure website performance.
Analytics information may include information about page views, navigation, referral sources, browser or device characteristics, website interactions, and form or lead-submission activity.
We do not describe analytics information as necessarily anonymous. Depending on the technology and circumstances, analytics services may process identifiers and technical information associated with a browser or device.
The Google Analytics cookies currently verified on HomeIndexer.ca after analytics consent are:
| Cookie | Purpose | Default Duration |
|---|---|---|
_ga | Helps distinguish users for analytics measurement | 2 years |
_ga_<container-id> | Helps maintain session state for Google Analytics 4 | 2 years |
The exact _ga_<container-id> name may vary according to the Google Analytics configuration used on the website.
4. Advertising and Conversion Measurement
We may use Google Ads and related Google measurement technologies to understand whether advertising contributes to actions such as website visits, property inquiries, or lead-form submissions.
Google Consent Mode communicates consent choices to supported Google services so that Analytics and advertising-related tags can adjust their behaviour according to the visitor’s selections.
Google distinguishes consent for analytics storage, advertising storage, advertising user data, and advertising personalization.
HomeIndexer.ca does not currently list a separate marketing cookie merely because an advertising-measurement service exists. Specific marketing or advertising cookies will be disclosed when they are actually configured or detected as part of our website implementation.
5. Cookie Consent and Preferences
Where applicable, HomeIndexer.ca provides a cookie-consent banner or preference tool.
Visitors may choose to accept optional technologies, reject optional technologies, or manage available categories.
Our current consent categories may include:
Essential — technologies required for website operation and security.
Statistics — analytics technologies used to understand website usage and measure performance.
Marketing — advertising-related technologies where such technologies are enabled and require this category.
Your choices may affect which optional technologies operate and the amount of analytics or advertising-measurement information available to us.
Rejecting optional technologies should not prevent essential website functionality from operating, although some optional functionality or measurement may be unavailable.
6. Google Consent Mode
HomeIndexer.ca uses Google Consent Mode with its consent-management system.
Consent Mode allows supported Google tags to adjust their behaviour according to the consent choices communicated by the website.
For example, when analytics storage is denied, Google Analytics does not store the Analytics client identifier in the _ga cookie.
Depending on the applicable Google configuration and consent status, limited consent-aware measurement may occur without the use of analytics or advertising cookies.
7. HomeIndexer.ca and homes.homeindexer.ca
Visitors may move between homeindexer.ca and homes.homeindexer.ca when searching properties, viewing listings, registering, or submitting an inquiry.
Cookies or similar technologies may be used across these related subdomains for purposes such as website functionality, property-search functionality, session continuity, preferences, analytics, and advertising attribution or conversion measurement where permitted.
Personal information submitted through listing or inquiry forms is addressed in our Privacy Policy.
8. IDX Broker
HomeIndexer.ca uses IDX Broker to provide property-search, listing, registration, and inquiry functionality, including functionality available through homes.homeindexer.ca.
IDX Broker or related property-search functionality may use cookies or similar technologies where reasonably necessary to provide these services.
Because IDX technology and configurations may change, we do not represent that a fixed list of IDX-related cookies will remain unchanged indefinitely.
Where specific cookies are identified and relevant to our consent disclosures, we intend to reflect them through our cookie-management system or policy.
9. Security Technologies
Our websites and forms may use technologies such as Google reCAPTCHA, anti-spam tools, security services, and similar safeguards.
These technologies may process technical information to help prevent automated submissions, spam, fraud, abuse, or other security threats.
Security technologies may operate where reasonably necessary to protect the website and its users, subject to applicable law.
10. Changes to Cookies and Technologies
The specific cookies and technologies used on HomeIndexer.ca may change as website software, plugins, analytics services, advertising services, IDX functionality, security services, or other technologies are updated.
For that reason, this policy does not attempt to guarantee a permanent list of every possible cookie or technical identifier.
We periodically review our cookie configuration and disclosures and may update this policy when our practices materially change.
11. Processing Outside Canada
Some service providers involved in analytics, advertising measurement, IDX functionality, security, hosting, or website technology may operate or process information outside Canada, including in the United States.
We do not represent that every provider stores information in a particular country.
Where personal information is processed outside Canada, it may be subject to the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is processed and may be accessible to courts, law-enforcement agencies, national-security authorities, or other governmental authorities in accordance with applicable law.
Canadian privacy guidance expects organizations to be transparent about processing outside Canada and to take appropriate measures when using service providers.
Additional information is available in our Privacy Policy.
12. Visitors Outside Canada
HomeIndexer.ca is primarily directed toward Canadian real estate and related services.
Visitors located outside Canada may have additional privacy or cookie rights where the laws of their jurisdiction apply to our activities.
Where an applicable law requires additional consent, notices, or controls, we intend to provide them as required.
Nothing in this Cookie Policy is intended to state that a particular foreign privacy law applies to HomeIndexer.ca when it does not.
13. Managing Your Choices
You can manage optional cookie choices through the cookie-preference controls provided on HomeIndexer.ca where available.
You may also delete or block cookies through your browser settings.
Changing or deleting cookies may affect certain website functionality or require you to make your consent selections again.
14. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy when our technologies, practices, service providers, or applicable requirements change.
The Last Updated date at the top of this page identifies the most recent revision.
