Pursuant to the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”), this Privacy Notice provides California residents with a description of our online and offline practices regarding the collection, use, sale, and disclosure of their Personal Information. Under the CCPA, “Personal Information” is information that identifies, relates to, or could reasonably be linked with a California resident or household. The CCPA, however, does not apply to certain information, such as information subject to certain federal privacy laws, such as the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (“GLBA”). As a result, this disclosure does not apply with respect to information subject to the GLBA that we collect about California residents who request or purchase securities from Independence Realty Trust, Inc., for their personal, family or household purposes.
We are providing this Privacy Notice in addition to the information contained in our Privacy Notice: /privacy-notice
