Privacy

Privacy policy, in plain language

What we collect

Only what you send us through the consultation form or by email: your name, contact details, the property's city, and whatever you choose to tell us about the estate and its contents. This website sets no advertising trackers and builds no profile of you.

How we use it

To reply to you, schedule and prepare a consultation, and — if you hire us — to research, run, and account for your sale. That is the entire list.

What we never do

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with marketers or data brokers. We do not publish a seller's name in sale advertising. Descriptions of collections shared for research or collector previews are kept general and are never tied to a family's name.

Photographs

Sale photography shows items, not lives: family photographs, personal documents, and identifying papers are never photographed or published, and they are set aside with keepsakes before any camera comes out.

Retention & deletion

Inquiry information is kept only as long as needed to respond and, for clients, to complete the engagement's accounting. Ask us at our contact form and we will delete your information on request, subject to any record-keeping the law requires for completed sales.

Changes

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with its new date. This version is dated November 2026.
