Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

AgentCompare.ie ("we", "us") helps property sellers in Ireland compare PSRA-licensed estate agents. We are the data controller for personal information processed through this website. You can contact us at hello@agentcompare.ie.

2. Information we collect

• Information you provide: address or Eircode, property details (type, bedrooms, selling timeline), email address, and any other details you submit.
• Contact details for valuation requests: if you request a valuation, you may provide your full name, phone number, and email so the selected agents can reach you.
• Optional mortgage review preference: if you opt in, we store that preference and may share your contact details with our QFA-approved mortgage partner panel.
• Usage data: pages viewed, clicks, and basic device information used to keep the site running and improve performance.
• Local storage: we use browser storage (for example, session storage) to remember your search details during a session.

3. How we use your information

• To build your shortlist of agents and show comparison results.
• To deliver valuation requests to the agents you choose.
• To arrange an optional mortgage review if you explicitly opt in.
• To respond to inquiries and provide support.
• To maintain site security, prevent abuse, and improve our services.

4. Legal bases for processing (GDPR)

• Consent: when you request a valuation or contact us.
• Contract: to provide the service you request.
• Legitimate interests: to operate, secure, and improve the platform.
• Legal obligations: where we must comply with applicable laws.

5. How we share information

• Agents you select: we only share your contact details with the agents you choose to contact.
• Mortgage partner panel (opt-in only): if you tick the mortgage review option, we may share your name, phone, email, and basic property context with our QFA-approved mortgage partners so they can contact you.
• Service providers: hosting, infrastructure, and operational tools that help us run the site.
• Legal requirements: if required by law or to protect our rights.

We do not sell your personal information.

6. International transfers

Some service providers may process data outside the EEA. When this happens, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.

7. Retention

We keep personal information only as long as needed to provide the service, comply with legal obligations, or resolve disputes. We then delete or anonymize it.

8. Your rights

You have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to the processing of your personal information, and to request data portability. You can also withdraw consent at any time. To exercise your rights, contact us at hello@agentcompare.ie.

You may also lodge a complaint with the Data Protection Commission in Ireland.

9. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect your information. No system is 100% secure, so please use the site responsibly.
