CoStar Lease AnalysisTM You own the lease information you submit to Lease Analysis. What's yours stays yours, and you can do anything you want with your data. If you are a commercial real estate owner, investor, broker or property manager, as long as you are a client, CoStar will always provide you access to your information in Lease Analysis at your request. And if you are a firm that owns, invests in, brokers, or manages commercial real estate, as long as you are a client, we will also always provide you with access to the lease information submitted by your users at your request. CoStar will protect the lease information you submit and will treat it confidentially. This means that the researchers that collect the data in CoStar cannot see your information and that CoStar will secure it in a separate database. CoStar will also never disclose or make identifiable the details of any specific lease that you submit, such as the property address or owner or tenant name. Instead, when you upload lease information to Lease Analysis, you grant CoStar permission to aggregate that information, identify trends and disclose those trends within analyses or reports we may provide to our customers. Any such analysis or report will not include the details of any submitted lease and will not otherwise disclose information sufficient to identify any lease you submit. We will apply a "Rule of 5". This means that CoStar will only disclose aggregated lease data based on information taken from 5 or more leases, involving at least 5 different buildings, owners and tenants. For example, a report provided by CoStar analyzing effective rents in Toronto, Ontario would include aggregated effective rent information taken from a minimum of 5 leases involving at least 5 different buildings, owners and tenants, and the report would never disclose the specific details of a lease you submitted. In the event that you submit any personal information to Lease Analysis, you hereby represent and warrant that you have all consents necessary to share such information. CoStar Lease CompsTM When you create your own lease comp in CoStar Lease CompsTM, we not only protect the lease comps you add in a secure and separate database and prevent anyone at CoStar from seeing or accessing them, but we also do not use the information for any purpose, including aggregating data from comps you enter.
