Sources

Updated on

Leiloeiro does not create notices. All the information about properties comes from the sources on this page. On each property page we indicate the source, the date of the last check and the link to the official notice.

The current status of each source (active or not, and the date of the last check) is in the coverage table on the Methodology page. A source is only collected when access is public and its rules allow it.

Sources of sale notices

Attribution and licences

  • Notices and notices of sale. They belong to the entities that publish them. Leiloeiro extracts the facts of each notice (type of property, location, values, dates, status), identifies the source and links to the original. We do not reproduce the documents to the public.
  • Photographs. They belong to the sources or to their authors. We only show them, in reduced format and with the source indicated, when the source's terms allow it. In other cases, we point to the official notice.
  • INE and CAOP data. They are used under the reuse conditions defined by each entity, with the attribution indicated above.
  • Base map. The map data is from OpenStreetMap and its contributors, made available under the Open Database License.
  • Leiloeiro statistics. The aggregate statistics we publish in Open data can be reused under the CC BY 4.0 licence, with attribution to Leiloeiro. See the Legal Notice.

Leiloeiro has no institutional link to these entities and does not act on their behalf.

For entities that publish notices

We want more people to know about the sales and to reach the official platform. If you represent one of these entities and want to talk about how the information is collected or presented, correct something or arrange access to the data, write to the contact page.
