2.      The Company Use of Information.  The Company does not sell, share or otherwise provide any Personally Identifiable Information you give to us with any Business Partner (as defined in Section 4) without your consent, which may be obtained through an opt-in or opt-out request, unless required by law, court order or as we state in Section 4.  The Company does reserve the right to share your Personally Identifiable Information with its parent, subsidiary or affiliated entities (“affiliated entities” are those companies owned or controlled by the Company).  We use the collected Personally Identifiable Information to contact you in connection with your use of the services, posting and other activities on the website, to forward you messages, and to operate and provide the Company’s services. These types of communications may contain commercial messages and special offers.  Each communication we send to you, other than reminders and communications sent to you for the sole purpose of addressing a technical or operational issue regarding the Company products or services, give you the opportunity to opt-out of receiving further communications from us.  In addition, we use your Personally Identifiable Information to help us provide you with personalized content, advertising, and commercial messages.

3.      Security of Information.  We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of data.  We restrict access to Personally Identifiable Information to Company employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to operate, develop or improve our products and services. These individuals are bound by confidentiality obligations and may be subject to discipline, including termination and criminal prosecution, if they fail to meet these obligations. Although we make good faith efforts to store the information collected by the Company in a secure operating environment that is not available to the public, we cannot guarantee complete security.  We currently process Personally Identifiable Information on our servers in the United States of America and may in the future utilize servers in other countries.

We require that these parties agree to process such information based on our instructions and in compliance with this Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
  • We have a good faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of such information is reasonably necessary to (a) satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request, (b) enforce applicable Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations thereof, (c) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues, or (d) protect against imminent harm to the rights, property or safety of the Company, its Clients or the public as required or permitted by law.

We may share with third parties certain pieces of aggregated, non-personal information such as the number of Clients who responded to an event promotion, or how many Clients are using the Company service. Such information does not identify you individually. The Company may also correlate or match registered Clients’ information, including Personally Identifiable Information, with information held by our Business Partners to target events and ads or otherwise improve the effectiveness of our service.

In the event of a sale or transfer of the assets of our business (an “Acquisition”), we may transfer or sell information, including Personally Identifiable Information to the acquiring entity.  We will include provisions in any selling agreement that the purchaser treat Personally Identifiable Information in the same manner required by this Privacy Policy, inclusive of any amendments to this Privacy Policy.  If the Company becomes involved in an Acquisition, we will provide notice before personal information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
