strives to offer its visitors the many advantages of Internet technology and to
provide an interactive and personalized experience. We may use Personally Identifiable
Information (your name, e-mail address, street address, telephone number) subject
to the terms of this privacy policy. We will never sell, barter, or rent your
email address to any unauthorized third party. Period. Our
Commitment To Your Privacy Your
privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy we provide this notice
explaining our online information practices and the choices you can make about
the way your information is collected and used. To make this notice easy to find,
we make it available on our homepage and at every point where personally identifiable
information may be requested. How
we gather information from users How
we collect and store information depends on the page you are visiting, the activities
in which you elect to participate and the services provided. For example, you
may be asked to provide information when you register for access to certain portions
of our site or request certain features, such as newsletters or when you make
a purchase. You may provide information when you participate in sweepstakes and
contests, message boards and chat rooms, and other interactive areas of our site.
Like most Web
sites, 50Blues.com also collects information automatically and through the use
of electronic tools that may be transparent to our visitors. For example, we may
log the name of your Internet Service Provider or use cookie technology to recognize
you and hold information from your visit. Among other things, the cookie may store
your user name and password, sparing you from having to re-enter that information
each time you visit, or may control the number of times you encounter a particular
advertisement while visiting our site. As
we adopt additional technology, we may also gather information through other means.
In certain cases, you can choose not to provide us with information, for example
by setting your browser to refuse to accept cookies, but if you do you may be
unable to access certain portions of the site or may be asked to re-enter your
user name and password, and we may not be able to customize the site's features
according to your preferences. What
we do with the information we collect Like
other Web publishers, we collect information to enhance your visit and deliver
more individualized content and advertising. We respect your privacy and do not
share your information with anyone. Aggregated
Information (information that does not personally identify you) may be used in
many ways. For example, we may combine information about your usage patterns with
similar information obtained from other users to help enhance our site and services
(e.g., to learn which pages are visited most or what features are most attractive).
Aggregated Information may occasionally be shared with our advertisers and business
partners. Again, this information does not include any Personally Identifiable
Information about you or allow anyone to identify you individually. We
may use Personally Identifiable Information collected on 50Blues.com to communicate
with you about your registration and customization preferences; our Terms of Service
and privacy policy; services and products offered by 50Blues.com and other topics
we think you might find of interest. Personally
Identifiable Information collected by 50Blues.com may also be used for other purposes,
including but not limited to site administration, troubleshooting, processing
of e-commerce transactions, administration of sweepstakes and contests, and other
communications with you. Certain third parties who provide technical support for
the operation of our site (our Web hosting service for example) may access such
information. We
will use your information only as permitted by law. In addition, from time to
time as we continue to develop our business, we may sell, buy, merge or partner
with other companies or businesses. In such transactions, user information may
be among the transferred assets. We may also disclose your information in response
to a court order, at other times when we believe we are reasonably required to
do so by law, in connection with the collection of amounts you may owe to us,
and/or to law enforcement authorities whenever we deem it appropriate or necessary.
Please note we may not provide you with notice prior to disclosure in such cases. Affiliated
sites, linked sites and advertisements 50Blues.com
expects its partners, advertisers and affiliates to respect the privacy of our
users. Be aware, however, that third parties, including our partners, advertisers,
affiliates and other content providers accessible through our site, may have their
own privacy and data collection policies and practices. For example, during your
visit to our site you may link to, or view as part of a frame on a 50Blues.com
page, certain content that is actually created or hosted by a third party. Also,
through 50Blues.com you may be introduced to, or be able to access, information,
Web sites, features, contests or sweepstakes offered by other parties. 50Blues.com
is not responsible for the actions or policies of such third parties. You should
check the applicable privacy policies of those third parties when providing information
on a feature or page operated by a third party. While
on our site, our advertisers, promotional partners or other third parties may
use cookies or other technology to attempt to identify some of your preferences
or retrieve information about you. For example, some of our advertising is served
by third parties and may include cookies that enable the advertiser to determine
whether you have seen a particular advertisement before. Other features available
on our site may offer services operated by third parties and may use cookies or
other technology to gather information. 50Blues.com does not control the use of
this technology by third parties or the resulting information, and is not responsible
for any actions or policies of such third parties. You
should also be aware that if you voluntarily disclose Personally Identifiable
Information on message boards or in chat areas, that information can be viewed
publicly and can be collected and used by third parties without our knowledge
and may result in unsolicited messages from other individuals or third parties.
Such activities are beyond the control of 50Blues.com and this policy. Our
Commitment To Data Security To
prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use
of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial
procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online. Our
