OfficeSearchOnline.com
is committed to safeguarding your privacy online. Please read the following
policy to understand how your personal information will be treated as
you make full use of the database. This policy may change from time to
time so please check back periodically.
OfficeSearchOnline.com collects
information in several ways from different parts of our web site.
Registration
Some personal information is gathered when you register. During registration,
we ask for your name and email address. The system will also ask for your
street address, city, state/province, zip/postal code, country, telephone
number, and the URL of your web site, although only fields that are marked
with an asterisk (*) on the registration field are required. This information
is used solely to assist you in navigating the system by automatically
filling in certain forms (such as the ad posting form) with your information
so that you don't have to continually re-enter it. Once you register you
are no longer anonymous to OfficeSearchOnline.com - you have a username
and are able to take full advantage of the many offerings of the OfficeSearchOnline.com.
In addition to registration
we may ask you for personal information at other times, including (but
not limited to) when you place ads or take advantage of the other features
of the OfficeSearchOnline.com database. If you contact us, we may keep
a record of that correspondence. Every page within the OfficeSearchOnline.com
siteincludes a link to this Privacy Policy.
Cookies
As part of offering and providing customizable and personalized services,
the OfficeSearchOnline.com may use cookies to store and sometimes track
information about you. A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent
to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer's hard drive.
Several features of the OfficeSearchOnline.com databaserequire that you
accept cookies in order to work properly. (See "What choices are
available to you regarding collection, use, and distribution of your information"
for more information on cookies.)
Generally, we use cookies for
the following purposes:
(1) To identify and label all
"new" ads since your last visit to the site.
(2) Optionally to permanently
save your password on your computer so you don't have to re-enter it each
time you visit our site.
(3) To enable you to "checklist"
ads that you want to mark for future retrieval and viewing.
Advertising networks that serve
ads onto the OfficeSearchOnline.com may also use their own cookies.
OfficeSearchOnline.com may
also collect IP addresses for system administration and to report aggregate
information to our advertisers.
How your
information is used
The primary goal of the OfficeSearchOnline.com in collecting personal
information is to provide you, the user, with a customized experience
and to assist your navigation throughout the OfficeSearchOnline.com site.
Who is
collecting your information
When you are asked for personal information on the OfficeSearchOnline.com
site, you are sharing that information with the OfficeSearchOnline.com
alone, unless it is specifically stated otherwise. However, some activities
will, by their very nature, result in your personal information being
revealed to other users of the OfficeSearchOnline.com database. For example,
when you enter personal information on the ad posting form, this information
will generally be included in your ad, unless specifically stated otherwise.
With whom
your information may be shared
As a general rule, OfficeSearchOnline.com will not disclose any of your
personally identifiable information except when we have your permission
or under special circumstances, such as when we believe in good faith
that the law requires it or under the circumstances described below. Please
see the Terms of Service or Use Agreements for each of our products and
services for more detailed information about how your personal information
may be shared.
OfficeSearchOnline.com may
disclose account information in special cases when we have reason to believe
that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or
bring legal action against someone who may be violating the Terms of Service
of the OfficeSearchOnline.com or may be causing injury to or interference
with (either intentionally or unintentionally) the rights or property
of the OfficeSearchOnline.com, other users of the OfficeSearchOnline.com,
or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities. OfficeSearchOnline.com
may disclose or access account information when we believe in good faith
that the law requires it and for administrative and other purposes that
we deem necessary to maintain, service, and improve our products and services.
What choices
are available to you regarding collection, use, and distribution of your
information
If you choose not to register or provide personal information, you can
still use most of the OfficeSearchOnline.com database, but you will not
be able to access areas or use features that require registration.
You also have choices with
respect to cookies. By modifying your browser preferences, you have the
choice to accept all cookies, to be notified when a cookie is set, or
to reject all cookies. If you choose to reject all cookies you will be
unable to use those services of the OfficeSearchOnline.com that require
registration in order to participate. These services include the identification
of new ads that have been posted since your last visit, auto-fillin of
the logon form, and the Checklist feature. You can still use most of the
features of the OfficeSearchOnline.com even if you do not accept cookies.
OFFICESEARCHONLINE.COM DOES
NOT SELL OR RENT USER INFORMANTION TO ANYONE. We will notify you at the
time of data collection or transfer if your data will be shared with a
third party and you will always have the option of not permitting the
transfer. If you do not wish to allow your data to be shared, you can
choose not to use a particular service.
How you
can access, update or delete your information
We will provide you with the means to ensure that your personal information
is correct and current. You may edit or delete your user profile at any
time by logging in to our system and clicking on the "My Profile"
link or graphic provided by the system once you are logged in. Once you
have logged onto the system during a given session, wherever you go on
the OfficeSearchOnline.com, your information will stay with you until
or unless you click on the "Logoff" link, which is accessible
from within the "My Profile" screen.
If you are a previously registered
user and you have lost or forgotten your password, you may obtain it by
email by using our "Forgot Password" feature. Click the button
on any login page to request that your password be emailed to you. We
cannot provide your password by any other means.
Your OfficeSearchOnline.com
account can be deleted by a site administrator, but doing so will result
in not being able to access any of the features of the program that require
user registration.
Security
Precautions
Other than the administrator of the OfficeSearchOnline.com or other authorized
personnel of the OfficeSearchOnline.com, you are the only person who has
access to your personal information. Your user registration is password-protected
to prevent unauthorized access.
We recommend that you do not
divulge your password to anyone. OfficeSearchOnline.com will never ask
you for your password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited
email. As an extra security precaution, you may want to logoff once you
have completed a session in the OfficeSearchOnline.com. This is to ensure
that others cannot access your personal information and correspondence
if you share a computer with someone else or are using a computer in a
public place like a library or Internet cafe.
Unfortunately, no data transmission
over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while
we strive to protect your personal information, OfficeSearchOnline.com
cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit
to us or from our online services, and you do so at your own risk. Once
we receive your transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security
on our systems.
Please keep in mind that whenever
you voluntarily disclose personal information online - for example in
ads that you post or through email - that information can be collected
and used by others. In short, if you post personal information online
that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages
from other parties in return. Ultimately, you are solely responsible for
maintaining the secrecy of your passwords and/or any account information.
Please be careful and responsible whenever you're online. |
