Privacy Policy
PRIVACY POLICY
Pawlabs.co has created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to our visitors` and participants` privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for our web site.
- Collection of Information
Information is collected from our users at several different points during their visit to our site.
At various other points during your visit to our site, you may be asked to provide information about yourself. Participation in, or the use of, other services that require the input of additional information is completely voluntary on your part, and you have the choice about whether to disclose the information necessary to use these features of our site.
In addition to the information that you actively provide to us, we collect information about how you interact with our site. We collect passive information in order to improve your experience at the site and to compile broad aggregate demographic data and related usage information for internal purposes and for disclosure to third parties, such as advertisers and content partners. The types of passive information collected by this site may include IP addresses, the type of browser being used, pages visited, and how long a user stays on our site.
- Use of Information
We may use your information in order to customize our site and enhance your overall experience at our site. We try to recognize you using various methods. Once we recognize you, pages, advertisements and other content are customized for you so that you can see what interests you most. In addition, as described above, we utilize passive information to learn more about how you interact with our site. This passive information may be combined with your other information for purposes such as testing and improving your experience at our site and the compilation of broad aggregate demographic data and related usage information for internal purposes and for disclosure to third parties, such as advertisers and content partners. This aggregate passive information does not contain any personal information that can identify an individual user.
We may use your contact information periodically in order to send you e-mails regarding updates to our site and our services. The frequency of these messages will vary depending upon your profile. In addition, we may send you free informational newsletters or notices relating to topics that may be of special interest to you. Finally, if you specifically provide us with permission at the time of registration, you may also receive commercial e-mails. Out of respect for the privacy of our users, we allow you to opt-out of receiving newsletters and/or commercial e-mails whenever such messages are sent by us, as described below. E-mail messages from third parties are not governed by the opt-out provisions of this Privacy Policy, but all such third parties are strongly encouraged to include opt-out procedures in their messages to you.
- Sharing Information
We will not knowingly sell, share, rent or otherwise transfer your information other than in accordance with the terms set forth in this Privacy Policy.
We may ask you whether information about you may be sent to third parties who have products, services and opportunities which may be useful to you. We understand how important your information is to you. Therefore, we do not share any information that can be tied to you without your permission. If you give your permission to allow third parties to contact you, personal information about you (such as your contact information and other information collected during your visit to our site) may be shared with data aggregators, marketers (possibly in the form of list rental), and other organizations. Regardless of your decision regarding the sharing of your personal information, we may share broad aggregate demographic data and related usage information with our business partners. This aggregate information does not contain any personal information that can identify an individual user.
From time to time, we may decide that it is more efficient to use third parties to perform specific services, such as sending newsletters to our users. If we use a third party to provide specific services, then information (such as contact information) may be shared with that party to the extent necessary for the third party to provide these services. These third party service providers are only allowed to use personally identifiable information for the purpose of providing the specific services requested by us. The third party services covered by this paragraph do not include links to third party sites found on our site.
While we strive to protect the personal information of its users, we will release personal information if required by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary or appropriate.
