DatingSiteOffers.com Privacy Policy Last Updated: January 30, 2007
DatingSiteOffers.com
has created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our
firm commitment to privacy. The following discloses our information
gathering and usage practices. DatingSiteOffers.com is committed
to protecting your privacy. We want your time with us spent meeting
new people and not worrying about your privacy. Therefore we
have an extremely simple policy.
If you have questions or concerns regarding this statement, you
should contact privacy@DatingSiteOffers.com.
Our Community Mailing List: DatingSiteOffers.com
has a community mailing list. If you opt-in and provide your
name and email address, this information will be stored on the
DatingSiteOffers.com servers. This information is used to provide
you information about special offers provided by the dating services
and providers listed on our site. Messages are sent on an occasional
basis. You have the option to opt-out of the list any time by
sending a message to optout@datingsiteoffers.com. Your privacy
will never be compromised.
DatingSiteOffers.com presents summaries and review information
about several online dating services. Each of the services presented
has their own privacy policy. We recommend that you spend some
time reviewing the privacy policies of those services you use.
In order to use the several of the Web sites summarized here, you
must first complete the registration form of the given dating
service by creating a user name and password. During registration
you are required to give contact information (such as your email
address). The dating services use this information to contact
you about the services on their sites in which you have expressed
interest.
You have the option to provide demographic information (such as
age, income level, gender and/or religious affiliations if any)
to the dating services; we encourage you to submit this information
so the services can provide you a more personalized experience
on their site.
1. Third Party Access to Your Email Address: The
dating services that obtain your information are the sole owner
of the information and do not sell or rent your email address
to third parties.
2. Member Email Communication: The
dating services listed on our site send its members the types of email
they have elected to receive, including customary business communications
(address confirmation, renewal notifications, dating matches, new feature/product
and event offerings directly related to the community. Further, it is each
dating services policy to remove members from any mailing
list to which they have subscribed upon request (members will continue to receive
customary business communications from dating services). You can always change
your email preferences from the appropriate page on the dating site.
Every opt-in email communication from the dating services will contain clear
and obvious instructions for how the member can remove himself or herself from
that mailing list.
2a. Email "Opt-In/Out" Lists: Many of the dating
services have formed alliances with several informative online companies. Such
companies offer goods and services via email to the dating service membership.
You as a member can voluntarily select to "opt-out" to
not receive information from these companies. After choosing to opt-out to
not receive offers for goods and services, you can at any time choose to "opt-in" to
begin receiving these communications.
3. Use of Membership Registration Data: Demographic and profile
data is also collected at many of the dating sites. They use this data to tailor
your experience at their site, showing content that they think you might
be interested in, and displaying the content according to your preferences.
They do this in two ways. First, they analyze members’ information in aggregate
- that is, they collect information about thousands of site visits and analyze
it as a whole. This kind of study involves looking for trends among many visitors
to their sites, rather than analyzing information about any individual
member. Examples include researching which parts of the site are accessed most
frequently, or determining which products are most attractive to our users.
Second, they may use information gathered during your visit to help customize
their communications with you at an individual level.
4. Online Member Surveys: The dating sites may periodically
conduct individual voluntary member surveys. We encourage members to participate
in these surveys because they provide the dating sites with important information
that helps them to improve the types of services they offer, and how they provide
them to you. The responses the dating services collect in online surveys are
anonymous to them. In the end, they hope to tailor their communications with
you and site layout to fit your needs --- so that you receive more of what
you want from them and less of what you don't want.
5. Service Providers: Many of the dating sites use third
parties to provide some products or services. Information is shared as necessary
for the third party to provide that service. For example, most services use
an outside company to process your credit card information. These third parties
are not permitted to use your personal information for any purpose unrelated
to providing that product or service.
6. Instant Messaging and Other Site Features: If you use
many site’s instant messaging systems or upload a photos, or use bulletin
boards or chat rooms on the sites (if those features are available on the site),
you should be aware that any personally identifiable information you submit
there can be read, collected, or used by other users of the site forums, and
could be used to send you unsolicited messages. The dating sites are not responsible
for the personally identifiable information you choose to submit in these forums.
If you choose to use dating sites' referral services to tell a
friend about their site, the dating site will ask you for your
friend’s name and email address. They will automatically send your
friend a one-time email inviting him or her to visit the site.
The sites use this information for the sole purpose of sending
this one-time email and tracking the success of their referral
program.
Your friend may contact the dating site at the listed contact information
to request that they remove this information from their database.
7. Orders: If you purchase a product or service
from any of the dating services, they may request certain personally
identifiable information from you on their order form. You must
provide contact information (such as name, email, and shipping
address) and financial information (such as credit card number,
expiration date). The sites use this information for billing purposes
and to fill your orders. If the dating service has trouble processing
an order, they will use this information to contact you. Furthermore,
If you apply for a loan for a product or service requiring financial
information on a dating site, they'll require that you provide
certain personally identifiable information, including your name,
address, phone number, credit card number and the last four digits
of your Social Security number. This information is necessary to
process your application and to contact you.
8. The Security of Your Information: All of the dating sites
listed on this site work diligently to protect the security of your personal
information, including credit card information, during transmission by using
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input.
Your data is kept in a highly secure environment protected from access by unauthorized
parties. It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to
your password and to your computer by ensuring you logoff when finished visiting
a dating site using a shared computer (such as computers from work, cyber-cafes
or libraries).
9. Am I protected by Law?: All dating sites are subject to
it just like everyone else. They're required to give information to legal authorities
and other parties if they have the proper authorization such as a search warrant
or court order. Short of that, the only people authorized to view your contact
or billing information are authorized employees at the dating service, acting
within the scope of their duties.
10. Cookies: Cookies are small pieces of information that
are stored in a browser-related file on your computer's hard drive when you
use our Web site or one of the dating sites. They use cookies to improve the
member experience, like allowing the member to login without typing the registered
email address or registration number and password. They also use them to deliver
information and fresh content specific to your interests. Cookies are widely
used on most major Web sites and ARE NOT tied to a users personal information.
11. Third-Party Cookies and Pixel GIFs: Many sites may use
third-party advertising companies to serve ads on their behalf. These companies
may employ cookies and action tags (also known as single pixel GIFs or Web
beacons) to measure advertising effectiveness. Our understanding is that information
that these third parties collect via cookies and action tags is anonymous and
we do not enable third party advertising companies to have access to any of
the personal information you have provided to us or the dating sites.
12. Browser Monitor: The dating sites may employ a browser
monitor within Web pages on their site in order
to optimize your user experience. Browser monitors help identify browser status
and the client-side metrics relating to page loading. The dating services constantly
seek ways to improve page load times for their members and may ultimately use
these metrics for such purposes. Any such browser monitor will only be active
while the use is active on the given dating site. For your protection,
any such browser monitor will not require an executable (*.exe) application.
13. IP Address and Log Files: Like most Internet sites, the
dating sites use your IP address and standard log files to help diagnose problems
with their servers, and to administer their Web site. Your IP address and referring
URLs also are used to gather broad demographic information. This information
is distributed to current and potential advertisers, but only in aggregate
form. It does not contain information that identifies individual members.
14. Advertisers Privacy Policies: Some dating service advertisers
and affiliate partners may request information directly from users, or link
to sites that do so. The dating sites have no control over its advertisers'
privacy policies, and encourages users to review such policies prior to submitting
any personal information to them.
15. Third-Party Links: Each dating site contains non-advertising
links to a variety of third party sites to enhance the member experience. The
dating sites have no control of either the content or privacy policies of such
sites, nor should such links be considered an endorsement of these sites except
where otherwise noted.
16. Children/Minors: Protecting the privacy of the young
is especially important to us and the dating services listed on our site. For
that reason, we never collect or maintain information at our Web site from
those we actually know are under 18, and no part of our Web site should be
used by those under 18. If we learn that anyone under 18 is using the site,
that person will be blocked from accessing the site.
17. Updates to our information practices: From time to time,
we and the dating sites make changes to our information practices or alter
the functionality of our Web site. We always update this statement accordingly,
so we encourage you to periodically review this page for the latest information
on privacy practices at our site. We encourage to review the privacy policies
of the dating sites also. If we make material changes to this policy, we will
notify you in this Privacy Policy, by email, or by means of a notice on our
home page.
18. Abuse of Terms of Use: We have the right to share your
name and contact information with our attorneys and law enforcement officials,
if needed, in the event we believe you have breached our Terms of Use.
19. Transfer of Our Assets: Maintaining the confidentiality
of their customers' information is an important part of the dating service
business, and the dating sites are not in the business of selling or sharing
it with others. However, as they continue to develop their business, they might
sell or buy assets. In such transactions, customer information generally is
one of the transferred business assets. In the event that a dating site is,
or substantially all of the sites assets are, acquired by another
company, customer information will be one of the transferred assets and that
company may revise their Privacy Policy consistent with the updates to their
information practices as may be listed in their privacy policy.

practices to privacy@datingsiteoffers.com.
