Privacy

We may collect and use information about you as described in our Privacy Policy.

Third Party Websites

Our website contains links to other websites, including through advertisements. Linking to a third party website does not imply our approval or endorsement of such third party website, its content, or its owners and creators. We do not investigate such third-party websites, and we are not responsible for any third party websites accessed through a link on our website. If you decide to access any third party websites, you should be aware that our terms and policies no longer govern.

This policy describes how we handle information collected and received from Members and visitors to the Site.

A user can browse the website without revealing personal information. However, in order to use the Site, you must become a Member. By becoming a Member, you consent to our collection, storage, use, and disclosure of your personal information as described in this policy.

The information we may collect and store includes the following:

E-mail address, contact information, and other information provided as part of membership registration;
Content, Catalog Information, Profile Information, and other information posted to our Website;
Comments and other postings;
Notices, dispute resolution, and other correspondence through the website or sent physically;
Other information from your interaction with our website and Service, content, and advertising, including computer and connection information, statistics on page views, traffic to and from the website, ad data, internet protocol (IP) address, and standard web log information; and
Supplemental information from third parties (for example, if you incur a debt to us, we may conduct a credit check by obtaining additional information about you from a credit bureau, as permitted by law).

Use of Your Information

Our primary purpose in collecting personal information is to provide a safe, smooth, efficient, and customized experience for the Service. We use such information to:

Provide the Service and customer support you request;
Resolve disputes, collect fees, and troubleshoot problems;
Prevent or respond to prohibited or illegal activities;
Enforce our Member Agreement and Terms of Use;
Customize, measure, and improve our Service and advertising;
Tell you about our Service, Member Content, and promotional offers; and
Compare information for accuracy, and verify it with third parties.

Marketing

Based on the information we collect and receive, we may send marketing communications promoting our Service, Member Content, promotional offers, and other information that may be of interest to you. If you do not want to receive marketing communications from us, simply indicate your preference when you register. You may change your preference at any time on a going-forward basis by changing the settings in your account information.

We will NOT sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes, unless you consent to such disclosure at the time you complete your member registration. You may change your preference at any time on a going-forward basis by changing the settings in your account information.

Disclosure of Your Information

We may disclose personal information to respond to legal requirements, enforce our policies, respond to claims that Content or other material violate the rights of others, or protect anyone’s property or safety. Such information will be disclosed in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

We may also share your personal information with:

Service providers under contract who help with our business operations;
Law enforcement or other governmental officials, in response to a verified request relating to a criminal investigation or alleged illegal activity;
Third parties that provide a valid subpoena or court order; or
Other business entities, should we plan to merge with or be acquired by that business entity.

Information You Share

A Member’s username is connected to all of your activity on our website and is available to other users in your project. So if you associate your real identity with your username, the people to whom you have revealed your name will be able to personally identify your activities on the website. Registration Information will not be visible to visitors or other Members, except if such Registration Information is included in your Profile Information.

Please also be aware that if you access our website from a shared computer (e.g., in an Internet café) certain information about you, such as your username, may be visible to other individuals who use the computer after you.

Cookies

We use “cookies” (small files placed on your hard drive) on certain webpages to help analyze our webpage flow, customize our Service and advertising, measure promotional effectiveness, and promote trust and safety. We also use cookies to identify you and maintain your signed-in status.

We offer certain features that are available only through the use of cookies. You can decline cookies if your browser permits, although doing so may interfere with your use of some of our Services. You may encounter cookies from third parties on certain pages of the website that we do not control (e.g., the PayPal payment gateway). Most cookies are “session cookies,” meaning that they are automatically deleted from your hard drive at the end of a session.

No Spam, Spyware, or Spoofing

We does not tolerate spam. You shall not use our communication tools to send spam or otherwise send content that would violate our Terms of Use. We automatically scan and may manually filter messages to check for spam, viruses, phishing attacks, and other malicious or illegal activity.

If you send an email to an email address that is not registered (e.g., via refer-a-friend or other tools), we do not permanently store that email or use that email address for any marketing purpose. We do not rent or sell these email addresses.

You are not authorized to add other Members’ e-mail addresses, even if a Member publicly displays his/her e-mail address on the website, to your mailing list, without their express consent.

Passcode and Account Protection

We encourage you to use unique numbers, letters, and special characters in setting your account passcode. Do not disclose your passcode to anyone. Please be advised that you are responsible for all actions taken under your username. If you lose control of your password, you may lose substantial control over your personal information and may be subject to legally binding actions taken on your behalf. Therefore, if your passcode has been compromised for any reason, you should immediately change your passcode and notify us if you need assistance. You can change your passcode at any time in your account information.

Accessing, Reviewing, and Changing Your Information

You can see, review, and change most of your Registration Information by signing in to your account. Generally, we will not manually modify your information, because it is very difficult to verify your identity remotely. You must promptly update your Registration Information if it changes or is inaccurate.

Once you make a Comment or other posting, you may not be able to change or remove it. Upon your request, we will close your account and remove your personal information from view as soon as reasonably possible, based on your account activity and in accordance with applicable law. We do retain personal information from closed accounts to comply with law, prevent fraud, collect any fees owed, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigations, enforce the Member Agreement, and take other actions permitted by law.

Security

We will use reasonable security tools (e.g., encryption, passcodes, physical security) to protect information against unauthorized access and disclosure. However, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, and other users may abuse or misuse your information that they collect from the website. Therefore, although we work very hard to protect your privacy, we cannot promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will always remain private.

Third Parties

This policy addresses the use and disclosure of information we collect or receive from you. If you disclose your information to third parties, including other Members, through our Service or other means, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the information you disclose to them. We do not control the use of your information by third parties (except where they act on our behalf), and you are subject to the privacy policies of third parties where applicable.

Amendment

We may amend this policy at any time by posting the amended terms on our website.

COPYRIGHT POLICY

We respect the intellectual property, publicity, and other rights of Members and third parties. Respect for these rights is what enables our Members to benefit from their work. We comply with Title II of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), 17 U.S.C. § 512, as described in this policy.

In appropriate circumstances, we may suspend and/or terminate the accounts of Members who infringe or repeatedly infringe the copyrights or other intellectual property rights of others.

Notice of Infringement

If you believe that your work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, or that your intellectual property rights have been otherwise violated, please notify our Copyright Agent in writing and provide the following information:

An electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive copyright that has been infringed;
Identification of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed;
Identification of the material that you claim is infringing, and the location of such material on our website;
The address, telephone number, and email address where you may be contacted;
A statement that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
A statement that the information in your notice is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

Please note that, under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing may be subject to liability for damages. Please also note that the information provided in your notice may be forwarded to the person who provided the allegedly infringing content.

As required under the DMCA, we will remove or disable the material claimed to be infringement. We may post claimant information in place of the material.

Counter-Notification

If you are notified of a third party claim of infringement, you may choose to send us a “counter notice” in writing including the following information:

Your physical or electronic signature;
Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;
A statement, made under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled; and
Your name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of federal district court for the judicial district in which you are located (or if you are located outside of the United States, the Southern District of New York), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of infringement or an agent of such person.

Please note that, under 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification may be subject to liability.

If you send us a valid counter-notification, we will restore your removed or disabled material, unless our Copyright Agent first receives notice from the complaining party that it has filed a court action to restrain you from engaging in infringing activity related to the material in question.
