PRIVACY POLICY

Protecting your private information is our priority. This Privacy Policy governs data collection and usage of the products, services, software, platform and websites (collectively, “Services”) provided by CNET Global Solutions and any of our affiliates (collectively, “CNET”). By using the Services, you consent to the data practices described in this policy as well as our Terms of Service. If you do not agree to any part of this Privacy Policy, then you should stop accessing the Services.

COLLECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

CNET may collect personally identifiable information, depending on your level of activity and interaction with this site. CNET may also collect anonymous demographic information, which is not unique to you. Information about your computer hardware and software also may be automatically collected by CNET. This information can include: your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times and referring website addresses. This information is used by CNET for the operation of the service, to maintain quality of the service, and to provide general statistics regarding use of the Services.

Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through the Services, this information may be collected and used by others. CNET encourages you to review the privacy statements of websites you choose to link to from our website so that you can understand how those websites collect, use and share your information. CNET is not responsible for the privacy statements or other content on websites outside of the websites we operate.

USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

CNET may collect and use your personal information to operate our website and deliver the Services we offer. CNET may also use your personally identifiable information to inform you of other products or services available from CNET and its affiliates. CNET may also contact you to participate in surveys to conduct research about your opinion of current services or of potential new services that may be offered.

CNET does not sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties. CNET may, from time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a particular offering that may be of interest to you. In those cases, your unique personally identifiable information (e-mail, name, address, telephone number) is not transferred to the third party without your express consent. In addition, CNET may share data with trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis, send you email or postal mail, provide customer support, or arrange for deliveries. CNET may share your information with third parties who perform tasks required to complete a purchase transaction. All such third parties are prohibited from using your personal information except to provide these Services, and they are obligated to maintain the confidentiality of your information.

CNET keeps track of the pages visited within our website in order to determine what Services are the most popular. This data is used to deliver customized content and advertising within the website we operate to users whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area. CNET uses tracking tools to collect information that helps us provide our Service to you. Please note that any “do not track” signals sent by your web browser or other mechanism have no effect on the collection of personally identifiable information by CNET. In addition, other parties who perform data analytics for CNET may collect personally identifiable information about your online activities when you use our Services. Third party affiliates of CNET may have different policies with respect to “do not track” signals and CNET makes no representations with respect to such policies.

CNET only shares browser-level data through third party vendor tracking such as Google Analytics. Users can opt out of these advertising features by visiting Google or resources like the NAI consumer opt-out page.

CNET may disclose personal information when we are required to or we believe it is appropriate to comply with the law (e.g., a lawful subpoena, warrant or court order); to enforce or apply this Privacy Policy or our other policies or agreements; to initiate, render, bill, and collect for amounts owed to us; to protect our or our users’ rights, property or safety; to protect our users from fraudulent, abusive, or unlawful use of the Services; or if we believe that an emergency involving the danger of death or serious physical injury to any person requires or justifies disclosure of personal information.
Information about our customers, including personal information, may be disclosed as part of any merger, acquisition, debt financing, sale of company assets, as well as in the event of an insolvency, bankruptcy or receivership in which personal information could be transferred to third parties as one of CNET’s business assets. In such an event, we will attempt to notify you before your personal information is transferred, but you may not have the right to opt out of any such transfer.

SECURITY OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

You are responsible for safeguarding and preventing unauthorized access to the user information and password that you may use to access our Services. You agree not to disclose your password to any third party and you are responsible for any activity using your account, whether or not you authorized that activity. Please immediately notify CNET of any unauthorized use of your account.

CNET secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. In addition, CNET secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure.

CHANGES TO PRIVACY POLICY

CNET may change the provisions of this Privacy Policy at any time, and will always post the most up-to-date version on our website.
