Thank you for visiting www.footbo.com (together with all
content on the site and other websites operated by Footbo Ltd. or its affiliates
(“Footbo”) (the “Site”)). Your privacy is important to us. To better protect
your privacy, we provide this privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) explaining our
online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your
information is collected and used at this Site. This Privacy Policy forms part
of the Terms of Use, available at Terms of use. Introduction
We are committed to
respecting your online privacy and recognize your need for appropriate
protection and management of any personally identifiable information ("Personal
Information") you share with us.
“Personal Information”
means any information that may be used to identify an individual, including, but
not limited to, a first and last name, pen name, personal profile, a home or
other physical address and an email address or other contact information.
Currently, we do not
require you to provide Personal Information in order to have access to our Site.
Certain features, however, are only accessible by registered users. However, in
order to provide you with the services given under the Site, you must create an
account (“Account”) and provide us with your email address, a password that you
will use for your Account and other specified information. We shall then send
you an email to your email address to instruct you how to confirm your
registration.
The Way We Use Personal
Information
If you submit Personal
Information to us through the Site, then we will use your Personal Information
to improve our services to you, to contact you and to identify and authenticate
your access to the Site’s services that you are authorized to access.
We may transfer your
Personal Information within Footbo or to Footbo's third-party service providers,
but only to provide services on the Site or to you, across borders, and from
your country or jurisdiction to other countries or jurisdictions around the
world.
We may provide Personal
Information and non-personally-identifiable information to our subsidiaries,
affiliated companies, or other businesses or persons for the purpose of
processing such information on our behalf. We require that these parties agree
to process such information in compliance with our Privacy Policy, and we use
reasonable efforts to limit their use of such information and to use other
appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
We may also use your email
address to send updates, a newsletter or news regarding our services, or, if you
have permitted us to do so, to those of our partners who may have relevant
offers. You may choose not to receive email of this type by sending a single
email with the subject "BLOCK" to privacy. Please note that the email must come from
the email account you wish to block.
Cookies and Other
Tracking Technologies
Some of our Site pages
utilize "cookies" and other tracking technologies. A "cookie" is a small text
file that may be used, for example, to collect information about Site activity.
Some cookies and other technologies may serve to recall Personal Information
previously indicated by a Site user. Most browsers allow you to control cookies,
including whether or not to accept them and how to remove them.
You may set most browsers
to notify you if you receive a cookie, or you may choose to block cookies with
your browser, but please note that if you choose to erase or block your cookies,
you will need to re-enter certain identifying information, should we in the
future require such information, to gain access to certain parts of the Site.
Tracking technologies may
record information such as Internet domain and host names; Internet protocol
(IP) addresses; browser software and operating system types; clickstream
patterns; and dates and times that our Site is accessed. Our use of cookies and
other tracking technologies allows us to improve our Site and your web
experience.
Notice
Except as set forth in this
Privacy Policy, we do not currently provide your Personal Information to third
parties, except for third parties who may perform services on the Site or to
you. Nevertheless, we may at a later time choose to make certain offers or
services available to our users from third parties. If we do, during the
registration process and at certain points thereafter in connection with
specific offers, we may ask you whether your Personal Information may be sent to
third parties who have products, services and opportunities which may be useful
to you. If you give your permission to allow third parties to contact you, your
Personal Information (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. Footbo
does not intend to transfer Personal Information without your consent to third
parties who are not bound to act on Footbo’s behalf unless such transfer is
legally required. 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.
Choice
You may choose whether or
not to provide Personal Information to Footbo. The notices we will provide where
Footbo collects Personal Information on the Site should help you to make this
choice. If you choose not to provide the Personal Information we request, you
can still visit most of the Site, but you may be unable to access certain
options, offers, and services that involve our interaction with you.
Access/Accuracy
To the extent that you do provide us with
Personal Information, Footbo wishes to maintain accurate Personal Information.
You may check your profile and add information, delete information or correct
any incorrect information.
Collection of Information
by Third-Party Sites
Our Site may use a
reputable third party to present or serve advertisements that you may see at our
Site. These third party ad servers may use cookies, web beacons, clear gifs or
similar technologies to help present such advertisements, and to help measure
and research the advertisements' effectiveness. The use of these technologies by
these third party ad servers is subject to their own privacy policies and is not
covered by our Privacy Policy.
Links to Other
Sites
Our Site may
contain links to other sites. Other sites may also reference or link to our
Site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such
other sites.
Children's
Privacy
The Site is not structured
to attract children under the age of 13. Accordingly, we do not intend to
collect Personal Information from anyone we know to be under 13 years of age.
In the Event of Merger,
Sale, or Bankruptcy
In the event that Footbo is
acquired by or merged with a third party entity, we reserve the right, in any of
these circumstances, to transfer or assign the information we have collected
from our users as part of such merger, acquisition, sale, or other change of
control. In the unlikely event of our bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
receivership, or assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the application of
laws or equitable principles affecting creditors' rights generally, we may not
be able to control how your Personal Information is treated, transferred, or
used.
Commitment
We are committed to
protecting your privacy. Protecting your privacy online is an evolving area, and
Footbo's Sites are constantly evolving to meet these demands. If you have any
comments or questions regarding our Privacy Policy, please contact us at privacy. While
we cannot guarantee privacy perfection, we will address any issue to the best of
our abilities as soon as possible.
Your
Consent
By using this Site, you
consent to the terms of our Privacy Policy and to Footbo's processing of
Personal Information for the purposes given above. If you do not agree to this
Privacy Policy, please do not use our Site. We reserve the right, at our
discretion, to change, modify, add, or remove portions from this Privacy Policy
at any time. Your continued use of our Site following the posting of changes to
these terms means you accept these changes.
Your California Privacy
Rights
As stated in our Privacy Policy, we do not share Personal Information with third
parties for their direct marketing purposes unless you affirmatively agree to
such disclosure -- typically by opting in to receive information from a third
party. If you do ask us to share your information with a third party for its
marketing purposes, we will only share information in connection with that
specific promotion. To prevent disclosure of your Personal Information for use
in direct marketing by a third party, do not opt in to such use when you provide
Personal Information on the Site. Please note that whenever you opt in to
receive future communications from a third party, your information will be
subject to the third party's privacy policy. If you later decide that you do not
want that third party to use your information, you will need to contact the
third party directly, as we have no control over how third parties use
information. You should always review the privacy policy of any party that
collects your information to determine how that entity will handle your
information.
California customers may request further information about
our compliance with this law by e-mailing californiaprivacy. Please note that we are
only required to respond to one request per customer each year, and we are not
required to respond to requests made by means other than through this e-mail
address.
