MeetAnOstoMate.org Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 17, 2024

We are committed to protecting your personal information and informing you about how we handle it. This privacy policy applies to transactions and activities on the MeetAnOstoMate.org website and double-blind email communications between MeetAnOstoMate.org members (collectively, the "Site"). This policy does not apply to any other website or offline point of contact between MeetAnOstoMate or any other company and consumers. Please review this privacy policy periodically, as we may modify it from time to time. Each time you visit the Site or provide us with information, you accept the practices described in this privacy policy at that time.

Your IP Address

Like most websites, each time you visit the Site, we automatically collect your IP address and the web page from which you came. We use your IP address to help identify you, gather broad demographic information about you, and administer and optimize the Site for you.

Cookies

The Site uses cookies to track your activity and enhance your experience. We use cookies to deliver content specific to your interests, save your password, and save other personal information if you choose. Third-party advertisers on the Site may also place or read cookies on your browser.

Information We Collect From You

We may collect "personal information" (e.g., full name or email address) and "demographic information" (e.g., gender, age, browsing history). Demographic information is divided into two categories: 1) "non-public information" (e.g., purchase history, one-on-one communications) and 2) "public information" (e.g., user-generated content). We ask you not to enter personal information in your profile to avoid it being posted publicly. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 18.

Information Other Websites Collect From You

The Site may contain links to other websites. We do not control these websites or their business practices. This privacy policy does not apply to these other websites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies.

How We Use Personal Information

We use your email address and other personal information to operate the Site, contact you regarding transactions and activities on the Site, and forward messages from other MeetAnOstoMate.org users. These communications, known as "Operational Communications," may contain commercial messages.

We also use personal information to send newsletters, offers, and promotional materials. The Site provides options to decline certain communications.

Special Cases in which We Share Personal Information

We may transfer personal information in the event of ownership changes or bankruptcy. We may also disclose personal information to comply with the law, cooperate with law enforcement, or protect the interests or safety of MeetAnOstoMate.org or its visitors.

How We Use Public Information and Other Demographic Information

We may review and use demographic information to tailor the Site and communications to your interests. We may share demographic information with advertisers on an anonymous basis. However, when you respond to an advertisement, the advertiser may identify you as a member of a specific demographic group.

Our Security Precautions

The Site has security measures to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of information under our control. Your information may be transferred and maintained on networks outside your jurisdiction, which may not have privacy laws as protective as those in your country.

Changing Our Privacy Policy for Previously Gathered Information

If we decide to use personal information differently from the stated purpose at the time of collection, we will notify users via email or by providing 30 days' notice on the Site. We reserve the right to change our privacy policy and practices without notice, applying changes only to information gathered after the change date.
