iHostOn
is committed to safeguarding your privacy online. Please
read the following policy to understand how your personal
information will be treated as you make full use of our
many offerings. The policy may change from time to time
so please check periodically.
1.
Personal Information
During
registration, iHostOn asks for your name and email address.
Once you register you are no longer anonymous to iHostOn
and you are able to take full advantage of iHostOn’s
offerings. Wherever iHostOn collects personal information,
we make an effort to include a link to this Privacy Policy
on that page.
2.
Use of Personal Information
iHostOn’s
primary goal in collecting personal information is to
provide you, the user, with a customized experience on
our network of sites. This includes personalization services,
interactive communications and many other types of services,
most of which are completely free to you. In order to
provide services free of charge, we display advertisements.
By knowing a little about you, iHostOn is able to deliver
more relevant advertisements and content, and hence better
service, to you.
3.
Collection of information by iHostOn
When
you are on a iHostOn site and are asked for personal information,
you are sharing that information with iHostOn alone, unless
it is specifically stated otherwise. If data is being
collected and/or maintained by any company other than
iHostOn, you will be notified prior to the time of the
data collection or transfer.
Promotions
that run on iHostOn may be sponsored by companies other
than iHostOn or may be co-sponsored by iHostOn and another
company. Some or all data collected during a promotion
may be shared with the sponsor. If data will be shared,
you will be notified prior to the time of data collection
or transfer. You can decide not to participate in the
promotion if you don’t want your data to be shared.
Please
be aware that iHostOn advertisers or websites that have
links on our site may collect personally identifiable
information about you. This privacy statement does not
cover the information practices of those web sites linked
to iHostOn.
4.
Sharing of Information
As
a general rule, iHostOn will not disclose or share any
of your personally identifiable information except when
iHostOn has your permission or under special circumstances,
such as when iHostOn believes in good faith that the law
requires it or as permitted in terms of this policy.
From
time to time, you may be offered the opportunity to receive
materials or special offers from third parties. If you
opt in to receive information from these third parties,
iHostOn will, with your permission, share your name and
email address with them.
iHostOn
may also disclose account information in special cases
when iHostOn has reasons to believe that disclosing this
information is necessary to identify, contact or bring
legal action against someone who may be violating iHostOn
Terms of Services or may be causing injury to or interference
with (either intentionally or unintentionally) iHostOn’s
rights or property, other iHostOn users, or if iHostOn
deems it necessary to maintain, service, and improve its
products and services.
5.
Distribution of Information
iHostOn
may, from time to time, send you email regarding our products
and services. In addition, if you indicate upon registration
that you are interested in receiving offers or information
from iHostOn and its partners, iHostOn may occasionally
send you direct mail about products and services that
it feels may be of interest to you. Only iHostOn or agents
working on behalf of iHostOn and under confidentiality
agreements, will send you these direct mailings and only
if you indicate that you do not object to these offers.
If you do not want to receive such mailing, simply tell
iHostOn when you give your personal information or, at
any time you can easily edit your iHostOn Account information
to no longer receive such offers and mailings.
6.
Updation of personal information
You
may edit your iHostOn Account Information and your iHostOn
profile by sending a request to iHostOn@iHostOn.com.
Your
iHostOn account can be deleted or deactivated, but doing
so will result in not being able to access any members-only
area of the iHostOn network, including your iHostOn Mail
account (if you have one). Residual information will remain
within our archive records.
7.
Protection of information
As
with all information, iHostOn will never rent or sell
your personal, financial or other information, including
information kept in your iHostOn Portfolio. Any user statistics
that we may provide to prospective advertisers or partners
regarding financial, product or service usage on iHostOn
are provided in the aggregate form only and does not include
any personally identifiable information about any individual
user.
Please
remember to sign out of your iHostOn account and close
your browser window when you have finished your work.
This to ensure that others cannot access your personal
information and correspondence if you share a computer
with someone else or are using a computer in a public
place. Whenever iHostOn handles personal information as
described above regardless of where this occurs, iHostOn
takes steps to ensure that your information is treated
securely and in accordance with the relevant Terms of
Services and this Privacy Policy.
Unfortunately,
no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed
to be 100% secure. As a result, while iHostOn strives
to protect your personal information, iHostOn cannot ensure
or warrant the security of any information you transmit
to iHostOn and you do so at your own risk. Once iHostOn
receives your transmission, it makes best efforts to ensure
its security on its systems. Please keep in mind that
whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information
online-for example on message boards or through email
-that information can be collected and used by others.
In short, if you post personal information online that
is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited
messages from other parties in return.
