How we protect and handle your personal information
At SpreadTrends we believe that privacy is critical to your ongoing patronage of our service, the success of the SpreadTrends community, and to the overall vibrancy of the Internet. Personal information is data about you that is personally identifiable, like your name, address, email address, or phone number, and that is not otherwise publicly available.
These principles do not apply to the practices of companies that SpreadTrends does not own or control, or to people that SpreadTrends does not directly employ or manage. SpreadTrends reviews this policy on an annual basis and may update or amend it at any time.
SpreadTrends takes your personal information, and your privacy, seriously. We will keep all of the personal information that you provided during the registration process private and confidential, except as explicitly stated in this policy.
SpreadTrends stores your email address. We do not store your account password or your password reminder question in plaintext. We do not store any credit card or payment information.
SpreadTrends uses your personal information for "group" demographic statistics and communications. We do not share data with third party marketers.
We may use named third party service providers to process and store Subscriber data. We will not disclose your individual personal information unless acting under a good faith belief to: conform to legal requirements, protect SpreadTrends rights or property, or enforce the Terms of Service.
SpreadTrends may collect Internet Protocol ("IP") address data when you visit web pages on our website. An IP address is a number associated with the service through which you access the Internet, like your ISP, company, or university.
Standing alone, your IP address is not personally identifiable. We use IP addresses for system administration and to report aggregate information to our advertisers and service providers.
SpreadTrends may use "cookies" to store and occasionally track information on our website, enabling us to provide you with customizable and personalized service. For example, we may remember your location and data filtering preferences.
