With whom we share your information
We
want you to understand when and with whom we may share personal or
other information we have collected about you or your activities on our
web site or while using our services.
Personal information.
We do not share your personal information with others except as
indicated below or when we inform you and give you an opportunity to
opt out of having your personal information shared. We may share
personal information with:
- Authorized service providers:
We may share your personal information, which may include your name and
contact information (including email address) with our authorized
service providers that perform certain services on our behalf. These
services may include fulfilling orders, providing customer service and
marketing assistance, performing business and sales analysis,
supporting our website functionality, and supporting contests,
sweepstakes, surveys and other features offered through our website. We
may also share your name, contact information and credit card
information with our authorized service providers who process credit
card payments. These service providers may have access to personal
information needed to perform their functions but are not permitted to
share or use such information for any other purposes.
- Business partners: When
you make purchases or engage in promotions offered through our website
or our services, we may share personal information with the businesses
with which we partner to offer you those products, services,
promotions, contests and/or sweepstakes. When you elect to engage in a
particular merchant's offer or program, you authorize us to provide
your email address and other information to that merchant. We will
always provide you with the opportunity not to share information with
these businesses.
- Other IAC businesses. We are part of the WebDev Tech LLC. family of businesses (go to www.webdevtech.com
for a listing of these businesses). We may share information we
collect, including personal information such as your name and contact
information, interests, activities and transactions on our site, with

enables us to provide you with information about a variety of products
and services that might interest you.
- Other Situations. We also may disclose your information, including personal information:
- In
response to a subpoena or similar investigative demand, a court order,
or a request for cooperation from a law enforcement or other government
agency; to establish or exercise our legal rights; to defend against
legal claims; or as otherwise required by law. In such cases, we may
raise or waive any legal objection or right available to Bangladesh, US or other counties.
- When
we believe disclosure is appropriate in connection with efforts to
investigate, prevent, or take other action regarding illegal activity,
suspected fraud or other wrongdoing; to protect and defend the rights,
property or safety of our company, our users, our employees, or others;
to comply with applicable law or cooperate with law enforcement; or to
enforce our website terms and conditions or other agreements or
policies.
- In
connection with a substantial corporate transaction, such as the sale
of our business, a divestiture, merger, consolidation, or asset sale,
or in the unlikely event of bankruptcy.
Any
third parties to whom we may disclose personal information may have
their own privacy policies which describe how they use and disclose
personal information. Those policies will govern use, handling and
disclosure of your personal information once we have shared it with
those third parties as described in this Privacy Policy. If you want to
learn more about their privacy practices, we encourage you to visit the
websites of those third parties. These entities or their servers may be
located either inside or outside the United States.
Aggregated and non-personal information.
We may share aggregated and non-personal information we collect under
any of the above circumstances. We may also share it with third parties
and our sister companies to develop and deliver targeted advertising on
our websites and on websites of third parties. We may combine
non-personal information we collect with additional non-personal
information collected from other sources. We also may share aggregated
information with third parties, including advisors, advertisers and
investors, for the purpose of conducting general business analysis. For
example, we may tell our advertisers the number of visitors to our
website and the most popular features or services accessed. This
information does not contain any personal information and may be used
to develop website content and services that we hope you and other
users will find of interest and to target content and advertising.
Third-party websites
There
are a number of places on our website where you may click on a link to
access other websites that do not operate under this Privacy Policy.
For example, if you click on an advertisement on our website, you may
be taken to a website that we do not control. These third-party
websites may independently solicit and collect information, including
personal information, from you and, in some instances, provide us with
information about your activities on those websites. We recommend that
you consult the privacy statements of all third-party websites you
visit by clicking on the “privacy” link typically located at the bottom
of the webpage you are visiting.
Your choices about collection and use of your information
- You
can choose not to provide us with certain information, but that may
result in you being unable to use certain features of our website
because such information may be required in order for you to register
as a member; purchase products or services; participate in a contest,
promotion, survey, or sweepstakes; ask a question; or initiate other
transactions on our website.
You
may tell us not to share your personal information with third parties
or the WebDev Tech LLC family of companies for direct marketing
purposes by checking the appropriate opt-out selection at the time you
register on our site, or by visiting
- the “Account Settings” page associated with your account after you have registered.
Information you provide about yourself while using our service
We
provide areas on our websites where you can post information about
yourself and others and communicate with others or upload content such
as photographs. Such postings are governed by our Terms of Use. In
addition, such postings may appear on other websites or when searches
are executed on the subject of your posting. Also, whenever you
voluntarily disclose personal information on publicly-viewable web
pages, that information will be publicly available and can be collected
and used by others. For example, if you post your email address, you
may receive unsolicited messages. We cannot control who reads your
posting or what other users may do with the information you voluntarily
post, so we encourage you to exercise discretion and caution with
respect to your personal information.
Children's privacy
Although
our website is a general audience site, we restrict the use of our
service to individuals age 18 and above. We do not knowingly collect
personal information from children under the age of 13.
Changes to this Privacy Policy
We
will occasionally update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our
practices and services. When we post changes to this Privacy Policy, we
will revise the “last updated” date at the top of this Privacy Policy.
If we make any material changes in the way we collect, use, and/or
share your personal information, we will notify you by sending an
e-mail to the e-mail address you most recently provided us in your
account, profile or registration (unless we do not have such an email
address), and/or by prominently posting notice of the changes on our
website. We recommend that you check our website from time to time to
inform yourself of any changes in this Privacy Policy or any of our
other policies.
