However, when you send an introductory note through our instant messaging system to another Member, your email address and Profile No. is included in that note so that the recipient can respond to you. Further, your viewable profile will also include your Screen Name you chose upon registering (posting your ad with us).

Under some circumstances we may require some additional information, such as, but not limited to credit card details. We use this financial information, including your name, and other information, as well as to bill you for use of our services.

We automatically track certain information based upon your behaviour on our site using cookies and other devices. We use this information to internal research on our Members' demographics, interests, and behaviour to better understand and serve you and our community. This information may include, but not limited to, the URL that you just came from (whether this URL is on our site or not). Which URL you next go to (whether this URL is on our site or not), what browser you are using, and your IP address.

d) Our Disclosure of Your Information

Due to the existing regulatory environment, we cannot ensure that all of your private communications and other personally identifiable information will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise described in this Privacy Policy. By way of example (without limiting and foregoing), we may be forced to disclose information to the government, law enforcement agencies or third parties under certain circumstances, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, or Members may abuse or misuse your information that they collect from our Site. Therefore, although we use industry standard practices to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personally identifiable information or private communications will always remain private.

As a matter of policy, we do not sell or rent any personally identifiable information about you to any third party. However, the following describes some of the ways that your personally identifiable information may be disclosed.

Advertisers. We aggregate (gather up data across all our Members accounts) personally identifiable information and disclose such information in a non-personally identifiable manner to advertisers and other third parties for other marketing and promotional purposes. However, in these situations, we do not disclose to these entities any information that could be used to identify you personally. Certain information, such as your name, email address, password, credit card number and bank account number, are never disclosed to marketing advertisers. We may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads on our behalf. These companies may employ cookies and action tags (also known as single pixel gifs or web beacons) to measure advertising effectiveness. Any information that these third parties collect via cookies and action tags is completely anonymous.

External Service Providers. There are a number of services offered by external service providers that help you use our Site (e.g. co-branded sites, listing agents, escrow, authentication, mediation). If you choose to use these optional services, and in the course of doing so, disclose information to the external service providers, and/or grant them permission to collect information about you, then their use of your information is governed by their private policy.

Other Corporate Entities. We share much of our data, including personally identifiable information about you, with our parent, affiliates, subsidiaries and joint ventures that are committed to serving your online needs and related services, throughout the world. To the extent that these entities have access to your information, they will treat it at least as protectively as they treat information they obtain from their other Members. Our parent, affiliates, subsidiaries and joint ventures will follow privacy practices no less protective of all Members than our practices described in this document, to the extent allowed by applicable law. It is possible that Top-Ads.Com, it's subsidiaries, joint ventures, or any combination of such, could merge with or be acquired by another business entity. Should such a combination occur, you should expect that Top-Ads.Com would share some or all of your information in order to continue to provide the service. You will receive notice of such event (to the extent it occurs) and we will require that the new combined entity follow the practices disclosed in this Privacy Policy.

Legal Requests. Top-Ads.Com cooperates with law enforcement inquiries, as well as other third parties to enforce laws, such as: intellectual property rights, fraud and other rights. We can (and you authorize us to) disclose any information about you to law enforcement and other government officials as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate, in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringements, or other activity that is illegal or may expose us or you to legal liability.

 

e) Your Use of other Members Information.

In order to facilitate interaction among all our Members, when you send an introductory note through our system to another Member, your email address is included in that note so that the recipient can respond to you. As a Member you have access to the Members ID No. By accepting this Privacy Policy, you agree that, with respect to other Members' personally identifiable information that you obtain through the email communication and the chat room, Top-Ads.Com hereby grants to you a license to use such information only for: (a) Top-Ads.Com related communications that are not unsolicited commercial messages, and (b) any other purpose that such Member expressly agrees to after adequate disclosure of the purpose(s). In all cases, you must give Members an opportunity to remove themselves from your database and a chance to review what information you have collected about them. In addition, under no circumstances, except as defined in this Section, can you disclose personally identifiable information about another Member to any third party without our consent and the consent of such other Member after adequate disclosure. Top-Ads.Com and our Members do not tolerate spam. Therefore, without limiting the foregoing, you are not licensed to add a Top-Ads.Com Member, to your mail list (email or physical mail) without their express written consent after adequate disclosure. To report spam from other Top-Ads.Com Members, please contact us.

 

f) Accessing, Reviewing and Changing Your Profile.

Following registration, you cannot review or change the information you submitted during registration. However, you can change your password in order to ensure the safety or your Account at Top-Ads.Com. If you change your password we keep track of your old password. You can also upload your picture if you haven't provided any at the time of registration. You can also change your picture within 24 hours of your first upload from Dashboard link.

You can De-activate and Re-activate your profile and/or your picture at anytime you like to disallow access (viewing) to your profile or your picture by the public while you can still find matches using Quick Search, Advanced Search, view your Mutual Matches, and contact other Members from Dashboard before the expiry of your registration.

We will retain our files information you have requested to remove in order in some circumstances, such as to resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems and enforce our terms and conditions. Further, such prior information is never completely removed from our databases due to technical and legal constraints, including stored ‘back up' systems. Therefore, you should not expect that all of your personally identifiable information will be completely removed from our databases in response to your requests.

 

g) Control of Your Password

You are responsible for all actions taken with your User ID and password, including fees. Therefore we do not recommend that you disclose your Top-Ads.Com User ID or password to any third parties. If you choose to share your User ID and password or your information with third parties to provide you additional services, you are responsible for all actions taken with your User ID and password and therefore should review that third party's privacy policy. If you lose control of your password, you may lose substantial control over your personally identifiable information and may be subject to legally binding actions taken on your behalf. Therefore, if your password has been compromised for any reason, you should immediately change your password.

 

h) Other Information Collectors

Except as otherwise expressly included in this Privacy Policy, this document only addresses the use and disclosure of information we collect from you. To the extent that you disclose your information to other parties, whether they are on our Site or on other sites throughout the Internet, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the information you disclose to them. To the extent that we use third party advertisers, they adhere to their own privacy policies. Since Top-Ads.Com does not control the privacy policies of the third parties, you are subject to ask questions before you disclose your personal information to others.

 

i) Security

Top-Ads.Com uses industry standard practices to safeguard the confidentiality of your personal identifiable information. Top-Ads.Com treats data as an asset that must be protected against loss and unauthorized access. We employ many different security techniques to protect such data from unauthorized access by Members inside and outside the company. However, "perfect security" does not exist on the Internet.

 

j) Notice

All changes to this policy are effective after we provide you with at least (30) days' notice of changes by sending email to Members. We provide you with (30) days' notice to allow you the opportunity to notify Top-Ads.Com if you do not agree to such changes. We, however, still have the right to change this Pivacy Policy with immediate effect without a (30) days' notice.

Beware of Scammers

Though most of our Members are legitimate, there may be a very small percentage who may just look for your money. These Members have many ploys to ask for money from you. Your heart goes out to them, and you want to help. Please don't do it! It's okay to send gifts, but don't send money. The first thing that you'll notice is that they will express love for you very quickly. Things will be moving too quickly for the amount of contact you have had.

 

Report Scammers

If you have been asked for money, please report this person to us and include the letter. We want to remove these people from our service, and we need your help do identify them. Most of the persons are wonderful, but beware of the scammers.

 

Disclosure Statement

Your confidential information and anonymity will be fiercely protected. Please be honest in your answers – sincerity and a sense of humour seem to count a lot. Offensive or insincere answers may be removed at the discretion of the systems manager.
