1. A Special Note About Children
Children under eighteen years of age are not eligible to use our
services. We ask that children not submit information to us.
2. Information We Collect
In our online ANONYMOUS registration form, we ask you to provide us
with certain information such as your age and the type of relationship you are looking for. In
addition, we collect address, credit card, and bank information only from those who wish to
acquire premium member privileges. However, NONE of the personally identifiable information can
be accessed or used by the public to identify a specific individual.
In the course of using our site, we automatically track certain
information such as your IP addresses and email addresses. Many sites automatically collect this
information. If you choose to post messages in our website, we will only display such
information about you as you choose to reveal.
If you send us personal correspondence, such as emails or letters,
or if other users or third parties send us correspondence about your activities or postings on
the site, we may collect such information into a file which is only accessed by authorized
personnel. We may also collect other users' comments about you in our complaints department.
If you choose to use our referral service to tell a friend about our
site, we will ask you for your friend's name and email address. We will automatically send your
friend a one-time email inviting him or her to visit the site. We store this information for the
sole purpose of sending this one-time email and tracking the success of our referral program.
3. Our Use of Your Information
We internally use personally identifiable information of our users
to improve our marketing efforts, to statistically analyze site usage, to improve our content
and product offerings as well as to customize our site's content and layout. We believe these
uses allow us to improve our site and better tailor your online experience to meet your needs.
We may also use personally identifiable information about you to
deliver information to you that, in some cases, are targeted to your interests, such as targeted
banners and promotions.
We also send periodic informational updates to our members via
email.
4. Our Disclosure of Your Information
We DO NOT sell or rent any personally identifiable information about
you to any third party without your permission. We do disclose information in aggregate to
advertisers and for other marketing and promotional purposes. However, in these situations, we
DO NOT disclose to these entities any information that could be used to personally identify you.
Certain information, such as your password, credit card number, and bank account number, are not
disclosed in aggregate at all.
In order to maintain a healthy community, we cooperate with all law
enforcement inquiries and with all third parties to enforce their intellectual property or other
rights.
We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable
information as required by law and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our
rights and/or to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process served on our
Web site. We use a credit card processing company to bill you for goods and services. These
companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any other
purposes.
5. Your use of Other Users' Information
You may not use other user's information for commercial purposes, to
spam, to harass, or to make unlawful threats. We reserve the right to terminate those who misuse
other user's information or who otherwise violate the
Terms of Service.
6. Control of Your Password
You may not disclose your password to any third parties or share it
with any third parties. If, despite the foregoing, 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.
7. Reviewing and Changing Your Personally Identifiable Information
Once you register, you will be able to review and change much of
your personally identifiable information including:
- Your email address
- Your city, state, zip code, country
- Your password
- Your profile
Please promptly update your information if it changes by logging in
to your account and following the screen prompts. We strongly urge you to periodically change
your password to help reduce the risk of unauthorized access to your account information.
Upon your request, we will remove your credit card number and credit
card expiration date from our main databases. To make this request, email us at
contact@dating-star.com. We will retain in our files information, including credit card
information, you have requested to remove in some circumstances, such as to resolve disputes,
troubleshoot problems, comply with Credit Card Merchant Banking and Association Agreements,
enhance security, reduce fraud, comply with Federal and State Law, and to enforce our
Terms of Service Agreement.
8. Third Party Collections of Information
Our policy only addresses the use and disclosure of information we
collect from you. To the extent that you disclose your information to other parties on our
system or other sites throughout the Internet, different rules may apply to their use or
disclosure of the personal information you disclose to them. While we are working closely with
our partners to ensure the highest privacy to you, we encourage you to ask questions before you
disclose your personal information to others. 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.
9. Security
We have security measures in place to protect and prevent the loss,
misuse, and alteration of the information under our control. We use industry standard efforts to
safeguard the confidentiality of your personal identifiable information such as firewalls. While
'perfect security' does not exist on the Internet, our technical experts work hard to ensure
your secure use of our services.
