Scope
This Privacy Policy describes how we handle your personal information for our
services on the Only PE websites. By accepting the Privacy Policy and the User
Agreement in registration, you expressly consent to our collection, storage, use
and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy is effective upon acceptance for new users and is otherwise
effective on April 1, 2008.
Collection
You can browse the Site without telling us who you are or revealing any
personal information about yourself. Once you give us your personal information,
you are not anonymous to us. If you choose to provide us with personal
information, you consent to the transfer and storage of that information to our
servers located in the United States. We may collect and store the following
personal information: email address, physical contact information, and depending
on the service used sometimes financial information, such as credit card or bank
account numbers; shipping, billing and other information you provide to purchase
or ship an item; correspondence through the Site, and correspondence sent to us;
computer sign on data, statistics on page views, traffic to and from the Site;
other information, including IP address and standard web log information.
Marketing
We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their
marketing purposes. Our primary purpose in collecting personal information is to
provide you with a safe, smooth, efficient, and customized experience. You agree
that we may use your personal information to
provide the services and customer support you request
collect fees, and troubleshoot problems
prevent potentially prohibited or illegal activities,
customize, measure, and improve our services and the Site content and layout
Our Disclosure of Your Information
We may disclose personal information to respond to legal requirements,
enforce our policies, or protect individual rights, property, or safety. We may
also share your personal information with
service providers under contract who help with our business operations; such
as fraud investigations, bill collection, and affiliate and rewards programs
law enforcement or other governmental officials, in response to a verified
request relating to a criminal investigation or alleged illegal activity; In
such events we will disclose name, city, state, telephone number, email address,
User ID history, fraud complaints, and bidding and listing history. Without
limiting the above, in an effort to respect your privacy, we will not otherwise
disclose your personal information to law enforcement, other government
officials, or other third parties without a subpoena, court order or
substantially similar legal procedure, except when we believe in good faith that
the disclosure of information is necessary to prevent imminent physical harm or
financial loss or to report suspected illegal activity.
Cookies
We use cookies on certain pages of the Site to help analyze our web page
flow, customize our services, measure promotional effectiveness, and promote
trust and safety. A few important things you should know about cookies are that:
We offer certain features that are only available through the use of cookies.
We use cookies to help identify you and maintain your signed in status.
Most cookies are session cookies, meaning that they are automatically deleted
from your hard drive at the end of a session.
You are always free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, although
doing so may interfere with your use of the Sites.
Account Protection
Your password is the key to your account. Use unique numbers, letters, and
special characters and do not disclose your Only PE password to anyone. If you
do share your password or your personal information with others, remember that
you are responsible for all actions taken in the name of your account. If you
lose control of your password, you may lose substantial control over your
personal 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 notify the Only PE and change your password.
Accessing, Reviewing and Changing Your Personal Information
You can see, review and change most of your personal information by logging
into the Site. Generally, we will not manually modify your personal information
because it is very difficult to verify your identity remotely. You must promptly
update your personal information if it changes or is inaccurate. Once you make a
public posting, you may not be able to change or remove it. Upon your request,
we will close your account and remove your personal information from view as
soon as reasonably possible, based on your account activity and in accordance
with applicable law. We do retain personal information from closed accounts in
order to comply with law, prevent fraud, collect any fees owed, resolve
disputes, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigations, and take other
actions otherwise permitted by law.
Security
Your information is stored on our service providers servers located in the
United States. Our service provider treats data as an asset that must be
protected and they use many tools to protect your personal information against
unauthorized access and disclosure. However, as you probably know, third parties
may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, and
other users may abuse or misuse your personal information that they collect from
the Site. Therefore, although we work very hard to protect your privacy, we do
not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or
private communications will always remain private.
Third Parties
Except as otherwise expressly included in this Privacy Policy, this document
addresses only the use and disclosure of information we collect from you. If you
disclose your information to others, different rules may apply to their use or
disclosure of the information you disclose to them. Since the Only PE does not
control the privacy policies of third parties, you are subject to the privacy
policies of those third parties. We encourage you to ask questions before you
disclose your personal information to others. |
