By using our website and services you acknowledge to have read and accepted this Privacy Policy.
PRIVACY POLICY
At MobileLocate, we are committed to protecting your privacy and to developing technology that gives you the most powerful and secure online experience. You can travel through most of our site without giving us any information about yourself. But sometimes we do need information to provide services that you request, and this statement of privacy explains data collection and use in those situations.
WHO WE ARE
This document sets out the privacy policy of MobileLocate. This policy explains how MobileLocate and its affiliated companies ("we", "us", "our") use your personal information (meaning any information about you which is personally identifiable like your name, address, telephone number or email address and is generally referred to throughout this policy as "your information"). It applies to personal information collected from you.
HOW WE COLLECT AND USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
GENERAL
We collect your information firstly, when you give it to us (for example, when you register for our services using our registration services). In general, we use the information you provide to us in order to enable you to use our applications and services, to process requests, to enter you for promotions which you have indicated you wish to enter, to identify your personal preferences and to match your needs with relevant services or products. The information you provide to us via online registration is used to provide you with access via your user name and password to our website, to sign up and to receive newsletters.
INFORMATION SHARING AND DISCLOSURE
In addition and with your consent we (and if applicable, our partners or other trusted third parties) use your information for certain marketing, market research, analysis and related purposes. It is up to you how much or how little information you allow us to use for these purposes. Our on screen notices will generally ask for your explicit permission to contact you for such additional purposes. These are: · to communicate with you from time to time by email and (where you provide us with those details either via the website or elsewhere) by mobile (using SMS or, if your mobile device permits, EMS or MMS messages or similar technologies) and occasionally by post, with information, offers and other material which may interest you; · to make your information available from time to time to trusted partners and third parties, for the same purposes as above; · to conduct market research, for example to ask you to participate in a survey about topical issues, conducted by us or trusted partners or third parties. We will always try to tell you before you participate in the survey how any information you provide in the survey will be used; · to enable us and third parties acting on our behalf to analyze your information, in a non identifying form, (generally in the form of statistics), so that we can identify trends about usage of our website(s) or services and improve them. Additionally we reserve the right to access and disclose your personal information in order to comply with applicable laws, to comply with lawful requests from governments, law enforcement agencies or parties whose request we reasonably consider to be justified in connection with any allegations by any party about your abuse of our services, to operate our systems properly or to protect ourselves or our users.
