What personally identifying information about me is collected and who collects it?


Personally identifying information, or personal information, includes your name, birthdate, gender, country, state/prov., city, e-mail address, or any other information that tells another person who you are. This allows for better interaction and participation in the BANNED.COM community. This information helps create your BANNED.COM member identity and allows you to be recognized better for your uploaded contributions to the BANNED.COM community.

This is our policy regarding this information: Except as provided in this statement, BANNED.COM will not disclose, sell or rent any of the registration information you provide without giving you notice and an opportunity to refuse disclosure. We make an effort to include a link to this Privacy Policy wherever we ask you for personal information. We also collect information about your e-mail usage. This allows us to prevent misuse of our e-mail services (i.e. spamming) and monitor email account size limits.

You should be aware that our advertisers or Web sites that have links on our site may collect personally identifiable information about you. This privacy statement does not address the information practices of those Web sites or advertisers.

Please Note: Whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information on message boards, in e-mails, guestbook or in chat areas, that information can be collected and used by others. If you post personal information in public places, others may send you unsolicited e-mail messages. Always be cautious about the information you provide online.

What are cookies and how does BANNED.COM use them?


In our effort to provide you services customized to your interests, we use cookies to keep and sometimes track information about you. A cookie is a small piece of data that is sent to your browser from a Web server and stored on your computer's hard drive. We use cookies to: access your account information (stored on our computers) in order to deliver better and more personalized services; estimate our audience size for our advertisers; and identify which areas of our site you have visited.

You should also be aware that companies that advertise on our site may use their own cookies. This privacy policy does not cover how these companies use their cookies.


How is my personal information used?


Our primary goal in gathering your personal information is to allow a more enriched and informative community environment to participate in. When you view, search and upload content, more information about who, what, where, when and why is better than less. Currently we do not customize the content you see based on any information you have provided, but we eventually intend to do so. Essentially, we will compare your profile with other member profiles and, based on their interests, we will make predictions about your interests. Based on these predictions, you may see specialized content, including advertising banners. Advertisers will never have direct access to any of your personal identification information.

In addition, we will send you e-mail notices about products, companies, and events that we think might interest you. If you do not want to receive these messages, simply tell us that when you give us your personal information.

We may also match information obtained from cookies with data provided by you. This allows us to analyze this data both in the aggregate (for example, one-tenth of our users ride banned boards) and in connection with individual users. This information lets us tailor our services to your interests. We also provide the analysis of our users (as a group) to prospective partners, advertisers, and other third parties. We do this so that our advertisers and us understand your needs and interests better, which allows us keep bringing you cool stuff free of charge.

Finally, we may disclose user information when we are required to by law, or when we have reason to believe that someone is causing injury to or interference with our rights or property, other BANNED.COM users, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities.


How does BANNED.COM protect my information?


We make every effort to ensure that your information is secure on our system. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk.
