Talkstrata collects your personal information in order to provide a friendly, customized community experience. We only collect personal information that is relevant to the purpose of the website and the services offered. The following are the types of information collected from our users:
1. Personal Information
Personal information is collected when users voluntarily register for membership services. Personal information includes e-mail addresses, user registration data, passwords, and any other user data. We may also receive personal usage and demographic information from third-party partners, and we also collect e-mail addresses from users who send us support mail or request technical or other help. This information enables Talkstrata to improve its sites to make your online visits more productive and enjoyable.
Our site's registration form allows users to, among other information, optionally give us a valid e-mail address. We use customer e-mail addresses from the registration form to inform you of new membership benefits and features, and to let you know of urgent problems on our site. As long as site ownership is unchanged, Your email address will NOT be given or sold to any third-parties or used for any solicitation purposes.
2. Aggregate Information
We receive and store certain types of information whenever you interact with us. Talkstrata automatically receives and records certain "traffic data" on our server logs from your browser including your IP address, cookie information, and the page you requested. We use this traffic data to help diagnose problems with its servers, analyze trends and administer the website.
Does Talkstrata Share this Information?
We neither rent nor sell your personal information to anyone. There are only certain cases where your information may be divulged to other authorized parties:
1. Business Transfers
Talkstrata may choose to sell its assets. In these types of transactions, user information is typically one of the business assets that is transferred. The context of this happening is when a third-party company acquires Talkstrata. In cases such as this, we will strive to maintain the level of privacy as written in this policy.
2. Protection of Talkstrata and its users
We may release personal information when we believe in good faith that release is necessary to comply with that law; enforce or apply our conditions of use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of Talkstrata, our employees, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
