If you do not wish to reveal your PI to us, you may still be able to use our Software, but we cannot guarantee that you will be able to use it at its fullest.

Information Sharing And Disclosure

We and or our affiliates, clients, contractors, licensors, officers, agents and/or representatives need to protect our interests, upon the case where you are found to be in breach of our Agreement and/or this Policy and in other circumstances. If that becomes the case, we must reserve our right to disclose your PI and, henceforth, we shall have the right to disclose the collected PI and/or data.

To process, manage and oversee legal claims and processes brought against us by third parties (e.g. takedown notices).

Information Safeguard Measures

We use industry standard protocols and technology to protect the confidentiality of your registered user information and PI, such as Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and secure databases. Your PI is only accessible by a limited number of employees who have special access rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, please take into account that no security measures are completely guaranteed to avoid unauthorized access, and that the Internet and related transmissions are not secure or error free communication means.

Overall, we implement and maintain reasonable security measures to protect our databases and records from unauthorized access, acquisition, destruction, use, modification or disclosure.

Additionally, if you post information on a public forum, message board, blog or bulletin board, any PI you elect to disclose therein there may or will be read, collected and/or used by other users of such forums and could be used by third parties to send you unsolicited messages.

Sensitive Information

From time to time, our Software or our Services will request you to disclose them sensitive PI (e.g. credit card number, account username and password, racial or ethnic origin, religion, health, sexual orientation, criminal background) in order to complete operations related to our Services. We strongly advise our users to engage in online safety measures in order to protect their financial information.

Newsletters

Occasionally, we will ask you for express permission and approval to receive electronic messages in electronic format which are then sent to an electronic address and that contains a message asking recipients to partake in certain business activities (e.g. newsletters, purchase of products, services, surveys).

Cookies

Periodically, we may place what are known as ‘cookies’ inside your computer for the purpose of tracking and collecting data in regard to your utilization of our Site and Services. These files are small texts that our site transfers to your computer, and which allow us to recognize you and obtain data such as the time in which you browse pages within our Site, time of the day, specs of your computer, session length, etc. We also use what are known as ‘beacons’; these are miniscule files, at times just a pixel in size, and then embedded within our Site and its pages. You can always instruct your browser to refuse cookies and beacons, but in doing that, you may then become unable to use our full service offer.

Third Party Services

Our Site may present our commercial partner’s hyperlinks as well as those of other third parties. It is important that you consider that we are not responsible for data practices that are conducted by third-parties or the privacy thereof, and that the way in which such third-parties may assemble, process, handle or utilize your PI is not in our control. When such a link is used to go from our Site to an outside website, our Policy and Terms are redundant and your further browsing is at your personal and ultimate risk.

International disclosure

If you are accessing our Site, you must know that you are may be conveying your PI to Israel and, thus, you hereby permit to such transfer, if any. Please be advised that its authorities may have personal data and privacy laws that differ from those of yours, with different levels of security and rights enforcement.
