What personally identifiable information is collected from you
The Godavari Classifieds
Marketplace collects information in several ways from different
parts of our web site.
Some personal information is
gathered when you register for certain features of our site, such as
the classifieds section, the free home page creator, and possibly
other sections. During registration, we ask for your name and email
address. The system may also ask for your street address, city,
state/province, zip/postal code, country, telephone number, and the
URL of your web site, although only fields that are marked with an
asterisk (*) on the registration field are required. This
information is used solely to assist you in navigating the system by
automatically filling in certain forms with your information so that
you don't have to continually re-enter it. Once you register you are
no longer anonymous to The Godavari Classifieds Marketplace - you
have a username and are able to take full advantage of the many
offerings of The Godavari Classifieds Marketplace.
In addition to registration we may
ask you for personal information at other times, including (but not
limited to) when you place ads or take advantage of the other
features of the site. If you contact us, we may keep a record of
that correspondence.
What cookies are and how they are used
As part of offering and providing customizable and personalized
services, The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace may use cookies to store and
sometimes track information about you. A cookie is a small amount of
data that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on
your computer's hard drive. Several features of this web site
require that you accept cookies in order to work properly. (See
"What choices are available to you regarding
collection, use, and distribution of your information"
for more information on cookies.)
Generally, we use cookies for the following purposes:
(1) To identify and label all "new" ads in the classifieds section
since your last visit to the site.
(2) Optionally to permanently save your password for the classifieds
section on your computer so you don't have to re-enter it each time
you visit our site.
(3) To enable you to "checklist" ads in the classifieds section that
you want to mark for future retrieval and viewing.
Advertising networks that serve ads onto this web site may also use
their own cookies.
We may also collect IP addresses for system administration and to
report aggregate information to our advertisers.
How your information is used
The primary goal of The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace in collecting personal
information is to provide you, the user, with a customized
experience and to assist your navigation throughout this web site.
Who is collecting your information
When you are asked for personal information on this web site, you
are sharing that information with The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace alone, unless it is
specifically stated otherwise. However, some activities will, by
their very nature, result in your personal information being
revealed to other users. For example, when you enter personal
information on the ad posting form in the classifieds section, this
information will generally be included in your ad, unless
specifically stated otherwise.
With whom your information may be shared
As a general rule, The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace will not disclose any of
your personally identifiable information except when we have your
permission or under special circumstances, such as when we believe
in good faith that the law requires it or under the circumstances
described below. Please see the Terms of Service or Use Agreements
for each of our products and services for more detailed information
about how your personal information may be shared.
The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace may disclose account
information in special cases when we have reason to believe that
disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or
bring legal action against someone who may be violating the Terms of
Service of The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace or may be causing injury to
or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) the
rights or property of The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace, other users of The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace, or anyone else that could
be harmed by such activities. The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace may disclose or access
account information when we believe in good faith that the law
requires it and for administrative and other purposes that we deem
necessary to maintain, service, and improve our products and
services.
What choices are available to you regarding collection, use, and
distribution of your information
If you choose not to register or provide personal information, you
can still use most of the features of our site, but you will not be
able to access areas or use features that require registration.
You also have choices with respect to cookies. By modifying your
browser preferences, you have the choice to accept all cookies, to
be notified when a cookie is set, or to reject all cookies. If you
choose to reject all cookies you will be unable to use those
services of our site that require registration in order to
participate. These services include the identification of new ads in
the classifieds section that have been posted since your last visit,
auto-fillin of the logon form for the classifieds, and the Checklist
feature of the classifieds. You can still use most of the features
of our site even if you do not accept cookies.
The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace does not sell or rent user
information to anyone. We will notify you at the time of data
collection or transfer if your data will be shared with a third
party and you will always have the option of not permitting the
transfer. If you do not wish to allow your data to be shared, you
can choose not to use a particular service.
How you can access, update or delete your information
We will provide you with the means to ensure that your personal
information is correct and current. You may edit or delete your user
profile for the classifieds section at any time by clicking on the
"My Profile" link or graphic provided by the system once you are
logged in. Once you have logged onto the system during a given
session, wherever you go on that particular classifieds program
demo, your information will stay with you until or unless you click
on the "Logoff" link, which is accessible from within the "My
Profile" screen.
If you are a previously registered user of the classifieds and you
have lost or forgotten your password, you may obtain it by email by
using our "Forgot Password" feature. Click the button on any login
page to request that your password be emailed to you. We cannot
provide your password by any other means.
Your account can be deleted, but doing so will result in not being
able to access any of the features of the program that require user
registration.
The kind of security precautions that are in place to protect the
loss, misuse, or alteration of your information
Other than the administrator of this web site or other authorized
personnel of The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace, you are the only person who
has access to your personal information. Your user registration is
password-protected to prevent unauthorized access.
We recommend that you do not divulge your password to anyone. The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace will never ask you for your
password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited email. As
an extra security precaution, you may want to logoff once you have
completed a session in the classifieds section. This is to ensure
that others cannot access your personal information and
correspondence if you share a computer with someone else or are
using a computer in a public place like a library or Internet cafe.
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be
guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to
protect your personal information, The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace cannot ensure or warrant the
security of any information you transmit to us or from our online
services, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your
transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our
systems.
How The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace
protects children's privacy
The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace is a general audience web
site. Children should always ask a parent for permission before
sending personal information to anyone online. The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace does not share personal
information about users under the age of 13 with third parties and
we do not sell or rent personal information about any of our users,
regardless of age. In addition, The
Godavari Classifieds Marketplace will not send any direct
email offers to users who indicate they are under the age of 13.
As a result of the new Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA)
in the United States, we are required to prohibit children under 13
who reside in the U.S. from posting messages, posting ads, creating
personal home pages, or using any of the other features of our site
that require them to submit information via forms. This is due to
the onerous reporting and verification requirements that this new
law places on web sites that allow children under 13 to submit
information via forms. Since we do not have the large, dedicated
staff that would be necessary to comply with these requirements, our
only option in order to remain in compliance with the law is to
prohibit all children under 13 who reside in the U.S. from posting
any information via forms on our web site. Therefore, children under
13 should not submit any information via forms on our web site, and
if you submit such information, you warrant that you are over the
age of 13 and not subject to COPPA.
What else you should know about your online privacy
Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal
information online - for example in ads that you post or through
email - that information can be collected and used by others. In
short, if you post personal information online that is accessible to
the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties
in return.
Ultimately, you are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy
of your passwords and/or any account information. Please be careful
and responsible whenever you're online.
