What
personally identifiable information is collected
from you
The
classifieds collects information in several ways
from different parts of our web site.
Some
personal information is gathered when you register.
During registration, we ask for your name and email
address. The system will 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 (such as the ad posting
form) with your information so that you don't have
to continually re-enter it. Once you register you
are no longer anonymous to LDS Matching.com - you
have a username and are able to take full advantage
of the many offerings of the
classifieds.
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 classifieds.
If you contact us, we may keep a record of that
correspondence. Every page within the classifieds
includes a link to this Privacy Policy.

What
cookies are and how they are used
As part
of offering and providing customizable and
personalized services, the classifieds 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 the classifieds 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 since your last
visit to the site.
(2)
Optionally to permanently save your password 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 that you want to mark
for future retrieval and viewing.
Advertising
networks that serve ads onto the classifieds may
also use their own cookies.
The
classifieds 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 classifieds in collecting
personal information is to provide you, the user,

navigation throughout the classifieds.

Who
is collecting your information
When you
are asked for personal information on the
classifieds, you are sharing that information with
the classifieds 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 of the
classifieds. For example, when you enter personal
information on the ad posting form, this
information will generally be included in your ad,
unless specifically stated otherwise.

With
whom your information may be shared
As a
general rule, LDS Matching.com 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.
LDS
Matching.com 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 LDS Matching.com or may be causing injury to
or interference with (either intentionally or
unintentionally) the rights or property of the LDS
Matching.com, other users of the LDS Matching.com,
or anyone else that could be harmed by such
activities. LDS Matching.com 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
classifieds, 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 the classifieds that require
registration in order to participate. These
services include the identification of new ads that
have been posted since your last visit, auto-fillin
of the logon form, and the Checklist feature. You
can still use most of the features of the
classifieds even if you do not accept
cookies.
The LDS
Matching.com 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 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 the classifieds, 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 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
classifieds 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 the classifieds or other
authorized personnel of the LDS Matching.com, 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. LDS Matching.com 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. 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, LDS
Matching.com 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
LDS Matching.com protects children's
privacy
LDS
Matching.com is a general audience web site.
Children should always ask a parent for permission
before sending personal information to anyone
online. LDS Matching.com 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, LDS Matching.com will not send
any direct email offers to users who indicate they
are under the age of 13.

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.
