MOTO BRAVO PRIVACY POLICY
Effective date: October 11, 2005
Moto Bravo, LLC respects the privacy of visitors to our site. This Privacy
Policy governs the use and collection of information from you by Moto Bravo,
LLC ("we" or "us") through your use of this site. This Privacy Policy does
not apply to any information you may provide to us through other means; for
example, at a live event, via mail, or via telephone. Please read this
Privacy Policy carefully so that you understand our online privacy
practices. By visiting this site, you agree that your visit, and any dispute
over our online privacy practices, is governed by this Privacy Policy and
our Visitor Agreement. Questions regarding privacy issues should be directed
to: info@motobravo.com.
CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
Children should always get permission from their parents before sending any
information about themselves (such as their names, email addresses, and
phone numbers) over the Internet, to us or to anyone else. We won't
knowingly allow anyone under 13 to register with our site or to provide any
other personally identifying information. If you're under 13, please do not
provide us with any personally identifying information about yourself (such
as your name, your email address or your phone number).
TYPES OF INFORMATION WE COLLECT
The information we gather falls into two categories: (1) information (for
example, your name and address) that you voluntarily supply when you
register or initiate transactions, and (2) information gathered on usage
patterns and preferences as visitors navigate through our sites, use our
services such as free email, or read our email newsletters. In some cases,
it is an agent or affiliate of ours that collects the information on our
behalf. Third party providers featured on or linked to by our site, such as
vendors of products and services offered through our site, may be gathering
the same kinds of information.
Registration Information.
To make use of certain features on our site (such
as to receive email newsletters, or post a classified ad) visitors need to
register and to provide certain information as part of the registration
process. We may also ask for information from those who buy products or
services or conduct other transactions on our site. (We may ask, for
example, for your name, email address, sex, age, zip code or credit card
number, and we might request information on your interest in sports,
personal finance, the performing arts, and the like.) The information you
supply will help us to offer you more personalized features, to tailor our
site to your interests and make them more useful to you, and to process
e-commerce transactions that may be made available on our site. The more you
tell us about yourself, the more value we can offer you. Supplying such
information is entirely voluntary. But if you don't supply the information
we need, we may be unable to provide you with services we make available to
other visitors to our site. For example, we can't send you email alerting
you to a new service we're offering, or breaking news that may interest you
if you don't tell us what you're interested in and give us your email
address. Please see the "Shopping" section below to learn more about
purchasing products or services on our site.
Contests and Other Promotions.
From time to time, we may offer contests,
sweepstakes or other promotions on our site. If you enter one of these
promotions, you'll have to provide information about yourself (such as your
name, address, telephone number and email address) so that we can contact
you if you win. If you don't want us to collect the information requested in
the registration form, please do not enter the contest or sweepstakes.
Email Newsletters. We may also offer you the opportunity
to subscribe to
email newsletters on topics that we believe are of interest to our visitors.
If you have opted to receive a particular newsletter, you may always
unsubscribe later if you decide not to receive further mailings of the
newsletter from us. See "Opting Out" below.
Cookies. To help make our sites more responsive to the needs of our
visitors, we use a standard feature of browser software, called a "cookie,"
to assign each visitor a unique, random number, a sort of user ID, if you
will, that resides on your computer. The cookie doesn't actually identify
the visitor, just the computer that a visitor uses to access our site.
Unless you voluntarily identify yourself (through registration, for
example), we won't know who you are, even if we assign a cookie to your
computer. The only personal information a cookie can contain is information
you supply. A cookie can't read unrelated data off your hard drive. Our
advertisers and the third parties that provide products or services through
our site may also assign their own cookies to your browser, a process that
we don't control. We use cookies to help us tailor our site to your needs,
to deliver a better, more personalized service. For example, we use cookies
to avoid showing you the same ad, repeatedly, during a single visit. In
addition, we may use cookies to track the pages on our site visited by our
users. We can build a better site if we know which pages our users are
visiting and how often. Of course, you can set your browser not to accept
cookies, but if you do, you may not be able to take advantage of the
personalized features enjoyed by other visitors to our site.
Other Methods of Collecting Information. Our web pages may contain
electronic images (called "single-pixel GIFs" or "web beacons") that allow
us and our vendors to count users who have visited particular pages or to
access certain cookies. We may use these tools and other technologies to
recognize which pages users visit, and which links they click on. These
features may also be included in our email newsletters so that we can learn
which messages have been opened and acted upon. We may also be able to
verify your online purchases from us or from third party sites that have
agreed to share such information with us.
Browser Level Information and IP Addresses. Our web servers automatically
collect limited information about your computer configuration when you visit
our site, including the type of browser software you use, the operating
system you're running, the resolution of your computer monitor, the website
that referred you, and your IP address. (Your IP address is a numerical
address that is used by computers connected to the Internet to identify your
computer so that data (such as the web pages you want to view) can be
transmitted to you. We also use IP address information for systems
administration and trouble shooting purposes. Your IP address does not tell
us who you are.) We use this information to deliver our web pages to you
upon request, to tailor our site to the interests of our users, and to
measure traffic within our site.
Third Party Cookies. In the course of serving advertisements to this
site, our third-party advertiser may place or recognize a unique cookie on your browser.
DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION
Advertisers. Without your permission, we will not share the
personally-identifiable information you provide when registering on our site
with advertisers. We may, however, take the information you provide and
aggregate it with data from all the other people that use this site and
associated services. Then we will use that pool of information to inform our
advertisers about our audience without identifying you personally.
Vendors and Service Providers. To make our sites more valuable to our
visitors, we may offer some features in conjunction with other providers
("Provider Partners"). Our chat, email newsletters, email services and
online classifieds for example, may be made available through cooperative
arrangements with providers that specialize in operating such services. In
some instances, our Provider Partners will have the same access to your
information as we do. Their use of the information will be subject to the
terms of their respective privacy policies, which you can find on their
websites.
Statistical Information. Much of the information we collect is in the form
of aggregated statistics, such as the traffic that visits various pages
within our sites, and the habits and preferences of our audience. Such
aggregated information does not include any information that would identify
you personally. We may use such aggregated information and disclose it to
third parties as we see fit.
Sites to Which We Link. Of course, our site includes links to plenty of
other websites, and provide access to products and services offered by third
parties, whose privacy policies we don't control. When you access another
site or purchase products or services or conduct other transactions through
our sites, use of any information you provide is governed by the privacy
policy of the operator of the site you're visiting or the provider of such
products or services, even if it appears that you're on MOTO BRAVO,
INC.-branded pages.
Other Disclosures. We may occasionally release information about our
visitors when release is appropriate to comply with law, to enforce our
Visitor Agreement, or to protect the rights, property or safety of visitors
to our sites, the public, our customers, or our company and its employees,
agents, partners and affiliates. As our business grows, we may buy or sell
various assets. In the unlikely event that our company, or the bulk of our
assets relating to this site, is acquired by another company, information on
our visitors would be among the transferred assets. Of course, any
information that you include in a message that you post in any forum or
other public posting area will be available to anyone with Internet access.
If you don't want people to know your name or email address, please do not
include them in any message that you post publicly.
SHOPPING For e-commerce transactions that may be made available on this site, when
you are ready to make a purchase on our site, we will ask you to provide us
with certain information, including your contact details (such as your name,
address, telephone and email), and your billing information (such as your
credit card number and the date that your card expires). We may also ask you
to provide additional information such as unique identifiers (such as your
date of birth), and registration information (login name and password). You
will be able to review, update, or delete the information you have provided
us (except, of course any information that we do not store) at any time by
accessing your account on our site.
We will use the information you provide us to process your transaction and
to contact you regarding your purchase if necessary. We will share this
information with our Provider Partners to the extent necessary to facilitate
your purchase (for purposes such as customer service, verification,
fulfillment and billing purposes). We will not sell or rent your personal
billing information to any third party. We may share non-financial
information with our Provider Partners in accordance with this Privacy
Policy. If you consent (for example, by checking a box or by some other
means), we will make your information available to third parties so that
they, we, or both may contact you directly regarding special offers,
promotions, products or services that may be of interest to you.
OPTING OUT If you register with us, you will have the opportunity to review, update, or
delete the information you have provided us at any time (except, of course,
any information that we do not store) (Click Here). If you remove your
registration information completely, you may not be able to continue using
certain services that require registration (such as free email). You agree
that we may use your information to contact you for customer service, to
inform you of important changes or additions to our site or the services
offered over our site and to send you administrative notices or any
communications relevant to your use of our site. If you do not wish to
receive these notices, please do not register with this site.
If you have subscribed to one of our email newsletters, you will always have
the opportunity to unsubscribe from future mailings (for example, by
clicking on an unsubscribe link in an email newsletter or by going back to
our site).
If you have submitted your information on a page provided in conjunction
with one of our Provider Partners, the information you submit may be jointly
maintained by us and the Provider Partner. If you decide to opt out on our
site, you may also need to contact the Provider Partner separately to
request the Provider Partner to remove your information from its database.
STORAGE OF INFORMATION All information gathered on our site is stored within a database operated by
us or by a contractor on our behalf. Sensitive information, such as your
password is encoded for storage. For e-commerce transactions that may be
made available on our site, in certain instances we may transmit your
billing information using encryption. Encryption scrambles your credit card
number and personal information. However, as effective as encryption
technology is, no security system is impenetrable. We cannot guarantee the
security of our database, nor can we guarantee that information you supply
won't be intercepted while being transmitted to us over the Internet.
CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY A final note: The Web is an evolving medium. If we need to change our
privacy policy at some point in the future, we'll post the changes before
they take effect.
