Enswer.me Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies only to information we collect about you at http://www.enswer.me/ (the "Website") and how we use this information. This policy does not apply to information about you collected by our affiliated providers or third party Web sites and offerings linked to or otherwise accessible from Enswer.me. The information collected or received by our affiliated providers and these third parties is subject to their own privacy policies.

1. Collection of Your Enswer.me Information

   Your "Enswer.me information" includes certain technical information gathered or received when you use Enswer.me. Some of the technical information that may be collected or received includes: the type of browser you are using (e.g., Netscape, Internet Explorer), the type of operating system you are using (e.g., Windows or Mac OS), CPU type, your manner of connecting to the Internet (e.g., connection speed through narrowband or broadband access); Internet protocol address; information about the version of service from an affiliate that you used prior to registering with the service; other information about your geographic location; and the domain name of your Internet service provider.
   
   While registering to use most of the Enswer.me services is not required, there are a limited number of optional services (for example, saving a playlist, creating a profile) that require an "account". If you choose to "Get an Account", you will need to register with and provide information to Enswer.me. You will then obtain a User ID or other credentials issued by Enswer.me (collectively, "User ID") in order to access and use these optional services, and your User ID and associated services account will be subject to the Terms of Use (http://www.enswer.me/termsofuse/) indicated in your registration process.

2. How Your Enswer.me Information is Used

   Your Enswer.me information is used

   1. to operate and improve the websites, services and offerings available through Enswer.me;
   2. to personalize the content provided to you;
   3. to fulfill your requests for products, programs, and services;
   4. to communicate with you and respond to your inquiries;
   5. to conduct research about your use of Enswer.me; and
   6. to help offer you other products, programs, or services that may be of interest.

   Your Enswer.me information will not be shared with third parties unless it is necessary to fulfill a request, in other circumstances in which you have consented to the sharing of your Enswer.me information, or except as described in this Privacy Policy. We may use your Enswer.me information to present offers to you on behalf of business partners and advertisers. These business partners and advertisers receive aggregate data about groups of Enswer.me users, but do not receive information that personally identifies you.
   
   If you use our communications tools to disclose information about yourself publicly (for example, by making your ID and/or playlists publicly available), other online users may obtain access to any information you provide. The contents of your online communications, as well as other information about you as an Enswer.me user, may be accessed and disclosed in response to legal process (for example, a court order, search warrant or subpoena); in other circumstances in which we believe Enswer.me is being used in the commission of a crime; when we have a good faith belief that there is an emergency that poses a threat to the safety of you or another person; or when necessary either to protect our rights or property or the rights or property of our affiliated providers, or for us to render the service you have requested. We may use agents and contractors in order to help operate the service. If such agents and contractors have access to your Enswer.me information, they are required to protect this information in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy by, for example, not using the information for any purpose other than to carry out the services they are performing for Enswer.me.
   
   In the event that ownership of us or the Enswer.me service was to change as a result of a merger, acquisition or transfer to another company, your Enswer.me information may be transferred. If such a transfer results in a material change in the use of your Enswer.me information, we will provide notice about the choices you have to decline to permit such a transfer.

3. Your Choices About Your Information

   If you want to change your account information (for example, your User ID) you will need to log on to Enswer.me. Your access to your account information and choices will be governed by Enswer.me policies.

4. Cookies, Web Beacons and Similar Technologies

   Cookies are text files that are placed in your computer's browser, and that can be used to help recognize you as a Enswer.me user. Web beacons are small pieces of code placed on Web pages that can be used, among other things, to count the users who visit that Web page, or to deliver a cookie to the browser of a user viewing that page. You can control cookies through your browser's settings. If you reject all cookies, however, you will not be able to take advantage of certain Enswer.me offerings.
   
   We may use cookies, web beacons or similar technologies in combination with your Enswer.me information to enhance and personalize your experience on Enswer.me, including to operate and improve offerings through Enswer.me; to help authenticate you when you use Enswer.me; to remember your preferences; to present and help measure and research the effectiveness of Enswer.me offerings and advertisements; and, to customize the content and advertisements provided to you through Enswer.me.
   
   Enswer.me and its advertisers may use advertising network providers to help present advertisements on Enswer.me. These advertising networks may use cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies on your computer in order to provide targeted advertisements about goods and services that may be of interest to you while visiting other Web sites. Enswer.me may share certain non-personally identifiable information about you as a Enswer.me user with certain ad network providers help them deliver more relevant advertisements through their ad networks. The use of cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies by ad network providers is subject to their own privacy policies.

5. Security

   We have established safeguards to help prevent unauthorized access to or misuse of your Enswer.me information, but cannot guarantee that this information will never be disclosed in a manner inconsistent with this Privacy Policy (for example, as a result of unauthorized acts by third parties that violate applicable law or the policies of the service and its affiliated providers).
