General

We only collect personal information from you that you have provided to us voluntarily, and we will only collect such personal information (e.g., name, email address, and mailing address), which is needed to fulfil your requests and our legitimate business objectives. If you refuse to divulge your personal information when requested, you will not be able to access certain areas on the Sites (such as the message boards).

Protected Information

Some information provided by Conperior either directly or via the Site may include information that is visible with the use of digital rights management software or systems. Such information will only be provided to specific individuals who have accurately and completely provided Conperior with the personal identification information required. The recipients rights to access and view such protected information is conditional upon their accurate and truthful representation of themselves.

To be eligible to receive protected information Conperior will require from you your email address, state and country of residence, zip/postal code, real full name, current employment or industry affiliation, and your stated reason for interest in the information.

Memberships and Registration

In order for you to register an account with Conperior we require you to provide us with an email address, state and country of residence, zip/postal code, birth date and gender; we allow you to elect whether to also provide your real name. Some areas may allow you to visit as a guest and remain anonymous, but you may not be able to access all the content and features of those areas without registering (in order to play our subscription based games, additional information, such as your real name and billing information, will be required).

You may be asked to choose a user or member name and password. Please do not use your real name or the real name of another person when selecting a user name. Please note that your user name will be available to the Internet’s general public while you participate in some services, like chat rooms or message boards, so you should exercise discretion when using these services. Personal information disclosed by you within our chat areas, instant message service, message boards, can be collected by other users of such services and may result in unsolicited messages. Conperior is not responsible for protecting such information that you may disclose to third parties through our services (e.g. sending your telephone number to another user through the chat service). To the extent that you create a public profile that may be available to others on our sites and services, you are solely responsible for its content and accuracy at all times. To edit, change, or delete such information, follow the instructions on the web site.

Surveys, Contests, and Promotions

To participate in some of our contests, surveys, and other promotions, you may be asked to provide additional personal information such as your mailing address. In each such case, no new personal information will be collected from you without your consent. This information may be collected by Conperior or by third parties such as co-sponsors or vendors for the promotion. Conperior’s use of any such information will be governed by this Policy. The names of third parties such as co-sponsors (other than vendors hired by Conperior to conduct, administer, and execute a promotion on behalf of Conperior) will be disclosed to you when you are asked to sign up for the promotion. You should review such third parties’ privacy policies to see how they may use any information that they collect.

Resume Submissions and Business Capacity

Conperior is not currently accepting the online submission of resumes. Please be advised that information (including personal information) contained in a job applicant’s resume or otherwise submitted to Conperior in a business capacity is not subject to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

Non-personal Information

General, aggregated, demographic, and non-personal information may be collected by Conperior. It will not be linked to any of your personal information, through cookies or other means, without your consent. This type of anonymous, aggregated profiling and session data may include information that you have provided to us through surveys, polls, etc., but will not be tied to any personal information, without your consent. It may also include aggregated anonymous information about site usage and the customer base.

As part of the registration process for some services, you may be asked to provide information that does not personally identify you. For example, you may be asked to provide information concerning your entertainment preferences, purchasing habits, and the like. This information is generally optional but may be included in your account profile and tied to personal information. Conperior requests this information to understand you better and to also bring to your attention new services, programs, or offers that may be of interest to you.

In many cases, Conperior will automatically collect certain non-personal information about your use of its sites and services. Conperior might collect, among other things, information concerning the type of Internet browser or computer operating system you are using, the domain name of your Internet service provider, your “click path” through the site, and the web site or advertisement that was linked to or from the Conperior site when you visited. To do this, Conperior may use cookies and other technology (see below). Your visits to our web sites, and information provided through these technologies, will be anonymous unless you provide us with personal information or have provided such information in the past.

Information on cookies and related technology

Conperior web sites, and some services and advertisements on such sites, may contain “cookies.” A cookie is a piece of data that is sent to your browser, which will store the cookie on your computer if your browser is enabled to accept cookies. Clear gifs (also known as “web beacons”) assist in the delivery of cookies

Conperior uses cookies, clear gifs, frames, server log analysis and other technology to customize your experience with our sites and services. Personal information collected through the use of these technologies will be handled according to this Policy.

Most internet browsers will allow you to erase cookies from your computer hard drive, block acceptance of cookies, or receive a warning before a cookie is stored. You should refer to your browser instructions or “Help” screen to learn more about how to manage cookies. Please note, however, that if you block cookies, some portions of the Conperior web sites and services may not function properly.

Use of Information

Personal information which we collect for a particular purpose will only be saved and used for that purpose, unless you have agreed to allow us to use it for some other purpose, as described in this Policy.

When you have provided personal information to us for a particular purpose, we may disclose your information to other companies that we have engaged to assist us in fulfilling your request. We may also disclose any of your personal information to law enforcement or other appropriate third parties in connection with criminal investigations, investigation of fraud, infringement of intellectual property rights, or other suspected illegal activities, or as otherwise may be required by applicable law, or, as we deem necessary in our sole discretion, in order to protect the legitimate legal and business interests of Conperior.

We may use the information we collect from you for the purpose of providing you with technical support, customer service, and account maintenance. We use the information we collect to learn what you like, tailor your experience accordingly, and to improve web sites and our other products. We send e-mail to our members who want to receive e-mail from us. However, if you don’t want to receive e-mail from us, you can “opt out” of receiving it at the time you register as a member on our web sites or each time we request information from you. If you change your mind and wish to stop receiving e-mails from us, you may also choose to opt out by following the steps described in each such e-mail.

Conperior may send limited e-mail communications to you even if you have elected not to receive general notifications from us. However, Conperior commits that such e-mail will contain only information we consider highly significant and will be limited to no more than four occasions per calendar year.

Except as described in this policy, we will not give any of your personal information to any third party without your express approval, and the only personal information we will ask you if you want us to share with third parties is your name, your mailing address and e-mail address. We sometimes share general, demographic, or aggregated (not personal) information with third parties about our user base, but that information does not include any personal information.

You will be deemed to have consented to the disclosure to, and use by, a subsequent owner or operator of the Sites, of any personal information contained in the Conperior database for such site, if Conperior or one of its companies assigns all of its rights and obligations regarding the use of your personal information at the time of a bankruptcy, merger, acquisition, sale of all or substantially all of Conperior’s or such Conperior company’s assets to a subsequent owner or operator, or similar event.

Third Party Sites

This Policy applies only to information collected online by Conperior through web sites maintained by Conperior and affiliated companies that Conperior may own or control. From time to time, we may provide links to third party web sites. This Policy does not apply to third party web sites, whether we provide a link to such sites or not, so we encourage you to review the policies of all such sites carefully, as your rights will be governed by those third party policies and not by Conperior’s. Additionally, there may be unauthorized third party web sites that may be providing links from their sites to our web sites without our knowledge or control. Conperior is not responsible for the content of any third party web sites, expressly disclaim any statements or assertions made on such web sites, and deny all liability associated with your use of, and the content on, such other sites or advertisements contained therein.
