Scope
This Privacy Policy covers BestToRead.com treatment of personally identifiable information that we collect when you are on BestToRead.com web site and when you use our services. This policy also covers our treatment of any personally identifiable information that our business partners or customers share with us.
Cookies
A "cookie" is a small data text file that is placed in your browser and allows BestToRead.com to recognize you each time you visit this site (customisation etc). Cookies themselves do not contain any personal information, and BestToRead.com does not use cookies to collect personal information. Cookies may also be used by 3rd party content providers.
What information do we gather?
The only individually identifiable information that we collect about you is that which you choose to share with us in registration, when using our products and services, or when responding to offers from BestToRead.com or from our business partners or customers.
We also collect information about aggregate site usage. Statistics that we gather about unique visits, referring URL's, repeat visits and page views are all based on IP address, and are not associated with your personal information.
At the time of registration, we only ask for your email address and a user name you select. From time to time, BestToRead.com may survey its members for additional personal information. Aggregate information about our users is valuable to our advertisers as it provides them with more effective channels for reaching potential customers. Without advertising support, we could not keep the Web site free for use.
We share aggregate information with our partners and advertisers. We will not share your personally identifiable information with any third party, unless we tell you otherwise when we collect the information, you have consented by "opting in" to being contacted by BestToRead.com, its third party partners or advertisers, or we have informed you of a change to our privacy policy so that you can then choose to opt out. We will give you a way to "opt out" of being contacted by BestToRead.com.
In short, the information you provide us can help us understand how to make our Web site more useful to our users.
Opting-Out
We do not share your personally identifiable information with anyone, unless we tell you otherwise when we collect the information, you "opt-in" to having your information shared with third parties, or we have informed you of a change to our privacy policy so that you can choose to opt out.
When we ask you for personal information, such as the kind of information we may ask you for through a survey, or through a request for an investor kit on a company we featured in BestToRead.com, we will tell you if we intend to share it with others. Once you have "opted in" and agreed that your information may be shared with third parties or you have responded to an offer by any third party on the BestToRead Web sites, BestToRead.com can no longer update any of your personally identifiable information that has been transferred to such third parties or opt you out of such third parties so that you no longer receive their promotional and/or marketing information. Instead, you must either contact that third party or refer to their privacy policy to update your personally identifiable information or to let them know that you no longer want to receive promotional and/or marketing information about their products, services, or offerings.
Remember The Risks Whenever You Use The Internet
Other Internet sites or services that may be accessible through BestToRead.com have separate data and privacy practices independent of us, and therefore we disclaim any responsibility or liability for their policies or actions. You are advised to read the privacy policy of external sites before disclosing any personal information.
Changes to the BestToRead.com Privacy Policy
BestToRead.com may amend this policy from time to time. If we make any substantial changes in the way we use your personal information we will notify you by posting a prominent notice in our privacy policy or in other locations on our Web site or by sending you an email to inform you of our updated privacy policy. Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner. However, if users have opted out of all communication with the Web site, or deleted/deactivated their account, then they will not be contacted, nor will their personal information be used in this new manner.
