Your privacy and the security of the information that you provide to us is important to us and we take the privacy and security of the users of this website seriously. To better protect your privacy and the security of your information, we provide this Privacy Policy to explain our information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used on FilipinasLive website, FilipinasLive.com. To make this Policy easy to find, we make links to this Privacy Policy available on our homepage and at every point where personally identifiable information may be requested. FilipinasLive.com will not use your personal information except as outlined in this Privacy Policy. By using our website you consent to the terms of this Policy. This Policy applies to users in the United States only. Users in other countries should refer to the Privacy Policy available on each distinct international website for FilipinasLive which can be found from our corporate website.
What Information Do We Collect?
FilipinasLive will not collect any personally identifiable information about you through our website unless you provide it to us voluntarily. The information we collect varies, depending on how you use our site. This Policy applies to all information collected or submitted to FilipinasLive.com. On some pages, you can make requests to join email announcement lists, enroll in customer loyalty programs, enter contests, participate in promotional events, register to receive materials from us or from others, or receive other types of information. The types of personal information collected include: name, shipping address, billing address, e-mail address, phone number, credit card information to complete purchases, and other general questions relating to areas of interest on our website.
We also collect aggregate, non-personally-identifiable information on users by recording the IP address from the computers of visitors to our site. An IP address is a number that is assigned to your computer when you surf the Web. Web servers, or the computers that provide the web pages to your computer for you to view, automatically identify your computer by its IP address. When you use your computer to request to view a page from a server, that server logs your IP address. FilipinasLive.com does not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable. Your visit to FilipinasLive.com will be logged; however, you will remain anonymous to us unless you choose to share information with us. We track the number of people that view each page of our website to better understand which features are most popular and best meet the needs of our visitors.
How Do We Use Your Information?
We may use the information we request from you to notify you of FilipinasLive products and services, sales and promotions, or other matters that may be of interest to you. The information we collect from you may be shared with our affiliates, subsidiaries and/or agents, and may be used to provide services and other information that you request from us. Sharing your information enables our partners to follow-up with you on information you request, to complete your transaction or to perform other services that you may request from us. We do not authorize any of those third parties to make any other use of your information. We may also use your information for market research purposes.
We will not sell or rent your personally identifiable information to anyone. We will send personally identifiable information about you to other companies or people when:
- We have your consent to do so.
- We need to share the information in order to provide the product or service you have requested.
- We need to send the information to companies who work on behalf of FilipinasLive to provide a product or service for you on our behalf and to provide other services, including, but not limited to, payment processing, shipping, order tracking, promotional fulfillment, and customer service. Unless we tell you differently, these companies do not have any right to use the personally identifiable information we provide to them beyond what is necessary to assist us, unless they have your consent to do so.
- We need to respond to valid legal process. This includes a search warrant, subpoena, or court order, and any other instance when we believe we are required to do so by law. FilipinasLive may share aggregated, non-personally identifiable information about our users with affiliates or other third parties for marketing and promotional purposes.
As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy stores, subsidiaries, or business units. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets, but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Policy (unless you consent otherwise). Also, in the event that FilipinasLive, or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer information will of course be one of the transferred assets.
