Welcome to uRecommendMe.com

We want you to know that we respect your privacy and that we value your business. This privacy statement covers the uRecommendMe.com software and the URecommendMe.com website ( www.uRecommendMe.com ). In order to ensure your privacy we want you to know the details of what information we collect and what we do with it.

INFORMATION COLLECTION:
uRecommendMe.com takes your privacy very seriously. In order to provide you with the highest quality service, we do collect certain information from you in accordance with the following guidelines.

DIRECT SUBBMISSIONS:
In order to provide you with excellent service and a superior customer experience uRecommendMe.com has several areas where you can submit information to us and we also have features that automatically collect information from users of our service. Some of the information you may choose to provide includes personally identifiable information such as your name, address, age, gender, activities, history and interests. In addition, we may collect information linked to your communications preferences, your payment and billing information, your searches and purchases, your work history, activity history and other requested information on surveys that are presented to you.

COOKIES & OTHER TECHNOLOGIES:
uRecommendMe.com may use cookies or other technologies for several purposes all designed to improve the customer experience. Within the uRecommendMe.com service we may use either what are commonly called temporary or "session" cookies as well as permanent or "persistent" cookies. Temporary or "session" cookies mean that they only last as long as you are online. We may use these cookies to identify you as a valid member so that we can deliver specific content to you, and to help us personalize your service experience based on your registration, activity and educational preferences. We may also use session cookies to help us facilitate any promotions or surveys that we provide. Within the site, we may also use session cookies to keep track of your shopping cart. These cookies do not contain any personally identifying information and we do not store data collected by them.

We may as part of the sign-in process for our service or within our purchase module, use what are commonly called "persistent" cookies which stay with you after your session is over and you are offline. We may use these cookies in connection with a sign-in feature that allows you to save your member name and password so that the next time you sign in, these fields will be pre-populated for you. If we make this cookie available, it can only be activated if you select that option during your sign-in. If you select that option you can always deselect it each time you sign-in.

We may sometimes use cookies, as well as other tracking technology, such as web beacons, within the promotional emails that we send to our members or advertisements for our service or sites. These technologies help us track, for example, whether an e-mail recipient has completed an event, such as signing up for a trial. The generated information is related to non-personally identifiable customer identification numbers and is only analyzed at aggregate levels. We may send these emails via third-party service providers that act on our behalf.

We sometimes utilize third party service providers to help us track the activity and user flows within our service or sites. These third parties may use temporary cookies and/or web beaconing technology to facilitate such tracking. Such tracking would track an individual user's movements but the data would not be tracked in a personally identifiable way. Such data would be stored and analyzed on an aggregated basis for purposes of internal analysis by URecommendMe.com to continue to optimize our customer experience.

If we engage with any advertising partners and or other third parties, our approved advertising partners and third parties whose products or services are promoted on our site may also use cookies, and we advise you to check their privacy policies for information about their cookies and other privacy practices if you are presented with one of their offers during your association with uRecommendMe.com.

LOG FILES & IP ADDRESSES:
We use internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track users' movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked by uRecommendMe.com to personally identifiable information and are not kept after the statistics are logged in the aggregated database. The information we collect is used for internal review and overall and broad statistical purposes. However, users should be aware that both static and dynamic IP addresses can be mapped back to users on most ISPs based on the users login time and recorded information.

INFORMATION USE:
We may share non-personally identifiable information about our users with our partners and advertisers except as specifically stated. In addition, there are times where it may be advantageous for uRecommendMe.com to make certain personally identifiable information about you available to companies that uRecommendMe.com has a strategic relationship with or that perform work in conjunction with the user experience. These companies may provide services such as those that fulfill customer service orders, those that extend credit, deliver products and or ancillary services to you, enhance and manage customer data, conduct market research for uRecommendMe.com. These companies are also required to protect your personal information in accordance with uRecommendMe.com 's policies. Without our ability to integrate and share with these strategic partners it would be difficult for you to purchase and utilize uRecommendMe.com products and services, receive the appropriate quality and level of customer service and provide us the data needed to best improve our products and services.

In an endeavor to improve the customer experience we may also purchase marketing data from third parties and add it to our existing user database, to better target our features, services and offers in which we think you may be interested. To enrich our profiles of existing customers, we may tie this information to personally identifiable information that you have given to us.

LINKS:
In an attempt to provide increased value to our visitors, we may choose various third party web sites to link from or frame within the uRecommendMe.com website. We also participate in co-branding, advertising and other relationships to offer e-commerce and other services and features to our users. Information about you may be visible to subsequent websites if you link off of the uRecommendMe.com website. However, even if the third party is affiliated with us, we have no control over these linked sites, each of which has separate privacy and data collection practices independent of us. Data collected by our co-brand partners, advertisers or third party web sites (even if offered on or through our site) is not received by us. As such, we are not responsible for, or have any control over, the content or the privacy policies of those third party websites, and encourage all users to read the privacy policies of each and every website visited when linking from uRecommendMe.com.com. These linked sites are only for your convenience and you therefore access them at your own risk. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by uRecommendMe.com.
