Animal Help: Privacy Policy

PRIVACY POLICY
This Privacy Policy is designed to inform you about AnimalHelp.Com's practices regarding the collection, use and disclosure of personal information (includes information that could be used to identify you, such as your name, address, e-mail address, phone number etc.) that you may provide through your access to or usage of the Site.

Consent
AnimalHelp.Com does not collect personal information about you except when you voluntarily provide it. Whenever you voluntarily provide information through your access to or usage of the Site, you consent to the collection, use and disclosure of that information in accordance with the provisions of this Privacy Policy.

When we collect your personal information and how we use it
Personal information may be collected in a number of instances. For example, this Site contains areas that collect information from its visitors through feedback data, such as questions, comments and suggestions. Some of the information that you provide through feedback data may be personal information. In addition, access to certain areas of the Site is restricted. In order to apply to access these restricted areas you are required to submit a registration application form which may include personal information. Further, some areas of the Site require you to submit information which may include personal information in order to benefit from specified features (such as newsletters). You will be informed at each collection point what information is required and what information is optional. AnimalHelp.Com may also collect information about you and your use of the Site through the use of "cookies". Cookies are small data files that are sent to your browser and stored on your computer's hard-drive when you visit certain websites, thereby "tracking" use of the Site. Some browsers can be set to reject all cookies; if you choose to modify your browser in this manner, some pages of the Site may not function properly. AnimalHelp.Com uses the information generated through the use of cookies to estimate the number of people that are using the Site and to track the pages of the Site that are being visited. This information tells AnimalHelp.Com about user interests and behaviours which can, in turn, be used to provide you with information about products, services, features or promotions that may be of interest to you.

Use of Information
AnimalHelp.Com uses your personal information to improve the content of the Site, to customise the Site to your preferences, to create a profile relating to you in order to show you content that may be of interest to you, to provide the services and features requested by you and, if you ask us to, to send you information about products, services, features or promotions that may be of interest to you. AnimalHelp.Com gives you the opportunity to "opt-in" to receiving such information when your personal information is attached. AnimalHelp.Com may also use your personal information to create aggregated information that does not allow you to be personally identified or contacted. Rather than showing individual activity, aggregated information shows user behaviour as a whole. Aggregated information is used for Site development and to market and promote the Site.

When we disclose your personal information
AnimalHelp.Com may disclose your personal information to those of its affiliates and related companies (both in and outside the European Economic Area) that agree to treat it substantially in accordance with this Privacy Policy. AnimalHelp.Com will not, without your permission, disclose your personal information to unaffiliated third parties except that AnimalHelp.Com reserves the right to disclose your personal information to: (i) third party service providers for purposes related to supporting our business (e.g., fulfilment services, technical support, delivery services) and providing you with information that may be of interest to you (if you have opted in to receiving such information as described above) in which case AnimalHelp.Com will require such third parties to agree to treat it substantially in accordance with this Privacy Policy; and (ii) to third parties in connection with the sale, assignment or other transfer of the business of this Site to which the information relates, in which case AnimalHelp.Com will require any such buyer, assignee or transferee to agree to treat it substantially in accordance with this Privacy Policy. AnimalHelp.Com will otherwise only release your personal information to third parties in the following limited circumstances to the extent permitted by law: (i) if a law, regulation, search warrant, subpoena or court order permits or requires it to do so;(ii) if the rights or property of AnimalHelp.Com, its affiliates and related companies, third party service providers or the users of the Site are in jeopardy; and (iii) if the personal safety of users of the Site or other members of the public are in jeopardy. AnimalHelp.Com may disclose aggregated information which does not allow you to be personally identified to its affiliates and related companies and to unaffiliated third parties.

How we protect your personal information
Recognising that your privacy is important to you, AnimalHelp.Com employs technical security measures to protect your personal information. However, no transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Consequently, to the extent permitted by law, AnimalHelp.Com, its affiliates and related companies, third party service providers and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents do not represent, warrant or guarantee that personal information will be protected against misuse, loss or alterations and do not accept any liability for personal information submitted to them nor for your or third parties' use or misuse of personal information.
