Personally Identifying Information Provided to and Collected by Times42
Any information a user shares using Times42's services about himself or herself will be deemed a voluntary disclosure of very limited personal information. Personally identifiable information that our site will collect and store may include username, mail address and password.
Users will also have the option of permitting Times42 to collect, store, and post your personal information shared on other social networking services. Times42 will not collect, store, or post this information unless a user has expressly opted-in to this service by agreeing to the “allow access” verification upon signup or by choosing to opt-in to the service post signup. However, Times42 will not reciprocate – we will not share your information collected via our services or our opted-in access to your other social networking services with those services you have granted us access to.
You never have to answer any questions, and you can decline this exchange of information at any time. However, if you should choose to withhold requested information, we may not be able to provide you with some of the services dependent upon the collection of this information. Depending upon the activity, some of the information that we ask you to provide is identified as mandatory and some as voluntary. If you do not provide the mandatory data with respect to a particular activity, you will not be able to engage in that activity. Times42 will inform you of the mandatory and/or optional character of the requested and/or required information.
As a registered user, you have the right to access and change your personal information and privacy preferences at any time by logging into your personal account, where you can view and make changes to your personal information.
Times42's Disclosures of Your Information
Aside from the few narrow exceptions directly addressed in this Privacy Policy, the personal information that you share via Times42 services will be accessible to everyone visiting your Times42 profile, including users visiting our website as non-registered members.
Times42 reserves the right to disclose certain information in the files we maintain about you, and the other information we obtain from your current and past activities at Times42, to resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems and enforce our Terms of Service. At times, we may review the data of multiple members to identify problems or resolve disputes. Times42 is committed to cooperating with law enforcement inquiries, as well as other third parties, to enforce laws, such as: intellectual property rights, fraud and other rights.
By accepting our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, you authorize us to disclose any information about you to law enforcement and other government officials as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate, in connection with any investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringements, or other activity that is illegal or may expose you or us to legal liability.
Times42 reserves the right to use your personally identifiable information for internal research, such as to improve our marketing and promotional efforts, to analyze Times42 services usage, improve our content and product offerings, and customize our services. However, Times42 does not sell your information to advertisers or other similar third parties for their commercial use.
In the event that all or substantially all of Times42's stock and/or all or substantially all assets are transferred or sold to another entity, Times42 may transfer personally identifiable information to the acquiring entity. If, as a result of such a business transition, your personally identifiable information will be used in a materially different manner, you will be given choice consistent with our policy regarding notification of changes. When you submit personal information to Times42, you understand and agree that this information may be transferred across national boundaries and may be stored and processed in any of the countries in which Times42 and its affiliates and subsidiaries maintain offices. You also acknowledge that in certain countries or with respect to certain activities, the collection, transferring, storage, and processing of your information may be undertaken by trusted vendors of Times42. Such vendors are bound by contract not to use your personal information for their own purposes or provide it to any third parties.
Times42 services may be subject to the laws of various jurisdictions, because access to Times42 services may use internet traffic of different jurisdictions, including European Union countries or United States of America. Times42 will disclose personally identifiable information without your permission when required by law, or in good faith belief that such action is necessary to investigate or protect against harmful activities to Times42 guests, visitors, associates, or property, or to others. Laws related to personal identifiable information vary by country.
For example, personally identifiable information collected in the European Union and its Member States is subject to the EU Directives concerning personal data, privacy and electronic communications, including but not limited to Directive 2002/58/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 12 July 2002 concerning the processing of personal data and the protection of privacy in the electronic communications sector and Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24 October 1995 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data and the subsequent legislation adopted in the EU Member States. Another example, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) was passed by the U.S. Congress in November 1998. COPPA provides parents with specific rights regarding their children's privacy. For additional information and resources on COPPA, please visit the Federal Trade Commission website at http://www.ftc.gov/. Any products or services provided by Times42 are not directed at children under 13 years of age and, therefore, COPPA does not apply directly. However, we recognize that children under the age of 13 may access our services without Times42 's consent. The collection of this information is covered above. Parents or Legal Guardians may request from us to review, delete or stop the collection of the personally identifiable information of their child. You may do so emailing us at info@times42.com. Times42 may be required by law enforcement or judicial authorities to provide personally identifiable information to appropriate governmental authorities. If requested by law enforcement or judicial authorities, we will provide this information upon receipt of the appropriate documentation. Times42 may also provide information to law enforcement to protect its property and the health and safety of individuals as permitted by statute.
