Upickem respects the privacy of
users on the Internet and has developed this privacy policy to protect user
privacy on its Web sites. The purpose of this policy is to explain the types of
information Upickem obtains about the users of the Upickem web site owned and
operated by Upickem, how the information is obtained, how it is
used, how it may be disclosed to others, and how users can restrict its use or
disclosure.
This site is operated in part by one or more
licensees of Upickem, who in turn, license and maintain the Upickem service
offered on this site. Upickem is
responsible for all collection of information.
If End User signs up for the Upickem Service through a licensee of
Upickem, Upickem and such licensee shall co-own any End User Registration Information
and content provided by End User. This
Privacy Policy shall apply to both Upickem and such licensee.
Online privacy concerns focus on the protection of
"personally identifiable" information which an individual or customer
reasonable expects to be kept private. As the term suggests, "personally
identifiable" information is information that can be associated with a
specific individual or entity.
The only personally identifiable
information Upickem obtains about individual users through our web sites is
information supplied voluntarily by the user. Users interacting with our sites
may provide Upickem with name, address, telephone number, e-mail address,
domain name or URL or other personally identifiable information that Upickem
may use for its own business purposes. Upickem will collect and use this
information for the ability to provide and change service, to anticipate and
resolve problems with your service, for billing purposes, or to create or
inform you of products and services that better meet your needs.
Upickem does collect some non-personally
identifiable generic information about our users as a means of measuring the
effectiveness of our web sites. Upickem servers identify certain user
information in the normal course of operation, but such information does not
reveal a user's personal identity. We collect this information only in the
aggregate and use it to evaluate and improve our web sites. The following are
examples of non-personally identifiable generic information:
IP Addresses: An IP address is a number that is
assigned to a user's computer whenever that user is using the World Wide Web.
Web site servers must be able to identify individual computers by their IP
address. Upickem collects IP addresses for the purposes of system
administration security and to report aggregate usage information. Upickem
does not link IP addresses to any personally identifiable information.
Computer settings: Settings, technical and other
information from your computer, such as your operating system, browser version,
connectivity, various communication parameters and other information related to
the operation and interaction of Upickem web sites may be collected by Upickem.
Except as otherwise provided in this policy, Upickem will use such information
solely in order to provide technically appropriate formatting of information
provided by Upickem and access to the Upickem web site owned and operated by
Upickem, Inc. The collection of this information will not include any
personally identifiable information about you or any individual user.
Cookies are pieces of information that are used for
record keeping purposes. Cookies allow Upickem to save certain information
about a user, such as individual preferences, in order to facilitate and
enhance the user's future activity on the Upickem web site. Upickem will not
use cookies to retrieve information from a user's computer that was not
originally sent in a cookie. Except as otherwise provided in this policy, Upickem
shall not use information transferred through cookies for any promotional or
marketing purposes, and shall not share that information with any third parties
for any reason. A user may refuse cookies by turning off that feature on their
web browser.
Upickem will not sell, trade, or
disclose to third parties any personally identifiable information derived from
registration for or use of a Upickem service without the consent of the
customer, except as required by subpoena, search warrant, or court order
pursuant to applicable law, regulation or legal process or in the case of
imminent physical harm to the customer or others.
Any user who does not wish to receive further contacts from Upickem and our partners may send e-mail to: privacy at upickem.net.
Upickem will protect the
confidentiality of its customer's personally identifiable information to the
fullest extent possible and consistent with law and legitimate interests of Upickem,
its employees and other customers of Upickem. To protect the loss, misuse, and
alteration of such information, Upickem has appropriate physical, electronic
and management procedures in place.

Upickem is not responsible for
the content or the privacy practices of non-Upickem web sites, including web
sites reached through a link on a Upickem web site. Other web sites may have
different privacy policies, or no policy. Users should review the privacy
policies of any web site before providing personal information.
