The Way Solutionbay.com Uses Information


If you submit personally identifiable information to us through the Solutionbay.com Sites, then we use your personal information to operate, maintain, and provide to you the features and functionality of the Solutionbay.com Sites.

Any personal information or other content that you voluntarily disclose online (on solutions, in comments etc.) becomes publicly available and can be collected and used by others. Your account username (not your email address) is displayed to other Users when you participate at Solutionbay.com. Any content that you submit to the Solutionbay.com Sites may be redistributed through the internet and other media topics, and may be viewed by the general public.

We do not use your email address or other personally identifiable information to send commercial or marketing messages without your consent or except as part of a specific program or feature for which you will have the ability to opt-in or opt-out. We may, however, use your email address without further consent for non-marketing or administrative purposes (such as notifying you of major Solutionbay.com Site changes or for customer service purposes).

We use both your personally identifiable information and certain non-personally-identifiable information (such as anonymous User usage data, cookies, IP addresses, browser type, clickstream data, etc.) to improve the quality and design of the Solutionbay.com Sites and to create new features, promotions, functionality, and services by storing, tracking, and analyzing User preferences and trends.

We use cookies, clear gifs, and log file information to: (a) remember information so that you will not have to re-enter it during your visit or the next time you visit the Solutionbay.com Sites; (b) provide custom, personalized content and information; (c) monitor aggregate metrics such as total number of visitors, pages viewed, etc.; and (e) track your entries, submissions, and status in promotions, sweepstakes, and contests.

We do not share your personally identifiable information with any third-party companies.

We do share non-personally-identifiable information (such as anonymous User usage data, referring / exit pages and URLs, platform types, number of clicks, etc.) with interested third-parties to assist them in understanding the usage patterns for certain content, services, advertisements, promotions, and/or functionality on the Solutionbay.com Sites.

We may release personally identifiable information and/or non-personally-identifiable information if required to do so by law, or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with laws or respond to a court order, subpoena, or search warrant.

Solutionbay.com also reserves the right to disclose personally identifiable information and/or non-personally-identifiable information that Solutionbay.com believes, in good faith, is appropriate or necessary to enforce our Terms of Use, take precautions against liability, to investigate and defend itself against any third-party claims or allegations, to assist government enforcement agencies, to protect the security or integrity of our web site, and to protect the rights, property, or personal safety of Solutionbay.com, our Users or others.

Third-party Advertisers


Solutionbay.com may in the future allow other companies, called third-party ad servers or ad networks, to serve advertisements within the Solutionbay.com Sites or within emails sent out by Solutionbay.com services. These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology to send, directly to your browser, the advertisements and links that would appear on the Solutionbay.com Sites and the emails sent by Solutionbay.com sites. They automatically receive your IP address when this happens. They may also use other technologies (such as cookies, JavaScript, or Web Beacons) to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and to personalize the advertising content.

Solutionbay.com does not provide any personally identifiable information to these third-party ad servers or ad networks. However, please note that if an advertiser asks Solutionbay.com to show an advertisement to a certain audience (for example, men ages 18-34) or audience segment (for example, men ages 18-24 who have viewed certain types of content) and you respond to that advertisement, the advertiser or ad-server may conclude that you fit the description of the audience they are trying to reach.

You should consult the respective privacy policies of these third-party ad servers or ad networks. Solutionbay.com's privacy policy does not apply to, and we cannot control the activities of, such other advertisers or web sites.

Currently, Solutionbay.com does not have relationships with any third-party ad servers or ad networks but reserves the right to do so in the future. In the event that Solutionbay.com establishes a relationship with these companies, it will update its Terms of Use and Privacy Policy to reflect that change.

 

Links to Other Sites


Solutionbay.com sites contain links to other sites. Solutionbay.com is not responsible for the privacy policies and/or practices on other sites. When linking to another site a user should read the privacy policy stated on that site. Our privacy policy only governs information collected on Solutionbay.com sites.

 

Our Commitment To Data Security


Solutionbay.com uses commercially reasonable physical, managerial, and technical safeguards to preserve the integrity and security of your personal information. We cannot, however, ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to Solutionbay.com and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission of information, Solutionbay.com makes commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the security of our systems. However, please note that this is not a guarantee that such information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards.

If Solutionbay.com learns of a security systems breach, then we may attempt to notify you electronically so that you can take appropriate protective steps. Solutionbay.com may post a notice on the Solutionbay.com Sites if a security breach occurs. Depending on where you live, you may have a legal right to receive notice of a security breach in writing. To receive a free written notice of a security breach (or to withdraw your consent from receiving electronic notice) you should notify us using our contact form.

For that reason, Solutionbay.com does not knowingly collect or maintain personally identifiable information or non-personally-identifiable information on the Solutionbay.com Sites from persons under 14 years of age, and no part of our website is directed to persons under 14. If you are under 14 years of age, then please do not use or access the Solutionbay.com Sites at any time or in any manner.

In the Event of Merger, Sale, or Bankruptcy


In the event that Solutionbay.com is acquired by or merged with a third party entity, we reserve the right, in any of these circumstances, to transfer or assign the information we have collected from our Users as part of such merger, acquisition, sale, or other change of control. In the event of our bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, or assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the application of laws or equitable principles affecting creditors rights generally, we may not be able to control how your personal information is treated, transferred, or used.
