Privacy Policy
This privacy policy is applicable to all sites operated by RateAStore.com.
By accessing this site, you agree that you have read and understand the RateAStore.com
privacy statement which describes how we use your personal information, and what options
you have to update or request the deletion or correction of information submitted to us
via www.rateastorecom (Site). If you do not agree
with the terms and conditions of this Statement, please do not use the Site.
RateAStore.com reserves the right to perform statistical analyses of user behavior and
characteristics in order to measure interest in and use of the various areas of the site
and to inform advertisers of such information as well as the number of users that have
been exposed to or clicked on their advertising banners, if present. RateATemp.com will
provide only aggregated data from these analyses to third parties. Also, users should be
aware RateATemp.com may occasionally permit third parties to offer services through a
RateATemp.com site. RateAStore.com is not responsible for any actions or policies of
such third parties and users should check the applicable privacy policy of such party
when providing personally identifiable information.
Additionally, users should be aware that when they voluntarily disclose personally
identifiable information on the bulletin boards or forums of RateATemp.com, such
information, along with any substantive information disclosed in the user's communication,
can be collected and correlated and used by third parties and may result in unsolicited
messages from other posters or third parties. Such activities are not condoned or
endorsed by RateAStore.com, but remain beyond our control.
Users also should be aware that non-personal information and data may be automatically
collected through the standard operation of RateAStore.com's Internet servers or through
the use of "cookies." Users should be aware that RateAStore.com cannot control the use of
cookies or the resulting information by advertisers or third parties hosting data for
RateAStore.com. Most web browsers have a feature that will allow the user to accept or
deny a cookie. The user should be aware, however, that the use of such cookies may be
necessary to provide the user with certain features available on RateATemp.com.
Upon request, RateAStore.com will allow any user to "opt out" of further promotional
contacts at any time. Additionally upon request, RateATemp.com will use reasonable
efforts to allow users to update/correct personal information previously submitted
which the user states is erroneous to the extent such activities will not compromise
privacy or security interests. Also, upon a user's request, RateATemp.com will use
commercially reasonable efforts to functionally delete the user and his or her personal
information from its database; however, it may be impossible to delete a user's
entry without some residual information because of backups and records of deletions.
We do not disclose the identities of ours users unless we are legally required to do so.
If a governmental agency (for example, law enforcement agencies, US Attorneys' offices or
similar governmental agencies) sends us a subpoena, we will comply with it. If we receive
a subpoena by a third party that is not a governmental agency (for example, a subpoena in
connection with civil litigation), we will contact the user whose identity has been
requested using the contact information the user provided during the registration process.
We will wait 10 days after notifying the user before complying with the subpoena, unless
the subpoena requires us to disclose this information before then. If we cannot wait 10
days because of the deadline in the subpoena, we will let the user know the deadline
included in the subpoena when we provide notice that we received it.
The foregoing policies are effective as of January 1, 2004. RateAStore.com reserves the
right to change this policy at any time by notifying users of the existence of a new
privacy statement. This statement and the policies outlined herein are not intended to
and do not create any contractual or other legal rights in or on behalf of any party.
