privacy statement

Overview


Clique is committed to respecting the privacy of our users. We strive to provide a safe, secure user experience. This Privacy Statement sets forth the online data collection and usage policies and practices that apply to all of our Web site. By using a Clique Web site, you consent to the policies and practices described in this Statement.


Your data will be stored and processed in whole or in part in the United States. If you access a Clique Web site outside the United States, your usage of that site constitutes consent to the transfer of your data out of your country and to the United States.


Our sites may contain links to other Web sites over which we have no control. Clique is not responsible for the privacy policies or practices of other Web sites to which you choose to link from a Clique Web site. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of those other Web sites so you can understand how they collect, use and share your information. This Privacy Statement applies solely to the information we collect on a Clique Web site, and does not apply to information we collect in any other fashion.


Collection and Retention of Information


In some areas of our Web sites, Clique requests or may request that you provide personal information, including your name, address, e-mail address, telephone number, contact information, and any other information from which your identity is discernible. In other areas, Clique collects or may collect demographic information that is not unique to you such as your ZIP code, age, preferences, gender, interests and favorites. Sometimes we collect or may collect a combination of the two types of information.


We also gather or may gather certain information about your use of our site, such as what areas you visit and what services you access. Moreover, there is information about your computer hardware and software that is or may be collected by Clique. This information can include without limitation your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times and referring Web site addresses.


Clique may sometimes afford you the opportunity to provide descriptive, cultural, behavioral, preferential and/or life style information about yourself, but it is solely up to you whether you furnish such information. If you do provide such information, you are thereby consenting to the use of that information in accordance with the policies and practices described in this Statement. For example, such information may be used for the purpose of determining your potential interest in receiving email or other communications about particular products or services.


Please remember that if you post any of your personal information in public areas of Clique, such as in online forums or chat rooms, such information may be collected and used by others over whom Clique has no control. We are not responsible for the use made by third parties of information you post or otherwise make available in public areas of Clique.


Since we believe that improving the quality of your life is a life-long process, we retain indefinitely all the information we gather about you in an effort to make your repeat use with us more efficient, practical, and relevant. Of course, you can correct or update your myclique account profile and resume at any time.


Use of Information by Clique


We use the information we gather on a Clique Web site, whether personal, demographic, collective or technical, for the purpose of operating and improving the Clique Web site, fostering a positive user experience, and delivering the products and services that we offer.


We may also use the information we gather to inform you of other products or services available from Clique or its affiliated companies or to contact you about your opinion of current products and services or potential new products and services that may be offered.


We may use your contact information in order to send you e-mail or other communications regarding updates at the Clique site, such as new Clique opportunities and additional listings which may be of interest to you. The nature and frequency of these messages will vary depending upon the information we have about you.


We have an area where you can submit feedback. Any feedback you submit in this area becomes our property, and we can use such feedback for marketing purposes or contact you for further information.


Disclosure of Information to Others


We do not disclose to third parties your personal information, combined personal and demographic information or information about your use of a Clique Web site (such as the areas you visit or the services you access), except as set forth in the following four subparagraphs.


  1. We may disclose such information to third parties if you consent to such disclosure. For example, if you indicate that you would like to receive information about the products or services of third parties at the time you register for a myclique account, we may supply your contact information to third parties such as hotels, restaurants, shops or other small businesses, aggregators, marketers or others for the purpose of sending you e-mail or otherwise communicating with you. We may use data we have about you (such as the interests and preferences you have expressed) to determine whether you might be interested in the products or services of a particular third-party
  2. We may disclose such information to companies and individuals we employ to perform functions on our behalf. Examples may include hosting our Web servers, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. These companies and individuals will have access to your personal information as necessary to perform their functions, but they may not share that information with any other third party.
  3. We may disclose such information if legally required to do so, if requested to do so by a governmental entity or if we believe in good faith that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to legal requirements or comply with legal process; (b) protect the rights or property of Clique or its affiliated companies; (c) prevent a crime or protect national security; or (d) protect the personal safety of users or the public.
  4. We may disclose and transfer such information to a third party who acquires all or a substantial portion of Clique 's business, whether such acquisition is by way of merger, consolidation or purchase of all or a substantial portion of our assets. In addition, in the event Clique becomes the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding, whether voluntary or involuntary, Clique or its trustee in bankruptcy may sell, license or otherwise dispose of such information in a transaction approved by the bankruptcy court.


Clique may also share aggregated anonymous information about visitors to each of its Web sites with its clients, partners and other third parties so that they may understand the kinds of visitors to Clique 's site and how those visitors use the site.
