Privacy
Policy
We recognize
that privacy is an important issue, so we design and operate our services with
the protection of your privacy in mind. This Privacy Policy outlines the types
of personal information we gather when you use our services, as well as some of
the steps we take to safeguard it.
The following
principles apply to the personally identifying information we ask for and that
you provide. "Personally identifying information" is information that
individually identifies you, such as your name, physical address or email
address. You can find more details about the data we collect on particular
services by clicking the links on the side of this page.
Data
collection
- BitchDatabase.com collects limited
non-personally identifying information your browser makes available
whenever you visit a website. This log information includes your Internet
Protocol address, browser type, browser language, the date and time of
your query and one or more cookies that may uniquely identify your
browser. We use this information to operate, develop and improve our
services.
- Some of our services require you to register
for an account. BitchDatabase.com asks you for some personal information
in order to create an account (typically your name, email address and a
password for your account) and we will use that information to provide the
service. For certain services, such as our advertising programs, we may
request credit card or other payment information which we maintain in
encrypted form on secure servers.
- When we require personally identifying
information, we will inform you about the types of information we collect
and how we use it. We hope this will help you make an informed decision
about sharing your personal information with us.
Cookies
- Upon your first visit to BitchDatabase.com, a
cookie is sent to your computer that uniquely identifies your browser. A
"cookie" is a small file containing a string of characters that
is sent to your computer when you visit a website. We use cookies to
improve the quality of our service and to better understand how people
interact with us. BitchDatabase.com does this by storing user preferences
in cookies and by tracking user trends and patterns of how people use our
service. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can
reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is
being sent. However, some BitchDatabase.com features or services may not
function properly without cookies.

sharing
- We do not rent or sell your personally identifying
information to other companies or individuals, unless we have your

circumstances:

to trusted businesses or persons for the sole purpose of processing
personally identifying information on our behalf. When this is done, it
is subject to agreements that oblige those parties to process such

Policy and appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
- We conclude that we are
required by law or have a good faith belief that access, preservation or
disclosure of such information is reasonably necessary to protect the
rights, property or safety of BitchDatabase.com, its users or the public.
- If you have an account, we may share the
information submitted under your account among all of our services in

described in this Policy or with your consent.

- In the event of a transfer of ownership of
BitchDatabase.com, such as acquisition by or merger with another company,
we will provide notice before any personally identifying information is
transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.
- We may share aggregated information with others
such as how many users clicked on a particular advertisement.

protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration,
disclosure or destruction of data.
