The Way We Use Personal Information If you submit Personal Information to us through the Site: We will use your Personal Information to improve our services to you, to contact you and to identify and authenticate your access to the Site's services that you are authorized to access. We may transfer your Personal Information within the Site or to the Site's third-party service providers, but only to provide services on the Site or to you, such as processing credit cards or offering customer service through a chat feature. This information may be transferred to other countries around the world. We require that these parties agree to process such information in compliance with our Privacy Policy. We may also use your email address to send product updates, newsletter or news regarding our services, educational materials, announcements, or special offers. We may disclose your Personal Information or any information you submitted via the Site and its services if we have a good faith belief that disclosure of such information is helpful or reasonably necessary to (i) comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request, (ii) enforce our Terms of Service including investigations of potential violations thereof, (iii) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud or security issues, or (iv) protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of ShopPad, Inc., its users, yourself or the public.

The Way We Use Anonymous Information We may use Anonymous Information (as defined below), or disclose it to third party service providers, to improve our services and enhance your experience with the Site and its services. "Anonymous Information" means information which does not enable identification of an individual user, such as aggregated information about the use of our Site and services.

Choice You may choose whether or not to provide Personal Information to the Site. If you choose not to provide the Personal Information we request, you can still visit many parts of the Site, but you may be unable to access certain options, offers, and services that involve our interaction with you.

Access, Accuracy & Retention To the extent that you do provide us with Personal Information, we wish to maintain accurate and complete Personal Information. If you have an Account, you may log-in to your personal profile at any time and add information, delete information or correct any incorrect information we have. We do retain personal information from closed accounts to comply with law, prevent fraud, collect any fees owed, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigations, enforce our User Agreement, and take other actions otherwise permitted by law.

Links to Other Sites Our Site contains links to other sites. Other sites may also reference or link to our Site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such other sites.

Customer Testimonials We post customer testimonials, comments, or reviews on our web site which may contain personally identifiable information.

In the Event of Merger, Sale, or Bankruptcy In the event that a part of our company is acquired by or merged with a third party entity, we reserve the right 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 unlikely 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. In any of the circumstances described in this paragraph, the information will be subject to the privacy policy of the purchaser or assignee.

Security The security of your personal information is important to us. When you enter sensitive information (such as a credit card number), we encrypt the transmission of that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL).

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the Personal Information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
