Privacy Policy
Privacy Intent Declaration Policy
We have created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy and security. This Privacy Policy describes how Fox Forge collect information from all end users of Fox Forge's Internet and web hosting services (the "Services")-those who access some of our Services but do not have accounts ("Visitors") as well as those who pay a service fee to subscribe to the Service ("Members")-what we do with the information we collect, and the choices Visitors and Members have concerning the collection and use of such information. Fox Forge requests that you read this Privacy Policy carefully.
Personal Information Fox Forge Collects and How It Is Used
- Introduction
Fox Forge collects information in different ways from Visitors and Members who access the various parts of our Services and the network of Web sites accessible through our Service. We use this information primarily to provide a customized experience as you use our Services and, generally, do not share this information with third parties. However, we may disclose personal information collected if we have received your permission beforehand or in very special circumstances, such as when we believe that such disclosure is required by law or other special cases described below.
- Registration
Members are asked to provide certain personal information when they sign up for our Services including name, address, telephone number and billing information (such as a credit card number). The personal information collected from Members during the registration process is used to manage each Member's account (such as for billing purposes). This information is not shared with third parties, unless specifically stated otherwise or in special circumstances. However, in instances where Fox Forge and a partner jointly promote the Services, Fox Forge may provide the partner certain personal information, such as the name, address, and username of persons who subscribed to the Services as a result of the joint promotion for the sole purpose of allowing us and the partner to assess the results of the promotion. In this instance, personal information may not be used by the partner for any other purpose. Fox Forge may also generate non-identifying and aggregate profiles from personal information Members provide during registration (such as the total number, but not the names, of Members). As explained in more detail below, we may use this aggregated and non-identifying information to sell advertisements that appear on the Services.
- Fox Forge Partners and Sponsors
Some Fox Forge products and services are offered to Visitors and Members in conjunction with a non-affiliated partner. To provide Visitors and Members some of these products and services, the partner may need to collect and maintain personal information. Fox Forge will share nonidentifying and aggregate information (except as described above), but not personal information, with such partners in order to administer the co-branded products or services offered.
- Online Advertisements
From time to time, Fox Forge may display online advertisements. We share aggregated and non-identifying information about our Visitors and Members collected through the registration process as well as through online surveys and promotions with these advertisers. Additionally, in some instances, we use this aggregated and non-identifying information to deliver tailored advertisements. For instance, an advertiser tells us the audience they want to reach (for example, males between 25 and 55 years of age) and provides us an advertisement tailored to the audience. Based upon the aggregated and non-identifying information we have collected, we may then display the advertisement to the intended audience. Fox Forge does not share personal information about its Visitors or Members with these advertisers.
- Responses to Email Inquiries
When Visitors or Members send email inquiries to Fox Forge, the return email address is used to answer the email inquiry we receive. Fox Forge does not use the return email address for any other purpose and does not share the return email address with any third party.
- Voluntary Customer Surveys
We may periodically conduct both business and individual customer surveys. We encourage our customers to participate in these surveys because they provide us with important information that helps us to improve the types of services we offer and how we provide them to you. Your personal information and responses will remain strictly confidential, even if the survey is conducted by a third party. Participation in our customer surveys is voluntary.
We take the information we receive from individuals responding to our Customer Surveys and combine (or aggregate) it with the responses of other Fox Forge customers to create broader, generic responses to the survey questions (such as gender, age, residence, hobbies, education, employment, industry sector, or other demographic information). We then use the aggregated information to improve the quality of our services to you, and to develop new services and products. This aggregated, non-personally identifying information may be shared with third parties.
- Special Cases
It is Fox Forge's policy not to use or share the personal information about Visitors of Members in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses. However, Fox Forge may disclose personal information about Visitors or Members, or information regarding your use of the Services or Web sites accessible through our Services, for any reason if, in our sole discretion, we believe that it is reasonable to do so, including: to satisfy laws, such as the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, regulations, or governmental or legal requests for such information; to disclose information that is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our Terms of Service or other user policies; to operate the Services properly; or to protect Fox Forge and our Members.
- "Cookies" and How Fox Forge Uses Them
A "cookie" is a small data file that can be placed on your hard drive when you visit certain Web sites. Fox Forge may use cookies to collect, store, and sometimes track information for statistical purposes to improve the products and services we provide and to manage our telecommunications networks. If you are a Member, we will use a cookie to save your settings and to provide customizable and personalized services. These cookies do not enable third parties to access any of your customer information.
Additionally, be aware that if you visit non-Fox Forge websites where you are prompted to log in or that are customizable, you may be required to accept cookies.
Advertisers and partners may also use their own cookies. We do not control use of these cookies and expressly disclaim any responsibility for information collected through them.
- Under Age Children and Young Adults
Fox Forge recommends that children ask a parent for permission before sending personal information to Fox Forge, or to anyone else online. Fox Forge requires that all under aged members have a signed internet document, given for our records, stating expressed parental permissions to access our site, which includes parental ID verification of an in-state License and a phone number. No user under the age of 13 (Thirteen) may access this site. If any account holder is found to be under the age of 13 (Thirteen), or is found to have supplied falsified information, the account will be terminated immediately. Parents will be held solely responsible for the actions of their children accessing the internet and hereby indemnify Fox Forge and all of it's affiliates of any and all legal responsibility.
- Public Forums
Please remember that any information you may disclose in public areas of our websites or the Internet, becomes public information. You should exercise caution when deciding to disclose personal information in these public areas. You hereby indemnify Fox Forge and it's affiliates of legal responsibility for any personally released information by you or any private user. Learn responsibility.
- Fox Forge's Commitment to Data Security
Services and websites we sponsor or host have security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control. While we make every effort to ensure the integrity and security of our network and systems, we cannot guarantee that our security measures will prevent third-party "hackers" from illegally obtaining this information.
