Privacy Statement
AreaConnect respects your privacy. Our purpose in collecting information from you is to help us provide
you with better service, such as notifications about special offers and promotions. We will not willfully
disclose any individually identifiable information about you to any third party without first receiving your
permission, as explained in this privacy statement. Furthermore, we do not specifically target children
under the age of 13, nor do we knowingly collect, without parental consent, individually identifiable
information from such children.
What Information Do We Collect?
We may request that an entity applying for an account with AreaConnect provide us with certain personal
information (such as its name, email address, etc.) relevant to our provision of the various services offered
on our site. We do not collect any personal information other than that which is specifically and knowingly
provided to us. When we request information, we explain how it may be used and give you an opportunity to
request that the information not be used for those purposes. We also give you an opportunity to opt out of
future communications from us.
Cookies
Like most sites, for account management purposes, AreaConnect uses cookies. Cookies are data files stored on
your computer that identify you as a unique user. Cookies enable us to track user trends, preferences and patterns
to better understand our user base and to improve the quality of our service. Most browsers permit users to refuse
cookies or to be notified before a cookie is accepted. You can visit our site without using cookies.
Links to Other Sites
The AreaConnect website contains links to other sites. Those sites may send their own cookies to users, collect
data, or solicit personal information. We are not responsible or liable for the privacy practices or content of
such sites since we do not control them.
With Whom Do We Share Information?
AreaConnect may share non-personal and non-personally identifiable information about our users with advertisers,
business partners, sponsors, and other third parties. However, we only divulge aggregate information, such as how
often the average user visits our website. AreaConnect may partner with other parties in connection with the various
services offered on our site, such as credit card processors or email delivery services. In such instances, we may
share limited personal information that is necessary for the third-party to provide its services. These companies
are prohibited from using this information for any other purpose.
AreaConnect may also provide personal information when disclosure may be required by law (e.g., subpoenas, search
warrants and court orders). We may also determine that such action is reasonably necessary to protect a party's
rights, property, or well-being. This action may include exchanging information with other companies and organizations
for the purposes of fraud detection or protection, or in other situations involving suspicious or illegal activities.
Business Transfers
In the event of a transfer of ownership of AreaConnect, such as acquisition by or merger with another company, a
user's personal information will, in most instances, be part of the assets transferred.
Consent and Changes to this Privacy Statement
By using our site or services, you consent to the collection and use of your information as we have outlined in
this privacy statement and consent to our Terms of Use. Additionally, if you are using any of our services, we may
also collect and use information in accordance with such service's applicable Terms and Conditions. AreaConnect may
decide to change this privacy statement from time to time. If and when we do, we will post the changes on this page
so that you are always aware of the information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it.
Who Can I Ask If I Have Additional Questions?
