Privacy Policy
PRIVACY POLICY
We recognize that your privacy is very important and take
it seriously. This Privacy Policy describes Cricmatchupdates policies and
procedures on the collection, use and disclosure of your information when you
use the Cricmatchupdates Service, via the Cricmatchupdates website, your mobile
phone, or through one of Cricmatchupdates applications. We will not use or
share your information with anyone except as described in this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to information we collect by other means
(including offline) or from other sources. Capitalized terms that are not
defined in this Privacy Policy have the meaning given them in our Terms of
Service.
Cricmatchupdates uses information we collect to analyze how
the Service is used, diagnose service or technical problems, maintain security,
personalize content, remember information to help you efficiently access your
account, monitor aggregate metrics such as total number of visitors, traffic, and
demographic patterns, and track User Content and users as necessary to comply
with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and other applicable laws.
USER-PROVIDED
INFORMATION
You provide us information about yourself, such as your
name and e-mail address, if you register for a member account with the Service.
Your name and other information you choose to add to your profile will be
available for public viewing on the Service. You may provide us with your
mobile phone number if you choose to submit questions and receive answers via
text message. We may use your email address to send you Service-related notices
(including any notices required by law, in lieu of communication by postal
mail). You can control receipt of certain Service-related messages on your
Settings page. We may also use your contact information to send you marketing
email messages. If you do not want to receive such messages, you may opt out by
following the instructions in the message. If you correspond with us by email,
we may retain the content of your email messages, your email address and our
responses.
If you use your Facebook, Twitter, or other social
networking site (“SNS”) account information to sign in to Cricmatchupdates, we will collect and store your SNS user ID.
You also provide us information in User Content you post to
the Service. Your questions, answers, and other contributions on the Service,
and metadata about them (such as when you posted them), are publicly viewable
on the Service, along with your name (unless the Service permits you to post
anonymously). This information may be searched by search engines and be
republished elsewhere on the Web in accordance with our Terms of Service.
If you choose to use our invitation service to invite a
friend to the Service, we will ask you for that person’s email address and
automatically send an email invitation. You may also use our contact importer
tool to help you upload your friends’ email addresses so you can find friends
who are already on Cricmatchupdates
or invite friends to the Service. Cricmatchupdates
stores this information to send invitations, to register your friend if your
invitation is accepted, to track the success of our invitation service, and to
identify your friends on Cricmatchupdates.
INFORMATION
COLLECTED AUTOMATICALLY
When you use the Service, we use persistent and session
cookies and other tracking technologies to: (a) store your username and
password; (b) analyze the usage of the Service; (c) customize the Service to
your preferences; and (d) control the advertising displayed by the Service. A
persistent cookie remains on your computer after you close your browser so that
it can be used by your browser on subsequent visits to the Service. Persistent
cookies can be removed by following your web browser’s directions. A session
cookie is temporary and disappears after you close your browser. You can reset
your web browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being
sent. However, some features of the Service may not function properly if the
ability to accept cookies is disabled. You can find more information about our
use of Cookies here.
We may also use other Internet technologies, log files,
clear GIFs, Flash technologies, and other similar technologies, to deliver or
communicate with cookies and track your use of the Service. We also may include
clear GIFs in HTML-based emails sent to our users to determine whether the
message has been opened. As we adopt additional technology, we may also gather
additional information through other methods.
We use these automated technologies to collect and analyze
certain types of information we consider to be non-personal information,
including: (a) information related to the devices you use to access or interact
with the Service, such as: IP addresses, geolocation information, unique device
identifiers and other information about your mobile phone or other mobile
device(s), browser types, browser language; and (b) information related to the
ways in which you interact with the Service, such as: referring and exit pages
and URLs, platform type, the number of clicks, domain names, landing pages,
pages viewed and the order of those pages, the amount of time spent on
particular pages, the date and time you used the Service, and other similar
information. We may also capture other data, such as search criteria and
results.
We may collect different types of information about your
location, including general information (e.g., IP address, zip code) and more
specific information (e.g., GPS-based functionality on mobile devices used to
access the Service), and may use that information to customize the Service with
location-based information and features. If you access the Service through a
mobile device and you do not want your device to provide us with
location-tracking information, you can disable the GPS or other
location-tracking functions on your device, provided your device allows you to
do this.
Cricmatchupdates may allow third parties to
serve advertisements on the Service and use other third parties to help us collect
and analyze information about your use of the service, generate aggregate site
usage statistics and provide content sharing services to support the Service.
These third parties may also use cookies and similar technologies to collect
similar non-personal information about your use of the Service. Cricmatchupdates does not control the
third parties’ use of such technologies and their use is governed by those
parties’ privacy policies. For more information about third-party ad networks
that use these technologies, and to opt-out of their collection of information,
see http://www.networkadvertising.org/managing/opt_out.asp.
HOW WE SHARE YOUR
INFORMATION
PERSONALLY,
IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION
Cricmatchupdates may share your personally
identifiable information with third parties for the purpose of providing the
Service to you or with third parties offering combined services with Cricmatchupdates.
If we do this, such third parties’ use of your information will be bound by
this Privacy Policy. We may store personal information in locations outside the
direct control of Cricmatchupdates (for instance, on servers or databases
co-located with hosting providers).
As we develop our business, we may buy or sell assets or
business offerings. Customer, email, and visitor information is generally one
of the transferred business assets in these types of transactions. We may also
transfer or assign such information in the course of corporate divestitures,
mergers, or dissolution.
We may share or disclose your information with your
consent, such as if you choose to sign on to the Service through a third-party
service. We cannot control third parties’ use of your information.
Cricmatchupdates may disclose your personal information if
required to do so by law or subpoena or if we believe that it is reasonably
necessary to comply with a law, regulation or legal request; to protect the
safety of any person; to address fraud, security or technical issues; or to
protect Cricmatchupdates rights or property.
NON-PERSONALLY
IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION
We may aggregate and/or anonymize information collected
through the Service so that the information does not identify you. We may use
aggregated, anonymized, and other non-personally identifiable information for
any purpose, including for research and marketing purposes, and our use and
disclosure of such information is not subject to any restrictions under this
Privacy Policy.
Cricmatchupdates may allow third-party ad servers or ad
networks to serve advertisements on the Service. These third-party ad servers
or ad networks use technology to send, directly to your browser, the
advertisements and links that appear on Cricmatchupdates. They automatically
receive your IP address when this happens. They may also use other technologies
(such as cookies, JavaScript, or web beacons) to measure the effectiveness of
their advertisements and to personalize the advertising content. Cricmatchupdates
does not provide any personally identifiable information to these third-party
ad servers or ad networks without your consent. However, please note that if an
advertiser asks Cricmatchupdates to show an advertisement to a certain audience
and you respond to that advertisement, the advertiser or ad server may conclude
that you fit the description of the audience they are trying to reach. The Cricmatchupdates
Privacy Policy does not apply to, and we cannot control the activities of,
third-party advertisers. Please consult the respective privacy policies of such
advertisers for more information.
HOW WE PROTECT
YOUR INFORMATION
Cricmatchupdates uses commercially reasonable physical,
managerial, and technical safeguards to preserve the integrity and security of
your personal information. We cannot, however, ensure or warrant the security
of any information you transmit to Cricmatchupdates or guarantee that your
information on the Service may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or
destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial
safeguards.
In the event that personal information is compromised as a
result of a breach of security, Cricmatchupdates will promptly notify those
persons whose personal information has been compromised, in accordance with the
notification procedures set forth in this Privacy Policy, or as otherwise
required by applicable law.
YOUR CHOICES
ABOUT YOUR INFORMATION
You may, of course, decline to submit personally
identifiable information through the Service, in which case Cricmatchupdates
may not be able to provide certain services to you. You may update or correct
your account information and email preferences at any time by logging in to
your account.
CHILDREN’S
PRIVACY
Protecting the privacy of young children is especially important.
Cricmatchupdates does not knowingly collect or solicit personal information
from anyone under the age of 13 or knowingly allow such persons to register
with the Service. If we become aware that we have collected personal
information from a child under age 13 without verification of parental consent,
we take steps to remove that information.
LINKS TO OTHER
WEB SITES
We are not responsible for the practices employed by
websites linked to or from the Service, nor the information or content
contained therein. Please remember that when you use a link to go from the
Service to another website, our Privacy Policy is no longer in effect. Your
browsing and interaction on any other website, including those that have a link
on our website, is subject to that website’s own rules and policies.
CHANGES TO OUR
PRIVACY POLICY
If we change our privacy policies and procedures, we will
post those changes on this page to keep you aware of what information we
collect, how we use it and under what circumstances we may disclose it. Changes
to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
