INTRODUCTION
Your privacy is essential to us. Here in Crave, we believe that
privacy is a top priority. We know that you care how information about
you is used and shared. Thus, we provide this Privacy Policy to
summarize our procedures and practices as regards to information
collection and use. This will serve you as a guide in making an
intelligent decision in sharing your information with us. By visiting Crave, you agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy and hereby
accept the procedures and practices stated in this herein.
COVERAGE
This Privacy Policy applies only within this website and other pages
where this policy appears. This would describe and explain how we take
care and handle your personal information you shared to us. Our
subsidiaries' and joint ventures' privacy policies are similar to those
described herein. We make every effort to provide a consistent set of
privacy practices throughout the world market or commerce. By accepting
the Privacy Policy and the User Agreement in registration, you expressly
consent to our collection, storage, use and disclosure of your personal
information as described in this Privacy Policy.
INFORMATION COLLECTION & HOW USE
You can surf and get into our sites without disclosing and revealing
to us any information of who you are. But once you provide us your
personal information, you're no longer an unknown. You hereby then agree
to us to collect such personal information and allow us to transfer and
store all of that information at our server.
We may collect and store the following information:
- all information based on your activities on the sites including but not limited to bidding, buying, selling, item and content you generate or that relates to your account and other information from your interaction with our sites, content, services, and advertising, including computer and connection information, statistics on page views, traffic to and from the sites, ad data, IP address and standard web log information;
- contact numbers, address, email address and sometimes financial information, such as credit card or bank account numbers;
- shipping, billing and other information you provide to purchase or ship an item;
- discussions, chats, dispute resolution, communications through our sites, and communications sent to us;
- Information from other companies, such as demographic and navigation data; and other supplemental information from third parties.
Our very reason in collecting your personal information is to provide
you with the best, safe, smooth, efficient experience. You understand
and agree that we may use your personal information to provide the
services and customer support you request; to resolve disputes, collect
fees, and troubleshoot problems; to prevent potentially prohibited or
illegal activities, and enforce our User Agreement; to customize,
measure and improve our services, content and advertising; to tell you
about our services and those of our corporate family, targeted
marketing, service updates, and promotional offers based on your
communication preferences.
DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION
You agree and allow us for the disclosure of your personal
information to enforce our policies, to respond to legal requirements,
to protect anyone's rights, property, or safety. The aforementioned
information will be disclosed in accordance with applicable laws and
regulations. We may also disclose your information to our business
partners, affiliates and corporate entities whom you have business
transactions.
In an effort to respect your privacy and our ability to keep the
community free from bad actors, we will not otherwise disclose your
personal information to law enforcement, other government officials, or
other third parties without a subpoena, court order or substantially
similar legal procedure, except when we believe in good faith that the
disclosure of information is necessary to prevent imminent physical harm
or financial loss or to report suspected illegal activity.
It should be noted that we don't sell or rent your personal information
to third parties for their marketing purposes without your explicit
consent.
COOKIES
When you visit our site, we send one or more cookies - small files
placed on your hard drive- to your computer or other device that
uniquely identifies your browser. We use cookies to improve the quality
of our service, including for storing user preferences, improving search
results and ad selection, and tracking user trends, such as how people
search. We also use cookies in its advertising services to help
advertisers and publishers serve and manage ads across the web.
INFORMATION SECURITY
We secure your information during transmission by using a system
which encrypts information you input. We reveal only a few digits of
your credit card numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we
transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card
company during order processing. It is important for you to protect
against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Your
information is stored on our server and we use system to protect such
information.
ACCESSING AND UPDATING PERSONAL INFORMATION
When you use our services, we make good faith efforts to provide you
with access to your personal information and either to correct this data
if it is inaccurate or to delete such data at your request if it is not
otherwise required to be retained by law or for legitimate business
purposes. We ask individual users to identify themselves and the
information requested to be accessed, corrected or removed before
processing such requests, and we may decline to process requests that
are unreasonably repetitive or systematic, require disproportionate
technical effort, jeopardize the privacy of others, or would be
extremely impractical, or for which access is not otherwise required. In
any case where we provide information access and correction, we perform
this service free of charge, except if doing so would require a
disproportionate effort. Some of our services have different procedures
to access, correct or delete users' personal information. 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 policies and take other
actions otherwise permitted by law.
THIRD PARTIES
It should be stressed here that the websites of our advertiser and
publisher clients as well as the websites on which we place
advertisements or any third party websites linked to one of our sites
also may collect information from you for various purposes, including,
but not limited to providing advertisements about goods and services
likely to be of greater interest to you. Such information may include
non-personally identifiable information through the use of Cookies and
other technology and any personally identifiable information you may
choose to give in registering and transacting with such website. These
companies typically use a cookie or third party web beacon to collect
this information. Although we choose our business partners and clients
carefully, we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such
third parties. You should check the applicable privacy policies of such
third parties to determine how they handle any information they collect
from you. If you disclose your information to others, whether they are
bidders, buyers or sellers on our sites or other sites throughout the
internet, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the
information you disclose to them. We encourage you to ask questions
before you disclose your personal information to others.
CHANGES AND AMENDMENTS
Be it remembered that this Privacy Policy may change from time to
time. We may amend this Privacy Policy at any time by posting the
amended terms on this site. We will not reduce your rights under this
Privacy Policy without your explicit consent, and we expect most such
changes will be minor. Regardless, we will post any Privacy Policy
changes on this page and, if the changes are significant, we will
provide a more prominent notice. All amended terms automatically take
effect 30 days after they are initially posted on the site.
