At
MyServer.org, we intend to give you as much control as possible
over your personal information, including the Registration Data.
We will let each user know how we will use the personal information
derived from each user's access to and use of MyServer.org and/or
the Services.
NOTICE:
MyServer.org will
track the domains from which people visit MyServer.org and
analyze this data for trends and statistics. Subject to the
provisions of this Privacy Policy, different MyServer.org
sites may use accumulated data for different purposes, including
but not limited to marketing analysis, service evaluation
and planning.
MyServer.org contains
links to other websites, whether owned or controlled by MyServer.org
affiliates or unrelated third parties. MyServer.org is not
responsible for the privacy policies and practices of any
linked website.
Currently, MyServer.org
uses personal information as a basis for notifications to
users, "opt-in" emails, and in order to implement
the terms of the Terms of Service governing
the website (the "TOS"). User
names and email addresses (as well as any additional information
that a user may choose to post) are publicly available on
the MyServer.org site, unless a user elects to "opt-out"
of such display of personal information. However, in cases
where users voluntarily and publicly disclose personal information
which may contain Registration Data, or otherwise post personal
information in conjunction with content subject to an open
source license, such personal information necessarily will
be disclosed subject to the terms of the applicable license.
Subject to the foregoing,
MyServer.org may conduct surveys of other studies of its customer
base and usage for marketing and planning purposes. With respect
to information collected from such surveys or studies, and
in the event that responses are to be publicly disclosed,
users will be notified at the time they take the survey and
MyServer.org will disclose only aggregate information regarding
its users and not personal information identifying any specific
individual. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in cases where
surveys allow users to submit written comments, and where
MyServer.org advises users of the possibility of such disclosure
at the time they take the survey, MyServer.org reserves the
right to disclose text information provided by any user through
such a survey, provided that no personal information identifying
that user is disclosed.
CHOICE:
Cookies: MyServer.org
employs "cookies" to provide a user with tailored
information. A "cookie" is an element of data which
a Service or site, when visited by a user, sends to that user's
browser which, in turn, may store that element on the user's
hard drive or memory. MyServer.org uses cookies to better
serve users who use our Services; any cookies sent by MyServer.org
will be marked so that they will only be accessible by websites
subject to this Privacy Policy. However, at his or her option
and at his or her sole expense and responsibility, any user
may block or delete our cookies from his or her hard drive.
However, by disabling cookies, certain site features and functionality
may no longer work properly, or at all.
"Opt-in"
Emails: Users may "opt-in" to receive site notifications,
newsletters or other information via email. Users may remove
themselves from such services at their discretion. Any email
sent to an "opt-in" list will include directions
for how a user may remove him or herself from the list, or
a URL where the user may find such directions.
Other Notification:
In order to implement or enforce the Terms
of Service of the relevant MyServer.org site, MyServer.org
may use personal information to contact users on an individual
basis.
Profile Display: In
some cases, users' personal information may be publicly available
through a user's profile display. In such cases, users have
the option to opt out of publicly displaying their real names.
In cases where site profiles allow users to display optional
information publicly, such entry and display is at the user's
discretion and may be changed at any time by the user.
Email Display: In
some cases, users may have the opportunity to use an MyServer.org
service to send electronic mail to another user or email list.
In such cases, a user's valid email address and real name
will be included with such messages. In order to prevent abuse,
users may not opt-out of such a display, but may choose to
refrain from using said Service to transmit an email message.
General: In cases
where users voluntarily and publicly disclose personal information
which may contain Registration Data or otherwise post personal
information in conjunction with content subject to an open
source license, such personal information necessarily will
be disclosed subject to the terms of the applicable license.
An example of such a disclosure includes, but is not limited
to, a user's disclosure of personal information as part of
a message posted to a public message forum or a publicly-released
software application.
At no time, unless
such disclosure is required by law or a user specifically
authorizes such disclosure, will MyServer.org disclose individual
user personal information that is not publicly available to
unrelated third parties.
Surveys and Resulting
Information: Subject to the foregoing, MyServer.org may conduct
surveys or other studies of its customer base and usage for
marketing and planning purposes. Participation in such surveys
is at the user's option; MyServer.org does not conduct mandatory
surveys.
With respect to information
collected from such surveys or studies, and in the event that
responses are to be publicly disclosed, users will be notified
at the time they take the survey and MyServer.org will disclose
only aggregate information regarding its users and not personal
information identifying any specific individual. Circumstances
under which MyServer.org would publicly disclose such aggregate
information include, but are not limited to, sharing survey
results with the site population, providing data to MyServer.org
advertisers on user preferences and/or demographics, and publicizing
overall usage data in press communications.
Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in cases where surveys allow users to submit written
comments, and where MyServer.org advises users of the possibility
of such disclosure at the time they take the survey, MyServer.org
reserves the right to disclose text information provided by
any user through such a survey, provided that no personal
information identifying that user is disclosed.
ACCESS:
With regard to personal
information, users can view their data on their personal profile
page. When technically feasible, users are permitted to update
their personal information directly through the MyServer.org
service. When such updating service is not technically feasible,
MyServer.org will make reasonable efforts to assist users
in updating their personal information.
SECURITY:
To secure site integrity,
MyServer.org employs measures including but not limited to
security audits, use of encryption tools and software, and
other reasonable security measures and procedures. Internal
access to users' private and nonpublic personal information
is restricted to site administrators and individuals on a
need-to-know basis.
ENFORCEMENT:
In the event that
MyServer.org becomes aware that site security is compromised
or user nonpublic information has been disclosed to unrelated
third parties as a result of external activity, including
but not limited to external security attacks, MyServer.org
shall take reasonable measures which it deems appropriate,
including but not limited to internal investigation and reporting,
and notification to and cooperation with law enforcement authorities.
If MyServer.org becomes
aware that a user's personal information provided to MyServer.org
has been disclosed in a manner not permitted by this Privacy
Policy, MyServer.org shall make reasonable efforts to notify
the affected user, as soon as reasonably possible and as permitted
by law, of what information has been disclosed, to the extent
that MyServer.org knows this information.
UPDATES TO THE
PRIVACY POLICY:
To update the privacy
policy, we will both post the changed version and its effective
date at http://www.MyServer.org/privacy.asp. Concurrently
with any change to the core privacy policy, we will email
notice of the change to known users at least 15 days (or such
shorter or longer time as mandated by law or any judicial
or government body ) in advance.
