NoLongerLonely Privacy Statement
THIS AGREEMENT WAS LAST UPDATED ON MAY 20, 2004 . NoLongerLonely is firmly committed to privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for this website.
The protection of your privacy being very important, we have adopted the following practices to safeguard the confidentiality of your personal information. We will notify all registered users via email of any change to this Privacy Statement, unless you have opted-out of receiving email from us. From time to time, changes to this Privacy Statement will also be communicated on this site.
What information do you gather automatically from visitors?
We use your IP address (the series of numbers associated with your individual computer) to help us maintain our site and identify problems with our server. Your IP address does not disclose any personally revealing information about you.
We do use cookies to identify traffic that comes through advertising and to facilitate a more user-friendly experience. Cookies are small pieces of information that a web site places on your computer's hard drive so we know it's you when you visit. This helps us to create a personalized experience for you when you visit our site. The use of cookies is a very common practice on the Internet.
What information will you ask me for?
When you register to use the NoLongerLonely service you will be asked for some general identifying information that will enable us to provide you with individualized service. We gather contact information (like your email address), demographic information (like your city of residence or age).
If you choose to create a profile, you will be asked for some personal but non-identifying information to complete your profile (i.e. whether you have dependants, height, body type, race, religion, whether you smoke, etc). This information is not linked in any way to your personally identifiable information, for other members to see. Obviously, if you provide us with a photograph some of your information may become personally identifiable information.
How will this information be used and who has access to it?
If you choose to have them sent to you, we may use your contact information to send you valuable updates and timely notices of promotions and mailbox status reports. Our site provides you with the opportunity to opt-in to receiving different types of communications from us at the point where we request registration information. You may modify this choice at any time by selecting "Change Settings" from the member main page.
Your non-personally identifying demographic information is used to personalize your experience, allow other members to find you through a search, to compose your personal profile - which is associated with a pseudonymous identity you have created. No member will have access to your true identity (name and email address) unless YOU choose to share that information.
How long do you keep the information I've given you?
We keep the information you have given us for as long as you are a member on the site.
Can I change the information I have already given you?
You can always verify or request the removal of the personally identifiable information we have collected and change your registration information by contacting the Webmaster. Email address and password changes are easily accomplished by clicking the "My Account" link on the main page and following to the "Change Password" link.
Do you monitor online behavior?
Our members communicate with each other through instant messages and onsite mail. While we do not, as a rule, moderate or monitor members' private exchanges, we reserve the right to do so if we suspect users of being under 18 or of using our service for the purpose of solicitation or any other violation of our terms of use or Privacy Statement. NoLongerLonely is not able to monitor communication in any of our private chatrooms. Users that use inappropriate language or are offensive to our users in any way will have their membership subject to termination and their future user of the Service blocked.
