Black Professional
Women.com strives to offer its visitors the many advantages
of Customized Websites and to provide an interactive and
personalized experience. We may use Personally Identifiable
Information (your name, e-mail address, street address,
telephone number) subject to the terms of this privacy
policy. We will never sell, barter, or rent your email
address to any unauthorized third party. Period."
How
we gather information from users
How we collect
and store information depends on the page you are visiting,
the activities in which you elect to participate and the
services provided. For example, we may log the name of
your Internet Service Provider or use cookie technology
to recognize you and hold information from your visit.
Among other things, the cookie may store your user name
and password, sparing you from having to re-enter that
information each time you visit, or may control the number
of times you encounter a particular advertisement while
visiting our site. As we adopt additional technology,
we may also gather information through other means. In
certain cases, you can choose not to provide us with information,
for example by setting your browser to refuse to accept
cookies, but if you do you may be unable to access certain
portions of the site or may be asked to re-enter your
user name and password, and we may not be able to customize
the sites features according to your preferences.
What we
do with the information we collect
Like other
Web publishers, we collect information to enhance your
visit and deliver more individualized content and advertising.
We respect your privacy and do not share your information
with anyone.
Aggregated
Information (information that does not personally identify
you) may be used in many ways. For example, we may combine
information about your usage patterns with similar information
obtained from other users to help enhance our site and
services (e.g., to learn which pages are visited most
or what features are most attractive). Aggregated Information
may occasionally be shared with our advertisers and business
partners. Again, this information does not include any
Personally Identifiable Information about you or allow
anyone to identify you individually.
We may use
Personally Identifiable Information collected on Web-Source.net
to communicate with you about your registration and customization
preferences; our Terms of Service and privacy policy;
services and products offered by Black Professional Women.com
and other topics we think you might find of interest.
Personally
Identifiable Information collected by Black Professional
Women.com may also be used for other purposes, including
but not limited to site administration, troubleshooting,
processing of PayPal transactions, administration of sweepstakes
and contests, and other communications with you. Certain
third parties who provide technical support for the operation
of our site (our Web hosting service for example) may
access such information. We will use your information
only as permitted by law. In addition, from time to time
as we continue to develop our business, we may sell, buy,
merge or partner with other companies or businesses. In
such transactions, user information may be among the transferred
assets. We may also disclose your information in response
to a court order, at other times when we believe we are
reasonably required to do so by law, in connection with
the collection of amounts you may owe to us, and/or to
law enforcement authorities whenever we deem it appropriate
or necessary. Please note we may not provide you with
notice prior to disclosure in such cases.
Affiliated
sites, linked sites and advertisements
Black Professional
Women.com expects its partners, advertisers and affiliates
to respect the privacy of our users. Be aware, however,
that third parties, including our partners, advertisers,

applicable privacy policies of those third parties when
providing information on a feature or page operated by
a third party.
While on our
site, our advertisers, promotional partners or other third
parties may use cookies or other technology to attempt
to identify some of your preferences or retrieve information
about you. For example, some of our advertising is served
by third parties and may include cookies that enable the
advertiser to determine whether you have seen a particular
advertisement before. Other features available on our
site may offer services operated by third parties and
may use cookies or other technology to gather information.
Black Professional Women.com does not control the use
of this technology by third parties or the resulting information,
and is not responsible for any actions or policies of
such third parties.
