boards and/or news groups that are offered on the Web Site may be
disclosed to and used by third parties.
Use of Information
We use Personal
Information, among other things, to anticipate and resolve problems
with your service, to personalize your service, to investigate
activity that may violate our membership, and to develop and market
products and services that may be of interest to you. In addition,
we use Personal Information to perform the services for which such
data was collected (i.e., if you are a FreelanceMom.com member and submit your
information for the free advertising opportunities, you agree that
we may place your Personal Information in a database searchable by
FreelanceMom.com website visitors and
certain portions may be viewable by anyone viewing the Web Site (as
specified above). We will use Personal Information about you to
deliver information to you that targets your interests. However,
unless you tell us otherwise, we will not use Personal Information
collected from the Web Site to send unsolicited mailings to you.
Third Party Sites
This policy only addresses our activities from our
servers. Other sites (including those third party sites or services
which we co-brand) may have their own policies and practices, which
we do not control, and thus are not addressed by this policy.
Review and Removal of Your Personally
Identifiable Data
If you provide us with Personal
Information during your use of the Web, you can opt out of receiving
email messages from us about products and services that may be of
interest to you at any time by emailing

You can also opt out of having us disclose your
Personal Information to our third party partners that provide
certain features of the service (in which case you will not be able
to access these features). To the extent that such information is
also stored in other databases, we cannot always ensure that such
corrections or deletions will reach the other databases. If you wish
to have information you provided to us online removed from our
records, please provide us with the information as you submitted it
to us, as follows:

Cookies and Other Tracking
Methods
When you view our Web Site, we
might store some information on your computer. Our servers
automatically collect information about which pages you visit, your
browser type, your IP address, your most-recently visited URL, your
preferences, and in the future, we may save your password and other
Personal Information so it doesn't need to be reentered. This
information will be in the form of a "cookie" or similar file.
Cookies are small pieces of information stored on your computer hard
drive, not on our site. Cookies do not spy on you or otherwise
invade your privacy, and they cannot invade your hard drive and
steal information. Rather, they help you navigate a website as
easily as possible. Cookies can help us provide information that is
targeted to your interests, and they allow us to better understand
how you like to use our Web Site, which in turn helps us focus our
resources on features that are the most popular. You are always free
to decline our cookies if your browser permits, but some parts of
our site may not work properly in that case. In some cases we may
track or collect information about your use of our service by the
numeric address assigned to the computer you are using (your IP
address) or by the URLs that you come from or leave to. These
methods allow us to resolve server problems or administer your
service. Generally, we do not associate this information with any
other Personal Information that you have provided to us. We may also
automatically collect and store statistics and other information
about you and your use of the Web Site both on an aggregate,
non-personally identifiable basis and in a manner that may allow us
to associate such information with other Personal Information about
you.
The ads appearing on FreelanceMom.com website may be delivered by a
third party. In the course of delivering an ad to you, the third
party collects certain non-personally identifiable information about
you. This information is used to deliver tailored ads to you.
Security
We use industry-standard
methods to protect your Personal Information from unauthorized
access. Among other techniques, we store such information on a
computer in a secure location, and we restrict the number of
employees internally who can access such data. We are not
responsible if some other third party gains access to the database
or your membership information by evading our security measures or
otherwise obtains access to the database, your Personal Information.
Amendments
Amendments to this policy
will be posted at this URL and will be effective when posted.
Further Information
We cannot ensure that your private communications and
other Personal Information will not be disclosed to third parties.
By way of example, without limiting the foregoing, we may be forced
to disclose information to the government under certain
circumstances, or third parties may unlawfully intercept or access
transmissions or private communications, or we might disclose your
information to other sites as part of offering additional
functionality to you. Additionally, we can (and you authorize us to)
disclose your Personal Information to private entities, law
enforcement or other government officials as we, in our sole
discretion, believe necessary or appropriate. Therefore, we do not
promise that your Personal Information or private communications
will remain private. You acknowledge that this privacy policy is
part of our Membership and you agree to be bound by all of its terms
and conditions.
