PRIVACY POLICY

TheCosView.com (TCV) takes very seriously the private nature of your personal information. This Privacy Policy describes how we treat the information we collect when you visit our website and/or register as a member.

PERSONAL INFORMATION

In order to supply you with you with a TCV member account, we need your e-mail address. We may also use this email address to send you our newsletter. So that we may provide you with additional services, we may also request your name, geographical coordinates, and telephone number. TCV does not collect any other personal information that you do not expressly provide. TCV will never sell, rent, or share your personal information, including your e-mail address, with any third parties for marketing purposes without your express permission. TCV may share your personal information for the purpose of delivering e-mail to you or as required by law.

NON-PERSONAL INFORMATION

TCV may also request non-personally identifiable information, such as annual income, buying preferences, or age, also known as demographic and profile data. Though this information is optional, we may use it to improve our site and/or tailor your experience on our site, showing you content that we think you might be interested in and displaying content according to your preferences. We may also share this information with others, such as advertisers interested in advertising with TCV, in aggregate, anonymous form, which means that the information will not contain any personally identifiable information about you or any other person.

USAGE INFORMATION

In addition to collecting personal and non-personal information, TCV may also collect non-personal, aggregated information about members’ use of TCV e-mails and the website. This information is not personally identifiable and will be used only to find out how subscribers use our service and site. For example, this information will tell us how much time users spend on the TCV site, from which sites subscribers came, and to what sites subscribers go. The collection of this information allows us to, among other things, prepare for traffic load demands and to efficiently deliver your messages.

OPT-OUT

If we ever send you information by e-mail concerning new products or services that you did not expressly request, we will provide you with an opt-out option that will discontinue those email communications.

3RD PARTY ADVERTISING

Some of the ads appearing on this Website are delivered to you by Google AdSense, our Web advertising provider. Information about your visit to their site, such as the number of times you have viewed an ad (but not your name, address, or other personal information), is used to serve ads to you.

TRACKING

Like most sites, TCV makes use of browser cookies. Cookies are small text files placed on your computer’s hard disk by our server. They allow us to quickly check your status as a subscriber and facilitate access to your preferences. TCV will never use cookies to retrieve information from a computer that is unrelated to our site or services. TCV also uses transparent GIF images. We use these images to track the e-mails that we send out.

3RD PARTY COOKIES

In the course of serving advertisements to this site, our third-party advertisers may place or recognize a unique cookie on your browser.

LINKS TO OTHER SITES

As part of the service, TCV may create links allowing you to access third-party sites. DailyCandy is not responsible for the content that appears on these sites and does not endorse these sites. Please consult the sites’ individual privacy policies in order to determine how they treat user information.
