Effective Date: March 18, 2009

Welcome to BestSelector.com. The BestSelector.com online service (“Service”) and its creator and operator, PrismaStar Software (“Service Provider”), are committed to respecting your privacy. While we collect some information from you, it is our policy to ensure that all of your personal information remains private and secure. As part of our privacy policy, we: (i) provide a privacy notice and/or a link to this Privacy Policy (“Policy”) statement on all pages that ask for personal information; and (ii) will not sell or release personal identifying information about you to any other party without first notifying you.

This Policy may be modified occasionally, so please check back often to review the most recent version (the date of the most recent version will appear at the top of this statement). In addition to reviewing this Policy, please read our Terms and Conditions of Use (“Terms”). Your use of this Service constitutes agreement to the Terms and this Policy.

1. WHAT INFORMATION IS COLLECTED

When you visit the Service, basic information is collected that does not identify individual users. This information includes, but is not limited to, which and how often pages are visited, the types of ads viewed, content submitted, your IP address, the type of browser you use, and feedback from visitors. We then aggregate this information with volumes of other pieces of information to improve the Service for you.

The Service may assign a unique random number or “cookie” to your browser. These cookies provide a secure way for the Service to verify your identity, personalize your experience on the Service, speed navigation, keep track of items, and make your visit to the Service more convenient and enjoyable. You privacy and security are not compromised when you accept a cookie from the Service and we don’t use cookies to collect specific personal information. We also use cookies to remember information you gave us so you don’t have to re-enter that data every time you visit our site. By showing how and when users use the Service, cookies also help the Service Provider to see which areas are popular and which are not. Many improvements and updates to the Service are based on data such as the total number of visitors and pages viewed.

Some of our advertisers occasionally serve you cookies as well. The Service does not have control over cookies placed by advertisers. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. If you prefer, you can set your browser to refuse all cookies or only cookies from third parties, but that may disrupt some of the functions of the Service.

2. HOW INFORMATION IS USED

Service Provider uses the information you supply to the Service to provide you with the services you have requested and to enhance service offerings. The Service may also use the information you provide to communicate with you about new features or improvements to the Service. Information that is not personally identifiable is used to determine how many people use the Service. For example, this data gives the Service information including how often users visit the Service, which areas of the Service are most popular, and how often users click on advertisements. Analyzing this data allows for performance and content improvements. Using IP addresses allows the Service to determine the general physical location of users and may use this information to better target advertising to users.

3. WHOM INFORMATION IS SHARED WITH

Service Provider does not sell users’ e-mail addresses. Service Provider may allow access to our database by third parties that provide the Service with services, such as data provision or technical maintenance, but only for the purpose of and to the extent necessary to provide those services. Non-personal identifying information may also be provided to advertisers, so that they can serve ads to you that meet your needs or match your interests. While Service Provider will seek to require such third parties to follow appropriate privacy policies and will not authorize them to use this information except for the express purpose for which it is provided, Service Provider does not bear any responsibility for any actions or policies of third parties. There may also be occasion when Service Provider is legally required to provide access to its database in order to cooperate with police investigations or other legal proceedings. In those instances, the information is provided only for that purpose.

While your individual information is protected as outlined above, Service Provider reserves the right to use, transfer, sell, and share aggregated, anonymous data about users of the Service as a group for any business purpose, such as analyzing usage trends and seeking compatible advertisers and partners.
