Ajaxtools.com gathers most of the personal information it collects on its Users during an initial registration process for certain services such as E-mail or newsletters. Although some of the personal identifying information is necessary for Ajaxtools.com to deliver certain of its services, most of the information collected is optional with respect to use of the Ajaxtools.com Network. Accordingly, Users can determine to a large extent what information they wish to submit on a voluntary basis to Ajaxtools.com.

In addition to the initial registration process, Ajaxtools.com occasionally asks Users for personal information at other times, including when they complete optional survey forms or fill out optional contact forms for additional information on particular products and services.

"Cookies"

"Cookies" are small pieces of information that are stored by your web browser software on your computer's hard drive or temporarily in your computer's memory. The use of cookies is now an industry standard, and Users will find them on most major Websites.

Ajaxtools.com sometimes uses cookies to store and track User information. Cookies enable Ajaxtools.com to personalize the viewing experience of a User on the Ajaxtools.com Network. When the User revisits the Ajaxtools.com Network, Ajaxtools.com can recognize the User by the cookie and customize the User's experience at the Ajaxtools.com Network accordingly. For example, Ajaxtools.com uses cookies to recognize User access privileges to the Ajaxtools.com Network, track Site usage and traffic patterns, add advertisements for goods or services of interest, and estimate the Ajaxtools.com Network's audience size.

Although most web browsers are initially set up to accept cookies, if you prefer, a User may decline the placement of a cookie on his or her hard drive by using the appropriate feature(s) of one's web browser software (if available) to delete the cookie. Users should understand, however, that certain areas within the Ajaxtools.com Network may not function properly if the web browser will not accept cookies.

In addition, advertisers that serve ads onto the Ajaxtools.com network may also use their own cookies.

Does Ajaxtools.com disclose personal information to third parties?

Ajaxtools.com discloses publicly available or volunteered technical or reference information of Users in aggregate form only, and not specific individual data, to advertisers and certain other third parties. For example, Ajaxtools.com might tell an advertiser how many males between 20 and 30 years in age visited the Ajaxtools.com Network during a particular period of time.

In addition, Users are required to disclose certain personal information through registration in order to participate in promotions or to request information or a quote from certain third party providers that offer services through the Ajaxtools.com Network. It is necessary for Ajaxtools.com to share this information with one or more appropriate third parties, who may or may not further transfer the information to appropriate vendors, in order to enable the vendors to provide the requested information or quote to the User. Ajaxtools.com does not control these third parties, and there can be no assurance that certain of such parties will not solicit users in the future by E-mail or otherwise. If you do not wish to have your personal data shared with third parties, you may elect not to participate in promotions or use services that require the disclosure of personal data.

Except as stated above, Ajaxtools.com does not disclose or transfer individual personal data records to third parties, unless it reasonably believes it is required to do so by applicable law or valid legal process or to protect its property interests.

Ajaxtools.com deals only with third party advertisers, retailers or service providers offering for sale products or services that Ajaxtools.com believes may be of interest to Users of the Ajaxtools.com Network. Nevertheless, Ajaxtools.com is not and cannot be responsible for the activities or privacy policies of these third parties.

What about external web sites?

To the extent that Users click on hyperlinks or banner advertisements to access third party sites from the Ajaxtools.com Network, Users should understand that these third party sites may collect personally identifiable information about them. Users should further be aware that these third party Websites are not controlled by Ajaxtools.com and, therefore, are not subject to this Privacy Policy.

Can I opt-out of Ajaxtools.com's data collection and/or distribution?

Ajaxtools.com does, however, offer Users of the Ajaxtools.com Network the ability to "opt-out" of having their data collected or used as described in this Privacy Policy. Registration and the provision of any personal information is generally voluntary, unless necessary to provide certain services, such as E-mail. In addition, in the event that a User wishes to opt-out of Ajaxtools.com's personal data use and collection practices after having submitted personal information, The User may send an E-mail to request@Ajaxtools.com to express his or her desire to opt-out. After receipt and processing of the User's opt-out E-mail, Ajaxtools.com will refrain from further distributing the User's personal information to third parties that would otherwise be permissible under this Privacy Policy but for the opt-out. Ajaxtools.com is not responsible for the use by third parties of personal information distributed to them prior to the User opting-out.
