We do not give, sell, rent, share, or trade any identifiable personal information regarding our members to any third party, with the exception of third-party contractors and service providers who work with AGLOCO to provide the Viewbar and other services, and who are strictly prohibited from later use of the information that they may have access to. We will disclose personal information to local, state, or federal law enforcement officials when we believe in good faith that the law requires it.

This Privacy Policy provides both members of the AGLOCO™ service and visitors to the AGLOCO.com website with information about what information we collect, to what uses that information is put, and to whom that information may be given.  If you become a member of AGLOCO™, the membership agreement encompasses the provisions that are explained by this document. If you are only a visitor to our website, this Privacy Policy is our promise to you about how information about your visit will be handled.

This document is a "work in progress," insofar as certain portions may be updated from time to time as the programs and services we offer to our members change. However the principles upon which this document is based will not change, nor will our fundamental commitment to protecting the privacy of our members. We also welcome your continuing input into this policy. Please give us your feedback at privacy@AGLOCO.com.

AGLOCO™'s Privacy Policy and our information practices are based upon the eight principles of Fair Information Practices first issued by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development in 1980. These guidelines continue to be the touchstone of all modern privacy laws and regulations, and the concepts set forth in them remain at the heart of privacy protection principles that guide all responsible businesses today. More information about the OECD's “Guidelines on the Protection of Privacy and Transborder Flows of Personal Data” may be found by clicking here.

Collection Limitation Principle

AGLOCO.com adheres to the principle that the collection of personal information should be limited to that obtained through fair and lawful means and only with the knowledge and consent of the data subject.

How we deliver: AGLOCO™ makes very clear our policies regarding our data gathering processes and seeks consent before obtaining personally identifiable data from the individual.

Information We Collect from Visitors

For visitors to our website, we gather only aggregate, non-personally identifying data about your visit to our website. If you visit AGLOCO™'s website (whether you are using AGLOCO™'s Viewbar™ software or not), AGLOCO™'s web servers log a number of basic pieces of information, including the following:

• The URL (address) of the page(s) requested;
• The time and date of the request(s) and the duration of your visit;
• The "User Agent" (the make and model of the web browser being used, including the name and version of the operating system upon which that web browser is running);
• The "Referrer" (the address of the site whose link you followed to get to our website);
• The IP address and domain name of the computer to which we are sending pages for display by your web browser.

For information about why we gather and how we use this information, see the Purpose Specification and Use Limitation sections of this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect from Members

In our online registration form for new members of the service, we require you to provide us with your full name, full mailing address, email address and a password. In addition, we require your gender, birth date, and a password question with its corresponding answer, so that we may identify you if you ever lose your password.

Certain information such as your name, address, email address, and birth date constitute "Personal Data" because that information can be used to directly or indirectly identify you. This information is collected and used according to the terms of this Privacy Policy. In the future, we may offer additional services that will have their own usage agreements and/or privacy policies. At the time those services are offered, you will be given an opportunity to review and accept those documents.

For information about why we gather and how we use this information, see the Purpose Specification and Use Limitation sections of this Privacy Policy.

Other Data We May Request from Members

We may ask you for personal information at other times, including, but not limited to, when you enter a sweepstakes, contest or promotion sponsored by AGLOCO.com and/or when you report a problem with any of our services. Any data collected at those times will be used in accordance with this policy, unless otherwise explicitly stated at the time of collection. Many of those sweepstakes, contests, or promotions will have terms of service agreements associated with them and those agreements may differ from provisions of this policy. Therefore, it is important that you read and understand those agreements as the nature of those offerings may require different data privacy provisions that may supercede this Privacy Policy.

Message Boards and Messaging Services

If you utilize a message board or other messaging service operated by AGLOCO™, your use of those services is governed by the Terms of Service agreement associated with those services. If you choose to publish your e-mail address or publish other personal data, you do so at your own risk. If you have concerns regarding privacy issues related to the message boards or messaging services, or wish to have a message removed from the message boards for privacy-related reasons, you should contact support@AGLOCO.com for assistance.

The process we use to serve advertisements and to enable certain personalized experiences, including the storage of certain user preferences on the AGLOCO™ website may involve the use of persistent cookies.

Cookies received in this way are monitored by our ad-serving company, and we do not have access to this information. However, we have contractual arrangements that restrict our partners, including the ad-serving company, from using these cookies for anything other than fulfilling their service to AGLOCO.com. We may also use cookies to deliver content specific to your interests, and to save your password so you don't have to re-enter it each time you connect to the Internet.

You are always free to decline our cookies, if your browser permits, or to ask your browser to indicate when a cookie is being sent. You can also delete cookie files from your computer at your discretion. Note that if you decline our cookies or ask for notification each time a cookie is being sent, your Viewbar™ may not function properly and we may have difficulty rendering service to you.

A Special Note About Children

Prior to any new data usage that may be beyond the scope of previously disclosed purposes, we will disclose such new uses and obtain the data subject's permission.

Visitors to Our website

We use information gathered from visitors to our website in an aggregate form to get a better understanding of where our visitors come from and to help us better design and organize our website.   Although an IP address doesn't necessarily identify a visitor personally, it can sometimes suggest a connection to a particular individual or their computer, therefore we do not disclose the information contained in those logs to third parties unless compelled to by law. Information contained in our web server logs may be used in the course of fraud investigations.

It is AGLOCO™'s policy to comply with reasonable warrants issued by courts to law enforcement officials. However, our policy is to oppose attempts to seek release of member information by private parties through the use of civil subpoenas. When served with a civil subpoena, our policy is to notify the specified member of the request prior to disclosure of any personal data, and to require the requesting party to seek court review of the appropriateness and sufficiency of the subpoena before we will disclose any of the requested member information.
