HOW WE GATHER INFORMATION FROM USERS

PERSONAL INFORMATION

We collect personal information from users of our website, such as when they post comments on stories, subscribe to e-mail, or fill out contact forms. Such information is used to enhance the user’s website experience. In some instances, we may collect “opt-in” information from users to share advertising, promotions and special offers from WITN and/or third parties.

GOOGLE ADWORDS

For marketing and sales purposes, WITN utilizes Google AdWords’ free conversion tracking feature to gauge the effectiveness of our online marketing efforts.

COMPUTER INFORMATION

Some information on Whatsinthename.in is collected actively, such as when using contact forms or becoming a registered forum user. Other information, including “cookie” data, is collected passively, primarily to enhance software functionality and to provide targeting data used by advertisers to provide relevant content to the user.

All web servers track basic information about their visitors. This information includes, but is not limited to, IP addresses, browser details, timestamps and referring pages. None of this information can personally identify specific visitors to this site. The information is tracked for routine administration and maintenance purposes. When necessary, we may link this information with your personal information to enforce compliance with our User Agreement or to protect the rights, safety and/or property of our website, customers or others.

CONTROLLING YOUR PRIVACY

You have the option to change your browser settings to disable cookies if you have privacy concerns. Disabling cookies for all sites is not recommended as it may interfere with your use of some sites. The best option is to disable or enable cookies on a per-site basis. Consult your browser documentation for instructions on how to block cookies and other tracking mechanisms.

HOW WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

We do not sell, share, or rent your personal information to third parties. We will not disclose your personal information to third parties without your permission, except as described in this Privacy Policy.

In general, we use personal information to enhance our users’ website experience, perform administration and technical support, enable the use of certain services and features available on or through the Web Site; create aggregate information about demographics and usage patterns; allow delivery – with your permission – of advertisements describing special offers, products and services that may be of interest to you.

Although we make good-faith efforts to store the information we collect in a secure operating environment that is not available to the public and to work with responsible third parties, we cannot guarantee complete security for your information.

PUBLIC FORUMS

When you contribute to a public area or feature of our website, such as a chat room, live blog, story comments or user forums that we may make available on or through our website, the information that you submit will be made available to the general public and will not be considered personal information for purposes of this Privacy Policy. We urge users not to submit any sensitive information, including your full name, home address, phone number, or other information that would enable other users to locate you or your financial information on these areas of our website. The use of a username that does not disclose your personal identity is highly recommended.

We encourage, but do not require, the submission of personal information to enhance the functionality of certain services on our website, e.g. newsletters, RSS feeds and user forums. In these cases, also, the use of a username that does not disclose your personal identity is highly recommended. WITN will not be held responsible for personal information that you choose to publicly disclose on our website.

LEGALLY COMPELLED DISCLOSURES

We may disclose personal information to government authorities, and to other third parties when compelled to do, but will only do so when required to comply with court orders and subpoenas. We also may disclose personal information when we have reason to believe that someone has committed, or will commit, acts that endanger the safety, rights or property of our business or others.

SECURITY

Whatsinthename.in uses procedures to safeguard the information collected on its website. Although protective measures have been put in place, WITN cannot ensure that the information collected will never be disclosed in a manner inconsistent with this Privacy Policy. No transmission of data over the Internet is guaranteed to be completely secure, and any such transmission made to our website is done at your own risk.

Should you choose to create an account on our website with a username and password, you are responsible for maintaining the strict confidentiality of your account password. You are solely responsible for any access to or use of the website by you or any person or entity using your password, whether or not such access or use has been authorized by you. You agree to immediately notify Whatsinthename.in of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security. WITN will not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this provision. We will have no liability for disclosure of your information due to errors or unauthorized acts of third parties during or after transmission.

In the unlikely event that we believe that the security of your Personal Information in our possession or control may have been compromised, we may seek to notify you of that development. If a notification is appropriate, we would endeavor to do so as promptly as possible under the circumstances, and, to the extent we have your e-mail address, we may notify you by e-mail or by other means as required by law. You consent to our use of e-mail as a means of such notification.
