The purpose of this policy is to give visitors and users of our site all of the information they need about our collection of information and our protections of their personal privacy as they access and navigate through our site.
We urge everyone who comes here to review this policy because its terms are binding once our site is accessed. With that said, here are the terms of the policy.
Information We Collect
There are two types of information that we gather when individuals access our site, when they make use of our content, and set up accounts on the site.
- Anonymous and Aggregate Information
Anytime an individual comes to our site, we collect anonymous information. This includes the browser being used, an IP address, and the navigation activity. We want to see how people come to our site and how long they visit the pages, as well as where and when they leave us. Once we collect this data over time, we can look at where we may need to change, improve, or modify things. We are always looking to improve our visitors’ experiences. No personal information is ever collected.
- Personal Information
When visitors choose to set up an account on our site, they will need to establish a profile. Doing this lets them communicate with other account holders, conduct searches, participate in discussions, join groups and post comments which they can then share with others. His is much along the lines of setting up an account on a social media site.
- Cookies
We also use cookies when visitors arrive. Most are only in play while a visitor is using our site and are discarded once that visitor leaves. We do place what we call a “consistent cookie,” so that users of our site can have their login information stored. Cookies can be disabled at any time, although we cannot guarantee a good experience if this is done.
Posting of Content
Users may post content on their profile pages, and they may share this content with other users. As well, other users who access their profile may share what is posted there.
Users can set their own privacy settings to limit access to their pages, but we do not guarantee that these are fully secure. When a user allows other users to access his/her page, they may post there.
Users can delete anything they have posted or that has been posted by other users. However, they must understand that, if others have accessed it and shared it, that content will be out there and not able to be removed. Users post content and let others users onto their pages at their own risk. The company is not responsible for how others may use posted content.
Users are bound by the Terms and Conditions Policy that is published on our site, and it their responsibility to become aware of the restrictions we have on content. If those restrictions are violated, the user may face suspension, banishment, or, in some cases legal action. If a user sees that another user is in violation of our content restrictions or any other provisions of our Terms and Conditions agreement, then that user is bound to report the abuse to the site administration.
Inviting Others to Join
If users would like to invite a friend or colleague to join the Onlinewritersrating.com site, they must use our invitation service. They will supply us with contact information and we will then present the invitation in the user’s name. When we present an invitation to someone, we do hold on to that contact information and may make additional contact in the future. At any time, that individual may opt out of receiving further emails from us.
Age Requirements for Joining Our Site
Children under the age of 13 may not use or join the OnlineWritersRatng.com site. If we learn of such an occurrence, we will immediately terminate that use/membership and delete all personal information. If such a minor can verify that a parent or guardian has given permission (notarized, in writing, and original copy mailed to us), then that individual may re-join.
Teens Aged 13-18 are free to join our site. However, we do urge them to get parent/guardian permission to do so – it is just good, safe practice.
How We Safeguard Your Information
