Privacy Policy
Your privacy on the internet is important to keepthesweep.com (“Website”, “us”, “we”, “our”). As part of the operation of keepthesweep.com, certain information is gathered about those who visit our Website and/or who register on keepthesweep’s Website (“Members”). Below are explanations regarding the type of information collected, what is done with it, and how to correct or change the information. We generally keep this Privacy Policy posted on our Website and you should review it frequently, as it may change from time to time without notice. Any changes will be effective immediately upon the posting of the revised Privacy Policy. YOU AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THE PRACTICES DESCRIBED IN THIS PRIVACY POLICY, YOU MUST NOT REGISTER AND IMMEDIATELY STOP ACCESSING OUR WEBSITE.
What Information is Collected (1) Required Information: As part of the keepthesweep registration process, our Members are asked to provide their name, e-mail address, postal address, birth-date, credit card information, phone number, gender and password. We use this information to process membership and contact Members about their claims. Consequently, it is very important that you complete the registration page with valid information. As set out in our Terms and Conditions, the name you register with must be yours to collect on taxes. We occasionally send new information about our Company and Website to our Members. (2) Aggregate Non-Identifying Information: Non-Identifying information is any information that does not personally identify you. We obtain non-identifying information about you from information that you provide us, either separately or together with your personally identifiable information. We may track and analyze non-identity and aggregate usage and statistical information from those who visit our Website. This information can include , among other things, IP addresses, the type of browser you are using (e.g., Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox, etc.), the third party website from which your visit originated, the operation system you are using (e.g., Vista, Windows XP, Macintosh OS, etc.), the domain name of your Internet service provider (e.g., America Online, Yahoo, Netzero, etc.), the search terms you use on our Website , the specific web pages you visit, and the duration of your visits. (3) Information From Third Parties: In addition to the information provided by Members, keepthesweep.com may also collect information about Members from third-party sources.
Use of Information (1) E-mail Communications: If you send us email with questions or comments, we may use your personally identifiable information to respond to your questions or comment, and we may save your questions or comments for future reference. For security reasons, we do not recommend that you send non-public personal information, such as passwords, social security numbers, or bank account information, to us by email. However, aside from our reply to such an email, it is not our standard practice to send you email unless you request a particular service or sign up for a feature that involves email communications, it relates to purchases you have made with us, we are sending you information about our services, or you consented to being contacted by email for a particular purpose. You may “opt out” of receiving future commercial email communications from us by clicking the “unsubscribe” link included at the bottom of most emails we send. However, we reserve the right to send you transactional emails such as customer service communications. (2) Transfer of Assets: As we continue to develop our business, we may sell or purchase assets. If another acquires us or all (or substantially all) of our assets, the personally identifiable information and non-identifying information we have about you will be transferred to and used by this acquiring entity, though we will take the reasonable steps to ensure that your preferences are followed. Also, if any bankruptcy or reorganization proceeding is brought by or against us, all such information may be considered an asset of ours and as such may be sold or transferred to third parties. (3) Cookies, etc.: “Cookies” are small text files from a website that are stored on your hard drive. These text files make using our Website more convenient by, among other things, saving your passwords and preferences for you. Cookies themselves do not typically contain any personally identifiable information. We analyze the information derived from these cookies and other technological tools we employ (such as clear gifs/web beacons) and match this information with data provided by you or another party. We may provide our analysis and certain non-personal information to third parties (who may in turn use this information to provide advertisements tailored to your interests), but this will not involve disclosing any of your personally identifiable information. Please note that advertisers that serve advertisements on our Website may also use their own cookies and other technological tools which are subject to the advertiser’s privacy policies, not this Privacy Policy.

Further, we can, and you authorize us to, disclose your Member identification, name, street address, city, state, zip code, country, phone number, email, and company to third party agents or keepthesweep as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringement, piracy or other unlawful activity or activity that expose us to legal liability.
