Collection
and Use of Information
AppsFarm.com collects both personally identifiable ("Personal Information") and
anonymous information from its Subscribing Organisations and their Members during the
registration process and at other times, such as when Subscribing Organisations or Members
register for a promotion, any services for which a fee may be charged ("Premium
Services") or other service with AppsFarm.com or one of our sponsors, advertisers or
partners, when Subscribing Organisations or Members report a problem or question with our
site or Services, or when Subscribing Organisations or Members respond to one of our
surveys.
AppsFarm.com maintains a database of Subscribing Organisation and Member Personal
Information and other information that is used only for its own internal purposes. The
information we collect and the ways in which we use this information include:
- IP Address: AppsFarm.com uses Members' IP addresses
to help diagnose problems with our server, to administer our Website and Subscribing
Organisations' hosted intranet sites (the "Subscribing Organisation Sites"), and
to provide technical support.
- Contact Information: We use a Subscribing
Organisation's and its Members' names, addresses and other information from the
registration form to send the Subscribing Organisation and its Members information about
our company, the Service Centre, Premium Services and other Services, and to contact the
Subscribing Organisation and its Members when necessary.
- Unique Identifiers: We collect unique identifiers
(such as login ID's and passwords) to verify the Subscribing Organisation's and its
Members' identity and for use as account numbers in our record system.
- Demographic Information: We compile demographic
information and profile data (such as zip code, industry, and organisation size) in order
to customise Subscribing Organisations' and its Members' experiences at our site, to
exhibit content, to develop applications, Premium Services and other services that are
useful to our Subscribing Organisations and Members, to improve our Services and to
display the content according to Subscribing Organisations' and Members' individual
preferences.
- Supplemental Information: We may supplement the
information that a Subscribing Organisation and its Members provide with information
received from third parties. Third party information may include registration information
that such Subscribing Organisation and Members have provided to an AppsFarm.com partner,
content provider or sponsor or advertiser sites and information that the Subscribing
Organisation and Members have provided to Internic or other website registration
organisations.
- Cookies: In order to offer our Subscribing
Organisations and Members our customisable and personalised service and to better respond
to any problems Subscribing Organisations and Members may experience, AppsFarm.com uses
"cookies". Our partners, sponsors and content providers may also use their own
cookies. A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to a Member's browser from a web
server and stored on the computer's hard drive for record-keeping purposes. The
AppsFarm.com cookies do not personally identify Members, but they do identify a Member's
computer. We use a cookie to record Members' preferences only during the time that the
Member's browser is open. We do not store any other information in the cookie, and it
disappears after the Member logs off or closes its browser. If a Member's browser does not
accept cookies, the Member cannot use the Services.
Distribution of
Information
AppsFarm.com does not sell or rent a Subscribing Organisation's or Member's Personal
Information to anyone. We will not release a Subscribing Organisation's or Member's name,
e-mail address or other Personal Information to any other party except with the
Subscribing Organisation's or Member's explicit permission or under special circumstances,
such as those described below. We will not access the information stored on the
Subscribing Organisation Sites (the "Site Information") except at the request of
the Subscribing Organisation or under special circumstances, such as those described
below. If a Subscribing Organisation or Member is asked for Personal Information, the
Subscribing Organisation or Member is providing that Information only to AppsFarm.com,
unless the Subscribing Organisation or Member is specifically notified otherwise. For
example, some of the AppsFarm.com free services and Premium Services are offered in
conjunction with a partner company, sponsor or content provider. In order to provide this
service to Subscribing Organisations and Members, it may be necessary for Subscribing
Organisations and Members to share certain information with our partner company, sponsor
or content provider. If any other company is collecting information, Subscribing
Organisations and Members will be given prior notice, and can elect not to use that
particular service.
AppsFarm.com may partner with other companies
to provide special services, products, discounts or other information that will benefit
our Subscribing Organisations and their Members. In addition, our sponsors and advertisers
fund the free features of our Services. We may request demographic information from
Subscribing Organisations and Members to help us attract sponsors, advertisers and
partners and to offer the most useful products, services and information. However, the
demographic information and Personal Information will be distributed to these sponsors,
advertisers, partners and any other third parties only in aggregate form unless the
Subscribing Organisation or Member is specifically notified to the contrary and given an
opportunity to elect not to transmit such information or receive such special service,
product, discount or other information.
Personal Information that a Subscribing
Organisation or Member chooses to transmit or allow to be transferred to another party
will be subject to the privacy policies of that party. This privacy statement does not
cover it, and AppsFarm.com has no responsibility or liability for such independent
policies.
AppsFarm.com may disclose Personal
Information or Site Information in special cases if (a) it is required to do so by law or
to comply with legal process served on AppsFarm.com or this site, or (b) we have a good
faith reason to believe that disclosing such Information is necessary or appropriate in
order to (i) identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing or
threatening to violate AppsFarm.com's or this website's policies or to cause injury to or
interference with the Services or AppsFarm.com's or its Subscribing Organisations',
Members' or any third party's rights or property, (ii) protect and defend the Services, or
AppsFarm.com's, its Subscribing Organisations', Members' or this website's rights or
property, or (iii) act under exigent circumstances to protect the safety of the Services,
or of AppsFarm.com's Subscribing Organisations, Members, this website or the public. In
the event of any planned disclosure of Site Information from a Subscribing Organisation
Site as described in clause (b) which results from a circumstance that AppsFarm.com
believes in good faith is not caused by such Subscribing Organisation, any such disclosure
shall occur only after prior notice to the Subscribing Organisation and upon terms and
conditions that will safeguard the Subscribing Organisation's confidential information to
the extent reasonably feasible.
Security
AppsFarm.com exercises great care to secure
your Personal Information and Site Information, and has implemented security measures in
accordance with industry practice. AppsFarm.com's network security uses a 'defence in
depth' strategy with multiple layers of protection. In addition, all information on our
servers is stored in secure operating environments that are not available to the public.
Each Subscribing Organisation's Site Information is stored separately, so that there is no
intermingling of Subscribing Organisation Site Information and no Subscribing Organisation
will have access to other Subscribing Organisations' Site Information. The Subscribing
Organisation Sites are monitored for network attacks 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Physical access to the Subscribing Organisation Sites is guarded 24 hours a day, 7 days a
week.
All Personal Information and Site Information
is secured by the site password, and Subscribing Organisations select the Members who have
access to this Information. Only Members who enter the correct login password are
permitted access to a Subscribing Organisation's Site Information. The Member's login ID
and password are unique to its Subscribing Organisation Site and are designed to protect
the Subscribing Organisation Site from unauthorised use. Ultimately, each Subscribing
Organisation is responsible for safeguarding the secrecy of its Members' login IDs and
passwords. Each Subscribing Organisation and its Members should be careful and responsible
with all such information and when they are online. We encourage Subscribing Organisations
and Members to follow good password doctrine. For example, change the password frequently,
do not record it where it is accessible by unauthorised personnel, and do not select a
password that can be easily guessed by an unauthorised person. AppsFarm.com will not be
responsible for any lost, stolen, otherwise disclosed or misused login ID or passwords.
Internally, we restrict access to all
Personal Information and Site Information to employees who need access to the Information
in order to do their jobs. These employees are very limited in number, and are committed
to our privacy and security policies. All such employees execute comprehensive
nondisclosure agreements, which provide explicit confidentiality protections. Any employee
who violates our privacy and/or security policies is subject to possible termination and
civil and/or criminal prosecution.
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the
Internet can be guaranteed to be totally secure, and there is a slight risk that data
could be intercepted or interrupted during Internet transmission. Although we strive to
provide for secure transmission of Subscribing Organisation and Member Personal
Information and all Site Information from the Member's computer to AppsFarm.com and for
secure storage of all Site Information, AppsFarm.com cannot warrant the security of any
information Subscribing Organisations or Members transmit to us or from our online
services or store on the Subscribing Organisation Sites, and Subscribing Organisations and
Members do so at their own risk.
Choices Concerning
Collection and Use of Information; Cancellation
Except for Personal Information that must be
provided in order for AppsFarm.com to provide the Services, Subscribing Organisations and
Members may elect (a) not to transmit any Personal Information to or receive any Premium
Service, special service, product, discount, promotional communications or other
information from AppsFarm.com, our sponsors and advertisers, our partners or other third
parties, (b) to decline services that require them to share certain information with our
partners, sponsors, advertisers, or content providers, (c) to remove their Personal
Information from the Subscribing Organisation's site and our databases, or (d) to cancel
the Site registration. Subscribing Organisations and Members can exercise some of these
options by telling us during the registration process or when they are asked to choose to
receive a specific service or product. In all cases, Subscribing Organisations and Members
can notify us of their election by using their login ID and password, and sending an email
to webmaster@AppsFarm.com, or writing to:

If a Subscribing Organisation cancels its Site registration, all the Personal Information
of the Subscribing Organisation and its Members will be removed from our databases (other
than in aggregate form or as necessary to maintain our administrative records), and the
Subscribing Organisation's intranet and all of its Site Information will be removed from
our servers.
Corrections/Updates
A Subscribing Organisation or Member may
update or modify any of its Personal Information previously provided to us by using its
login ID and password, and sending an email to webmaster@AppsFarm.com,
