At MetalCentre.pl we appreciate your readership and value your personal privacy. We respect the personal nature of the information you provide us on our web site and acknowledge the importance of protecting this information. In adopting this privacy policy, our intent is to balance our legitimate business interests in collecting and using your personal information with your reasonable expectations of privacy. The policy may be revised or updated at any time and we encourage you to check back often to ensure that you are familiar with the most recent version and the terms of our policy.
When does MetalCentre.pl collect my personal information?
You may provide personal information to MetalCentre.pl in one of three ways: (1) by sharing personal information when you post comments on our posts or stories, (2) by sharing personal information when you provide tips to our news and editorial departments, or (3) by sharing contact information when you choose to opt-in to participate in sweepstakes, surveys, contests or competitions. We may also ask for other information at other times, but at no time will you be required to share any personal information to gain complete access to our site.
In addition to personal information — which may include, but is not limited to, your name, street and e-mail addresses, and telephone numbers — we may also collect information that is in no way personally identifiable. This may include your internet protocol (IP) addresses, the operating system you are working on, the internet browser you are using, the domain name of your internet service provider, and the web sites you visit directly before and after your visit to MetalCentre.pl.
Why does MetalCentre.pl use my personal information?
The more we know about you, the better we are able to customize our web site to suit your personal preferences and interests. The e-mail address you provide may be used by MetalCentre.pl for any reason, such as contacting you for editorial purposes.
To maintain a site that is free of charge and does not require registration, we display advertisements on our web site. We also use the information you give us to help our advertisers target the audience they want to reach. At no time does any party other than MetalCentre.pl have access to your personally identifiable information, and you will never be contacted by any party other than MetalCentre.pl. The only exceptions to the foregoing are that we may disclose personally identifiable information (i) in response to legal process, for example, in response to a court order or subpoena, (ii) in response to a law enforcement agency’s request, or where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take actions regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of another person, violations of our terms of use, or as otherwise required by law, or (iii) in the event we are acquired by or merged with another company.
Non-personally identifiable information (such as stated above) may be shared in aggregate form with our advertisers or marketing partners but your personally identifiable information will never be disclosed to them.
How does MetalCentre.pl use my personal information?
