Our Privacy Policy
Welcome to Singlemommyhood.com (“website”), operated by Singlemommyhood, LLC (“we” or “us”). We understand that any individual who visits or contacts our website (“you” or “your”) may be concerned about our collection, use, and disclosure of your information. The following Privacy Policy describes the specific types of information that we collect, how we use that information, and the circumstances under which we may share that information with third parties.
Information Collected
We may collect personal information from you in the course of your visit to our website. Personal Information (or “information”) means your screen name in conjunction with your IP address and e-mail address
Means By Which Information Is Collected
There are two principal means by which information may be collected: automatic collection and non-automatic collection.
Automatic Collection: Like many sites, we use “cookies” or other tracking technology. Cookies are small text files that reside on your computer and identify you as a unique user. Cookies allow us to, among other things, measure activity on our website and to personalize your experience on our website. For instance, cookies may enable us to remember your viewing preferences. If you choose, you can set your browser to reject cookies or you can manually delete individual or all of the cookies on your computer by following your browser’s help file directions. However, if your browser is set to reject cookies or you manually delete cookies, you may have some trouble accessing and using some of the pages and features on our website.
Non-Automatic Collection: We may collect information by asking you to fill out a form online. We may also collect information by asking you to provide information to us by e-mail, phone, or mail.
We do not seek information from children. If you are under 18 you should not provide us with any information.
Purposes For Which Information May Be Used
Uses, Generally: We may ask you if you would like to opt-in to receive news and information from Singlemommyhood .com, or news and information about products or services offered by us. If you opt-in to receive such information, we will use your personal information to provide you with information that we determine, in our sole judgment, may be of interest to you.
At any time you may choose to opt-out from receiving news and information from Singlemommyhood.com. For your convenience we have provided you with two ways to opt-out of receiving materials from us. First, when you opt-in to receiving information from us, we send you an email confirmation that contains information, including a web link, on how to “unsubscribe.” Second, you can click on an “opt-out” link provided at the bottom of every e-mail that you receive from us.
Tracking Usage: We may track how you use our site. In addition, we may aggregate the information that you provide with the information that other users provide in order to conduct research, analyses, or studies for our own purposes (i.e., not related to providing you with specific products or services).
Sharing Your Information
Generally: We may collect information from you in the course of your visit to our website. In general we do not collect personal information as that term is ordinarily defined (i.e., your first and last name in conjunction with sensitive information about you). We do collect other information about you such as your screen name, your email address, and your IP address. For consistency this is what we mean when we refer to “information” in this policy.
Blog Posts: You may choose to submit or post information as part of a blog. Because any information you choose to post will be available on the Internet, we can make no assurance that others will not use, or misuse that information.
Subcontractors: From time to time we may share information with subcontractors that provide us with services. These services may include, among other things, helping to provide services that you request, helping to create or maintain our databases, and helping to research and analyze the people who request services or information from us.
Law Enforcement: We may report to law enforcement agencies any activities that we reasonably believe to be unlawful, or that we reasonably believe may aid a law enforcement investigation into unlawful activity. In addition, we reserve the right to release your information to law enforcement agencies if we determine, in our sole judgment, that either you have violated our policies, or the release of your information may protect the rights, property or safety of Singlemommyhood.com, you, or another person.
As Permitted by Law: We may share your information with others as required by, or permitted by, law. This may include sharing your information with governmental entities, or third parties in response to subpoenas, court orders, other legal process, or as we believe is necessary to exercise our legal rights, to defend against legal claims that have been brought against us, or to defend against possible legal claims that we determine in our sole discretion might be brought against us.
Successors: In the unlikely event that Singlemommyhood.com is acquired by a successor-in-interest, your information will be transferred to the acquiring entity. In such a situation, you will be provided with notice that a transfer of your information is imminent, and you will be given an opportunity to opt-out of the transfer of your information.
Removal of Your Information
Once you have provided information to us, we may store and maintain that information for so long as you have not directed us to do otherwise.
Security of Your Information
We have instituted reasonable measures to ensure that your information is secure and that it is not disclosed to individuals or entities that are not described in this Privacy Policy. While we are focused on the security of your information and follow reasonable procedures designed to protect your information, we cannot promise, and you should not expect, that your information will remain secure in all circumstances.
Notice
If we are required to provide you with notice of a particular event or incident, we will send you that notice by e-mail, telephone, or mail.
Other Websites
Our website, or our e-mails, may link to third parties’ websites. It is also possible that third parties’ websites or e-mails may link to our website. We are not responsible for the content or the privacy practices employed by third parties. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of these websites before transmitting any information to third parties.
Changes to the Privacy Policy
We reserve the right to modify or amend this policy at any time by posting the revised Privacy Policy on our website. Material changes will only affect the information we collect after the effective date of the change to our Privacy Policy unless we clearly express otherwise.
