This Privacy Policy tells you about ADstruc’s policies and practices for the collection, use and disclosure of information we collect about you through our sites and services, including the website at www.adstruc.com (“Website”), electronic messages between you and ADstruc, and ADstruc applications on third-party websites. This Privacy Policy does not apply to information collected by ADstruc offline or through other means or by any third party (including, without limitation, through any application or content that may link to or be accessible from the Website). By using our sites and services, you accept and agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy and you consent to our collection, storage, use and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy. Your continued use of our sites or services after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of those changes, so please check this policy periodically for updates. No one under age 13 may use, in any manner, or provide any personal information to or on our sites or services. This Privacy Policy is effective upon acceptance for new users and is otherwise effective on April 11, 2013.
You can browse parts of our sites without telling us who you are or revealing any personal information about yourself. Once you give us your personal information, you are not anonymous to us. If you choose to provide us with personal information, you consent to the transfer and storage of that information on our servers.
We may collect and store several types of information about you, including the following personal information:
We may obtain information from or about you in other ways. For example, we may verify user information with a service provider or combine your information with information we collect from other companies. Also, you may send us correspondence, testimonials, photos, writings, customer satisfaction surveys or customer service communications. You also may provide information to be published or displayed on public areas of our sites, or transmitted to other users of our sites or third parties. All such information you provide to be published or displayed on public areas of our sites is done so at your own risk.
We don't sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes without your explicit consent. We may combine your information with information we collect from other users and use it to improve and personalize our services, content and advertising.
Our primary purpose in collecting personal information is to provide you with a safe, smooth, efficient and customized experience. You agree that we may use your personal information to:
We share information between our buyers, sellers and/or vendors (as applicable) that allow them to complete a sale, like name, email address, phone number, physical address and other information that might be included in connection with a sale. We may disclose personal information to respond to legal requirements, enforce our policies, respond to claims that a listing or other content violates the rights of others, or protect anyone's rights, property, or safety. Such information will be disclosed in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
We may also share your personal information with:
Information you post to ADstruc’s websites regarding you and your property is displayed throughout ADstruc (and so may be available to the public). Your user ID and company name is also displayed throughout ADstruc’s websites and is connected to all of your ADstruc activity (and so may be available to the public). If you access our sites from a shared computer, a computer in an internet cafe, or an unsecure network, certain information about you, such as your user ID, may also be visible to other individuals who use the computer after you or have access to such unsecure network.
We use "cookies" (small files placed on your hard drive) on certain of our pages to help analyze our web page flow; customize our services, content and advertising; measure promotional effectiveness; and promote trust and safety. When you first use our sites and services, ADstruc may send a cookie to your computer that identifies you as a unique user. We may use session cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them) to store your preferences, identify you and maintain your signed-in status, and provide you with a more personal and interactive experience. You can set your browser to refuse cookies or delete persistent cookies by following your browser’s help instructions. If you choose to disable cookies, some of our services may not work properly and you may not be able to buy and sell items on ADstruc.
We work with companies who may use cookies and web beacons to collect anonymous information that helps us measure and improve our content and advertising effectiveness. We may share some anonymous, aggregated demographic information (like zip codes) with some of our partners, but we do not share any personally identifiable information. You may encounter cookies from third parties on certain pages of the sites that we do not control.
Your password is the key to your account. Use unique numbers, letters and special characters, and do not disclose your ADstruc password to anyone. If you do share your password or your personal information with others, remember that you are responsible for all actions taken in the name of your account. If you lose control of your password, you may lose substantial control over your personal information and may be subject to legally binding actions taken on your behalf. Therefore, if your password has been compromised for any reason, you should immediately notify ADstruc and change your password.
You can see, review and change most of your personal information by signing on to ADstruc. You must promptly update your personal information if it changes or is inaccurate. Upon your request, we will close your account and remove your personal information from view as soon as reasonably possible, based on your account activity and in accordance with applicable laws. We do retain personal information from closed accounts to comply with law, prevent fraud, collect any fees owed, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigations, enforce our Terms and Conditions, and take other actions otherwise permitted by law.
We may communicate with you at various times, with administrative emails or phone calls, about transactions and service announcements, customer service responses, and promotional emails like special offers, newsletters and updates. You can choose to stop receiving promotional emails at any time by simply using an email's unsubscribe function. You may not opt out of receiving administrative messages or customer service responses.
Your information is stored on our servers. We treat data as an asset that must be protected and use lots of tools (e.g., encryption, passwords, physical security, etc.) to protect your personal information against unauthorized access and disclosure. However, as you probably know, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, and other users may abuse or misuse your personal information that they collect from the site. Therefore, although we work very hard to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will always remain private.
Except as otherwise expressly included in this Privacy Policy, this document addresses only the use and disclosure of information we collect from you. If you disclose your information to others, whether they are bidders, buyers, sellers or vendors on our sites or other sites throughout the internet, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the information you disclose to them. ADstruc does not control the privacy policies of third parties, and you are subject to the privacy policies of those third parties where applicable. We encourage you to ask questions before you disclose your personal information to others.
We may amend this Privacy Policy at any time by posting the amended terms on the Website. All amended terms automatically take effect 30 days after they are initially posted on the Website. In addition, we will notify you of material changes by posting the date this Privacy Policy was last modified on the Website or a communication to you.
