The contents of your
Ratenow.com account also are stored and maintained on Ratenow.com servers in
order to provide this service. Ratenow.com's computers process the
information in your standalone database for all purposes, including keeping a
revision history and displaying the information back to you, possibly
delivering targeted related information (such as advertisements and
related links), maintaining back-ups of your database. Because we keep back-up copies of all data for the
sole purpose of recovery from errors or system failure, residual copies of
database may remain on our systems for some time, even after you have
deleted database or after the termination of your account. Ratenow.com
employees do not access to the content of any database unless you
specifically request them to do so (for example, if you are having
technical difficulties accessing your database) or if required by law, or to
maintain our system, or to protect Ratenow.com or the public.

may collect information about the use of your account, such as how much
storage you are using, how often you sign in and other information related
to your registration and use of the Ratenow.com SOA. Information displayed or clicked
on in your Ratenow.com account (including UI elements, ads, links, and other
information) is also recorded. We use this information internally to
deliver the best possible service to you, such as improving the Ratenow.com
user interface and response requirements.
Ratenow.com will never sell, rent or share your information. Your registration information is property of Ratenow.com.

Log information. When you use your
Ratenow.com account, we collect certain information (the same information that
most web sites log when they are accessed). This information, contained in
the "header" of your request to access the Ratenow.com page, usually includes
the browser type you used, your Internet Protocol address, and the date
and time of day.
As a basic matter, we
need this information to help us provide our services to you. For example,
we need to validate your identity in order to maintain the security of
your database. We also need to know what Internet Protocol address your
query came from so we can send the appropriate pages back to
you.
In addition, we log this information for internal business
purposes. For example, this log information helps us determine how well
our services are working so we can continually improve the quality of
Ratenow.com. The log information is also important for security, audit,
quality improvement, and other internal business purposes.
When we may disclose your information.
We do not disclose your information to any third
parties unless we believe we are required to do so by law or have a good
faith belief that such access, preservation or disclosure is reasonably
necessary to (a) satisfy any applicable law, regulation, due process, (b) enforce the Ratenow.com Terms of Use, including
investigation of potential violations thereof, (c) detect, prevent, or
otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues, (d) respond to user
support requests, or (e) protect the rights, property or safety of
Ratenow.com, its users and the public.
Transfer of information.

processed in the United States in which Ratenow.com
Inc. or its agents maintain facilities.
We
reserve the right to transfer your information in the event of a
transfer of ownership of Ratenow.com, such as acquisition by or merger with
another company. In such an event, Ratenow.com will notify you before
information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy
policy.
