Sharing Personally Identifiable Information with Third Parties |
|
|
To deliver advertising
to you that most closely matches your interests, we share your personal
information with carefully selected companies with whom we have
relationships and trust. However, we will not share your personally
identifiable information unless we have first given you notice that we might
share your data, and you have authorized us to do so. If you have not
opted-in to receive these offers, and would like to do so now, you will be
able to change your preferences. If you have previously opted-in, but now
wish to remove yourself from these mailing lists, you will be able to change
your preferences, or you may send email directly to us, and we will modify
your preferences accordingly. Our partners who receive information from us
have the right to use the data we provide them (sometimes, in connection
with other information they may have gathered about you), but are generally
prohibited from sharing this information with other companies or people. In
addition, if we add new features or services that might require the sharing
of your personal information with an additional advertiser or sponsor, we
will provide you with notice and the opportunity to opt-in to receive these
offers. |

| Cookies: How They Are Used and Opting-Out | |
|
How They Are Used A "cookie" is a small piece of data that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer's hard drive. Cookies do not damage your system or impair its functioning in any way. We use cookies to help us provide customizable services and to allow you to sign-in to our site. For example, we can store your zip code in a cookie and this enables us to display your local weather each time you visit our site. Cookies also make web surfing easier for you by saving your preferences while you're on our site. Cookies may also be used by Buyselltrades Auctions partners on co-branded Web pages, as explained below in "third party relationships," so please be aware of this as you visit these Web pages. You can choose whether to accept cookies by changing the settings of your browser. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies, or allow your browser to show you when a cookie is being sent. If you choose not to accept these cookies, your experience at our site and other Web sites may be diminished and some features will not work as intended.

| Special Categories of Information | |
|
will not share any personally identifiable
information about our users that is of medical, financial or sexual nature. |
|
| Use of IP Addresses | |
|
An Internet protocol (I.P.) address is a set of
numbers that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you log on
to your internet service provider or through your company's local area
network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN). Web servers - the powerful
computers that provide web pages for viewing - automatically identify your
computer by the IP address assigned to it during your session online. Buyselltrades Auctions may collect I.P. addresses for purposes of system administration, to report anonymous user information to our advertisers (as explained above), and to audit the use of our site. We do not ordinarily link a user's I.P. address to personally identifiable information of that user, which means each user's session will be logged, but the user remains anonymous to us. However, we can and will use I.P. addresses to identify users of our site when we feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with our site's terms of use or terms of service, or to protect our service, site, or other users. PLEASE NOTE: Under certain circumstances, I.P. addresses and/or domain names may be linked to personally identifiable information, when said information is stored in databases managed by Internet registrars or registries. |

| Keywords | |
|
Certain advertisers have paid for the
right to display advertisements on search results pages corresponding to
certain words. For instance, a particular resistor manufacturer may want its
advertisement to be displayed when users search for its resistor. We want to
be clear: by serving these ads, we are not affecting the
integrity of the search results in any way. The only difference is that the
ads that you see on the page may be influenced by the words searched. Of
course, many of the ads on the search results page may also be randomly
generated, so there is no clear-cut way of knowing which ads are targeted to
certain "key words" searched for, and which are not. This is true whether or
not you are a registered user of our site. |

upper-right corner of the page that says 'Powered by ______', you will know
you are on a co-branded Web page. If you ever have any questions about
whether certain information, content or services pertain to us, or are
"powered by" one of our partners, please contact us at
