If you do not register, you will not be permitted to access the web site, and we will not collect any personal information from you.

When you register with ExpertForEquity.com, you are required to provide certain information: full name, date of birth, username, personal password, a valid email address, your country, state, city and zip code. You may voluntarily provide us with certain personal information, such as schools attended, employment history, current work status and other personal or preference information that you may choose to provide to us.

When you access ExpertForEquity.com, we collect your browser type and IP address. This information is gathered for all ExpertForEquity.com visitors. In addition, we store certain information from your browser using "cookies." A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's computer tied to information about the user. We use session ID cookies to confirm that users are logged in. These cookies terminate once the user closes the browser. When you use ExpertForEquity.com, you may post messages, form relationships, send messages, perform searches and queries, form groups, set up events, and transmit information through various channels. We collect this information so that we can provide you the service and offer personalized features. In most cases, we retain it so that, for instance, you can return to view prior messages you have sent or easily see your friend list. When you update information, we usually keep a backup copy of the prior version for a reasonable period of time to enable reversion to the prior version of that information. We may also collect information about you from other sources, such as newspapers, blogs, instant messaging and chat services, and other users of the Service through the operation of the Service in order to provide you with more useful information and a more personalized experience.

By using ExpertForEquity.com, you are consenting to have your personal data transferred to and processed in the United States.

We do not knowingly collect or solicit personal information from anyone under the age of 18 or knowingly allow such persons to register. If you are under 18, do not send any information about yourself to us, including your name, address, telephone number, or e-mail address. No one under age 18 is allowed to provide any personal information to us or on ExpertForEquity.com.

4. USE OF INFORMATION OBTAINED BY EXPERTFOREQUITY.COM
When you register with ExpertForEquity.com, you create your own profile and privacy settings. Your profile information is displayed to people in the networks specified in your privacy settings to enable you to connect with people on ExpertForEquity.com. We may occasionally use your name and email address to send you notifications regarding new services offered by ExpertForEquity.com that we think you may find valuable.

Profile information is used by us primarily to be presented back to and edited by you when you access the Service and to be presented to others permitted to view that information by your privacy settings. In some cases where your privacy settings permit it (e.g., posting to your Comments), other ExpertForEquity.com users may be able to supplement your profile. You can delete these comments if you wish.

We may use information in your profile without identifying you as an individual to third parties. We believe this benefits you. For example, if you put inventor in your profile, we might serve you an advertisement for patent attorney or businesses of similar nature in your geographic area. But we don't tell the advertisers who you are.

5. SHARING YOUR INFORMATION WITH THIRD PARTIES
We do on occassion provide contact information to third party marketers without your permission. We share your information with third parties only in limited circumstances where we believe such sharing is 1) reasonably necessary to offer the service, 2) legally required or, 3) opportunities and/or information we feel would interest you. For example: We may provide information to service providers to help us bring you the services we offer. Specifically, we may use third parties to facilitate our business, such as to host the service at a co-location facility for servers, to send out email updates about ExpertForEquity.com, to remove repetitive information from our user lists, to process payments for products or services, or to provide search results or links (including sponsored links). In connection with these offerings and business operations, our service providers may have access to your personal information for use for a limited time in connection with these business activities. Where we utilize third parties for the processing of any personal information, we implement reasonable contractual and technical protections limiting the use of that information to the ExpertForEquity.com-specified purposes. We occasionally provide demonstration accounts that allow non-users a glimpse into the ExpertForEquity.com world. Such accounts have passwords that are changed regularly to limit possible misuse. We may be required to disclose user information pursuant to lawful requests, such as subpoenas or court orders, or in compliance with applicable laws. We do not reveal information until we have a good faith belief that an information request by law enforcement or private litigants meets applicable legal standards. Additionally, we may share account or other information when we believe it is necessary to comply with law, to protect our interests or property, to prevent fraud or other illegal activity perpetrated through the Service or using the ExpertForEquity.com name, or to prevent imminent bodily harm. This may include sharing information with other companies, lawyers, agents or government agencies. We let you choose to share information with marketers or electronic commerce providers through sponsored groups or other on-site offers. We may offer stores or provide services jointly with other companies on ExpertForEquity.com. You can tell when another company is involved in any store or service provided on ExpertForEquity.com, and we may share customer information with that company in connection with your use of that store or service. If the ownership of the Website, Service, or individual business units owned ExpertForEquity.com, LLC were to change, your user information may be transferred to the new owner so the service can continue operations. In any such transfer of information, your user information would remain subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Policy.
