Invendium Ltd
and its web sites (together "Invendium) will track the domains from which
people visit Invendium and analyze this data for trends and statistics.
Subject to the provisions of this Privacy Policy, different Invendium sites
may use accumulated data for different purposes, including but not limited
to marketing analysis, service evaluation and planning.
Invendium contains links to other websites, whether owned or controlled by
Invendium, affiliates or unrelated third parties. Invendium is not
responsible for the privacy policies and practices of any linked website
outside its ownership.
Currently, Invendium uses personal information as a basis for notifications
to users, "opt-in" emails, and in order to implement the terms of the Terms
of Service governing the website (the "TOS"). User names and email addresses
(as well as any additional information that a user may choose to post) are
publicly available on the Invendium site, unless a user elects to "opt-out"
of such display of personal information. However, in cases where users
voluntarily and publicly disclose personal information which may contain
Registration Data, or otherwise post personal information in conjunction
with content subject to an open source license, such personal information
necessarily will be disclosed subject to the terms of the applicable
license.
Subject to the foregoing, Invendium may conduct surveys of other studies of
its customer base and usage for marketing and planning purposes. With
respect to information collected from such surveys or studies, and in the
event that responses are to be publicly disclosed, users will be notified at
the time they take the survey and Invendium will disclose only aggregate
information regarding its users and not personal information identifying any
specific individual. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in cases where surveys
allow users to submit written comments, and where Invendium advises users of
the possibility of such disclosure at the time they take the survey,
Invendium reserves the right to disclose text information provided by any
user through such a survey, provided that no personal information
identifying that user is disclosed.
Cookies:
Invendium employs "cookies" to provide a user with tailored information. A
"cookie" is an element of data which a Service or site, when visited by a
user, sends to that user's browser which, in turn, may store that element on
the user's hard drive or memory. Invendium uses cookies to better serve
users who use our Services. However, at his or her option and at his or her sole expense and
responsibility, any user may block or delete our cookies from his or her
hard drive. However, by disabling cookies, certain site features and
functionality may no longer work properly, or at all.
"Opt-in" Emails:
Users may "opt-in" to receive site notifications, newsletters or other
information via email. Users may remove themselves from such services at
their discretion. Any email sent to an "opt-in" list will include directions
for how a user may remove him or herself from the list, or a URL where the
user may find such directions.
Other Notification:
In order to implement or enforce the Terms of Service of the relevant
Invendium site, Invendium may use personal information to contact users on
an individual basis.
Profiles:
In some cases, users' personal information may be publicly available through
a user's profile display. In cases where site profiles allow
users to display optional information publicly, such entry and display is at
the user's discretion and may be changed at any time by the user.
Email Display:
In some cases, users may have the opportunity to use an Invendium service to
send electronic mail to another user or email list. In such cases, a user's
valid email address and real name will be included with such messages. In
order to prevent abuse, users may not opt-out of such a display, but may
choose to refrain from using said Service to transmit an email message.
General:
In cases where users voluntarily and publicly disclose personal information
which may contain Registration Data or otherwise post personal information
in conjunction with content subject to an open source license, such personal
information necessarily will be disclosed subject to the terms of the
applicable license. An example of such a disclosure includes, but is not
limited to, a user's disclosure of personal information as part of a message
posted to a public message forum or a publicly-released software
application.
At no time, unless such disclosure is required by law or a user specifically
authorizes such disclosure, will Invendium disclose individual user personal
information that is not publicly available to unrelated third parties.
Surveys and Resulting Information:
Subject to the foregoing, Invendium may conduct surveys or other studies of
its customer base and usage for marketing and planning purposes.
Participation in such surveys is at the user's option; Invendium does not
conduct mandatory surveys.
With respect to information collected from such surveys or studies, and in
the event that responses are to be publicly disclosed, users will be
notified at the time they take the survey and Invendium will disclose only
aggregate information regarding its users and not personal information
identifying any specific individual. Circumstances under which Invendium
would publicly disclose such aggregate information include, but are not
limited to, sharing survey results with the site population, providing data
to Invendium advertisers on user preferences and/or demographics, and
publicizing overall usage data in press communications.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in cases where surveys allow users to submit
written comments, and where Invendium advises users of the possibility of
such disclosure at the time they take the survey, Invendium reserves the
right to disclose text information provided by any user through such a
survey, provided that no personal information identifying that user is
disclosed.
Access With regard to personal information:
Users can view their data on their personal profile page. When technically
feasible, users are permitted to update their personal information directly
through the Invendium service. When such updating service is not technically
feasible, Invendium will make reasonable efforts to assist users in updating
their personal information.
Security
To secure site
integrity Invendium employs reasonable security measures and procedures.
Internal access to users' private and nonpublic personal information is
restricted to site administrators and individuals on a need-to-know basis.
Enforcement

or user nonpublic information has been disclosed to unrelated third parties
as a result of external activity, including but not limited to external
security attacks, Invendium shall take reasonable measures which it deems
appropriate, including but not limited to internal investigation and
reporting, and notification to and cooperation with law enforcement
authorities.

Invendium has been disclosed in a manner not permitted by this Privacy
Policy, Invendium shall make reasonable efforts to notify the affected user,
as soon as reasonably possible and as permitted by law, of what information
has been disclosed, to the extent that Invendium knows this information.

policy, we will email notice of the change to known users at least 15 days
