policy covers treatment of personal information that sinobrides.com

Precautions
Sinobrides.com
has security measures in place to protect its members against

control. Our secure server software (SSL) is the industry
standard and among the best software available today for secure
commerce transactions. We encrypt all of your personal as
it travels over the Internet.
Collecting

The primary
need in collecting personal information about you is to provide
you with an effective, functional, and customized experience
when using our Site. In this way we are able to provide services
and features that most closely meet your needs and to customize
our service to make using the Site as easy as possible.
Your email address and your other personal information are
used in such a way as to help us efficiently operate the Site,
to contact you in connection with your actions and other activities
on the Site, and to forward messages to you with pertinent
information regarding your account. We may also use personal
information to send you newsletters, information, special
offers, and other promotional materials associated with sinobrides.com.
In some instances these Administrative Communications may
also contain commercial messages such as special offers or
banner ads.
Some personal information submitted to sinobrides.com for
the purpose of registrations, such as your real name, address,
and telephone number is confidential and will never be posted
by us in your profile. We DO NOT DISCLOSE your email address,
NOR DO WE SELL IT or make it available to any third party
other than as outlined here. We ask that when creating your
visible profile you not include such identifying information.
For example, never include any identifying information when
creating a user name. Never include identifying information
in the essay portion, or any portion, of your public profile.
We reserve the right to remove any profiles containing identifying

This is done to PROTECT AND ENSURE THE PRIVACY AND SAFETY
of our members.

in cases where it is deemed necessary in order to comply with
applicable law, we may be forced to disclose information to
the government, law enforcement agencies, or other third parties.

names, trademarks, or intellectual property, we have no
influence over these external sites or their actions, and

of your information will be governed by their own privacy
policy. Please review the respective privacy policies provided

our stores, and communicating with you.
Automatic Information

and store certain types of information whenever you interact

and we obtain certain types of information when your Web
browser accesses sinobrides.com. Click here to see examples

hard drive through your Web browser to enable our systems
to recognize your browser.
The Help portion of the toolbar on most browsers will tell

coolest features, and we recommend that you leave them turned
on.
Does
sinobrides.com Share the Information It Receives?
Information
about our customers is an important part of our business,
and we are not in the business of selling it to others.
We share customer information only as described below and
with subsidiaries sinobrides.com, Inc. controls that either
are subject to this Privacy Notice or follow practices at
least as protective as those described in this Privacy Notice.
Agents:
We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions
on our behalf. They have access to personal information
needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for
other purposes.
Promotional
Offers: Sometimes we send offers to selected groups of sinobrides.com
customers on behalf of other businesses. When we do this,
we do not give that business your name and address. If you
do not want to receive such offers, please inform us.
Business
Transfers: As we continue to develop our business, we might
sell or buy stores, subsidiaries, or business units. In
such transactions, customer information generally is one
of the transferred business assets but remains subject to
the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Notice (unless,
of course, the customer consents otherwise). Also, in the
unlikely event that sinobrides.com, Inc., or substantially
all of its assets are acquired, customer information will
of course be one of the transferred assets.
Protection
of sinobrides.com and Others: We release account and other
personal information when we believe release is appropriate
to comply with the law; enforce or apply our Conditions
of Use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property,
or safety of sinobrides.com, our users, or others. This
includes exchanging information with other companies and
organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
Obviously, however, this does not include selling, renting,
sharing, or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable
information from customers for commercial purposes in violation
of the commitments set forth in this Privacy Notice.
With Your Consent: Other than as set out above, you will
receive notice when information about you might go to third
parties, and you will have an opportunity to choose not
to share the information.
How
Secure Is Information About Me?
We work
to protect the security of your information during transmission
by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts
information you input.
We reveal only the last five digits of your credit card
numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we transmit
the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit
card company during order processing.
It is important for you to protect against unauthorized
access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to
sign off when finished using a shared computer.

gives you access to a broad range of information about your
account and your interactions with sinobrides.com for the
limited purpose of viewing and, in certain cases, updating
that information.

of Use, Notices, and Revisions
