Privacy Policy
The following web pages outline hto.to’s collection and use of personal information from its users. hto.to values the privacy of our members and users. hto.to will never share any personal information of anybody who logs on to hto.to with anyone. This includes your e-mail address, name, and location. Upon logging on to hto.to, your IP address and hostname are logged for statistical and security reasons.
Security
hto.to will make a reasonable effort to protect all personal information such as passwords and use technology such as encryption, access control procedures, firewalls, and physical securities. We recommend you use a unique password with both letters and numbers to protect your account on hto.to. If others, including family, friends, or other household members access and use the comment or message board through your login credentials, you are responsible for the actions of yourself and your individual account. Only in extreme cases will your account be fully terminated.
Cookies
hto.to uses cookies (a very small text file placed on your system when you log on to hto.to, and most other websites) to serve as an identification card and is uniquely yours. It can only be read by the server that gives this cookie to you. Cookies give us information that you returned to hto.to’s specific pages and help us track your preferences and your behavior. The basic function of cookies is to help our server remember who you are.
Disclosing Information
When required by applicable law, hto.to may store and disclose personal information for the members of the website. This means that we may make a disclosure that is necessary for the legal and regulatory requirements to protect the rights, safety, and property of hto.to, users of the hto.to website, and the public.
Children’s Privacy
hto.to makes a reasonable effort to prevent someone who is underage to join as a member. hto.to also will not collect information and personal data from children under the age of 13. If there is someone under the age of 13 to become a member of hto.to, we will close that child’s account and delete any information collected about the child. Notwithstanding the foregoing, hto.to may choose to retain some personal information such as the underage’s e-mail address as a means to prevent the child from re-registering at our website. Since April 2000, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) went into effect, and as result websites all over the world wide web had to change the standards to not collect any information from a child.
Third Parties
Third-party websites may collect information from hto.to users. This information includes your IP Address, hostname, and information about your system to help us serve you better. They are functioned for statistical reasons, and will not be used for any other reasons.
