• Profile information, such as your username and password and any account preferences for the Services.
• Datasheet information. When enrolling in the service, you will be asked to fill out a datasheet with personal data fields that you can choose to complete so that we can find instances of data brokers holding that data about you and have it deleted. The kinds of categories that you can provide and thus have us search against include first name, middle name, last name or surname/family name, date of birth, gender, email addresses, phone numbers, street addresses, relatives’ names, employers, political affiliation, and ethnicity (“Datasheet Data”). This Datasheet Data information is used to provide the Dontlookforme.com service, specifically to search for listings containing your personal information on data broker websites and to have them removed. Providing this Datasheet Data information to us is entirely optional. The more information you provide, the more data points we can search against and the more listings we can potentially find and have deleted.

How We Share Your Personal Information
Datasheet Data Disclosures
Any Datasheet Data you enter on your datasheet may be disclosed by us to third parties such as data broker websites in the form of searches containing your personal information, to provide the Services. Such Datasheet Data disclosures are solely to request, on your behalf, that your personal information be removed from those data broker websites, and we do not share your Datasheet Data with third parties for any other reason.
General Data Disclosures
We do not share your personal information with third parties without your consent, except in the following circumstances or as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy:
Partners. We may share your personal information with our corporate subsidiaries and any other individual, corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability entity, governmental authority, unincorporated organization, trust, association, or other entity that directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, Dontlookforme.com (“Partners”) for purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy.
Service providers. We may share your personal information with partners that provide services on our behalf or help us operate the Services (such as customer support, hosting, analytics, email delivery, marketing, communications and database management services). These partners may use your personal information only as authorized by their contracts with us.
Third-party platforms and social media networks. If you have enabled features or functionality that connect the Services to a third-party platform or social media network (such as by connecting your account with a third party to the Services or sharing content via a third-party platform), we may disclose the personal information that you authorized us to share (excluding your Datasheet Data). We do not control the third party’s use of your personal information.

For compliance, fraud prevention and safety. We may share your personal information for the compliance, fraud prevention and safety purposes described above.
Government Requests. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this policy, we may preserve or disclose your information if we believe that it is reasonably necessary to comply with a law, regulation, or legal request or to protect the safety, property, or rights of Dontlookforme.com or others. However, nothing in this policy is intended to limit any legal defenses or objections that you may have to a third party or government request to disclose your information.
Business transfers. We may sell, transfer, or otherwise share some or all of our business or assets, including your personal information, in connection with a (potential) business transaction such as a corporate divestiture, merger, consolidation, acquisition, reorganization or sale of assets, or in the event of bankruptcy or dissolution.
Your Choices
In this section, we describe the rights and choices available to all users.
Access or update your information. If you have registered for an account with us, you may review and update certain personal information, including Datasheet Data, in your account profile by logging into your account.
Opt out of marketing communications. You may opt out of marketing emails by following the unsubscribe instructions at the bottom of the email. You may continue to receive service-related and other non-marketing emails.
Cookies & browser web storage. For information on how to disable cookies and similar technologies used in the Services, please refer to your browsers help page.
Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control. Some Internet browsers may be configured to send “Do Not Track” signals to the online services that you visit. We currently do not respond to “Do Not Track” or similar signals. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please visit www.allaboutdnt.com.
Choosing not to share your personal information. Where we are required by law to collect your personal information, or where we need your Datasheet Data to provide the Services to you, if you do not provide this information when requested (or you later ask to delete it), we may not be able to provide you with the Services. We will tell you what information you must provide to receive the Services by designating it as required at the time of collection or through other appropriate means. As described above, while you do not need to fill out your datasheet, we search for your personal data held by news and data brokers based on what you provide in the datasheet. The more information you provide in your datasheet, the more data points we can search against and the more listings we can potentially find and have deleted.
Third-party platforms or social media networks. If you choose to connect to the Services via a third-party platform or social media network, you may have the ability to limit the information that we may obtain from the third party at the time you connect your third-party account to the Services. Subsequently, you may be able to control your settings through the third-party platform. If you withdraw our ability to access certain information from a third-party platform or social media network, that choice will not apply to information that we have already received from that third party.
Other Sites, Mobile Applications, and Services
The Services may contain links to, or content or features from, other websites and online services operated by third parties. These links are not an endorsement of, or representation that we are affiliated with, any third party. In addition, our content may be included on web pages or in mobile applications or online services that are not associated with us. We do not control third-party websites, mobile applications, or online services, and we are not responsible for their actions. Other websites and services follow different rules regarding the collection, use, and sharing of your personal information. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of the other websites and mobile applications and online services you use.
Security Practices
While we implement safeguards designed to protect your information, no security system is impenetrable and due to the inherent nature of the Internet, we cannot guarantee that information, during transmission through the Internet or while stored on our systems or otherwise in our care, is absolutely safe from intrusion by others. We try our best by providing you with leading security practices, like encrypting all requests via a secure connection (HTTPS) and other best practices. We recommend that you take care to manage access to the computers and devices where you are logged in to our application.
International Data Transfers
We are headquartered in the United States and have service providers in other countries, and your personal information (excluding your Datasheet Data that is only stored in the United States) may be transferred outside of your state, province, or country to the United States or other locations where privacy laws may not be as protective as those in your state, province, or country. We will ensure that appropriate measures are in place for compliance with applicable data protection laws in relation to the transfer of your personal information to the United States.
Your California Privacy Rights
Under California law, California residents are entitled to ask us for a notice identifying the categories of personal customer information that we share with certain third parties for marketing purposes, and providing contact information for such third parties. If you are a California resident and would like a copy of this notice, please submit a written request to us via email at support@Dontlookforme.com.com.
