CrazyCricket.com requests that you read this Privacy Policy carefully.Personal Information CrazyCricket.com Collects and How It Is Used Introduction.
CrazyCricket.com collects information in different ways from
Visitors and Members who access the various parts of our Services
and the network of Web sites accessible through our Service. We use
this information primarily to provide a customized experience as you
use our Services and, generally, do not share this information with
third parties. However, we may disclose personal information
collected if we have received your permission beforehand or in very
special circumstances, such as when we believe that such disclosure
is required by law or other special cases described below.
Registration . Members
are asked to provide certain personal information when they sign up
for our Services including name, address, telephone number, billing
information (such as a credit card number), and the type of personal
computer being used to access the Services. The personal information
collected from Members during the registration process is used to
manage each Member's account (such as for billing purposes). This
information is not shared with third parties, unless specifically
stated otherwise or in special circumstances. However, in instances
where CrazyCricket.com and a partner jointly promote the Services,
CrazyCricket.com may provide the partner certain personal information,
such as the name, address, and username of persons who subscribed to
the Services as a result of the joint promotion for the sole purpose
of allowing us and the partner to assess the results of the
promotion. In this instance, personal information may not be used by
the partner for any other purpose. CrazyCricket.com may also generate
non-identifying and aggregate profiles from personal information
Members provide during registration (such as the total number, but
not the names, of Members). As explained in more detail below, we
may use this aggregated and non-identifying information to sell
advertisements that appear on the Services. CrazyCricket.com Partners and Sponsors.
Some CrazyCricket.com products and services are offered to
Visitors and Members in conjunction with a non-affiliated partner.
To provide Visitors and Members some of these products and services,
the partner may need to collect and maintain personal information.
In these instances, you will be notified before any such data is
collected or transferred and may decide not to use that particular
service or feature. Online Shopping. At some Web sites, you can purchase products and services or register to receive materials, such as a services or new product and service updates.

the personal information you provide only to process that order. We
do not share this information with outside parties except to the
extent necessary to complete that order. Online Advertisements.
CrazyCricket.com displays our online advertisements. We share
aggregated and non-identifying information about our Visitors and
Members collected through the registration process as well as
through online surveys and promotions with these advertisers.
Additionally, in some instances, we use this aggregated and
non-identifying information to deliver tailored advertisements. For
instance, an advertiser tells us the audience they want to reach and
provides us an advertisement tailored to the audience. Based upon
the aggregated and non-identifying information we have collected, we
may then display the advertisement to the intended audience.
CrazyCricket.com does not share personal information about its Visitors
or Members with these advertisers. Responses to Email Inquiries
. When Visitors or Members send email inquiries to
CrazyCricket.com, the return email address is used to answer the email
inquiry we receive. CrazyCricket.com does not use the return email
address for any other purpose and does not share the return email
address with any third party. Voluntary Customer Surveys .
We may periodically conduct both business and individual customer
surveys. We encourage our customers to participate in these surveys
because they provide us with important information that helps us to
improve the types of services we offer and how we provide them to
you. Your personal information and responses will remain strictly
confidential, even if the survey is conducted by a third party.
Participation in our customer surveys is voluntary. We take the information we receive from individuals responding to
our Customer Surveys and combine (or aggregate) it with the
responses of other CrazyCricket.com customers to create broader,
generic responses to the survey questions (such as gender, age,
residence, hobbies, education, employment, industry sector, or other
demographic information). We then use the aggregated information to
improve the quality of our services to you, and to develop new
services and products. This aggregated, non-personally identifying
information may be shared with third parties. Special Cases. It is
CrazyCricket.com's policy not to use or share the personal information
about Visitors or Members in ways unrelated to the ones described
above without also providing you an opportunity to opt out or
otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses. However, CrazyCricket.com may
disclose personal information about Visitors or Members, or
information regarding your use of the Services or Web sites
accessible through our Services, for any reason if, in our sole
discretion, we believe that it is reasonable to do so, including: to
satisfy laws, such as the Electronic Communications Privacy Act,
regulations, or governmental or legal requests for such information;
to disclose information that is necessary to identify, contact, or
bring legal action against someone who may be violating our user
policies; to operate the Services properly; or to protect
