In some cases, Adhost requests personally identifiable information from you in order to satisfy the underlying transaction or purpose of your accessing the Site. Examples of personally identifiable information include names, e-mail addresses, mailing addresses, telephone numbers, etc. If identifiable personal information is collected from you, Adhost will abide by the following policy.

General Data Collected

When you visit our site our web server automatically recognizes only your domain name, but not your e-mail address. We collect the domain name and monitor general site use and traffic patterns to improve our web site and the products and services we offer. Adhost uses web server logs to collect data for metric purposes. Examples of the types of data collected on the logs are IP addresses, referral pages, date and time of site access, and site visited. We may use collected data to customize the content and/or layout of our pages for each individual visitor. Additionally, Adhost may collect registration data in order to monitor compliance with the terms of use governing the Site.

Cookies

Adhost is committed to continually improving our visitor's experience with our web site. Cookies are currently the only way to effectively identify a unique anonymous visitor and understand how he/she navigates our web site. Adhost may use cookies for tracking purposes and to make your use of any personal page areas of the Site easier. A cookie is a data file written to your hard drive by the server controlling the Site. If you want to be warned before a cookie is placed on your hard drive, you may set your browser to provide a warning before it accepts a cookie. With most Internet browsers, you can erase cookies from your computer hard drive, block all cookies, or receive a warning before a cookie is stored. Please refer to your browser instructions or help screen to learn more about these functions. If you choose to prevent the use of a cookie, some functionality of your use of the site -- such as the shopping cart -- may be impaired.

Security

At Adhost.com, protecting your information is a priority. We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to encrypt your credit card number, name, and address, so only Adhost is able to decode your information. To confirm that SSL is engaged to protect your connection, look at the bottom status bar of your browser window. If you see an unbroken key or a closed lock (depending on your browser), the SSL is active. Most browsers offer additional security alerts, as well. With regard to overall security, we always use industry standard encryption technologies when transferring and receiving data exchanged with our site.

Disclosure

We do not rent, sell, or trade any personally identifiable information about you (e.g., e-mail addresses) to third parties. We may disclose information to third parties assisting us in processing a transaction requested by you (e.g., credit card service providers). In order to cooperate with legitimate governmental requests, subpoenas, or court orders, to protect Adhost and/or Adhost's systems and customers, or to ensure the integrity and operation of Adhost and/or Adhost's business and systems, Adhost may access and disclose any information it considers necessary or appropriate under the circumstances.
