Terms & Privacy
Updated: June 3, 2011
Thank you for your interest in Thot Of This. We invite you to access our web site and use our Service (as defined below), but please note that your invitation is subject to your review and agreement with certain terms and conditions. These terms and conditions are set forth in this document, and in certain other policies, guidelines and other terms or conditions that may be presented to you from time to time at other locations in our web sites in connection with specific Service offerings (all of which may be updated from time to time and are collectively referred to as our "Terms of Service"). You need not accept this requirement to agree to our Terms of Service, but if you reject our Terms of Service you do not have any right to access or use our Service. If you do access our web site and use our Service, your use shall be deemed to accept the Terms of Service and be a party to a legally binding contract with Thot Of This ("Thot Of This," "we," and sometimes "us").
Of course, you may also be required or elect to enter into a separate written agreement or click "accept" or "agree" to become a party to another contract with Thot Of This (a "Separate Agreement"), and these Terms of Service shall not be considered to supersede the specific contractual terms of the Separate Agreement. If there is any contradiction between the terms of the Separate Agreement and these Terms of Service, then the terms of the Separate Agreement shall take precedence over the contradictory terms in the Terms of Service with respect to the subject matter of such Separate Agreement. You may wish to save a copy of these Terms of Service for your records. In any event, be sure to regularly check these Terms of Service for any updates or other changes, which shall be legally binding upon you when we post them, whether or not we provide you any other notice of such changes. The then-applicable Terms of Service will be posted on the site, and we will indicate the date of each update at the beginning of the Terms of Service. Your continued use of the Service after any update will be deemed to represent your consent to be bound by, and agreement with, the new Terms of Service.

Please read the following to learn more about what information we collect, what we do with that information, and how we may use your personal information.
Information Collection and Use
The primary reason that we collect certain personal information is to provide the best possible level of customer service.

Registered Thot Of This users can view and change their personal information at any time by visiting the Thot Of This account information page by signing in and sending a Thot to Customer Service. Unregistered users may still be able to use certain Thot Of This web sites and services, in which case no personal information is collected.

Thot Of This may collect information and use it for internal business purposes in a number of situations, for example:

  • Personal information such as name, e-mail address, contact preferences, which Thot Of This products and services you use, and transactional information such as your credit card number to deliver and support our products and services;
  • Demographic information such as your occupation and where you use your computer and mobile devices to improve our understanding of our customer needs;
  • Tracking information about your visit from the browser or Thot Of This application on your computer or mobile device, including IP address, cookies and the pages you request for the purpose of analyzing trends, administering the site, tracking your navigation of the site, deliver relevant advertisements and gathering broad demographic information for aggregate use (note that IP addresses are not linked to "personally identifiable information"); and
  • Aggregate information from multiple users without personally identifying individuals, such as geographic region, which we may share with our business partners mainly to improve understanding of customer needs and provide relevant services.
You may elect to terminate your participation in the services at any time and/or delete information and material you have posted to any notebook. If you cancel your account, or delete any notebook or notebook content, it will no longer be accessible to you or others who may access the service, but there may continue to be residual copies of such information due to the nature of the computer system's operation and ongoing data back-up and archiving.

The Thot Of This web site allows you to create an "Thot Of This ID" based on your personal information.

If Thot Of This learns of a security system breach we may attempt to notify you and provide information on protective steps, if available, through the e-mail address that you supplied during registration or posting a notice on our web site.
