Privacy Policy

Last Updated: January 4, 2010

At neerg Technologies Inc., ("neerg" or "we"), we respect your right to privacy and care about how your personal information is used. On our website, http://www.neerg.com (the "Site"), you may browse and purchase products from our merchants, participate in the community, and, if you are a merchant, you may display, sell and promote your products and your business. This Privacy Policy, along with our Terms of Use and Copyright and Intellectual Property Policy, govern the use of the Site and the associated services provided by neerg, including how we treat the personal information we collect and receive from you.

SCOPE OF PRIVACY POLICY

This Privacy Policy governs any user who visits, submits information to, purchases or sells from, or otherwise uses the Site or any of neerg's related services, except as set forth below.

General Information :

Age . Our Site is not directed to children under the age of 13 and we request that such individuals do not submit personal information to the Site. We assume products purchased through Amazon Payments are purchased by adults or minors supervised by a parent or guardian.

We respect the privacy of parents and children and are committed to complying with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA"). If a parent believes that his or her child has provided us with personal information, he or she can contact us via e-mail or postal mail as listed below. We will promptly delete the information upon learning that it relates to a child under the age of 13. If we learn that a user of the Site who is under 13 is publicly posting or sharing personally identifiable information, the user will be blocked from accessing these areas of the Site.

TYPES OF PERSONAL INFORMATION WE COLLECT

neerg receives and stores any information you enter on our Site or otherwise provide to us, including information that is generated by your activities on our Site. Some of the information, like your name and email address, will identify you personally and some, like your computer's IP address, will not reveal your specific identity but may be used in the aggregate. We may use the information that you provide for such purposes as opening your account, processing your orders, responding to your requests, communicating with you, customizing your experience, and for research. You also have the opportunity to share additional information with us and other users in order to express yourself on the Site.

Here are the types of information we collect and/or that you may share:

Registration . You may browse the sight without becoming a registered user. If you choose, you may become a registered user by creating an account with us. When you create an account, we require that you supply certain personally identifiable information such as your name and e-mail address, If you wish to become a merchant and sell products, you may be asked to provide additional information related to you and your business, such as your business name, address, and phone number.

Purchases and Payment Processing . If you choose to purchase products from a merchant on our Site, you must be a registered user. The actual purchase will be handled by Amazon Payments. In order to buy or sell items and send or receive payments, you are required to have an account with our third-party payment service provider, Amazon Payments, Inc., which may request additional information such as your full name, billing address, and banking or credit card information. Their use of such information is subject to their own privacy policies and applicable law. For more information, you may review the Amazon Payments Privacy Notice.

User Generated Content. You may also choose to post content to the Site including articles, ratings, forum postings, blog entries, photos, videos, and other content that you own or have the right to display and reproduce. Such content will be viewable by us and anyone else who views or uses the Site.

User Home Page . Every registered user has a home page that is accessible by anyone who uses the Site (a "User Home Page" or "My neerg Page"). Your User Home Page is how you present yourself to the community. Some of the information on your User Home Page is provided by you and some is generated automatically by your activities on the Site. As a registered user, you may update your User Home Page and adjust certain settings. If you are a merchant selling on our Site, then your shop home page links to your User Home Page.

Feedback. We may ask you for feedback on products you have purchased or other users with whom you have had transactions. Providing feedback is optional.

Surveys, Special Contests or Promotions. We may occasionally present a survey, special contest or promotion that is sponsored by neerg or by another company. If you choose to participate in such survey, contest or promotion, you may be required to provide certain personal information. If we plan to share your personal information with the sponsor(s) or with others, we will provide a statement to that effect in the survey, contest or promotion terms.

Computer and Connection Information. Our servers automatically collects and analyzes information provided to us by your computer (or other internet-enabled device) when you connect to and use our Site, such as browser type and version, operating system, and platform. We also collect and store your Internet Protocol ("IP") address. An IP address is a unique string of numbers that is assigned to your computer by your internet service provider. Web servers automatically identify your computer by its IP address. We may use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our Site. Your IP address also may be used to collect demographic information.

Cookies. A "cookie" is a small data file which often includes an anonymous unique identifier that is sent to your browser from a web site's computers and stored on your computer's hard drive. Cookies do not collect personally identifiable information. We use cookies to collect, store and sometimes track information for statistical purposes to improve the services we provide. We also use cookies to save your settings and to provide customizable and personalized services. You can configure your browser to accept or reject all cookies, or notify you when a cookie is set. If you reject all cookies, you will not be able to take full advantage of all features on our Site, including those that require you to "sign in." Our advertisers and partners may also use their own cookies. We do not control use of these cookies and expressly disclaim responsibility for information collected through them.

Clear Gifs (Web Beacons/Web Bugs). Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies. In contrast to cookies, which are placed on a user's hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on web pages. We may use clear gifs to track your online movements for statistical purposes to improve the services we provide. As with cookies, clear gifs are not personally identifiable. Advertisers and partners may use their own clear gifs. We do not control use of these and expressly disclaim responsibility for information collected through them.
