Ez2FindMe is a free search engine for businesses and individuals based on products, services, expertise, location and other relevant factors. Users associate keywords (e.g. products, services, skills, profession, expertise, languages, etc.) to their profile in order to make it easy for others to search for them. While other online directories allow users to locate individuals and expertise, Ez2FindMe enables users to refine and tailor their search based on these keywords.

The following privacy practices apply only to www.ez2findme.com.

Ez2FindMe believes in following the most up to date privacy policies on the world wide web today, to contribute to furthering consumer trust and use of the internet and world wide web.

On this registration form, Business members are required to provide company name, first name, last name, city and state, login name, password and email address. Individual members are required to provide first name, last name, city and state, login name, password and email address. This information allows the system to uniquely identify you on our system.

Cookies

Cookies, small text files stored on your hard disk, contain data you provide or information about the choices you make when visiting a Web site. Ez2findMe uses cookies to understand where users spend their time on the site and to continue to enhance the experience for our users. Cookies do NOT track personally identifiable information.

Log Files

Like most standard Web site servers we use log files. This includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses, etc. are not linked to personally identifiable information.

Legal Disclaimer

Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on our Web site.

Sharing

We share aggregated demographic information with our partners and advertisers. This is not linked to any personal information that can identify any individual person.

We partner with third parties to provide specific services. If the user signs up for these services, he/she will have the option to choose what information is shared with the third party.

These third parties are not allowed to use personally identifiable information except for the purpose of providing these services.

Links

At the present time we do not link to any third party sites. However, this may change in the future.

Surveys & Contests


From time-to-time our site requests information from users via surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information. Information requested may include contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code, age level). Contact information will be used to notify the winners and award prizes. Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site.

Security

This website takes every precaution to protect users' information. Ez2FindMe uses industry standard practices to safeguard the confidentiality of your personal identifiable information using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). We use the latest Thawte SSL encryption to ensure all your personal details are safe. In addition, all passwords are encrypted in our database as a result no one, not even we can see your password.

Thawte makes the following statement regarding their SSL certificates:
Authentic Sites use Thawte SSL Web Server Certificates to offer secure communications by encrypting all data to and from the site. Thawte has checked and verified the company registration documents and the site's registered domain name. This information is included in the SSL certificate that we issue. This enables you to check the site's validity yourself. Always check a site's certificate before entering any sensitive information.

If you have any questions about the security at our website, you can send an email to security@ez2findme.com.

Invite-A-Friend

If a user elects to invite friends to join our site, we ask them for the friend’s email address. Ez2FindMe will automatically send the friend a one-time email inviting them to join the site. Ez2FindMe stores this information for the sole purpose of sending this one-time email and tracking the success of our referral program. The friend may contact Ez2FindMe Customer Care to request the removal of this information from our database.

Notification of Changes


If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on our Homepage so our users will always be aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users by way of an email. At that point, users will be provided options to choose from before their information will be used in this different manner. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected.

Business Transitions


In the event Ez2FindMe goes through a business transition, such as a merger, being acquired by another company, or selling a portion of its assets, users' personal information will, in most instances, be part of the assets transferred. Users will be notified via email prior to a change of ownership or control of their personal information. If as a result of the business transition, the users’ personally identifiable information will be used in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection they will be given choice consistent with our notification of changes section. Members unhappy with the acquisition may then terminate their membership at Ez2FindMe.
