Privacy Policy

Your privacy is critically important to us. At Lists with Friends we have a few fundamental principles:

We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it. (We can’t stand services that ask you for things like your gender or income level for no apparent reason.)
We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the on-going operation of one of our services.
In our sharing services, we aim to make it as simple as possible for you to control what’s visible to the public, and kept private.

Below is our privacy policy which incorporates these goals. If you have questions about deleting or correcting your personal data please contact our support team. It is Lists with Friends’s policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect while operating our websites.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Lists with Friends collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Lists with Friends’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Lists with Friends’s visitors use its Service. From time to time, Lists with Friends may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Lists with Friends also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users. Lists with Friends only discloses logged in user IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Lists with Friends’s websites choose to interact with Lists with Friends in ways that require Lists with Friends to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Lists with Friends gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for an account at Lists with Friends.com to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Lists with Friends are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Lists with Friends collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Lists with Friends. Lists with Friends does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

If you are a user of a Lists with Friends website or service, Lists with Friends may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Lists with Friends and our products. We primarily use our various product blogs to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Lists with Friends takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
