Your email address is not shown in your event listing and it is not available in the source code of any of the pages. We provide an email form for inquiries -- at no charge to you -- so that you can respond to questions about your event. In order to ensure that the website is as current as possible, we use your email address to confirm your initial listing and we also send you an email periodically to verify that your event is still taking place. We occasionally include product information from our advertisers in those emails, but you may rest assured that the advertisers are never given or sold access to your name, email address or any other information about you. 1.Children Children (persons under the age of 18) are not eligible to use the the services of When is it? unsupervised and we do not knowingly accept any Event Listings or any personal information from children.

As a matter of policy, we do not sell or rent any of your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes without your explicit consent. However, the following describes some of the ways that your personal information may be disclosed in the normal scope of business to provide our services. Advertisers. We gather data across all user accounts and disclose such information in a non-personally identifiable manner to advertisers and other third parties for their marketing and promotional purposes. However, in these situations, we do not disclose to these entities any information that could be used to identify you personally. Certain information, such as your name, email address, password or credit card number are never disclosed to these third parties in a personally identifiable manner without your explicit consent. External Service Providers. There are a number of businesses and entities not associated with whenisit.com who buy paid advertising blocks on various Event Listing pages throughout the Site. We refer to these as external service providers. If you choose to use any of these business entities or services, disclose information to them, and/or grant them permission to collect information about you, then their use of your information is governed by their privacy policy. We do not disclose your personal information to external service providers unless you provide your explicit consent. Because we do not control the privacy practices of these third parties, you should evaluate their practices before deciding to use their services. Internal Service Providers for Our Operations. From time to time, we may use third parties that we refer to as internal service providers to facilitate or outsource one or more aspects of the business and service operations that we provide to you (e.g., search technology, bill collection, affiliate and rewards programs) and therefore we may provide some of your personal information directly to these internal service providers. These internal service providers are subject to confidentiality agreements with us and other legal restrictions that prohibit their use of the information we provide them for any other purpose except to facilitate the specific outsourced whenisit.com related operation, unless you have explicitly agreed or given your prior permission to them for additional uses. If you provide additional information to an internal service provider directly, then their use of your personal information is governed by their applicable privacy policy. Legal Requests. Whenisit.com cooperates with law enforcement inquiries, as well as other third parties to enforce laws to help protect you and our Site visitors and other users. Therefore, in response to a verified request by law enforcement or other government officials relating to a criminal investigation or alleged illegal activity, we can (and you authorize us to) disclose your name, city, state, telephone number, email address, and Event Listing history without a subpoena. Without limiting the above, in an effort to respect your privacy and our ability to maintain Whenisit.com as a viable resource for the public, we will not otherwise disclose your personal information to law enforcement or other government officials without a subpoena, court order or substantially similar legal procedure, except when we believe in good faith that the disclosure of information is necessary to: prevent imminent physical harm or financial loss; or report suspected illegal activity. Further, we can (and you authorize us to) disclose your name, street address, city, state, zip code, country, phone number, email, and company name to law enforcement or other government officials, as we in our sole discretion believe necessary or appropriate in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringement, piracy, or other unlawful activity. Due to the existing regulatory environment, we cannot ensure that all of your private communications and other personal information will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise described in this Privacy Policy. By way of example (without limiting the foregoing), we may be forced to disclose personal information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, or users may abuse or misuse your personal information that they collect from the Site. Therefore, although we use industry standard practices to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will always remain private. 5. Use of Whenisit.com Email Forms. You may not use our email forms to send spam or otherwise send content that would violate our User Agreement. We do not permanently store email messages or the Sent From email addresses.

Other Information Collectors. Except as otherwise expressly included in this Privacy Policy, this document only addresses the use and disclosure of information we collect from you. To the extent that you disclose your information to other parties, whether they are Event Listers on our site or other sites throughout the Internet, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the information you disclose to them. Since whenisit.com does not control the privacy policies of third parties, you are subject to the privacy policies of that third party. We encourage you to ask questions before you disclose your personal information to others. 7. Security. Your information is stored on whenisit.com's servers located in the United States. We use procedural and technical safeguards to protect your personal information against loss or theft as well as unauthorized access and disclosure to protect your privacy, including encryption, "firewalls" and Secure Socket Layers. We treat data as an asset that must be protected against loss and unauthorized access. We employ many different security techniques to protect such data from unauthorized access by users inside and outside the company. However, "perfect security" does not exist on the Internet. 8.
