We at RetailMob we know you take your privacy seriously. Information about our users is an important part of our business and it is necessary that we collect certain information if users wish to utilize advanced RetailMob features. We are not in the business of selling user information to others. We share information only as described below.
What this Privacy Policy Covers
This privacy policy covers our treatment of personally identifiable information that RetailMob collects when you are on any RetailMob site (e.g. RetailMob.com, RetailSource.com, RetailClassifieds.com ), and when you use RetailMob services. This policy also covers RetailMob's treatment of any personally identifiable information that RetailMob business partners share with RetailMob as well as what happens to personal information in the unlikely event that RetailMob sells or transfers its business assets. This policy does not apply to the practices of companies that RetailMob does not own or control, or to people that RetailMob does not employ or manage.
Information Collection and Use
RetailMob is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this privacy statement.
Creating an RetailMob User ID
RetailMob enables members to create RetailMob User IDs, which allows them to control their personal information and whether it should be made public or private. This also allows members to identify themselves with their contributions to any RetailMob Web site and to manage their RetailMob e-mail-based subscriptions. During registration, a member is required to provide his or her contact information (such as name, e-mail address, state, country, and zip code), as well as some basic demographic information (such as role, title, business focus/industry, company size, purchasing influence, and company revenue). By doing so, we can provide a more personalized experience on our site. Once you register with RetailMob and sign in to our services, you are no longer anonymous to RetailMob administrators.
