2. HOW AGGREGATE AND COOKIES INFORMATION ARE USED
We track user traffic patterns throughout the Website. We break down overall usage statistics according to a user's demographics, domain name, browser type, and MIME type by reading this information from the browser string (information contained in a user's browser). We sometimes track and catalog the search terms which users enter in our "Search" function. The tracking information helps us to determine which areas of our Website users like and do not like based on traffic to those areas. In addition, we track your entries, submissions, and status in connection with your participation in the Website as a Service Provider or Service User. We use information provided by your computer's cookies to track our users' interests. We do this so we can improve the website, and see which parts of it our users like most.
We use traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being used. This helps us analyze data about webpage traffic and improve our Website in order to tailor it to Website users' needs. We only use this information for statistical analysis purposes and then the data is removed from the system. Overall, cookies help us provide you with a better Website experience, by enabling us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not. Cookies generally do not permit us to personally identify you.
3. GENERAL USE
We may also use any of the above-referenced types of information that we gather to: (a) resolve disputes, (c) troubleshoot problems with the Website and/or Services, (d) when legally required or at Tanzio's discretion to cooperate with law enforcement agencies in any investigation of alleged illegal activity on the Website or on the Internet, (e) enforce our Terms of Use, (f) customize, measure, and improve the Website's content and design, and (g) compare personal information collected through the Website and Services to verify its accuracy with personal information collected from third parties.

C. Electronic Newsletters, Invitations, Polls and Surveys
At our sole discretion, Tanzio may offer any of the following free services on the Website, which you may select to use or receive at your option. Certain of the following services may require you to provide additional personal information as detailed below:
1. ELECTRONIC NEWSLETTERS
We may offer a free electronic newsletter to users. We will gather the email addresses of users who sign up for Tanzio for the newsletter mailing list. Users may remove themselves from this mailing list by opting out of receiving newsletters during the registration process, by following the link provided in each newsletter that points users to a subscription management page where the user can unsubscribe from receiving newsletters or by changing their preferences in their Profile Settings page. You can sign up to receive newsletters from Tanzio if you'd like. You can always opt out of them.
2. "SEND TO A FRIEND"
Our Website users can voluntarily choose to electronically forward a link, page, or document to someone else by clicking "send to a friend." To do so, the user must provide his or her email address, as well as the e-mail address of the recipient.

We may offer interactive polls to users so they can easily share their opinions with other users and see what our audience thinks about important issues, Services, and/or the Website. Opinions or other responses to polls are aggregated and are not identifiable to any particular user. We may use a system to "tag" users after they have voted, so they can vote only once on a particular question. This tag is not correlated with information about individual users. If we poll our users, we won't personally identify you with your responses.
4. SURVEYS
We may conduct user surveys from time to time to better target our content to our Website users. We will not share individual responses from these surveys with any third party. If we conduct a survey of our users, Tanzio will not share the result with any third party.
D. Children's Privacy
1. Consistent with the Federal Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA), Tanzio endeavors not to collect or maintain any personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13. The Website and Services are not intended for anyone under the age of 13. Tanzio recognizes the privacy interests of children, and Tanzio encourages parents and guardians to take an active role in their children's online activities and interests. Law requires that we can't collect any information from anyone under 13 years old. You shouldn't be using Tanzio unless you're 18 anyway.
E. Security
1. We employ procedural and technological security measures, consistent with industry practice, which are reasonably designed to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access or disclosure. Tanzio may use encryption, passwords, and physical security measures to help protect your personal information against unauthorized access and disclosure. However, as you probably know, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications or defeat these measures and other users may abuse or misuse your personal information or use it for improper purposes. Therefore, we do not promise and cannot guarantee, and thus you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will not be collected and used by others. Tanzio is not responsible for the unauthorized use by third parties of information you post or otherwise make available. We do our best to keep all of your personal information secure. We do this by using encryption, passwords, and physical security at our offices. However, we can't guarantee that an intruder won't break into our systems and access your information. We'll do our best to make sure this doesn't happen.
F. Disclosure
We will not sell or lease your personal information to third parties unless we have your permission or are required to do so by law. We may also make your personal information available in the following circumstances: We won't sell or disclose your personal information to anyone unless you allow us to do so, we are required to do so by law, or we are bought by another company (in which case we will turn over the information only to the new company).
1. INFORMATION DISCLOSED TO NON-AFFILIATED THIRD PARTIES
We may disclose your personal information to prevent an emergency, protect or enforce our rights, enforce our Terms of Use and/or to protect the safety of users of our Website and our Services or protect or enforce the rights of a third party, or as required by law.
2. INFORMATION DISCLOSED TO THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS
We may contract with various third parties for the provision and maintenance of the Website, Services and our business operations, and Tanzio may need to share your personally identifiable information [and data generated by cookies and aggregate information] with these vendors and service agencies. For example, we may provide your personally identifiable information to a credit card processing company to process your payment. The vendors and service agencies will not receive any right to use your personally identifiable information beyond what is necessary to perform its obligations to provide the Services to you.
3. INFORMATION DISCLOSED TO LAW ENFORCEMENT OR GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS
We will disclose your personal information, such as your name, city, state, telephone number, email address, user ID history, quoting and listing history, and fraud complaints, to law enforcement or other government officials if we are required to do so by law, regulation or other government authority or otherwise in cooperation with an investigation of a governmental authority.
4. IN THE EVENT OF A CHANGE OF CONTROL OR BANKRUPTCY
In the event that Tanzio undergoes a change in control, including, without limitation, a merger or sale of all or substantially all of Tanzio's assets to which this Website relates or other corporate reorganization in which Tanzio participates, and is thus merged with or acquired by a third party entity (a "Successor"), Tanzio hereby reserves the right to transfer the personally identifiable information we have collected from the users of the Website and/or Services to such Successor.
In addition, in the event of Tanzio's bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, or assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the application or laws or equitable principles affecting creditors' rights generally, Tanzio may not be able to control how your personal information is transferred, used, or treated and reserves the right to transfer the personally identifiable information we have collected from the users of the Website and/or Services to non-affiliated third parties in such event.
