You can browse some of the pages of our website without logging in hence without revealing any personal information about yourself. Once you login, you are not anonymous to us anymore. It is hereby understood that when you chose to provide us with personal information at the time of registration, you consent to the transfer and storage of your personal information on our hosting servers.

• Information about you that might come from other companies, such as demographic and navigation data and other supplemental information from third parties.

Marketing
We don't and won't sell or rent your personal information to third parties for any purpose without your explicit consent. However we, ourselves, have the right to combine your information that we have, with the information we collect from other companies, and use it to improve and personalize our services or websites. You might receive occasional email communications from us but you will be given directions in the email on how to change/stop such email communications.

Use
Our primary purpose in collecting personal information is to provide you with a secure, and efficient buying or selling experience. You agree that we may use your personal information to:

• Provide services and support you might request
  
• Resolve issues between buyers and sellers, or to troubleshoot any problems
  
• Prevent potentially prohibited or illegal activities, or to enforce our User Agreement
  
• Customize, measure and improve our services, content and advertising
  
• Inform you about our new or existing services

Our Disclosure of Your Information
We reserve the right to disclose your personal information to respond to legal requirements, enforce our policies, resolve issues between buyers and sellers, or to protect anyone's rights, property, or safety. Such information will be disclosed in accordance with applicable laws and regulations of State of Texas.

We may also share your personal information with:

• Members of AntibodyQuotes.com or the parent company to provide joint content and services
  
• Service providers under contract who help with our business operations (i.e. fraud investigations, bill collection, affiliate and rewards programs, etc)
  
• Other third parties to whom you explicitly ask us to send your information to (or about whom you are otherwise explicitly notified and consent to when using a specific service).
  
• Law enforcement or other governmental officials, in response to a verified request relating to a criminal investigation or alleged illegal activity. In such events, we will disclose information relevant to the investigation, such as name, city, state, zip code, telephone number, email address, User ID history, IP address, fraud complaints, listing or pricing history, etc.
  
• Other business entities, should we plan to merge with or be acquired by that business entity. (Should such a combination occur, we will require that the new combined entity follow this privacy policy with respect to your personal information. If your personal information will be used contrary to this policy, you will receive prior notice.)

Without limiting the above, in an effort to respect your privacy and our ability to keep the community free from bad actors, we will not otherwise disclose your personal information to law enforcement, other government officials, or other third parties 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 to report suspected illegal activity.

Using Information from AntibodyQuotes.com

Cookies
We use "cookies" (small files placed on your hard drive) on certain of our pages to help analyze our web page flow; customize our services, content and advertising; measure promotional effectiveness, and promote trust and safety. For more information about why we use cookies, see Cookies, Web Beacons, and Your Privacy.

A few important things you should know about cookies are that:

• We offer certain features that are available only through the use of cookies.
  
  
• We use cookies to help identify you and maintain your signed-in status.
  
  
• Most cookies are "session cookies," meaning that they are automatically deleted from your hard drive at the end of a session.
  
  
• You are always free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, although doing so may interfere with your use of some of our sites or services.
  
  
• You may encounter cookies from third parties on certain pages of the sites that we do not control. (For example, if you view a web page created by another user, there may be a cookie placed by that web page.)

No Spam, Spyware or Spoofing
We and our users do not tolerate spam. Make sure to set your AntibodyQuotes.com notification preferences so we communicate to you as you prefer. You are not licensed to add other AntibodyQuotes.com users, even a user who has purchased an item from you, to your mailing list (email or physical mail) without their express consent. To report AntibodyQuotes.com-related spam or spoof emails to AntibodyQuotes.com, please forward the email to spam@AntibodyQuotes.com or spoof@AntibodyQuotes.com.  You may not use our communication tools to send spam or otherwise send content that would violate our User Agreement. We automatically scan and may manually filter messages to check for spam, viruses, phishing attacks and other malicious activity or illegal or prohibited content, but we do not permanently store messages sent through these tools. If you send an email to an email address that is not registered in our community (via Refer-a-Friend or other tools), we do not permanently store that email or use that email address for any marketing purpose. We do not rent or sell these email addresses.

Account Protection
Your password is the key to your account. Use unique numbers, letters and special characters, and do not disclose your AntibodyQuotes.com password to anyone. If you do share your password or your personal information with others, remember that you are responsible for all actions taken in the name of your account. If you lose control of your password, you may lose substantial control over your personal information and may be subject to legally binding actions taken on your behalf. Therefore, if your password has been compromised for any reason, you should immediately notify AntibodyQuotes.com and change your password.

Accessing, Reviewing and Changing Your Personal Information
You can see, review and change most of your personal information by signing on to AntibodyQuotes.com. Generally, we will not manually modify your personal information because it is very difficult to verify your identity remotely. You must promptly update your personal information if it changes or is inaccurate. Once you make a public posting, you may not be able to change or remove it. Upon your request, we will close your account and remove your personal information from view as soon as reasonably possible, based on your account activity and in accordance with applicable law. We do retain personal information from closed accounts to comply with law, prevent fraud, collect any fees owed, resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, assist with any investigations, enforce our AntibodyQuotes.com User Agreement, and take other actions otherwise permitted by law.

Security
Your information is stored on our servers located in the United States. We treat data as an asset that must be protected and use lots of tools (encryption, passwords, physical security, etc.) to 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, and other users may abuse or misuse your personal information that they collect from the site. Therefore, although we work very hard to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will always remain private.

Third Parties
Except as otherwise expressly included in this Privacy Policy, this document addresses only the use and disclosure of information we collect from you. If you disclose your information to others, whether they are bidders, buyers or sellers on our sites or other sites throughout the internet, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the information you disclose to them. AntibodyQuotes.com does not control the privacy policies of third parties, and you are subject to the privacy policies of those third parties where applicable. We encourage you to ask questions before you disclose your personal information to others.

General
We may amend this Privacy Policy at any time with or without notice. All amended terms take effect immediately after they are posted on our website.
