General: Contactmefree.com is designed to allow users to post profiles so that other users may send messages to them, subject to the restrictions defined in our Terms of Service. These profiles contain information about the user, including text written and submitted by users, and may optionally contain photographs of the user that are submitted by the user. As a user posting a profile, you control what information you choose to disclose about yourself and what information you choose to keep private. When you submit information to your profile, you are specifically authorizing Contactmefree.com to publish this information on our site. If you do not wish for this information to be published in this way, please do not include it in your profile.
Information that we do NOT request: We think that the best way to protect your online privacy is to limit the type of information that we request from you. Accordingly, when you create an account and profile, we do NOT ask for your name, address, phone number, Social Security number, or financial information, although you may post your name in your profile so that others can contact you by searching for your name.

| Cookie information |
|
A cookie is a text file stored on your computer's hard drive that can be used to identify your computer and give information about you. Internet users are often very concerned about the privacy and security implications of cookies (*see below), so we use cookies only as a convenience for you so that our server can recognize your computer. This can save you the bother of re-entering your username when you use our site in the future. If you do not want our server to automatically recognize your computer, do not check the box next to "Remember my username on this computer" on the login page. We do not use cookies to collect private information from any user.
*According to an independent source (PC World magazine, April 2006, page 140), a cookie is generally not a threat to your privacy because it typically exchanges information only with the site that placed it. |

We will NOT intentionally rent, sell, share, trade, or otherwise transfer any of this information about you to unaffiliated third parties without your consent unless that information is necessary to prevent an emergency, to prevent or investigate activities that are illegal or suspected to be illegal, to protect our rights or the rights of a third party, or if we are compelled to do so in response to a court order, subpoena, or other legal action. We will transfer this information if Contactmefree.com is acquired by or merged with another company, but we will notify you before your information is transferred if the new privacy policy differs from this one in the way it protects your personal information.
We may sometimes post links to other web sites on Contactmefree.com. Please note that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites.
A Special Note About Minors: Minors (people under the age of 18) are not eligible to use Contactmefree.com, so we ask that minors do not submit any personal information to us.
A Special Note About Dating Safety from the Founder of ContactMeFree: I take dating safety very seriously because my father was killed because he participated in online dating. Briefly, here is the story. He thought that he was going to meet an attractive woman. Instead, he was set up by two men, one of whom apparently distracted him while the other clubbed him from behind, crushing his skull. The thugs dumped his body in a swamp, where it was discovered ten days later. The police said the motive for the murder was to steal his truck, which they sold—obviously, these two Neanderthals were so stupid they did not realize that automobiles are easily traceable via their vehicle identification numbers (VIN). My Dad was smart, a US Army veteran skilled with firearms, and two of his many jobs were being a private investigator and later a soldier of fortune when he was a colonel in the Honduran Army. So if he can be killed during a date gone awry, it isn't surprising that naive, gullible, and overly trusting young women can fall victim to predators. I realize that one cannot live a full life without taking some risks, but please be careful.
Changes to our Privacy Policy: If we significantly change how we treat your personal information, we will notify you by e-mail or we will place a prominent notice on this site. |
