What personally identifiable information is collected from you

The Clueword.com may collect information in several ways from different parts of our web site.

Some personal information is gathered when you register for our mailing list. During registration, we ask for your email address taken from registration email. This information is used solely to assist you in receiving emails and word puzzles. Once you register you are no longer anonymous to Clueword.com - you  are able to take full advantage of the offerings of the Clueword.com.

In addition to registration we may ask you for personal information at other times.  If you contact us, we may keep a record of that correspondence. Every page within the Clueword.com includes a link to this Privacy Policy.

How your information is used

The primary goal of the Clueword.com in collecting personal information is to provide you, the user, with a customized experience.

Who is collecting your information

When you are asked for personal information on the Clueword.com, you are sharing that information with the Clueword.com alone, unless it is specifically stated otherwise such as sharing of user emails with a mailing list contractor. Mailing list contractors are selected only if they respect Clueword.com privacy policy.

With whom your information may be shared

As a general rule, Clueword.com will not disclose any of your personally identifiable information except when we have your permission or under special circumstances, such as when we believe in good faith that the law requires it or under the circumstances described below. Please see the Terms of Service or Use Agreements for each of our products and services for more detailed information about how your personal information may be shared.

Clueword.com may disclose account information in special cases when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating the Terms of Service of Clueword.com or may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) the rights or property of the Clueword.com, other users of the Clueword.com, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities. Clueword.com may disclose or access account information when we believe in good faith that the law requires it and for administrative and other purposes that we deem necessary to maintain, service, and improve our products and services.

What choices are available to you regarding collection, use, and distribution of your information

If you choose not to register or provide personal information, you can still use most of  Clueword.com, but you will not be able to access areas or use features that require registration.

Clueword.com does not sell or rent user information to anyone. We will notify you at the time of data collection or transfer if your data will be shared with a third party and you will always have the option of not permitting the transfer. If you do not wish to allow your data to be shared, you can choose not to use a particular service.

The kind of security precautions that are in place to protect the loss, misuse, or alteration of your information

Other than the administrator of the Clueword.com or other authorized personnel or subcontractors of Clueword.com, you are the only person who has access to your personal information. 

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, Clueword.com cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our online services, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our systems.

How Clueword.com protects children's privacy

Clueword.com is a general audience web site. Children should always ask a parent for permission before sending personal information to anyone online. Clueword.com does not share personal information about users under the age of 13 with third parties and we do not sell or rent personal information about any of our users, regardless of age.

What else you should know about your online privacy

Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information online - for example in ads that you post or through email - that information can be collected and used by others. In short, if you post personal information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return.

Ultimately, you are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your passwords and/or any account information. Please be careful and responsible whenever you're online.
