In general, Ciscomania does not collect, store, use or disclose personally identifying information except in very specific instances, such as, for example, when you enroll as an advertiser in the Services, as defined below. Whenever we collect such information, you will have a choice regarding whether to provide it, how it will be used, and to whom it will be disclosed. The instances in which Ciscomania does collect and use information are specifically described in this Privacy Policy.
Please be aware that, as part of the Services, Ciscomania provides links to Web sites operated by third parties, and also provides search results and similar services to third parties for display on their own Web sites or applications. Ciscomania is not responsible for the information collection or privacy practices or the content of those third party Web sites or applications. Also, please be aware that banner ads on Ciscomania are provided by a third party, which may collect cookies as part of the process of serving those ads. These cookies are typically used for the purpose of tracking performance of the banner ads. Ciscomania does not determine which information will be collected by that third party. Please see the paragraph below regarding Third Party Banner Ads.
Traffic or Clickstream Data. Data about traffic and usage is not personally identifying or identifiable, and is not supplemented or combined with personally identifying or identifiable information. Ciscomania may share information it collects with certain selected third parties, but only in aggregated, anonymous form. For example, we may tell an advertiser that a certain number of people visited a certain area on our Web site, or searched Web sites for the term "fly fishing." Ciscomania collects some information regarding use of the Services by observing browser functions and the files (pages) users access. For example, Ciscomania's servers collect information about the site from which you entered to enable Ciscomania to calculate and pay its affiliates, information about the most frequently searched terms to help its advertisers provide the most relevant search results, information about usage to check for fraudulent behavior or other abnormalities and to ensure that our Services are technically superior. In addition to the foregoing applications, Ciscomania uses the information (in aggregate form) to better design the Services.
Contact Information or Personally Identifying Information. Ciscomania can obtain access to your name, e-mail address and other contact information only (1) when you become an advertiser with Ciscomania, provide comments, submit a problem, or request information from Ciscomania and provide your name or return contact information, or (2) in connection with special offers or contests. Contact information provided in connection with problems, comments or requests is used only to respond to those problems, comments or requests. This information is not stored or used in connection with traffic or clickstream data and is provided to a third party only as necessary to respond to the comment, problem or request. Finally, you may choose to provide contact information, other personally identifying information, and demographic information in order to participate in optional surveys or contests, which are run for promotional purposes. Ciscomania uses such information to send you information about its products and to notify you if you win the contest. Finally, from time to time, but only with your permission, Ciscomania may provide certain of its users' registration information to selected third parties who wish to participate in special promotions offered in conjunction with Ciscomania. Users may opt-out of receiving such communications at any time by contacting Ciscomania.
