IP ADDRESSES ETC.
Indbazaar.com also collects IP addresses for system administration and
to report aggregate information to our advertisers. In addition, Indbazaar.com
Mail (MySpace) includes IP addresses in outgoing mail message headers.
Indbazaar.com's primary goal in collecting personal information is to
provide you, the user, with a customized experience on our network of
sites. This includes future personalization services, interactive communications,
online shopping and many other types of services, most of which are completely
free. In order to provide free services, we display advertisements.
By knowing a little about you, Indbazaar.com is able to deliver more
relevant advertisements and content, and hence better service.
In our role of delivering targeted advertisements, Indbazaar.com plays
the middleman. Advertisers give us an advertisement and tell us the type
of audience they want to reach (for example, males over 35 years old).
Indbazaar.com takes the advertisement and displays it to users meeting
that criterion. In this process, the advertiser never has access to individual
account information. Only Indbazaar.com has access to individual accounts.
This kind of advertisement targeting is done with banner ads as well as
promotional email through Indbazaar.com mail. You will only receive special
offers via email from Indbazaar.com if you have indicated in your account
preferences that you would like to receive them.
Indbazaar.com does research on our user's demographics, interests, and
behaviour based on the information provided to us upon registration, during
a promotion, from our server log files or from surveys. We do this to
better understand and serve our users. This research is compiled and analyzed
on an aggregated basis. Indbazaar.com may share this aggregated data with
advertisers or business partners.
When you are on an Indbazaar.com site and are asked for personal information,
you are sharing that information with Indbazaar.com alone, unless it is
specifically stated otherwise. If data is being collected and/or maintained
by any company other than Indbazaar.com, you will be notified prior to
the time of the data collection or transfer. If you do not want your data
to be shared, you can choose not to allow the transfer by not using that
particular service.
Promotions that run on Indbazaar.com may be sponsored by companies other
than Indbazaar.com or may be co-sponsored by Indbazaar.com and another
company. Some or all data collected during a promotion may be shared with
the sponsor. If data is being shared, you will be notified prior to the
time of data collection or transfer. You can decide not to participate
in the promotion if you don't want your data to be shared. Currently,
most Indbazaar.com promotions are limited to Indian residents.
