Your privacy is protected at Gay People with Pets. You control your personal information and you can end your membership at any time. We will never disclose your personal information to any third party unless you expressly tell us to.
We are an Introduction Network where people help people find friends and where people with pets meet up to discuss their pet issues.

Many of the ways in which you interact with our site allow us to learn more about you. We collect both personal and public information when you become a member of Gay People with Pets.

Personal information includes your email address and password. This information is considered personally identifiable and will not be displayed on our site.

Public information is information that helps us to personalise your experience. Public information may include, but is not limited to, member-submitted information such as your username, first name, gender, age, height, lifestyle information, geographic location, and photo. Much of this information is optional, and meant to be seen by members to support the function of the site as a online dating service.

We collect and store certain technical and other information about the online activities of our users — whether or not they are registered — on an aggregated (or collective) basis. This includes your IP address, browser type, and operating system. Gay People with Pets does not use this information to identify you or to match it with your activities on the site. We do, however, track the number of people who view each page, and other site usage data, in order to learn which features are the most popular and thereby improve our service. We also record statistical information collected on our site to better understand our audience. This information is recorded as anonymous group statistical information and is not connected to any personal information unless you register as an Gay People with Pets member.

Gay People with Pets may use URL tracking in the emails sent to you. When you open such email messages, our system may record the following data: the time you viewed the email and the URLs that you clicked on from that email. URL tracking may use cookies.

We collect credit card information only from those who choose to participate in our pay services and we maintain a record of all transactions.

Gay People with Pets never discloses your personal information to any third party unless you have given us your express permission. Gay People with Pets uses the public information you voluntarily give us to better understand who you are and provide you with customised services.

Gay People with Pets may use aggregated, statistical information to describe our audience, services, and to develop partnerships with third parties (i.e., anyone or any entity who is not an employee, agent, or subsidiary of Gay People with Pets). We would not disclose our members' individual data.

Gay People with Pets uses public information such as your username, first name, gender, age, height, preference/lifestyle information and geographic location for searching and matching purposes.

Gay People with Pets uses your email address to verify membership and when forwarding anonymous emails to you to from other members.

Your mail address may also be used in private correspondence with you for customer service issues. Financial information that is collected is used to bill you for products and services. All other private information submitted by you is confidential and will not be disclosed except as required by law or to protect members of Gay People with Pets. All private information can be updated or deleted by you at any time.

Our business is about building a long-term relationship with you. To build that trust, we know that as you spend time on our site, your personal information must remain within your control. Therefore, unless you give us your express permission, except if we believe in good faith that the law requires it, that disclosure is necessary to respond to a warrant, or court order, or to protect the rights of Gay People with Pets or others, we will not share your personal information with unauthorised third parties. We consider your personal information to be exactly that and we will do our best to protect it!

Your Gay People with Pets profile is password protected so that you are the only member who has access to this information. We recommend that you do not divulge your password to anyone. To ensure that you've logged out of your account, please remember to close your browser window when you have finished your visit. This is to ensure that others cannot access your personal information and correspondence, especially if you share a computer with someone else or are using a computer in a public place, such as a library or Internet cafe.

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be absolutely secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, Gay People with Pets cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our online products or services, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we make our best effort, including the use of firewalls, to ensure the security of your information on our systems.

Like most sites on the Web, Gay People with Pets uses cookies to store and track information about you when you're on our site so that we can better provide personalised services that better match your needs and interests. We also use cookies to assess which features on the site are popular among our users.

A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a Web server and stored on your computer's hard drive, then sent back to the server by your browser each time you access certain sections of the site. Cookies allow you to store your email address without having to re-enter it.

Note that the advertising networks serving ads on Gay People with Pets may also user their own cookies. Gay People with Pets does not control these cookies or the data collection practices of these companies. For more information about their separate privacy policies, you should contact the third-party advertising network directly.

When you provide personal financial and other personally identifiable information to Paypal, Gay People with Pets e-commerce partner, , this transaction will occur on Paypal's site, not Gay People with Pets. As such, the financial and personally identifiable information you provide is collected by and controlled by the Privacy Policy of Paypal. In the event we partner with another e-commerce partner then the same terms apply for their policies.

This policy may change from time to time. If we make any material changes to the policy in the future with regard to how we use your information, we will notify you on our homepage and in our email newsletters.

Like almost every Web site, Gay People with Pets may be accessed by an international audience. By visiting our Web site and providing us with data, you acknowledge and agree that your personal information may be processed for the purposes identified in this policy. In addition, such data may be stored on servers located outside your resident jurisdiction, which may have less stringent privacy practices than your own. By providing us with your data, you consent to the transfer of such data.

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. The few Gay People with Pets employees who have access to personal data are trained to comply with the above privacy policy and made aware of any updates or modifications.
