Storage of Information

For security and fraud detection purposes, Hockeyot.com (HockeyOT) requires the storage of certain pieces of information entered into any form that collects billing information, including, but not limited to, first and last name, street/billing address, city, state/province, zip code/postal code, expiration date, email address, and the agreement to the terms of service. This information does not personally identify users, by itself or in combination with other information, and is gathered to improve the performance of the website. The anonymous data collected by the Hockeyot.com website can include information such as the type of browser you are using, your IP address and the length of the visit to the website. Also, if you input testing data, we will aggregate your responses with those of other Hockeyot.com subscribers but we do not associate your response with any personally identifiable information. We may receive additional personally identifiable information from you through communications with Hockeyot.com. If so, we will use that information to fulfill your request and for aggregate reporting before deleting it from our active system. For example, if you e-mail Hockeyot.com to ask about a tool, we will use that information to give you an answer, to make sure that you are satisfied with our answer, to have a history of our service to you and to make our service better by reporting your request, without any personally identifying information, in our customer service totals. You are required to provide accurate information as well as up-to-date information when purchasing a service or subscription. Failure to do so will void all agreements between you and HockeyOT and will result in cessation of services. This information will assist us in customer support as well as fraud protection.

We may need to share your personally identifiable information with these companies. However, we will provide them with only the information necessary to perform their functions, and will not allow them to use that information for any other purposes.

In the interest of enhancing our service, we form partnerships with other web-based services. Some of these partnerships include the sharing of some of your personal information with our partners in order to extend these services to you. We require that our partners respect your privacy and not disclose your information to other organizations without your consent, but beyond that, our partners' use of your information is governed by their privacy policies.
