PERSONAL INFORMATION COLLECTED

“Personal Information” is information through which you can be identified. Providing your personal information to Quester® is each visitor/user/customer’s choice. Personal Information that Quester® may collect from you may include, but not be limited to your name and e-mail address(es) and any other information that you voluntarily provide. Personal Information volunteered by a visitor/user/customer is used by Quester® to ensure appropriate legal use of Quester®’s services, provide notification to its visitors/users/customers about updates to Quester®’s Website and services, and to help provide technical and support for Quester®’s services to its visitors/users/customers.

Your Personal Information may be collected from our Website, through the following methods: e-mail and/or through online forms you complete, requests for newsletters, and through your activities with Quester®. Personal Information that Quester® collects depends on the nature of your activities, including, but not limited to, whether you join our interest/mailing list, and/or fill out your information in our Contact Us web page. For example, Personal Information submitted by you on the “Contact Us” web page is used by Quester® to enhance this Website or to reply to questions/comments made by the visitor/user/customer.

Quester® may also use your Personal Information, or a portion thereof, to send you marketing materials, and/or Quester® newsletters, unless you notify Quester® that you do not wish to receive such materials.

Quester® may also disclose your Personal Information if: (1) your information is subject to disclosure in response to judicial or governmental subpoenas, warrants, or orders served on Quester®; (2) your information is subject to disclosure to protect Quester®’s rights or property, to enforce the provisions of this Privacy Policy and/or Quester®’s Terms of Use, and/or to prevent harm to yourself or other; and (3) your information is subject to disclosure or transfer if Quester® or its business is sold or offered for sale to another entity or individual(s), a petition for relief is filed under U.S. Bankruptcy laws for or against Quester®, or if Quester® becomes subject to an order of appointment of a trustee or receiver. Quester® reserves the right to release and/or use all information contained within its databases, access logs or other records concerning you if you violate this Privacy Policy, our Terms of Use or other rules, policies, notices, agreements or guidelines, or intentionally or unintentionally partake (or are reasonably suspected of partaking) in any illegal activity, including, but not limited to, hacking, even without a subpoena, warrant or other court order, and to release such information in response to court and governmental orders, civil subpoenas, discovery requests and as otherwise required by law, and/or to initiate our own legal proceedings. Quester® cooperates with law enforcement agencies in identifying those who may be using the Website (or any part thereof) for illegal activities. Quester® also reserves the right to report any suspected illegal activity to law enforcement individuals or entities for investigation or prosecution.

Quester® may purchase a business or sell one or more of its businesses and your Personal Information may be transferred as a part of the purchase or sale. In the event that Quester® purchases a business, the Personal Information received with that business would be treated in accordance with this Privacy Policy, if it is practicable and permissible to do so. In the event that Quester® sells a business, Quester® will attempt to include provisions in the selling contract requiring the purchaser to treat your Personal Information in the same manner required by this Privacy Policy. Thus, any of your opt out requests will not affect Quester®’s right to transfer your information to a purchaser in these circumstances. Quester® reserves the right to transfer your Personal Information to a third party in the event of a transfer of all or substantially all of Quester®’s assets to a third party, provided that the third party agrees to adhere to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
Unless legally required to do so, Quester® will not sell, rent or otherwise disclose your Personal information to any outside company or organization, except as described herein. This Privacy Policy excludes data that may be stored or transmitted to or from the Internet Company hosting this Website.

CHILDREN

Quester® does not knowingly solicit or collect information from children (defined as minors younger than thirteen (13) years of age). If you are the parent or guardian of a child under the age of eighteen (18) or the legal age of contract majority, and have authorized your child to use your computer, we urge you to instruct your child never to give out his or her real name, address, phone number, e-mail address or other personally identifying information while on this Website. There are no computer applications on this Website which allow for the determination of the age of a visitor/user/customer. All information volunteered to Quester® will be treated the same as information given by an adult. Quester® recommends that the Internet browsing behavior of any child should be carefully supervised by a responsible adult at all times.

This Website contains several links to other websites. Neither Quester®, nor any of its officers, directors, partners, affiliates, subsidiaries, employees, agents, representatives, vendors or suppliers of Quester® is responsible for the content, privacy policies, products, services, reliability, viewpoint, or accuracy of information on any such websites. We do not control and shall not be responsible for the collection of personal information by third party websites, including websites owned or controlled by our preferred Financial Partners, participating marketing research firms or focus group facilities, vendors and/or websites not controlled or authorized by Quester®.

SECURITY

The security and confidentiality of your information is extremely important to us. We have implemented technical, administrative, and physical security measures to protect your information from unauthorized access and improper use. Quester® makes access to your Personal Information subject to certain security measures, including technological controls such as “firewalls,” in accordance with industry standards. When the use of a Quester® web page involves the transmission of Personal Information or confidential information of Quester®, Quester® uses Secure Socket Layer (“SSL”) technology to establish a secure connection between your computer and Quester®. SSL allows the transmission of encrypted information from your computer to Quester® and back again, and is currently the industry standard for Internet platform security. From time to time, we review our security procedures in order to consider appropriate new technology and methods.

Please be aware though that no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so while Quester® strives to protect your Personal Information, Quester® cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information that you voluntarily give to Quester®.

Quester® reserves the right to monitor all network traffic to this Website to identify and/or block unauthorized attempts or intrusions to upload or change information or cause damage to this Website in any manner. Anyone using this Website expressly consents to such monitoring.
