cookies; Hyground and third parties' use of
cookies; and how you may disable such cookies.

of companies that Hyground does not own or
control or to people that Hyground does not
employ or manage.
1. INFORMATION COLLECTION

- Hyground collects personally identifying
information when you register for a Hyground
account, when you use certain Hyground products
or services, when you visit Hyground pages,
and when you enter promotions or sweepstakes.
- When you register with Hyground we ask
for your personal data. Once you register
with Hyground and sign in to our services,
you are not anonymous to us.
- Hyground also automatically receives and
records information on our server logs from
your browser including your IP address, Hyground
cookie information and the page you requested.

purposes: to customise the advertising and
content you see, based on the details given

Hyground, to fulfill your requests for certain
products and services, and to contact you
about specials, new products and for customer
feedback.
2. INFORMATION SHARING
AND DISCLOSURE
- Hyground will not sell or rent your personally
identifiable information to anyone.
- Hyground may send personally identifiable
information about you to other companies or
people when:
- We have your consent to share the information;
- We need to share your information to
provide the product or service you have
requested;
- We need to send the information to
companies who work on behalf of Hyground
to provide a product or service to you
(unless we tell you differently, these
companies do not have any right to use
the personally identifiable information
we provide to them beyond what is necessary
to assist us);
- We respond to subpoenas, court orders,
any legitimate request by authorities
with which we must comply or legal process;
- Hyground may transfer information about
you if Hyground acquires, or is acquired
by or merged with, another company. In
this event, Hyground will notify you before
information about you is transferred and
becomes subject to a different privacy
policy.
3. COOKIES
- Hyground may set and access Hyground cookies
on your computer.
- Hyground allows other companies that are
presenting advertisements on some of our pages
to set and access their cookies on your computer.
Other companies' use of their cookies is subject
to their own privacy policies, not this one.
Advertisers or other companies do not have
access to Hyground cookies.
- Hyground uses web beacons to access our
cookies within our network of web sites, in
connection with Hyground products and services
and to track your activities on our advertisers’
websites.
A cookie is a small amount of data, which
often includes an anonymous unique identifier
and that is sent to your browser from a web
site's computers and stored on your computer's
hard drive.
Each web site can send its own cookie to your
browser if your browser's preferences allow
it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser
only permits a web site to access the cookies
it has already sent to you, not the cookies
sent to you by other sites.
4. CHOICES ABOUT COOKIES
- You can configure your browser to accept
all cookies, reject all cookies, or notify
you when a cookie is set. Each browser is
different, so check the "Help" menu
of your browser to learn how to change your
cookie preferences.
- If you reject all cookies, you will not
be able to use Hyground products or services
that require you to "sign in" and
you may not be able to take full advantage
of all offerings. However, many Hyground products
and services do not require that you accept
cookies.
5. HYGROUND’S
PRACTICES REGARDING COOKIES
Hyground uses its own cookies
for a number of purposes, including to:
- Access your information when you "sign
in," so that we can provide you with
customised content.
- Keep track of preferences you specify while
you are using Hyground's services.
- Display the most appropriate advertising
banners, based on your interests submitted
by you at registration and activity including
pages viewed on Hyground.
- Estimate and report our total audience
size and traffic.
- Conduct research to improve Hyground's
content and services.
- Require you to re-enter your Hyground password
after a certain period of time has elapsed
to protect you against others accidentally
accessing your account contents.
6. OTHER COMPANIES' COOKIES ON THE HYGROUND
WEBSITE
- Please note that Hyground allows other companies
that are presenting advertisements on some
of our pages to set and access their cookies
