This Privacy Policy describes how we collect and use the personally identifiable information you provide on our Sites and in our mobile applications. It also describes the choices available to you regarding our use of your personally identifiable information and how you can access and update that information.
Your Information
When you sign up for any of our services we will ask you to provide contact information for your convenience as well as legal reasons. This will include name, home address, phone number, e-mail addresses and payment details (credit or debit card and PayPal).
If you need support, our staff may need to know information to solve the problem such as operating system, browser software and editing software.
When you visit this website we record certain information using Google Analytics such as your location, browser version, IP address, screen resolution, operating system and flash support — so we can continue to provide the most convenient web site for all our visitors.
Our website is protected by a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL). This helps prevent eavesdropping on our website.
How Your Information Is Used
We will use your personal identifiable information in the following ways:
(i) To improve our service and the marketing of our service. This could include using your demographic location to improve targeting of our website and customise your visit.
(ii) To contact you and announce special offers, general announcements and news. You can opt out of receiving these emails at any time by following the instructions at the bottom of the e-mail.
We will NEVER provide your personally identifiable information to any persons other than: a law enforcement or regulatory agency at their request, or third parties who provide services on our behalf such as payment processing — and only if they agree not to misuse this information.
We do not under any circumstances give away or sell your information to any third parties. Our service is not available to anyone under the age of 13, and we will never intentionally maintain information about anyone under the age of 13.
Log Files
As is true of most websites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data.
We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to analyse trends, administer the site, track users' movements around the site and gather demographic information about our user base as a whole.
IP addresses are tied to personally identifiable information only to prevent and block abusers — such as members who violate our Terms of Service.
We use a third-party tracking service that uses cookies and log files to track non-personally identifiable information about visitors to our site in the aggregate, to determine how our users navigate through our website and to know how many users are using our services demographically. We do not share this information with outside parties.
Cookies
A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user's computer for record-keeping purposes. We use cookies on this site. We do not link the information we store in cookies to any personally identifiable information you submit while on our site.
We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies make it easier for you to navigate our site and expire when you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time.
We set a persistent cookie to store your passwords so you do not have to enter them more than once. Persistent cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site.
If you reject cookies, you may still use our site, but you will be asked to enter your username and password again every time you close your browser or your session has timed out.
Communications From The Site
When we receive email, we use return email addresses to reply with the information requested. Such addresses are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with outside parties.
When supplying contact information to HostFe.com you can indicate your preference to receive (or not receive) information and updates about our services by logging in to your account and going to your member profile page.
You will receive a confirmation email from us when placing an order on our site and paying through the payment gateway.
Newsletter
We provide you the opportunity to 'opt-in' and 'opt-out' of our newsletter at any time. Our newsletter is sent every month and will contain useful information and any offers we may have.
If you no longer wish to receive our newsletter and promotional communications, you may opt-out of receiving them at any time from your member profile page.
Personally Identifiable Information
HostFe.com does not share, sell, rent, or trade personally identifiable information with third parties. We never use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described within this privacy policy.
How You Can Access / Correct Your Information
You can access all your personally identifiable information that we collect by logging into your password-protected HostFe.com account and selecting to update your 'My Details'.

Security & Changes to This Policy
The security of your personal information is important to us. We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. This website is protected by Secure Sockets Layer (SSL).
No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. However, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
