By visiting Technorati’s primary website or related websites that Technorati controls or operates (collectively “Technorati Sites”), or using any of our services, you acknowledge that you accept the practices and policies outlined in this Privacy Statement.</p> <h3>What this Privacy Statement Covers</h3> <p>This Privacy Statement covers Technorati’s treatment of personally identifiable information (“Personal Information”) that Technorati gathers when you access Technorati Sites. This Privacy Statement does not apply to the use of your Personal Information by third parties that Technorati does not own or control, or to individuals that Technorati does not control or manage.</p> <h3 id="linkstoothersites">Links to Other Sites</h3> <p>Technorati Sites contains links to blogs and other websites that are not owned or controlled by Technorati. We are not responsible for the privacy policies of such other sites.</p> <h3 id="informationcollection">Information Collection & Use</h3> <p>Technorati is the sole owner of information collected on Technorati Sites. We do not share or sell your information with anyone without your authorization or consent in ways different from what is disclosed in this Privacy Statement.</p> <h3 id="registration">Registration</h3> <p>Technorati provides some features exclusively to its members. Our registration process requires you to provide Technorati with a valid email address as well as a username and password of your choice. Optional information such as your first and last name, year of birth, zip code, and country of residence helps Technorati have a better understanding of its visitors and members. You can choose not to provide us with certain information, but then you may not be able to take advantage of special features offered only to our members.</p> <h3 id="weblogquickclaim">Weblog Quickclaim</h3> <p>As a convenience to its members, Technorati provides the option of claiming a weblog by logging into the administrative interface of their blogging (blog publishing) service. Technorati does not store this login information on our service; we only use this data to determine if you have the ability to alter data on the specified blog.</p> <h3 id="attention">Attention.xml</h3> <p>Technorati provides its members a feature, which gives people the ability to store and retrieve an Attention.xml file containing personal attention history. Technorati does not share this information with other parties.</p> <h3 id="minors">Minor's Privacy</h3> <p>We do not collect or maintain information on Technorati Sites from those people we actually know are under 13 years old, and no part of any Technorati Site is structured to attract anyone under 13 years old.</p> <h3 id="surveys">Surveys or Contests</h3> <p>We may provide you the opportunity to participate in contests or surveys on Technorati Sites. If you participate we will request certain Personal Information from you. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and you therefore have a choice whether or not to disclose this information. The requested information typically includes contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code).</p> <p>We only use this information internally to determine eligibility, notify contest winners, and to measure the success of our efforts.</p> <h2 id="communications">Communications from Technorati Sites</h2> <h3 id="newsletters">Newsletters</h3> <p>If you choose to subscribe to our newsletter(s) we will use your name and email address to send the newsletter to you. Unsubscribe instructions accompany each email.</p> <h3 id="serviceannouncements">Service-related Announcements</h3> <p>We will send you strictly service-related announcements on the rare occasions when it is necessary to do so. For instance, if Technorati is acquired or an earthquake swallows our data center we might notify you with an e-mail.</p> <p>You may not opt-out of these communications, which are not promotional in nature. If you do not wish to receive these announcements you have the option to deactivate your account.</p> <h3 id="customerservice">Customer Service</h3> <p>Based upon the Personal Information you provide us we will send you a welcoming email to verify your username and password. We will also communicate with you in response to your inquiries, to provide the services you request, and to manage your account. We will communicate with you by email or by telephone in accordance with your wishes.</p> <h2 id="informationsharing">Information Sharing and Disclosure</h2> <h3 id="aggregateinformation">Aggregate Information (non-personally identifiable)</h3> <p>We share aggregated demographic information about our visitors and the world of weblogs in general with our partners and advertisers.

We do not share any individual user information with any of our business partners or outside vendors without permission. We may share aggregated statistics with business partners or outside vendors without permission. </p> <p>We may employ other companies and people to perform tasks on our behalf and need to share your information with them to provide products or services to you.
