Internet Corp respects the confidentiality of information collected from its users. Our goal is to provide you with a personalized browsing experience on the sites to which we provide and manage content, an experience that provides you with information, resources and services that are relevant and useful to you. In achieving this goal, we sometimes collect information about our users during their visits, in order to understand what are the things that differentiate them from thousands of other users who do not access the information and services. Also, due to the fact that the advertising resources help us provide you free of charge some of the information presented, the collection of your personal information (name, e-mail, preferences, etc.), is a necessity for adapting our advertising space to your preferences.

The purpose of this privacy agreement is to prove our concern for your privacy on the Internet, and the consequences of this agreement extend to all information collected by Internet Corp. from its users. Additional terms to this agreement, if any, may also be offered to you for review prior to subscribing to other private services provided by our sites.

What information we collect

Internet Corp collects information from its users in three ways - directly from the user, from traffic reports recorded by the servers that host Internet Corp sites and through cookies.

Information provided directly by user: When you subscribe to a service provided by Internet Corp, we may ask you what your name is, what your email address is and we may ask you for other personal information. The more information you provide voluntarily, the better we can personalize the information provided on your next visit.

Server traffic report information: When you visit a website, you disclose certain information about yourself, such as your IP address, the time of your visit, the place you where when you accessed our sites. Internet Corp., like other personal data controllers, records this information.

Cookies: for the purpose of providing a personalized service to our users, Internet Corp may use cookies to facilitate the storage and tracking of your preferences. For example, we may use cookies to identify you and to provide you with information and services based on your preferences which you have expressed in your previous visits. Also, third-party online advertising networks may use cookies in order to adapt advertising messages to your preferences.

Cookies are ".txt" files, provided to your browser by a web server and then stored on your computer's hard drive. The use of cookies is a current standard on many of the important sites you visit.

Information provided directly by the user: this information is used only for the purpose of personalizing the services offered to you and verifying your identity;

Information collected from the traffic report of the Internet Corp server: this type of information helps us to identify which sections of our sites are sections of interest to users.

How we protect the information we collect from you

The confidentiality and protection of the information collected from you are of vital importance to us.

Moreover, if possible, you must remember to sign off your account from the online services offered by Internet Corp at the end of each session. We also advise you to close the browser window in which you worked at the end of your browsing on the sites or services provided by Internet Corp.

These tips are intended to remove unauthorized access to your personal information or correspondence when working on a computer network in a public place (internet cafes, for example).

Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Consequently, despite our efforts to protect your personal information, Internet Corp cannot guarantee or guarantee the security of the information you transmit to us, to and from our online services or our products. We therefore warn you that any information sent to us will be at your own risk.

At the same time, however, Internet Corp. may disclose personally identifiable information when expressly provided by law or when necessary to protect the rights and interests of Internet Corp

In conclusion, when you access the Internet Corp sites and are asked to disclose information about yourself to us, you will only disclose this information to the Internet Corp sites, unless the service or information is provided in partnership with another site or service.

But every time such a service is provided in partnership with another site, you will be informed about it. In order to provide you with services at the highest possible standards, it is necessary to share your personal information with the partner site or service. If you do not wish your data to be shared, you can proceed accordingly by not allowing the transfer of data by not using that particular service.

We advise you to keep this confirmation e-mail, especially since it also contains information that may be useful to you when problems arise in accessing our services.

Sharing information to third parties

Internet Corp sites may use the services of advertising companies to set advertising targets and support advertising campaigns and other messages specific to the marketing activity. To this extent, these companies may collect anonymous data through cookies.
