We may also provide this information to an agent acting on Square 9’s behalf in connection with the activities described above.

Forums and Blogs

From time to time, portions of our websites and Web Services may allow you to post information which other users will be able to access (such as on a “bulletin board” or during an interactive “chat” with other visitors).

By posting the information in this manner you are providing Square 9 and its affiliates the right to use the information in connection with the operation of Square 9’s business. Therefore, we encourage you not to post any information you consider private or sensitive.

We cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you transmit such information at your own risk. While we take reasonable precautions against possible security breaches, no website or Internet transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access, hacking, data loss, or other breaches will never occur. We urge you to take every precaution to protect your personal data when you are on the Internet. Change your passwords often, use a combination of letters and numbers, and make sure you use a secure browser.

We acknowledge the right of individuals to access, correct, and delete their information. Requests to access personal information should be submitted to privacy@square-9.com with the subject line “Personal Information Access Request”.

We will also provide an individual opt-out or opt-in choice before we share their data with third parties other than our agents, or before we use it for a purpose other than which it was originally collected or subsequently authorized.
