Collection and Use
Naked Hosting is the sole owner of the information collected on
this site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to
others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement.
Naked Hosting collects information from our users at several different
points on our website.
Registration
and Order Forms
In order to sign-up for our Hosting services, a user must either
complete the registration and order form on-line, or send us this
information via facsimile transmission or regular mail. During
registration, a user is required to give their contact information
(such as name, phone number, fax number, and e-mail address) and
certain financial information (like credit card number, expiration
date, and/or checking account number). This information is used
to set-up and maintain an account, process payments, provide hosting
services, and if we have trouble processing an order or otherwise
need to contact a user, the contact information is used to get
in touch with the user.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user’s hard drive
containing information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in
no way linked to any personally identifiable information while
on our site. Once the user closes their browser, the cookie simply
terminates. For instance, by setting a cookie on our site, the
user would not have to log in a password more than once, thereby
saving time while on our site. If a user rejects the cookie, they
may still use certain portions of our site, although other portions
may not be accessible.
While
we do not currently use cookies on our site, we may use cookies
in the future in order to expand our service offerings and provide
better service to our users. Some of our business partners may
use cookies on our site (for example, advertisers). However, we
have no access to or control over these cookies.
Log
Files
Our server software collects and records IP addresses, referring
URLs, OS and browser types, and records what files are downloaded
by end users of the sites hosted by us. We use this information
to analyze trends, administer the sites, track user movements
through our site and the sites hosted by us, and to gather broad
demographic information for aggregate use (collectively, “Web
Statistics”). We use the Web Statistics to enhance our Hosting
services, monitor and improve our network, and to provide the
sites hosted by us with usage information.
Sharing
We may share aggregated demographic information with our hosted
sites and with our sponsors. This is not linked to any personal
information that can identify any individual person. We may also
use an outside company or companies to process payments. From
time to time, we may contract with another party to provide certain
specific services to our users.
We
currently do not sell or otherwise make available personally identifiable
information about our users or Web Statistics to third parties.
Nevertheless, we reserve the right to make such information available
to third parties in the future in order to enhance our services.
Law
Enforcement
We will cooperate with law enforcement authorities, private-party
litigants, and others seeking information about our end users
