Privacy Policy Details

NBM Host ("NBM Host") provides a variety of web hosting products and services to its international customer base. It is our policy to respect and protect our customers' privacy. This privacy policy begins applying to visitors and customers as soon as they visit NBM Host's website for the first time.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, NBM Host collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. NBM Host's purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how NBM Host's visitors use its website. From time to time, NBM Host may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate. e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to NBM Host's website choose to interact with NBM Host in ways that require NBM Host to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that NBM Host gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who choose to signup for our newsletter for their name and email address. Those who engage in transactions with NBM Host, usually by purchasing web hosting services or registering a domain name, for example, are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, NBM Host collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with NBM Host. NBM Host does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities, including from becoming a customer of NBM Host.

In some cases, NBM Host will ask website visitors wishing to become customers of NBM Host to provide additional information beyond what was requested in the signup form. This information is requested to verify the customer's identity and to reduce the likelihood of fraud, which is common in the web hosting industry in which NBM Host operates. Customers not wishing to provide such information as requested may not be permitted to become customers of NBM Host.

Aggregated Statistics

NBM Host may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites and its customers. For instance, NBM Host may publish the number of emails sent per month or the total number of installations of a certain software package. NBM Host may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, NBM Host does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

NBM Host discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on NBM Host's behalf or to provide services available to NBM Host's customers, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using NBM Host's products and services, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. NBM Host will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, NBM Host discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request.

If you are a customer of NBM Host and have supplied your email address, NBM Host may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new products or services, solicit your feedback, inform you of an outage or interruption in service, or just keep you up to date with what's going on with NBM Host and our products and services. We primarily use our blog, forums, Twitter account, and similar presences to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or through our billing system), we reserve the right to publish it (with personally identifiable information removed as necessary) in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other customers. NBM Host takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Cookies

A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor's computer, and that the visitor's browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. NBM Host uses cookies to help NBM Host identify and track visitors, their usage of NBM Host's website, and their website access preferences. NBM Host visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using NBM Host's website or using its products or services, with the drawback that certain features of NBM Host's websites, products, and services may not function properly without the aid of cookies.

Privacy Policy Changes

Although most changes are likely to be minor, NBM Host may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, with or without notice, and in NBM Host's sole discretion. NBM Host will post changes to its Privacy Policy directly on this page and encourages visitors to regularly check this page for any changes to this Privacy Policy. Your continued use of NBM Host's products and services after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
