Privacy Policy

Last revised: April 15, 2025

Carcirus respects the privacy of its customers, and other individuals and businesses using www.carcirus.com (the “Web site”). This Privacy Policy, effective April 15, 2024, is to keep you informed about the types of information collected on www.carcirus.com and how the information is used and protected.

Carcirus does not collect personally identifiable information about individuals who visit our site except when the information is specifically provided on a voluntary basis. Such instances where personally identifiable information may be gathered are contest or sweepstakes registration, the registration for subscription sites or services and in connection with content submissions, community postings (e.g., chat and bulletin boards), suggestions, voting/polling activities, and transactional areas.

Personally identifiable information on individual users will not be sold or otherwise transferred to unaffiliated third parties without the approval of the user at the time of collection. The user will have the opportunity to indicate whether he or she would like to “opt out” of receiving promotional and/or marketing information about other products, services and offerings from Carcirus or any third parties. Further, notwithstanding any opt-out of promotional information by the user, Carcirus reserves the right to contact a subscriber regarding account status, changes to the subscriber agreement, and other matters relevant to the underlying service and/or the information collected.

Carcirus will perform statistical analyses of user behavior and characteristics in order to measure interest in and use of our site. We will also inform advertisers of such information as well as the number of users that have been exposed to or clicked on their advertising banners. Only aggregated data from these analyses will be provided to third parties. Carcirus may sometimes permit third parties to offer subscription and/or registration-based services through our site. Carcirus is not responsible for any actions or policies of such third parties if a user decides to subscribe or register on those sites and users should check the applicable privacy policy when providing personally identifiable information to third parties.

Users should be aware that when they voluntarily disclose personally identifiable information (e.g., username, e-mail address, etc.) on the bulletin boards or in the chat areas on our site that information and any substantive information disclosed in the communication can be collected and used by third parties. This could result in unsolicited messages from others who post on our site and are beyond the control of Carcirus.

Users may always “opt out” of further promotional contacts at any time. Also, upon request, Carcirus will take reasonable efforts to delete a user’s personal information from its database. It may be impossible to delete a user’s entry without some residual information because of backups and records of deletions.

The foregoing policies are effective as of April 19, 2024. Carcirus reserves the right to change this policy at any time and will notify users of the existence of a new privacy statement. This statement and the policies outlined here are not intended to and do not create any contractual or other legal rights in or on behalf of any party.
