About theSingle.com and the Information We Collect

TheSingle.com is an online meeting place for singles and other users. Users can publish and reply to personal ads, and interact with other users in various ways. Though users can browse the site as visitors without registration, theSingle.com is mainly a membership based service and the full content is only available to members. They will have to fill out a registration form, provide information about themselves (name, address, email address etc.). This information is used to identify users for internal and technical reasons. None of the information we gather can be used by the public (visitors, other members, and anyone not affiliated by theSingle.com) to identify a specific individual. We collect information only from those who choose to join. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement.

theSingle.com Affiliate Partners: To provide our users with the best service, theSingle.com have teamed up with Affiliate Partners through various Affiliate agencies as a vehicle for providing e-commerce. For instance, certain information and personal information you may give is required for shipping purposes or communication purposes between you and our affiliate partner. Please read their Privacy Statements on their website. No personal member information is exchanged with the Affiliate partner.

Public information is personal information that may be displayed on the site, such as content of published personal ads which cannot be linked to a particular user.

This information includes, but is not limited to, email address, first name, last name, address, sex and the answer to 5 different help questions (date of birth, favorite band/orchestra or musician/composer, 4 last digits of credit card or social security number, mother‘s maiden name).

PUBLIC
The amount of public information the member wants to give is up to the member, though we ask you to do so in sole discretion. The member displays information in a personal ad which is written und then published on the site. This information is meant to be seen by members and visitors to the site but cannot be used to identify a specific member by name, address, etc.

Information that users do not submit to us

AGGREGATE

Links

Our site contains links to other websites. Please be aware that once you click on one of these links, you are moving to another website and our privacy policy no longer applies. Such links would be from an advertiser, sponsor, partner or affiliates. TheSingle.com cannot be responsible for the privacy policies of all the Web sites to which it is linked, or links from those other Web sites to which a user may be further directed.

Use of Cookies

We currently use temporary cookies, „session cookies", throughout the member area for identification purposes. 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, or the login expires due to inactivity after 20 minutes, 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 our site. The drawback to this is that the user will not be able to access the member area, receive a mailbox or post ads.

Please note that advertisers on theSingle.com site may send cookies to users of the site and theSingle.com does not control or have access to this information.

Protecting yourself

It is a good practice to refrain from disclosing your email address or any other information in your personal ads, chat rooms, public forms or any other place unless it's properly protected. Information disclosed may be used by other persons for many purposes, including spamming.
