Privacy Policy
Googuides is committed to protecting the
privacy of its users. When you register for Googuides online
services, the information you provide to us is used to provide the
services you have registered for, to deliver email notifications to you
(or people you designate as your recipients), and from time to time, to
validate your identity. Our data collection policies with regard to
current and future services allow you to choose how much information you
provide to us, and to control how we use that information. Read below to
find out more.
Our Commitment to You
Googuides is committed to making your experience satisfying and
safe. Our data collection policies allow you to choose how much
information you provide to us, and what Googuides does with the
information you supply. Googuides will keep your information within
Googuides unless you consent to our supplying all or a portion of
your information to third parties as a part of one of the Googuides
service offerings. However, if you tell Googuides not to send you
further emails, this instruction may be communicated to third parties
who send email on Googuides behalf solely to allow us to comply
with your instructions. Googuides collects information online to
allow you to use our services. Depending on the service you are
accessing, you could be asked at various times to provide information
such as your name, email address, street address, contact phone number
or other information related to of the property you are seeking to lease
to own purchase, buy or sell. On other occasions such as when we require
payment for Googuides services, we may request your credit card
number to conclude the transaction. We request this information to
deliver on the services you are requesting, and to allow us to provide
our strongest value to you - a personalized online experience.
Information collected online is often defined as being either anonymous
or personally identifiable:
1. Anonymous Information refers to information that cannot be
tied back to a specific individual. For instance, we may know that
thousands of people have visited this Googuides Privacy Policy
webpage, but we do not necessarily know their names, where they live, or
their date of birth. What we collect from visits such as this
constitutes anonymous information. Many of the individuals who access
our services decline to use the personalization features that are
available to them, and therefore those individuals are anonymous to us
and the only data we collect about them is anonymous information.
2. Personally Identifiable Information refers to information that
tells us specifically who you are, such as your name, email address or
phone number. In many cases we need this information to provide the
personalized or enhanced service that you have requested. We hope that,
like many of our customers, you will find it beneficial to provide
Personally Identifiable Information to Googuides so that we may
provide valuable services to you. Registering with Googuides will
also cause a Googuides cookie to be issued; this cookie allows Googuides to "recognize" you when you are on Googuides site to
allow us to personalize our service for you.
