1. Introduction.
SONICclick respects the privacy of every individual who visits its Web sites and uses its services. This privacy statement provides notice of the standards and terms under which SONICclick protects the privacy of information supplied by visitors to sites on the World Wide Web that are owned and operated by SONICclick, including www.sonicclick.com. This privacy statement provides notice of our information collection practices and of the ways in which your information may be used. This policy may change from time to time, so please check back periodically to review this information.
2. Personally Identifiable Information.
SONICclick typically receives specific data about its Web site visitors only when such information is provided voluntarily, such as when our visitors request information, purchase or enroll for services, provide resume information for employment opportunities, or send us e-mail.

When you provide personally identifiable information to SONICclick through one of our Web sites, it will be used to fulfill your specific request. However, SONICclick reserves the right, in its discretion, to send you bulletins and other important information about your SONICclick services.
SONICclick currently only sends service communication e-mails through www.sonicclick.com, and does not send marketing e-mails or newsletters through www.sonicclick.com. The service communication e-mails are essential to our registering you for service and to our continuing provision of services to you. Therefore, you may not opt out of receiving these e-mail messages.
SONICclick will not, however, sell, trade, or otherwise disclose your personally identifiable information unless we are authorized or legally required to do so, or in the case of imminent physical harm to any person. On those SONICclick sites where you may provide SONICclick with credit card, electronic payment service, or other ordering information via the Web, SONICclick protects and secures this information by employing commercially customary Web-based security and encryption protocols, an example of which is the Secure Socket Layer (SSL). On those sites where you voluntarily offer any feedback, data, answers, questions, comments, suggestions, ideas or the like, SONICclick will treat that portion of the information as non-confidential and non-proprietary and, except as otherwise expressed in this privacy statement, SONICclick assumes no obligation to protect such information from disclosure.
3. Non-Personally Identifiable (Generic) Information.
In general, SONICclick gathers some generic information automatically. Generic information does not reveal the identity of the visitor. It usually includes information about the Internet address assigned to your computer, the number and frequency of visitors, and the SONICclick sites visited. SONICclick gathers this information for the limited purpose of determining customer service and Web site needs. We accomplish this by using certain technologies, including “cookies” (a technology that can be used to provide the visitor with tailored information about SONICclick services). SONICclick does not combine information collected in this way with any personally identifiable information. You can set your Web browser to notify you when you receive a cookie and you can refuse it. However, refusing some cookies may make it impossible to use or navigate the SONICclick Web site properly.
4. Your SONICclick-Hosted Web Site, Bulletin Boards, Chat Rooms and Third Party Sites.
Information that you disclose in a public space, including on any bulletin board, chat room, or Web site that SONICclick may host for you as part of your SONICclick services, is available to anyone else who visits that space. SONICclick cannot safeguard any information you disclose in these locations. Additionally, SONICclick Web sites may contain links to sites that belong to third parties unrelated to SONICclick. SONICclick cannot protect any information you may disclose at these sites and recommends that you review the privacy policy statements of those sites you visit.
5. Exceptions and Limitations.
Notwithstanding the foregoing and in compliance with applicable laws, SONICclick (i) cooperates fully with state, local, and federal officials in any investigation relating to any content (including personal or private electronic communications transmitted to SONICclick) or purported unlawful activities of any user of the SONICclick Service, and (ii) takes reasonable measures to protect its proprietary rights. For the limited purposes of accomplishing such cooperation and measures and in compliance with applicable laws, SONICclick may be required to disclose personally identifiable information.
In addition, SONICclick may elect to monitor the areas of communication of any kind (i) to satisfy any law, regulation, or government request; (ii) if such disclosure is necessary or appropriate to operate SONICclick’s business; or (iii) to protect the rights or property of SONICclick or others.
6. Sale or Transfer of SONICclick’s Stock or Assets.
In connection with the potential or actual sale or transfer of any of its interest in www.sonicclick.com, and other sites owned by SONICclick, and any of the assets or stock of the company, SONICclick reserves the right to sell or transfer your information (including, but not limited to, name, address information, and other information you provided to SONICclick) to a third party that (i) concentrates its business in Web hosting or communication products or services; (ii) agrees to be SONICclick’s successor in interest with regard to the maintenance and protection of information collected and maintained by SONICclick; and (iii) agrees to the obligations of this privacy statement. To the extent it is practicable to do so, this paragraph shall also apply in the event of any bankruptcy proceedings involving SONICclick.
In the event that SONICclick plans to transfer your information to a third party incident to a potential or actual sale of any of SONICclick’s assets or stock, or incident to any bankruptcy proceedings involving SONICclick, SONICclick will:
• Notify you by e-mail, at the e-mail address then on file for your account, at least thirty (30) days prior to the transfer taking place; and
• Give you the opportunity to decide whether you wish for your information to be transferred to the third party. Please note, however, that if you choose not to allow your information to be transferred to the third party, you may have to terminate or cancel your service with SONICclick. At the time of providing notice to you of the upcoming transfer of information to a third party, SONICclick will tell you whether you will have to terminate or cancel your service, should you decide not to allow SONICclick to transfer your information to the third party.
