- Use of Information
Autobuying-topics.com uses information voluntarily given by the web site users, and/or their friends or family members, in order to provide such individuals with information on products and/or services that may be of interest to them.
We and/or our marketing partners may enhance and/or merge personally identifiable information about users with data collected from other sources to use in direct and/or online marketing and, to the extent permitted by law, individual reference and look-up service programs. In the event we enhance and/or merge such personally identifiable information with data collected from other sources, we will take reasonable steps to maintain the integrity and quality of that information.

- Sharing of Information
Autobuying-topics.com shares or uses the information described above to help advertisers and third party marketers better understand the demographics of our registrants and for their marketing purposes. Autobuying-topics.com shares personally identifiable information (including information that has been enhanced with information from other sources) with advertisers, third party marketers, and our affiliates for their direct and/or online marketing efforts and, to the extent permitted by law, for individual reference and look-up service programs. While Autobuying-topics.com seeks to contractually obligate our partners to treat information in accordance with accepted marketing practices, Autobuying-topics.com does not control the practices of its advertisers or third party marketers.
If users indicate that they do not want to have their email address shared with third parties for general email marketing solicitations, Autobuying-topics.com will limit the use of their data to certain direct marketing services. These services currently include the provision of personally identifiable information to third parties to validate and enhance existing information held by marketers about their customers. For example, a marketer may use personally identifiable data provided by Autobuying-topics.com to add information about the user to its own file for use by that marketer in its own marketing efforts. Similarly, a marketer may use such data merely to verify or validate the accuracy of data about such user that the marketer already possesses; to suppress further marketing messages being sent by such marketer to a user; or in connection with individual reference and look-up service programs (i.e., services used primarily to identify, locate, or verify the identity of an individual).
Users' requests to unsubscribe from Autobuying-topics.com email solicitations will be processed promptly, but in any event within 10 days. In the event that technical difficulties prevent the immediate processing of unsubscribe requests, such requests will be processed as soon as technically feasible.

At all times, Autobuying-topics.com reserves the right to disclose information where required by law or to comply with valid legal process (such as a search warrant, subpoena or court order), to protect the company's rights or property (including without limitation in the event of a transfer of control of autobuying-topics.com or substantially all of its assets), or during emergencies when safety is at risk. Nonetheless, users will have the opportunity to choose whether or not they want to receive further information and offers from AutoBuying-Topics.com following a change of ownership or control.
