Privacy Policy

Introduction

Our website address is https://parbatnews.com.

ParbatNews takes the private nature of your personal information very seriously.

This privacy policy describes how we treat the information we collect when you visit and use our websites. Please read this notice very carefully.

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, ParbatNews collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. ParbatNews’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how ParbatNews’s visitors use its website. From time to time, ParbatNews may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g. by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

ParbatNews also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. ParbatNews does not use such information to identify its visitors, and does not disclose such information, other than under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information, as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to ParbatNews’s websites choose to interact with ParbatNews in ways that require ParbatNews to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that ParbatNews gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up for ParbatNews to provide a username and email address. In each case, ParbatNews collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with ParbatNews.

ParbatNews does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities

Aggregated Statistics

ParbatNews may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, ParbatNews may monitor the most popular collections on ParbatNews.

ParbatNews may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, ParbatNews does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

ParbatNews discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on ParbatNews’s behalf or to provide services available at ParbatNews’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using ParbatNews’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. In addition, in some cases we may choose to buy or sell assets. In these types of transactions, user information is typically one of the business assets that is transferred. Moreover, if ParbatNews or substantially all of its assets were acquired, or in the unlikely event that ParbatNews goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquiror of ParbatNews may continue to use your personal and non-personal information only as set forth in this policy. Otherwise, ParbatNews will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone.

Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, ParbatNews discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when ParbatNews believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of ParbatNews, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of a ParbatNews website and have supplied your email address, ParbatNews may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with ParbatNews and its products. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. ParbatNews takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

You should also be aware that if you submit information to “chat rooms,” “forums” or “message boards” such information becomes public information, meaning that you lose any privacy rights you might have with regards to that information. Such disclosures may also increase your chances of receiving unwanted communications.

Cookies

ParbatNews uses cookies to help ParbatNews identify and track visitors, their usage of ParbatNews websites, and their website access preferences. ParbatNews visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using ParbatNews’s websites, with the drawback that certain features of ParbatNews’s websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.

These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This privacy policy covers the use of cookies by ParbatNews and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.

Links to Third Party Sites

This privacy policy only applies to information collected by ParbatNews. This privacy policy does not apply to the practices of companies that ParbatNews does not own or control, or employees that ParbatNews does not manage. A ParbatNews website may contain links to third party websites. Any information you provide to, or that is collected by, third-party sites may be subject to the privacy policies of those sites, if any. We encourage you to read such privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit. It is the sole responsibility of such third parties to adhere to any applicable restrictions on the disclosure of your personally-identifying information, and ParbatNews and its affiliates shall not be liable for wrongful use or disclosure of your personally-identifying information by any third party.

Security

All non-personally-identifying information, potentially personally-identifying and personally identifying-information described above is stored on restricted database servers.

Choice/Opt-out

If we ever send you information by email concerning new products, services or information that you did not expressly request, we will provide you with an email address by which you may request no further notices.

Address Book Data

Any external address book data (email contacts, etc.) that a user voluntarily gives ParbatNews access to will only be used for the described feature (looking up friends, etc.), and will not be stored or repurposed.

Privacy Policy Changes

Although most changes are likely to be minor, ParbatNews may change its privacy policy from time to time, and in ParbatNews’s sole discretion. ParbatNews encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its privacy policy. Your continued use of this site after any change in this privacy policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
