Dispute Resolution. All disputes arising out of, relating to or connected with these TOS or your use of any part of the Slickdeals.net Service will be exclusively resolved under confidential binding arbitration held in Clark County, Nevada before and in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association, by a sole arbitrator applying Nevada law (without regard for conflicts of law principles). The arbitrator's award will be binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no arbitration under these TOS will be joined to an arbitration involving any other party subject to these TOS, whether through class arbitration proceedings or otherwise. Any action to enforce an arbitrator's award will be brought in a federal or state court located in Clark County, Nevada. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the personal jurisdiction of the Federal and Nevada State courts in Clark County. By entering into these TOS, you hereby irrevocably waive any right you may have to join claims with those of others in the form of a class action or similar procedural device. Any claim arising out of, relating to or connected with these TOS or your use of any part of the Slickdeals.net Service must be asserted individually. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, Slickdeals may seek equitable relief, including, without limitation, injunctive relief and specific performance, without the requirement of posting a bond or other security or proving money damages are insufficient, from a court of competent jurisdiction.

Waiver and Severability of Terms. The failure of Slickdeals to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOS shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the TOS is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the TOS remain in full force and effect.

No Right of Survivorship and Non-Transferability. You agree that your Slickdeals account is non-transferable and any rights to your Slickdeals ID or contents within your account terminate upon your death. Upon receipt of a copy of a death certificate, your account may be terminated and all contents therein permanently deleted.

By using the Slickdeals.net Web Site you are accepting the practices described in this policy. If you have any questions or comments regarding this Privacy Policy, please contact Slickdeals at: webguru@slickdeals.net.

Does Slickdeals.net Ever Make Changes to its Privacy Policy?

Slickdeals may make changes to the Privacy Policy from time to time. Slickdeals will notify you of any changes by sending you an email, Private Message, or posting a notice on the Slickdeals Web Site, after Slickdeals has made changes. If you receive notification of a change in Slickdeals Privacy Policy, you must review the new Privacy Policy carefully to make sure you understand Slickdeals practices and procedures before using the Slickdeals.net Website and any Services.

What Types of Information Does Slickdeals.net Collect From Me?

Personal Information. For each visitor to the Slickdeals Web Site, the Slickdeals Web server automatically recognizes only the consumer's domain name, but not the e-mail address (where possible).

Slickdeals collects the e-mail addresses of those who communicate with Slickdeals via e-mail, aggregate information on what pages consumers access or visit, user-specific information on what pages consumers access or visit, information volunteered by the consumer, such as survey information and/or site registrations.

Non-Personal Information. Slickdeals also collects "non-personal" information from you, such as your browser type, the URL of the previous web site you visited, your ISP, operating system, and your IP Address. This information ("Non-Personal Information") cannot be easily used to personally identify you.

How and When Does Slickdeals.net Collect This Information?

Providing Information to Slickdeals. Slickdeals collects Personal Information from you when you provide it to us. For example, when you register with the Slickdeals.net web site, Slickdeals may collect your username, email address, and other information that Slickdeals requests in the registration process, and any additional information that you provide on your profile page (e.g. contact information). If you sign up to receive an email notification, Slickdeals will collect your email address.

Communications With Slickdeals. If you communicate with Slickdeals regarding the Web Site or the Slickdeals.net Services, Slickdeals’s will collect any information that you provide to Slickdeals in any such communication.

Analytic and Reporting Technologies. Like the operators of most web sites, Slickdeals uses analytic and reporting technologies to record Non-Personal Information such as Internet domain and host names, Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser software and operating system types, clickstream patterns, and the dates and times that the Web Site and the  Slickdeals Services are accessed.

How Does Slickdeals.net Use My Information?

Slickdeals uses Personal Information and Non-Personal Information primarily to improve the content of Slickdeals Web page, used to notify consumers about updates to the Slickdeals Web site, used by Slickdeals to contact consumers for marketing purposes, not shared with other organizations for commercial purposes.

When Will Slickdeals.net Disclose My Information to Third Parties?

Generally speaking, Slickdeals does not intentionally disclose your information to third parties without your consent. However, Slickdeals reserves the right to do so because it is necessary to the operation and continued growth of Slickdeals or to protect the rights of others. These instances are discussed below:

Disclosure to Successors. Slickdeals may disclose your Personal Information to any successor-in-interest of Slickdeals, such as a company that acquires Slickdeals. In the event Slickdeals.net goes through a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or a portion of its assets, your personally identifiable information will likely be among the assets transferred. You will be notified via email or by a notice on the Slickdeals Web Site of any such change in ownership or control of your personal information.

Disclosure to Unaffiliated Third Parties. Slickdeals may disclose your Personal Information to prevent an emergency, to protect or enforce our rights, to protect or enforce the rights of a third party, or as required or permitted by law (including, without limitation, to comply with a subpoena or court order). Slickdeals may disclose your information to a third party that alleges that you have infringed their intellectual property rights. Similarly, if you allege that a user allegedly infringed on your intellectual property rights, Slickdeals may disclose your information to that user.

Disclosure to Third-Party Service Providers. Slickdeals may contract with various third parties who help Slickdeals provide and maintain the Web Site or the Slickdeals.net Services. Slickdeals cannot guarantee that such third parties will not disclose your Personal Information. Additionally, please keep in mind that whenever you give out personal information online --- for example, via message boards or chat --- that information can be collected and used by people you don't know. While SlickDeals.net Forums strives to protect your personal information and privacy, Slickdeals cannot guarantee the security of any information you disclose online; you make such disclosures at your own risk. However, if you violate the rules, SlickDeals.net Forums reserves the right to disclose any and all user activity to the public, third parties and or law enforcement agencies. With respect to Ad Servers: To try and bring you offers that are of interest to you, Slickdeals has relationships with other companies that allow other companies to place ads on the Slickdeals Web Site. As a result of your visit to Slickdeals.net site, ad server companies may collect information such as your domain type, your IP address and clickstream information.

What About Cookies?

A cookie is a message that is sent to your computer from a web server and stored on your computer's hard drive. With respect to cookies: Slickdeals does not set any cookies. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by Slickdeals.net only and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.

Does Slickdeals.net Protect My Personal Information?

Personal Information. Whenever Slickdeals obtains your Personal Information, Slickdeals uses commercially reasonable efforts to protect it from unauthorized access or disclosure. However, Slickdeals is not an insurer of the security of your Personal Information. Accordingly, Slickdeals assumes no liability for any disclosure of data due to errors in transmission, unauthorized third party access or other acts of third parties, or acts or omissions beyond Slickdeals reasonable control.

Web Site Content. The content that you store, post, or transmit on or through the Web Site, such as message board postings, your profile page, and images you upload to the Web Site, may be accessed by other users, including people that you do not know. Slickdeals is not responsible for the actions of others. Therefore, you should use care in communicating with other users and only disclose your Personal Information to other users that you know to be trustworthy. You should not assume that your content will be kept private.

Security

The security of your personal information is important to Slickdeals.

Slickdeals follows generally accepted industry standards to protect the Personal Information submitted to Slickdeals, both during transmission and once Slickdeals receive it. However, no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while Slickdeals strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, Slickdeals cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Does This Privacy Policy Apply When I Access Third Party Web Sites?

You may be able to access third-party web sites directly from the Slickdeals Web Site. This Privacy Policy does not apply when you access such web sites. Slickdeals cannot control how third parties may use Personal Information you disclose to them, so you should carefully review the privacy policy of any third-party web site you visit before using it or disclosing your Personal Information to its provider.

What About Children's Privacy?

Under Thirteen. The Slickdeals Services are only for users ages 13 and older. Accordingly, Slickdeals will delete any information that Slickdeals knows originates from a child under the age of 13.

Thirteen to Seventeen. Slickdeals insists that prospective users between the ages of 13 and 17 using the Slickdeals.net Services should be under their parents' or legal guardian's supervision while accessing the Web Site to ensure their privacy.
