Media 247 has created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy. The following discloses the information gathering and dissemination practices for Biz Asia.

"You" shall mean you, the user of the site, "Biz Asia/We" shall mean Biz Asia and its associated members and the "Biz Asia" shall have the meaning as set out above.

Information About All Biz Asia Visitors
In general, our service automatically gathers certain "ratings" information when a visitor comes to Biz Asia. We only use such data in the aggregate.

This collective data helps us determine how much our customers use parts of the site, so we can improve our site to assure that it is as appealing as we can make it for as many of you as possible. For example, Biz Asia uses a technology nicknamed "cookies" that tells us how and when pages in our site are visited, and by how many people.

Cookies do not collect personally identifiable information and we do not combine information collected through cookies with other personally identifiable information to tell us who you are or even what your screen name or e-mail address is. We also may provide statistical "ratings" information, never information about you personally, to our Biz Asia partners about how our members, collectively, use Biz Asia.

We do this so they too can understand how much people use their areas and our site in order for them to provide you with the best possible Web experience as well.

Information About You
Sometimes, we may specifically ask for information about you when you sign up to use a service. We will need certain information -- such as name and email address - in order to provide that service or product to you.

We may also use that information to let you know of additional products and services about which you might be interested. Additionally, we may provide you with an opportunity to be listed in our weekly Media 247 newsletter - these listings are also optional and you can make changes to or eliminate this information when you want to.

Disclosure
We do not use or disclose information about your individual visits to Biz Asia or information that you may give us, such as your name, address, email address or telephone number, to any outside companies. But as we mention above, we may share with our Web site partners aggregated statistical "ratings" information about the use of Biz Asia.

Biz Asia Privacy Policy Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy for Biz Asia, we will post those changes here so that you will always know what information we gather, how we might use that information and whether we will disclose it to anyone.
