Welcome to http://marketrap.com. This privacy policy ("Privacy Policy") explains our online information practices and the way your information is collected and used at Market Rap. Your privacy is very important to us.  This Privacy Policy forms part of our Terms of Use.

Introduction

We respect your online privacy and recognize your need for protection and management of any personally identifiable information ("Personal Information") you share with us.

We define Personal Information as any information that may be used to identify an individual, including, but not limited to, a first and last name, personal profile, a home or other physical address, an email address or other contact information, whether at work or at home. We do not currently require you to provide Personal Information in order to have access to messages, analysis and news available on Market Rap. If you would like to receive any email notifications or updates from us, please register to create a profile and provide your email address. At a later time, you may add additional Personal Information to your profile.

If you choose to provide us with your Personal Information on the Market Rap, we may transfer that Personal Information within Market Rap or to Market Rap's third-party service providers, but only to provide services on the Market Rap, across borders, and from your country or jurisdiction to other countries or jurisdictions around the world.

Market Rap strives to comply with all applicable laws around the world that are designed to protect your privacy. Although legal requirements may vary from country to country, Market Rap intends to adhere to the principles set forth in this Privacy Policy even if, in connection with the above, we transfer your Personal Information from your country to countries that may not require an "adequate" level of protection for your Personal Information. Our goal is to provide protection for your Personal Information no matter where that Personal Information is collected, transferred, or retained. Finally, we may disclose your Personal Information if we have a good faith belief that disclosure of such information is helpful or reasonably necessary to i) enforce our Terms of Service including investigations of potential violations thereof, ii) comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request, iii) detect, prevent, or otherwise deal with fraud, security or technical issues, or iv) protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of Market Rap, its users, yourself or the public.
