1. collection of data

registration for an account on our site requires only a valid e-mail address and a user name that has not been chosen already. you are not required to provide any other information if you do not want to. please be aware that the user name you choose, the email address you provide and any other information you enter may render you personally identifiable, and may possibly be displayed on our web site intentionally (depending on choices you make during the registration process, or depending on the way in which the site is configured) or unintentionally (subsequent to a successful act of intrusion by a third party). as on many web sites, HTS may also automatically receive general information that is contained in server log files, such as your ip address, and cookie information.

2. use of data

data may be used to customize and improve your user experience on our site. efforts will be made to prevent your data being made available to third parties unless (i) provided for otherwise in our privacy policy; (ii) your consent is obtained, such as when you choose to opt-in or opt-out for the sharing of data; (iii) a service provided on our site requires interaction with a third party, or is provided by a third party, such as an application service provider; (iv) pursuant to legal action or law enforcement; (v) it is found that your use of our site violates HTS’s policy, terms of service, or other usage guidelines, or if it is deemed reasonably necessary by HTS to protect HTS’s legal rights and/or property; or (vi) our site is purchased by a third party, in which case that third party will be able to use the data in the same manner as set forth in this policy. in the event you choose to use links displayed on our web site to visit other web sites, you are advised to read the privacy policies published on those sites.

5. no guarantees

while our privacy policy states standards for maintenance of data, and while efforts will be made to meet the said standards, HTS is not in a position to guarantee compliance with these standards. there may be factors beyond HTS’s control that may result in disclosure of data. consquently, HTS offers no warranties or representations as regards maintenance or non-disclosure of data.
