What
information does Hosteze.com collect and how is it used?
A.
Personally-Identifiable Information:
Hosteze.com typically receives specific data about its website
visitors only when such information is provided voluntarily,
such as when our visitors request information, purchase or
enroll for services, or send us e-mail. Of course, some of these
activities require that you give us information, such as when
you make a purchase, use a credit card to pay for services, or
request certain types of information. When you provide
personally-identifiable information to Hosteze.com through one
of our websites, it will be used to fulfill your specific
request. You may also request that we not use your information
by sending an e-mail to us,
however, Hosteze.com reserves the right, in its discretion, to
send you bulletins and other important information about your
Hosteze.com services. Absent any instructions from you,
Hosteze.com may use information you provide to inform you about
additional services and products offered by the Hosteze.com
family of companies, Hosteze.com authorized agents, and other
goods and services providers with whom Hosteze.com has
relationships and whose offerings might be of interest to you.

non-confidential and non-proprietary and, except as otherwise

certain technologies, including "cookies" (a technology that can
be used to provide the visitor with tailored information about

collected in this way with any personally-identifiable
information. You can set your browser to notify you when you
receive a cookie and you can refuse it.C. Your
