We also track the browser you are using.
COOKIES . A "cookie" is a small text file containing a unique identification number that is transferred from a website to your computer hard drive so that the website's computer may identify your browser whenever you visit the website, and may track your activities on the website. Many cookies are "session cookies" that are deleted automatically at the end of a session. Cookies make your use of a website easier and more streamlined. Cookies do not enable us to obtain any personally identifiable information (name, address, etc.) about you, and we do not attempt to obtain such information using cookies. Likewise, cookies cannot run on your computer, search your computer for other information, or transmit any information to anyone. The use of cookies is now an industry standard. Most major websites use cookies, and most browsers are initially set up to accept them. You are free to decline a cookie if your browser enables such a choice, but you may find that many areas of SportsCrew Sorority do not function properly or as smoothly as they did prior to your declining the cookie.

We use the personal information you provide for the following internal purposes:
Delivering the services you request; Enabling you to access, update, change or delete your profile or photo; Improving website layout, functions, content and service offerings; Analyzing website usage to improve our marketing and promotional efforts; Notifying you of issues, problems or actions taken with respect to your profile or photo;

Notify you that you have won, or are eligible to win, a prize in a special SportsCrew Sorority contest or promotion;
Request that you be featured in the SportsCrew Sorority newsletter or in other SportsCrew publication(s) or materials; or
Inform you that an outside party involved in entertainment, media or fashion (such as, for example, a casting, advertising or modeling agency) has expressed a particular interest in your photo and would like to contact you directly. In all of these situations, we will take no further action unless you give us your permission to do so. We will not send you any prize, feature you in any publication or other materials, or share your personal information with any outside party unless you give us permission to do so. In instances where you are to be featured in a newsletter or other publication or materials, you will have a pre-publication right to review all information prepared concerning you, and to refuse the publication of such information if you find it unsuitable for any reason.
We use your IP address to:
Administer SportsCrew Sorority ; Diagnose server problems, if any; and
Assist in handling violations, if any, of the SportsCrew Sorority TERMS OF SERVICE. We use return e-mail addresses to answer the e-mail we receive. We do not use such addresses for any other purpose and do not share them with outside parties.
We analyze the non-identifying aggregate user data we collect and use it to inform sponsors and prospective sponsors as to the number of people who visit SportsCrew Sorority (or who receive the SportsCrew Sorority newsletter) and their demographic characteristics, as well as the number of people who view or click on individual advertisements appearing on SportsCrew Sorority (or in the SportsCrew Sorority newsletter) and their demographic characteristics. The information we provide to sponsors and prospective sponsors is in aggregate form only - we do not disclose any personally identifiable information to sponsors or prospective sponsors as part of this process.
WHEN AND HOW OUTSIDE PARTIES MIGHT USE CERTAIN INFORMATION WE COLLECT
Notwithstanding anything contained elsewhere in this Privacy Policy, there are certain limited instances where outside parties might use certain information we collect:
DISCLOSURE OF CERTAIN INFORMATION MAY BE NECESSARY . We will disclose such information as may be necessary to: (a) comply with the law or with authorities acting properly under the law; (b) identify and troubleshoot server or website problems; (c) resolve disputes involving users or outside parties; (d) enforce the SportsCrew Sorority TERMS OF SERVICE; or (e) protect the personal safety of users or outside parties.
OUTSIDE CONTRACTORS . We may use other companies and individuals to perform certain website administrative functions and other functions (data analysis, marketing assistance, etc.) on our behalf. To the extent these companies and individuals have access to user information in the course of performing such functions, they may use such information only for purposes related to the work they are performing for us and may not use it for any other purposes.
JOINT CONTESTS OR PROMOTIONS . If a SportsCrew Sorority sponsor and we run a joint contest or promotion on the SportsCrew Sorority website that involves the collection of personal information from SportsCrew Sorority users, we will inform you at the point of collection whether the personal information you are about to provide will be shared with such sponsor or any other outside party. If you do not want us to share your personal information, you can choose not to participate in the contest or promotion.
EXTERNAL WEBSITES LINKED TO SPORTSCREW SORORITY . Advertisement banners and other items appearing on SportsCrew Sorority may be linked to external websites that we do not own or control. Although we hope such websites observe privacy standards as high as ours, we are not responsible for what happens to information you may provide to such websites.
SALE OF SPORTSCREW SORORITY TO AN OUTSIDE PURCHASER . In the event we contemplate selling all or a portion of SportsCrew Sorority to an outside purchaser, such prospective purchaser will likely require access to all information related to SportsCrew Sorority , including the personal information SportsCrew Sorority users have provided to us. We will not share such information unless the prospective purchaser first agrees in writing to keep such information confidential.
SECURITY
We are concerned about protecting against the loss, misuse or alteration of user information and data under our control. Although we cannot guarantee that security breaches will never occur, we have implemented measures to reduce their likelihood and potential severity, including:
Programming the SportsCrew Sorority website so that access to your personal information is ID-protected and password-protected; and
Allowing only individuals we consider trustworthy - and only a limited number of such individuals at that - to have access to databases containing user information, or to the server(s) used to host SportsCrew Sorority .
PROTECTING THE PRIVACY OF UNDERAGE INDIVIDUALS
We believe that protecting the privacy of underage individuals is especially important. For that reason, we expressly prohibit anyone under 21 years of age from submitting a profile or photo to SportsCrew Sorority , and will not collect or maintain information from, or display a photo of, anyone we actually know is under 21 years of age.
UPDATES AND CHANGES TO THE PRIVACY POLICY
We may update or change our Privacy Policy from time to time. If this occurs, we will promptly incorporate such updates or changes into this PRIVACY POLICY link.
If we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated in our Privacy Policy at the time such information was collected, we will send an electronic notification to the on-file e-mail addresses of all users so affected. We will then afford the recipients of such notification a reasonable amount of time to remove all of their personal information from the SportsCrew Sorority website if they so choose. We will not be responsible for the non-delivery of the notification if such non-delivery is due to a mechanical malfunction or a user's failure to provide us with a correct, current and actively functioning e-mail address.
