At UsedBizStuff.com, we take your privacy very seriously. This policy states what happens to your personal information when you use our Web sites. This policy does not apply to the companies and websites that we advertise or endorse. Please visit their Web sites for their policy regarding how they handle personal information.
What We Collect
When you use our sites we collect several pieces of information including your name, email address, phone number, your ad, your feedback, discussions and posts to our message boards, and where applicable physical address information. Additionally, our servers collect information when you view our site or post an ad, including browser information, referrer information, time stamp, page URL, and your IP address. We collect this information to analyze trends, administer the site, improve site performance and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use.
For all ads, we require a valid phone number and email address. Paid ads require all information necessary for billing purposes including credit card information.
What Happens to Information We Collect
Primarily you can expect that your ad, comments, feedback, and specifically if you include your phone number in any ad, that will be published for all the World Wide Web to see. Most email addresses are hidden from public view. However, any web user may respond to your ad. Replying to your ad will disclose your email address to those who respond to your ad. We publish only to UsedBizStuff owned and operated Websites.
We may retain all correspondence whether made by fax, email, or an online form. We may aggregate, categorize, and analyze the information received. Further, we may use the ideas, concepts, know-how or techniques contained in your correspondence to develop, manufacture, and market products or services.
Electronic information is kept on secured networks. Printed and written information is supervised or secured at all times. Although we make a good faith effort to keep all information secure, we cannot guarantee complete security. All information is stored indefinitely.
All of our billing is done though Authorize Net. We DO NOT maintain or copy your Credit Card Information. Click here for their privacy policy. http://www.authorize.net/company/privacy/
Many search engines and other sites archive or otherwise make available the content published on our site. Presently, we allow it so that people might find your ad more readily. A good example would be results posted by Google that may how your advertisement based upon the content of your advertisement.
What We Don't Do
Although we publish a website of ads that make people's phone numbers and email addresses publicly available, we do not make or sell a simplified list of such information. Further, we discourage the use of number and address harvesters.
We do not make available for download nor cause to download to the computers of users of our sites, programs that collect information about Web browsing habits or cause unsolicited advertising such as ad-ware, spy-ware, or browser hijacks.

Security
We have put in place electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and help prevent unauthorized access, maintain data security, and correctly use the information we collect online. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.

This website contains chat room forums and message boards. Please remember that any information that is disclosed to any of these, is public information and you should exercise caution when deciding to disclose your personal information.
We recommend a few ideas for safer buying and selling.
1. Create and use an email address that is not your primary address. Many sites offer free email -- Hotmail, Yahoo!
2. Place in your ad only the things that you want to be public.
3. Do not use an unlisted phone number.
4. Do not reply to messages offering more than the asking price.
5. Do not send financial information to an unknown individual or email address.
6. When in doubt, rely on your instincts and don't do it.
