Third-party Advertisers, Links to Other Sites

MoBoogie allows other companies, called third-party ad servers or ad networks, to serve advertisements within the MoBoogie Site. These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology to send, directly to your browser, the advertisements and links that appear on the MoBoogie Site. They automatically receive your IP address when this happens. They may also use other technologies to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and to personalize the advertising content you see.

We may provide to third parties information about you that does not allow you to be identified or contacted, including where such information is combined with similar information of other users. For example, we might inform third parties regarding the number of unique users who visit the MoBoogie Site, the demographic breakdown of our users, or the content viewed by users. The third parties to which we may provide this information may include potential or actual advertisers, providers of advertising products or services (including vendors and web site tracking services), commercial partners, sponsors, licensees, researchers and other similar parties. MoBoogie does not provide any personally identifiable information to these third-party ad servers or ad networks without your consent or except as part of a specific program or feature for which you will have the ability to opt-in or opt-out. However, please note that if an advertiser asks MoBoogie to show an advertisement to a certain audience (for example, men ages 18-34) or audience segment (for example, men ages 18-24 who have viewed certain channels of content) and you respond to that advertisement, the advertiser or ad-server may conclude that you fit the description of the audience they are trying to reach. The advertiser may also use information regarding your use of the MoBoogie Site, such as the number of times you viewed an ad (but not any personally identifiable information), to determine which ads to deliver to you.

You should consult the respective privacy policies of these third-party ad servers or ad networks for more information on their practices and for instructions on how to opt-out of certain practices. MoBoogie's privacy policy does not apply to, and we cannot control the activities of, such other advertisers or web sites. Any data obtained by third-party ad servers subsequently shared with MoBoogie is maintained and dealt with by MoBoogie in accordance with this privacy policy.

Laws and Legal Rights

We may disclose your information, including personally identifiable information, if we believe in good faith that we are required to do so in order to comply with an applicable statute, regulation, rule or law, a subpoena, a search warrant, a court or regulatory order, or other valid legal process. We may disclose personally identifiable information in special circumstances when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contract or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our or our Partners’ Terms of Service, or protect the safety and/or security of our users, MoBoogie, or the general public.

Sale of Business

We reserve the right to transfer information (including personally identifiable information) about you to a third party in the event of a sale, merger or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of MoBoogie, provided that the third party agrees to adhere to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
