Information
We May Place Automatically On Your Computer's Hard Drive
When

allow us to tailor the Site or advertisement to better match

Basis
of Privacy Policy Principles
The
privacy principles of this policy are based on respect
for
international standards of privacy protection, such as the
Information Privacy Principles set out in section 14 of the
Commonwealth Privacy Act, 1998, and section 6 of the New
Zealand Privacy Act 1993 and the Australian Privacy Charter.
Security
of Information
M8
takes reasonable steps to preserve the security of "Cookie" and
personal information in accordance with this Site’s Terms
of Use and Privacy Policy. We operate secure data networks protected
by industry standard firewall and password protection. We have
security measures in place to attempt to protect against the
loss, misuse and alteration of your user data under our control.
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be
guaranteed as totally secure. Accordingly, M8 strives to protect
such information. M8 cannot ensure or warrant the security of
any information you transmit to us or from our online products
or services and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your
transmission we take reasonable steps to preserve the security
of the information in our systems.
Only certain employees have access to the information you provide
us. For example, we impose strict rules on our employees who
have access either to the databases that store user information
or to the servers that host our services. While we cannot guarantee
that loss, misuse or alteration to data will not occur we try
to prevent such unfortunate occurrences.
