INFORMATION COLLECTION AND USE
Oddpodz collects personally identifiable information when you request information from Oddpodz. On such occasions, Oddpodz asks for your name, email address, phone number, zip code and personal information concerning your interests, occupation, gender and other demographic information. Oddpodz also receives and records information from server logs from your browser including cookie information (as described below) relating to pages requested and the like.
Oddpodz does not seek to collect such information from persons under the age of 16. If you are under the age of 16, please do not submit any such information to us. If you are the parent or guardian of a person under the age of 16 who has provided such information to us, please inform us (through the Web site or email address listed above) and we will remove such information from our database as described further below.
In addition, no person (of any age) is required to provide us with the personally identifiable information we request. If you do not wish to provide such information, you are free not to do so. Your provision of requested information to us through our Web site or other means is presumed by us to be voluntary and with your consent to the uses described herein. If after submitting personally identifiable information to us, you wish to “opt-out,” please contact us as noted above and we will remove your information from our database as set forth below in the section titled “Managing Your Information.” Please know that such a decision will not stop advertising or content that is generated prior to the time when we can accomplish the removal of your information.
Oddpodz uses the information you provide to us to customize advertising and content that we present to you, to contact you concerning specials and new products and to enhance our product offerings. Oddpodz will not sell or rent your personally identifiable information to any third party except when: You have been given an opportunity to “opt out” of sharing the information and have declined to exercise that right within the time period provided; Oddpodz must share the information in order to provide a product or service that you have requested, in which case we will demand that any third party we use to fulfill your order agree that it does not have the right to use the personally identifiable information other than to fulfill your request; or Oddpodz is required to respond to subpoena, court orders or other legal process requiring such disclosure.
In addition, we may share your information with our strategic partners and other third parties with whom we have a written agreement that provides for a cooperative, mutually beneficial commercial relationship. In these cases, we may not give you notice or an opportunity to opt out, but we will obligate that third party to treat your information as confidential, and not to use it for any purposes other than those for which we are authorized to use it.

SECURITY

We use reasonable measures to limit the disclosure of the data you provide to us only to certain staff within Oddpodz and its affiliates (i.e. staff whose job it is to process your inquiries and survey answers or otherwise to administer the Web site, and those staff involved in the provision of Oddpodz services and products which may be of interest to you) and to require that they process the data only for the purposes identified in this Statement.
