Privacy


AuctionSniper.com has created this statement in order to demonstrate its firm commitment to privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for this website: www.auctionsniper.com

We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our Web site. We use cookies to deliver content specific to your interests and to save your password so you don't have to reenter it each time you visit our site.

Our site's registration form requires users to give us contact information (like their name and email address) and unique identifiers. The customer's contact information is used to contact the visitor when necessary. Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings; see the choice/opt-out section below. Unique identifiers are collected to verify the user's identity and for use as account numbers in our record system.

This site contains links to other sites. AuctionSniper.com is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such Web sites. This site shares information with partner sites that supply services to users of this website on a need to know basis. For example, if users choose to use a third-party service such as picture hosting or payments, this site will share information needed to properly execute those services. This site will not share user information or email addresses with third parties for marketing purposes unless the user has indicated that he/she wants to get marketing or promotional notices.

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, including to comply with legal, regulatory, accounting, or reporting requirements. The criteria used to determine our retention periods include:
  • The length of time we have an ongoing relationship with you.
  • Whether there is a legal obligation to which we are subject.
  • Whether retention is advisable considering our legal position (e.g., regarding applicable statutes of limitations, litigation, or regulatory investigations).
