We at Matchmaking Moms, Inc., a California corporation (“Matchmaking Moms”) are firmly committed to protecting your personal information and informing you about how we handle it. We have created this privacy policy (“Privacy Policy”) to demonstrate our commitment to protecting your privacy and to inform you how the information you submit to us and the information that we collect automatically from you is handled. This Privacy Policy is intended to only apply to your transactions and activities, and the data gathered, on the Matchmaking Moms Site, Matchmaking Moms Site, Matchmaking Moms site (collectively the “Websites”), email communications between members of the Websites (“Participants”), although it is not intended to apply to any other website or offline point of contact between Participants Matchmaking Moms or any other company, and consumers. Please review this Privacy Policy periodically as we may modify it from time to time. This Privacy Policy was last revised on August 2005. Each time you visit the Websites or provide us with information, by doing so you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy at that time.

ELIGIBLITY

YOU MUST BE AN INDIVIDUAL WHO IS AT LEAST EIGHTEEN (18) YEARS OLD TO PARTICIPATE ON THE WEBSITES.
Matchmaking Moms will not create matches for anyone under the age of 18. All adults are welcome to explore the site, complete the Relationship Questionnaire and obtain a Personality Profile. As per the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, any information input by minors will be purged from our database.

OUR USE OF YOUR INFORMATION

Matchmaking Moms collects a wide variety of information you provide in order to find matches, offering the highest possible chance of a successful long-term relationship or marriage for your family/friend. None of the information collected by Matchmaking Moms as part of the intake questionnaire is used by the matching engine nor is the personality profile made accessible to the public, other users of the site, or anyone not employed by Matchmaking Moms directly. This information is held strictly confidential and can be deleted at the user's request. Information collected during membership sign-up, which may be shared with other users of Matchmaking Moms will only be shown to potential matching candidates. Non-subscribing visitors to Matchmaking Moms are not allowed access to this information in any way.

Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may disclose information you provide if required to do so by law or if we have a good faith belief that disclosure is necessary to (1) comply with the law or with legal process served on us; (2) protect and defend our rights or property; or (3) act in an emergency to protect someone's safety. In addition, as we develop our business, we may buy or sell assets and, depending on the transaction, your personally identifiable information may be one of the transferred assets. In the event that we are acquired by another company, your personal information may be part of the assets transferred to the acquiring party.

CHANGING OUR PRIVACY POLICY

If we make any material changes in our privacy practices that do not affect user information already stored in our database, we will post a prominent notice on the Websites notifying users of the change. In some cases we will email users who have opted to receive communications from us where we post the Website notice, notifying them of the changes in our privacy practices.

INFORMATION YOU SUPPLY TO US AT REGISTRATION

To process subscriptions and/or product purchases, we may require your name, billing address, phone number, email address, shipping address and credit card information. Information gathered during product purchases is used primarily to process your order.

You will be similarly notified of subscription renewal transactions when they occur. Email contact Information provided by you is also used primarily to notify you of potential match candidates identified by Matchmaking Moms based on your matching criteria and profile. Once you begin Matchmaking Moms's registration process, we may also occasionally send you newsletters and email you notifications of special events or product offerings at Matchmaking Moms. If you have started, but not completed, the registration process, we may also send you email messages encouraging you to complete the process and become a subscriber.

PUBLIC FORUMS

Matchmaking Moms makes message boards available to its users and visitors. Please remember that any information that is disclosed in these areas becomes public information and you should exercise caution when deciding to disclose any personally identifying information.

Matchmaking Moms is where family/friends start to network for their own family/friends by way of our service. In this section you, the match maker, register for the service. Next, you create a profile describing your family/friend whom you’d like to set up. As a Matchmaking Moms member, you can match other registered people’s family/friends to your own. Follow up by sending your own family/friend an emailed note regarding your choice of a potential mate’s name and email address or to set up the actual date. We will keep this information in our database, and send that person an email containing your name and inviting them to visit our site to accept the invitation to plan a date. This email will also include a quick and easy way for them to accept, reject, reschedule, or remove their information from our database, if they desire. We ask that you do not abuse this feature by entering names and addresses of those who would not be interested in Matchmaking Moms.
