This information may include personal information and other information such as your name, billing and mailing address, e-mail address, phone number, and participation in events and promotions that we offer.

In general, Arete Throws Nation® uses personal information it collects to pursue our mission and operations, including the management of our Arete Throws Nation Services, the operation of our business, and to engage in related activities. This may include storing information about you in connection with your profile so that we can recognize you when you access your Account and make offers available to you based on information you provided. We also may share some of the information you provide with other users, for purposes of enabling comparisons among or between various users.

You should assume that we will use all information for all lawful purposes except insofar as this Privacy Policy expressly limits our use of your information in some way.  We reserve the right, but do not undertake a duty, to notify you of court orders, subpoenas or other legal process if allowed. If you do not want us to respond to legal process compelling us to disclose your information, you need to seek a valid order permitting us to refuse to disclose it and serve the order on us at least 3 business days before the response deadline.

We reserve the right to use, disclose, retain, share and otherwise deal with all information collected via the Arete Throws Nation Services internally or to third parties, for any lawful purpose or to prevent harm to us or others. For example, and without limitation, in our discretion we may:

• Disclose information to service providers and others in order to deal with requests and questions from you; to personalize or enhance your experience; and to assist or respond to our consultants (including auditors and lenders);

• Disclose information to government regulators, law enforcement authorities or alleged victims of identify theft, as well as voluntary disclosures; and

• Disclose any matter relating to the Arete Throws Nation Services or your account not listed in this Privacy Policy, but which is not prohibited by law from being disclosed.

We do not purport to have listed all possible disclosures that we might make. This Privacy Policy is intended to help you understand our general practices. This Privacy Policy is not a promise that your information will never be disclosed except as described above. For example, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access information transmitted to or contained on the Arete Throws Nation Services, technologies may malfunction or not work as anticipated, or someone might access, abuse or misuse information, despite a lack of permission. Although we use what we believe to be commercially reasonable practices to protect your privacy, that does not mean, and you should not expect it to mean, that your information or communications will always be private or protected.

We generally will retain information for as long as required, allowed or for as long as we believe it useful. If you cease using the Arete Throws Nation Services, or your permission to use the Arete Throws Nation Services is terminated, we may continue to use and disclose your personal information in accordance with this Policy. We do not undertake retention obligations through this Privacy Policy. We may dispose of information in our discretion without notice, subject to applicable law.

We reserve the right to send you service announcements or similar administrative messages (for example, if we need to temporarily suspend the Arete Throws Nation Services for maintenance), without offering you the opportunity to opt out of receiving them.

10. Security and Passwords

Arete Throws Nation® takes what it believes to be commercially reasonable physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect the personal information we collect.

If you create an account on the Arete Throws Nation Services, you may be asked to choose a password for your account, which can be used to access information associated with your account (including personal information).

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account, and we will attribute activities that occur using your account information (e.g., through the use of your password) to you.
