This Web site (“Site”) is developed, operated and updated by Rawlco Radio Ltd. (“Rawlco”). Rawlco respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it.

Personal Information includes information such as your name, user name, address, postal code, telephone number, e-mail address, IP address, age, marital status, income level, education level, intentions, preferences and opinions.

- Why We Collect Information You may be required to register or otherwise voluntarily provide Personal Information in order to access some specific features of the Site or enter a contest or to be provided with a product or service that you have requested. You may choose not to provide the Personal Information, but this may lead to decreased functionality of the Site for you and will prevent us from providing you with certain products or services. However, you can still access and visit many of the Site's features. We also may request you to voluntarily provide Personal Information that is not required to access features of our site. This information enables Rawlco to make general improvements to the Site, ensures that content standards of certain sections are upheld, enables us to contact prize winners and better serve your specific interests. Rawlco may collect Aggregated Information through the use of cookies or by other means. We use this information to assess general usage patterns, including identifying repeat users, collecting demographic information, administering and making improvements to the Site to tailor our visitors’ experiences and to display content according to a visitor’s preferences. Subject to agreements with third parties, Rawlco may match Aggregated Information with parameters established by third parties, without releasing Personal Information or information that may specifically identify our users. This may be done in order to describe the Site or services to trading partners, advertisers or other third parties by disclosing certain general statistics such as the percentage of our users who are men, women, professionals, etc. Rawlco, our affiliated companies, business partners and such other third party as we may designate reserve the right to use, maintain, update, disclose and/or sell Aggregate Information to third parties.
