Consent for Collection, Use and Disclosure
of Information |
Your use of the
Freelance-Couriers.Com

Freelance-Couriers.Com
products and services constitute your consent to the terms of this
Privacy Policy.
If you do not
agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not use the
Freelance-Couriers.Com site.
Freelance-Couriers.Com may
occasionally update this Privacy Policy. When it does,
Freelance-Couriers.Com will
also revise the “last update” date at the top of this Privacy
Policy. In addition, Freelance-Couriers.Com will seek a customer’s prior consent,
by email, for any new uses or proposed disclosures of information
collected from the customer prior to the change.
Freelance-Couriers.Com
will notify customers by email of changes to this policy that
will affect information collected from them in the future.
In certain
circumstances, however, Freelance-Couriers.Com will not inform and obtain the
consent of the customer, such as in connection with an investigation
of a breach of an agreement, contravention of laws, an emergency
where the life, health or security of an individual is threatened,
the collection of a debt or in compliance with the request of a law
enforcement agency or a court order.
A
customer may withdraw his or her consent for collection, use and
disclosure at any time by sending an email to
info(@)freelance-couriers.com
Please note that, if you do, Freelance-Couriers.Com may suspend its provision of
products and services to you.
When you
unsubscribe, if you fall within the guarantee period for any
Freelance-Couriers.Com
product and you request a refund, the guarantee will be
honoured.
Freelance-Couriers.Com collects, at the time of your registration and your sign-on

email address, home or work address, telephone number, and
information about your computer hardware and software (e.g.,
IP address, operating system, browser type, domain name, URL, access
times, and referring web site addresses).
Freelance-Couriers.Com has implemented this Privacy Policy to protect personal
information received from its customers, and to respond to any

about a third party, or that it is confidential commercial
information or attorney–client privileged communications, or that
the information relates to a breach of an agreement or a
