How does Crashtest use my information?
Crashtest uses data provided to us from our server log files to provide
aggregated information useful to our advertisers and business partners.
In order to provide services free of charge, we display advertisements.
By knowing a little about you, Crashtest is able to deliver more relevant advertisements and content, and
hence better service, to you. In our role of delivering targeted advertisements, Crashtest plays the
middleman. Advertisers give us an advertisement and tell us the type of audience they want to reach (for
example, males over 35 years old). Crashtest takes the advertisement and displays it to users meeting that
criteria. In this process, the advertiser never has access to individual account information. This kind
of advertisement targeting is done with banner ads.
Who is collecting information?
Crashtest collects information only through its server log files.
Please be aware that Crashtest advertisers or web sites that have links
on our site may collect personally identifiable information about you. The information practices of those web
sites linked to Crashtest are not covered by this privacy statement.
Promotions that run on Crashtest may be sponsored by companies other
than Crashtest or may be cosponsored by Crashtest and another company. Some or all data collected during a
promotion may be shared with the sponsor. If data will be shared, you will be notified prior to the time of
data collection or transfer. You can decide not to participate in the promotion if you don't want your data to
be shared.
With whom does Crashtest.com share my information?
As a general rule, Crashtest will not disclose any of your personally
identifiable information except when we have your permission or under special circumstances, such as when we
believe in good faith that the law requires it or under the circumstances described below..
Business Partners & Sponsors: Crashtest may disclose your
personal information to business partners or sponsors, but this is specifically described to you prior to data
collection or prior to transferring the data. Some or all data collected during a Crashtest
promotion may be shared with a sponsor. If personally identifying data about you will be shared, we will tell
you before we collect or transfer the data.

bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or
unintentionally) Crashtest' rights or property, other Crashtest users, or anyone else that could be harmed by
such activities. Crashtest may disclose user information when we believe in good faith that the law requires
it and for administrative and other purposes that we deem necessary to maintain and improve our products and
services.
What are my choices regarding collection, use, and
distribution of my information?
On some types of Crashtest promotions, we will ask for your email
address in order to update you on your score, entries, and status in prize drawings. When you participate in
these types of promotions, you automatically receive promotion-related email, unless you choose the no-email
option that some promotions offer.
Crashtest does not sell or rent user information to anyone. We will
notify you at the time of data collection or transfer if your data will be shared with a third party and you
will always have the option of not permitting the transfer. If you do not wish to allow your data to be
shared, you can choose not to use a particular service or not to participate in certain promotions or
contests.
