Privacy Policy

Your privacy is critically important to us. At SurgeMediaOnline we follow these fundamental privacy principles:

1. We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it.
2. We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products, or protect our rights.
3. We don’t store personal information on our servers unless required for the on-going operation of one of our services.

Below is our privacy policy which incorporates these goals:

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, SurgeMediaOnline collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. SurgeMediaOnline’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how SurgeMediaOnline's visitors use its website.

SurgeMediaOnline also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. SurgeMediaOnline does not use such information to identify its visitors, however, and does not disclose such information, other than under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information, as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to SurgeMediaOnline choose to interact with the website in ways that require us to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that we gather depends on the nature of the interaction. Those who engage in transactions with SurgeMediaOnline – by purchasing products, for example – are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, SurgeMediaOnline collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with SurgeMediaOnline. We do not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

SurgeMediaOnline may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. For instance, SurgeMediaOnline may monitor the most popular products on our sites or view searched keywords. SurgeMediaOnline may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, SurgeMediaOnline does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

SurgeMediaOnline discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on SurgeMediaOnline's behalf or to provide services available at SurgeMediaOnline’s website, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using SurgeMediaOnline’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. SurgeMediaOnline will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, SurgeMediaOnline discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when SurgeMediaOnline believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of SurgeMediaOnline, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of at SurgeMediaOnline.com and have supplied your email address, SurgeMediaOnline may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with SurgeMediaOnline and our products. We primarily use our various product blogs and social networking sites to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. SurgeMediaOnline takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

These cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement to compile information about you or others who use your computer. This information allows ad networks to, among other things, deliver targeted advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This Privacy Policy covers the use of cookies by SurgeMediaOnline and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.
