We only use this

effectiveness of our site, we do collect
some generic information about our visitors.
Our web servers automatically recognise
a visitor's domain name, the web page
from which a visitor enters our site,
which pages a visitor visits on our
site, and how much time a visitor spends
on each page. We may use anonymous tracking
technologies to collect, store and sometimes
track information for statistical purposes
and to improve the products and services
we provide.
We aggregate this
information and use it to evaluate and
improve our site. We store information
that we collect through cookies, log
files, clear gifs, and/or third party
sources for instance to verify your
address or update your information and
to create a "profile" of your
preferences. We tie your personally
identifiable information to information
in the profile, in order to provide
tailored promotions and marketing offers
and to improve the content of the site
for you. A cookie is a small text file

USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Vendors: We employ
other companies and individuals to perform
functions on our behalf. Examples might
include fulfilling orders, sending e-mail,
removing repetitive information from
customer lists, analysing data, providing
marketing assistance, providing search
results and links and providing customer
service. They have access to personal
information needed to perform their
functions, but may not use it for other
purposes.
Newsletters: If you
wish to subscribe to our newsletter,
we will use your name and email address
to send the newsletter to you.
Service-related Announcements:
We will send you strictly service-related
announcements on rare occasions when
it is necessary to do so. For instance,
if our service is temporarily suspended
for maintenance, or the delivery of
a service or product is delayed we might
send you an email, or if there is some
service issue with something you might
have ordered. Generally, you may not
opt-out of these communications, which
are not promotional in nature. If you
do not wish to receive them, you have
the option to cancel your subscription
or order by contacting news@faresaver.com.au.
Exceptional Circumstances:
If Faresaver Pty Limited, or any of
its lines of businesses or affiliated
companies, is sold or disposed of as
a going concern, whether by merger,
sale of assets or otherwise, the relevant
customer database of Faresaver Pty Limited
could, in whole or in part, be sold
as part of that transaction. In such
transactions, personal information will
be subject to the promises made in any
pre-existing Privacy Policy in effect
when the information was obtained. In
the event Faresaver Pty Limited goes
through a business transition, such
as a merger, acquisition by another
company, or sale of all or a portion
of its assets, your personally identifiable
information will likely be among the
assets transferred. You will be notified
via email of any such change in ownership
or control of your personal information.
We also may have to release personally
identifying information when it is necessary
to comply with judicial or other government
subpoenas, warrants, orders, or to protect
the rights, property, or safety of Faresaver
Pty Limited or others. This includes
exchanging information with other companies
and organisations for fraud protection.
