By accepting the eFax.com Corporate Terms of Service, you expressly consent to the use and disclosure of your personally identifiable and other personal information as set forth in this Privacy Policy document.

We ask you to provide information when you register for the eFax.com services. This information includes your name and email address, while other information such as mailing address and phone number remain optional.

It is eFax.com's policy to respect the privacy of its members. Although we do not sell or rent any personally identifiable information about you to any third party, we may, in certain cases where you access our site from other third party sites, release your email address to such third party. We do not disclose certain pieces of information, such as your password, PIN, or eFax number at all. We may aggregate personally identifiable information and disclose such information to third parties in aggregate for a number of business purposes, including running and enhancing the services, but in these situations we do not disclose to other entities any information that could be used to personally identify you. Also, upon your consent, we may use information about you to provide you with ads or offers from advertisers that we think may be relevant to you, but in these cases we do not disclose any personally identifiable information about you to third parties. On our site and via email, we may offer you the option to choose to receive electronic information about topic(s) of interest to you from other companies. If you choose to receive information from such companies, eFax.com may provide to such companies your name, email address and other pertinent information if applicable and the company may contact you directly. These programs are offered as "opt-in" programs, not as "opt-out" programs, meaning you will be contacted only if you choose to participate. We will not pass your name or email address to other companies without your permission, except as otherwise specified in this Privacy Policy Statement. In the course of using our site and our services, we automatically track certain information about you. This information may include the number and source of fax transmissions, the URL that you just came from (whether this URL is on our site or not), which URL you next go to (whether this URL is on our site or not), what browser you are using, and your IP address. We use this information in the normal operation of the site and we may disclose this information on an aggregated basis.

We use cookies on our site. Cookies are stored on your hard drive, not on our site. You are always free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, although you may miss out on some shortcuts, automation, special promotions, certain features such as shopping carts and the like.

If you send us correspondence, such as emails or letters, or if other users or third parties send us correspondence about your use of our services, we may collect such information into a file specific to you. We use information in the file we maintain about you, and other information we obtain from your current and past use of the service, to resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems and enforce our user agreement.

eFax.com acts as a passive conduit for the distribution and receipt of your fax transmissions and therefore will not monitor, edit, or disclose the contents of a Member's private communications unless required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (1) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on eFax.com; (2) protect and defend the rights or property of eFax.com; or (3) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of its members or the public. Member should also be aware (and hereby agrees) that certain technical processing of and access to fax and email messages and their content, eFax.com may be required to: (a) route the messages; (b) conform to connecting networks' technical requirements; (c) conform to the limitations of the Service; or (d) conform to other similar requirements.

We use industry-standard efforts to safeguard the confidentiality of your transmissions (as well as your personally identifiable information), such as firewalls and SSL technology. These are the same technologies that most websites use to safeguard credit card information and other personal information. However, that said, "perfect security" does not exist on the Internet (or anywhere, for that matter.)

As part of our service, we will send to you your incoming fax transmissions, but in addition we may send to you periodic emails containing information about us, updates on new service features, service usage tips, information about third party services that are likely to be of interest to our members, and member satisfaction questions. In addition to the periodic emails, we may use your email address to send you administrative notices about your account (such as notices about pending activities).

Our policy only addresses the use and disclosure of information we collect from you. To the extent that you disclose your information to other parties, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the personal information you disclose to them. To the extent that we use third party advertisers, they adhere to their own privacy customs and policies. In some instances we use third party providers of service who may collect information on our behalf in order to fulfill a service. In those instances, the use of your information is for service fulfillment only. However, the information provided may be used by the third party in aggregate. Since we do not control the privacy policies of third parties, we encourage you to ask questions before you disclose your personal information to others.

Although eFax.com will take reasonable measures to exclude your name, mailing address, email address, account phone number, communications and other information from any disclosures, eFax.com may (and you fully authorize eFax.com to): (i) as you expressly direct eFax.com, release your email address to any other party you may specifically designate; (ii) as compelled by law, make disclosure of information related to you to the government or other third parties, pursuant to governmental authorities with the requisite jurisdiction such as federal or state courts or law enforcement agencies. In addition, you understand that, as with any transmission medium, there is a risk that third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications.

Finally, it is our intention to use legally available means to prevent distribution and receipt of unsolicited commercial faxes ("junk faxes") through the service. You understand and acknowledge that distribution of junk faxes through the eFax.com service is prohibited, and at eFax.com's option and without further notice, eFax.com may use technologies and procedures, such as filters, that may monitor your communications and terminate junk faxes without delivering them. We would like to ask that any member that is annoyed by receipt of such junk faxes, please report such activity to eFax.com via our eFax.com support form so that we can attempt to prevent further junk faxes from the same source.
