MasterFranchising respects each individual's right to personal privacy, and we are committed to protecting your privacy. Therefore, we provide this Privacy Policy notice to explain our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used. To make this Privacy Policy notice easy to find, we make it available on our homepage and at every point where personally identifiable information may be requested. This Privacy Policy applies solely to the information collected or submitted on the MasterFranchising.com website.

The Information We Collect and How We Use It
Because of our commitment to privacy and our understanding of the necessity for confidentiality in buying and selling businesses, MasterFranchising strives to collect as little personally identifiable information as possible from its users. However, for some of our services we may need to collect some personally identifiable information from you.

The information we collect will not be used to create customer profiles based on browsing or purchasing history. We do not supplement information collected at our website with data from other sources, such as credit history to authorize purchases or marketing data from third parties. Your email address and credit card information remains confidential and will not be distributed to any outside parties, except as necessary to process a MasterFranchising product or service you have ordered.

Email Correspondence
If you send an email to MasterFranchising, we use your return email address to answer your inquiry or comment. Such addresses are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with outside parties.

On rare occasions, if ever, MasterFranchising may send registered users an email announcement regarding a change in our service that affects their use of it.

Cookies
Cookies are small text files that a website can place on a user's computer hard drive to be a unique identifier for that user. MasterFranchising may use cookies.

Visitor Traffic Logs
MasterFranchising automatically collects IP addresses and traffic information from visitors to our site. None of this is linked to personally identifiable information. This information is aggregated into statistics to help us evaluate how visitors prefer to use and navigate our website, including the number and frequency of visits to our web pages and the length of visits.

Information Sharing
We may use aggregate traffic information to tell a partner or advertiser that X number of individuals visited their ad or a certain area on our website, but we do not disclose anything that could be used to identify any individual visitor.

Credit card transactions are handled by a third-party financial institution, which receives the credit card number and other personally identifying information only to verify the credit card numbers and process transactions.

We may disclose and use personally identifiable information in special circumstances when we believe, in good faith, that such release is reasonably necessary to (i) comply with law or court order, (ii) enforce or apply the terms of any of our user agreements, or (iii) protect the rights, property, or safety of MasterFranchising, our users, or others.

Links to Other Websites
MasterFranchising may contain links to third-party websites, such as the websites of specific businesses for sale, the corporate sites of member business brokers, and other third-party business services. In order to use these third-party services you will be directed to pages on their websites, which may or may not be co-branded with the MasterFranchising logo. Remember that any information that you provide on any third-party page is being provided directly to the third-party service provider and is not subject to this Privacy Policy. We recommend that you review the privacy policy at each third-party website to determine how that site protects your privacy. The MasterFranchising Privacy Policy applies solely to information collected on MasterFranchising.com.
