It also describes the choices available to you regarding the use of, your access to, and how to update and correct your personal information. Our default privacy settings limit the Personal Information displayed in Your Profile to Your Contacts and You control the Contacts with whom You share the Personal Information through the privacy settings on the Edit Profile page. "Personal Information," as used in this Privacy Policy, is information that allows a person to directly identify an individual, such as the individual's name or email address, and information that we combine directly with such identifying information. This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and is subject to the Vmoso Terms & Conditions ("Agreement"). Any capitalized terms not defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Agreement. By using Vmoso, You expressly consent to the information handling practices described in this Privacy Policy.
1. How Vmoso Operates
Vmoso provides a platform ("Vmoso Platform") that enables registered users ("Vmoso Members") to share tasks, files, chats, comments and profiles through the various Vmoso Websites and Applications on the Vmoso Platform.
2. Collection of Personal Information
We collect information for our Customers, if You are a client of one of our Customers and would no longer like to be contacted by one of our Customers that use our service, please contact the Customer that you interact with directly.
Personal Information You Provide, Vmoso Member Data. (1) You must register for a Vmoso ID, as defined in the Agreement, to become a Vmoso Member. When You register for a Vmoso ID, You are required to provide certain information, including Your name, email address ("Personal Information" and a password that You select. You also may provide other Personal Information within Your Vmoso Profile, such as Your photo, company, and job title. You may choose not to display some of this information, causing it not to be displayed to some of Your Vmoso Contacts. Please note, however, that even if You choose not to display Personal Information in Your Vmoso Profile, that information will be accessible by Vmoso. Although we allow You to set privacy options that limit access to Your Vmoso Profile, please be aware that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable. We cannot control the actions of other users with whom You may choose to share Your Vmoso Profile and information. Therefore, we cannot and do not guarantee that Personal Information You post on Your Vmoso Profile will not be viewed by unauthorized persons. We are not responsible for circumvention of any privacy settings or security measures contained on the Vmoso website.

Vmoso collects information under the direction of its Customers, and has no direct relationship with the individuals whose personal data it processes.
You can import contacts from your Outlook or other email account address book to invite them to become members of our website. We collect the username and password for the email account from which you wish to import your contacts, and will only use your personal information for that purpose.
3. Passive Data Collection
A. Like most web-based services, Vmoso automatically receives and records information on our server logs from Your browser when You use Vmoso Platform. Vmoso may use a variety of methods, including clear GIFs (also known as "web beacons"), and "cookies" to collect this information. The information that Vmoso collects with these automated methods may include, for example, Your IP address, Vmoso cookie information, a unique device or user ID, browser type, system type, the content and pages that You access on the Vmoso Platform, and the "referring URL" (i.e., the page from which You navigated to the Vmoso Platform).
B. We use passively-collected information to administer, operate, and improve Vmoso Platform and our other services and systems, and to provide services and content that are tailored to You, this may include providing customized advertisements and monitoring and reporting of the effectiveness of marketing campaigns. If we directly combine any information gathered through passive means with Personal Information, we treat the combined information as Personal Information under this Privacy Policy. Otherwise, we use information collected by passive means in aggregated or other non-personally identifiable forms.
C. Websites visited before visiting Vmoso or a Network might place Personal Information within the URL of Your browser during a visit to that previous website. Vmoso may unintentionally collect that information as part of referring URL information that it collects.
D. Also, please be aware that third parties may set cookies, gifs or use other means of passively collecting information about Your use of their services.
