customize the advertising and content you see, fulfill your requests for
products and services, improve our services, contact you, conduct research, and
provide anonymous reporting for internal and external clients.
Children
• When a child under age 13 attempts to register with Grant Search Link, we ask
the child to have a parent or guardian create a Grant Search Link Family Account
to obtain parental permission.
• Grant Search Link does not contact children under age 13 about special offers
or for marketing purposes without a parent's permission.
• Grant Search Link does not ask a child under age 13 for more personal
information, as a condition of participation, than is reasonably necessary to
participate in a given activity or promotion.
Information Sharing and Disclosure
• Grant Search Link does not rent, sell, or share personal information about you
with other people or non-affiliated companies except to provide products or
services you've requested, when we have your permission, or under the following
circumstances:
o We provide the information to trusted partners who work on behalf of or with
Grant Search Link under confidentiality agreements. These companies may use your
personal information to help Grant Search
Link communicate with you about offers from Grant Search Link and our marketing
partners. However, these companies do not have any independent right to share
this information.
o We have a parent's permission to share the information if the user is a child
under age 13. Parents have the option of allowing Grant Search Link to collect
and use their child's information without consenting to Grant Search Link
sharing of this information with people and companies who may use this
information for their own purposes.
o We respond to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process, or to establish or
exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims.
o We believe it is necessary to share information in order to investigate,
prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud,
situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person,
violations of Grant Search Link's terms of use, or as otherwise required by law.
o We transfer information about you if Grant Search Link is acquired by or
merged with another company. In this event, Grant Search Link will notify you
before information about you is transferred and becomes subject to a different
privacy policy.
• Grant Search Link displays targeted advertisements based on personal
information. Advertisers (including ad serving companies) may assume that people
who interact with, view, or click targeted ads meet the targeting criteria—for
example, women ages 18-24 from a particular geographic area.
o Grant Search Link does not provide any personal information to the advertiser
when you interact with or view a targeted ad. However, by interacting with or
viewing an ad you are consenting to the possibility that the advertiser will
make the assumption that you meet the targeting criteria used to display the ad.
o Grant Search Link advertisers include financial service providers (such as
banks, insurance agents, stock brokers and mortgage lenders) and non-financial
companies (such as stores, airlines, and software companies).
• Grant Search Link works with vendors, partners, advertisers, and other service
providers in different industries and categories of business.
