Privacy Policy

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, Mutual Fund Guide collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Mutual Fund Guide's purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Mutual Fund Guide's visitors use its website. From time to time, Mutual Fund Guide may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

Mutual Fund Guide also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on mutualfundguide.com blogs/sites. Mutual Fund Guide only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that commenter IP addresses and email addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog/site where the comment was left.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to Mutual Fund Guide's websites choose to interact with Mutual Fund Guide in ways that require Mutual Fund Guide to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Mutual Fund Guide gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up at mutualfundguide.com to provide a username and email address. Those who engage in transactions with Mutual Fund Guide are asked to provide additional information, including as necessary the personal and financial information required to process those transactions. In each case, Mutual Fund Guide collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with Mutual Fund Guide. Mutual Fund Guide does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

Mutual Fund Guide may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. Mutual Fund Guide may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, Mutual Fund Guide does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Mutual Fund Guide discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on Mutual Fund Guide's behalf or to provide services available at Mutual Fund Guide's websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using Mutual Fund Guide's websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. Mutual Fund Guide will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, Mutual Fund Guide discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Mutual Fund Guide believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Mutual Fund Guide, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of an Mutual Fund Guide website and have supplied your email address, Mutual Fund Guide may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what's going on with Mutual Fund Guide and our products. If you send us a request (for example via email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Mutual Fund Guide takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
