Privacy Policy

My50 is committed to protecting your privacy. We aim to provide a service that you can enjoy without compromising this privacy.
This Privacy Policy forms part of, and should be read in conjunction with the Terms Of Use of this site. By using this site, you are accepting the Terms Of Use and consequently this Privacy Policy. Changes to this Policy will be made as outlined in the Terms Of Use.

This Policy outlines how My50 collects and uses data.

When a user registers on the site, some personal information is recorded such as their name and email address. Other anonymous information is also recorded that is not unique to that user such as their date of birth and gender.

When a user has registered, they have the option to make their 'list of things to do' public. Should they select this option through the 'About You' section of the site, they are agreeing to allow their information to be made available for any user to see, and as such, accepting the Terms Of Use of the site is also an agreement to allow this information to be made available on the site.

We do not sell or share personal information with any third party. We also do not sell or share email addresses of our users.
We do however use general anonymous information for statistical analysis to determine, for example, the age range of our users, the total number of users or the most popular areas of the site. This general information helps us to improve the site and provide more relevant services and advertising.

My50 reserves the right to sell any anonymous aggregate information collected.

My50 uses third party advertising agencies who may or may not use cookies when displaying adverts on our site. Cookies are small data files that are stored on your computer and are referenced in future web sessions. Advertising agencies may use cookie information to determine, for example, how many times you have viewed an advert or if you have clicked on an advert. Cookies cannot deliver viruses or run programs and are widely used by most sites. Most web browsers allow you to turn off the use of cookies, although this may result in some features on other sites becoming unavailable.

Personal information submitted to the My50 site by a user cannot be referenced by an advertising agency.

My50 does not accept responsibility for the Privacy Policies of any advertising agency, or any sites linked to My50, or from My50.
