The www.TextnDrive.com website as well as any mobile version or application thereof, including the platform allowing the access to the Text'nDrive™ Software and the Services (the "Sites") are operated by HandsFree Software together with its various subsidiaries, affiliates, and divisions (collectively, "we", "us", "our" or "Text'nDrive™"). Text'nDrive™ values its clients and respect your privacy. Text'nDrive™ recognizes that it must maintain and use your personal information responsibly.

By accessing the Sites and the services provided by Text'nDrive™ (the “Servicesâ€�), you hereby agree to all of the terms and conditions of this Policy and consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information as described in this Policy. You are responsible to ensure that your access to the Sites, the Services and material available on or through it is legal in each jurisdiction in or through which you access or view the Sites, Services or such material.

If we decide to change our Policy, we will post these changes on our Sites so that you can be updated as to what information we gather, how that information may be used and whether (and how) it may be disclosed to any third parties. Following the posting of such changes, your continued use of the Sites will constitute your acceptance of these changes and you will be bound by such changes.

WHAT PERSONAL INFORMATION IS COLLECTED?

From our website: Every time you visit the Sites or use the Services, the following information is automatically obtained and compiled: your internet protocol (IP) address and the domain name registry information associated with that IP address; identification of your internet browser, operating system and hardware platform you are using; the date and time of your visit; the name and address (URL) of the web page you viewed immediately prior to accessing the Sites; your entire query (if any) that was entered into a search engine which led you to the Sites; and any other user behavior data. This information may be captured and stored in our log files. Additionally, the complete record of your actions at the Sites, including all pages visited, time spent at each page, the information sent or received and the names of all files uploaded or downloaded is collected. This tracking information may be compiled by us in the aggregate primarily to identify demographic data regarding our clients.

We will also collect personal information from you if you provide your personal information to us, such as by setting up a user account and password at the time you register for an account with Text'nDrive™, logging into your account, providing information in your account(s), communicating with us by e-mail, or otherwise or if you complete an entry form to participate in an online survey or request for information.

If a parent or guardian discovers that his or her child has provided us with personally identifiable information, such parent or guardian has the right, upon request, to view the information provided by the child and/or to require that it be deleted from our records. In such a case we ask that the parent or guardian of the child contact us at support@TextnDrive.com for such purpose.
