Privacy Policy

 

Cylay Usage Policy

We will not collect, use or disclose a member’s personal information without their consent, express or implied, except as required or permitted by law.
Members can remove their entire membership information completely from our database, should they desire to discontinue any and all association with Cylay.
Security
The security of our members’ information is a top priority for Cylay and we endeavor to maintain appropriate safeguards to assure its continued safety. Although we cannot take responsibility for any theft, misuse or unauthorized disclosure, loss, alteration or destruction of data by a third party, we take reasonable precautions to prevent such occurrences.

Website
Any member transactions requiring a password are encrypted. Any paymentss are securely processed by PayPal using a Digital Certificate. No members' payment information, such as credit card numbers, addresses, amounts, etc. are stored in the Cylay system. The Cylay registration database and application components are securely stored on an in-house company-owned and managed array of servers, undergoing regularly scheduled back-up and maintenance procedures.

Cylay Data Collection
Cylay’s central data repository is a secure database that interfaces with the website. All private member information is voluntarily entered by our members. In addition, we do collect the email address from website visitors who search for an iPhone IMEI or Cylay ID.

Website Traffic Data
Cylay collects information to improve the overall quality of our website. Each time a person visits this site, Cylay records the visitor’s domain name, IP address, referral data and browser/platform type (e.g. a Netscape browser on a Macintosh platform). Cylay also counts, tracks and aggregates information about the visitor’s activity into our analysis of general traffic flows at the Cylay website (e.g. tracking where traffic comes from and how it flows within the site). Cylay may merge this information into group data, which may then be shared on an aggregate basis with potential advertisers, research firms and business partners. However, Cylay will not disclose your individual identity or personal data. If and when Cylay does present aggregated information to potential advertisers, research firms and business partners, none of these agents will be able to identify you or contact you.

Email
No email addresses employed in correspondence with Cylay will be used or collected for the purposes of reselling to a third party, nor will they be added to a bulk e-mailing list.


Cookies
This website uses “cookies,” a technology that installs a small, unique identifier text file on a website user’s computer to permit the website to recognize future visits using that computer. The sole purpose of the cookie is to identify your membership id when you visit the site so you don't have to manually enter it into the system. You can configure your browser to reject all cookies or notify you when a cookie is set. Although you may choose to decline cookies, doing so will hardly affect your use of the website by having to provide your membership id manually each time it is needed by the system.


Cylay Members
We keep any information provided by members in our database until such time as it may be removed or renewed at the initiation of our members. Members will receive an email shortly before the expiration date to remind them to renew the listing. Any registry entries that have expired will be automatically removed from the system.

Accuracy
It is our members’ responsibility to check their personal accounts in order to verify, update or correct any information about their iPhone device, as is appropriate, as well as any relevant personal information. Cylay stores only such information as has been volunteered by our members during the registration process.
 

Removing Information
Should any member desire to discontinue any and all association with the Cylay Registry, the member can remove all of his or her information directly from our system by using the feature contained in the website. The Cylay Registry will permanently remove all data for a member that terminates his or her membership.

Legal Disclosure
Cylay may disclose your personal information as required or permitted by law. We may disclose information in the following circumstances to the following bodies:

A government institution or other person or entity that has asserted its lawful authority to obtain the information. Cylay will make every effort to ensure that only information specifically itemized in the request is provided;
A court, person or entity producing a subpoena or court order requiring Cylay to provide the information. Cylay will make every effort to ensure that only information specifically itemized in the request is provided;
An appropriate legal agent, where Cylay has reasonable grounds to believe the information could be useful in the investigation of unlawful activity; and/or
Cylay’s legal counsel.
Third-Party Service Providers
Cylay will not share your personal information with any service providers.

Finders
Cylay facilitates the return of lost iPhone devices without disclosing personal information concerning either the finder or the owner to the opposite party involved. All recoveries are enabled through our system and we highly recommend that both parties should remain anonymous to one another, if possible.
