PALTALK PICTURE REQUIREMENTS. Please follow the following guidelines when


submitting a picture. Paltalk strives to provide the best possible user
experience for all of its members, and this includes allowing users to express
themselves in their own unique ways. Paltalk allows you to submit up to 10
pictures of yourself, including one primary picture and 9 secondary pictures.
Non-paying members can only view primary pictures, and paying members can view
all pictures. Paltalk will screen all primary pictures within 48 hours after

pictures will not be displayed until Paltalk approves them. Pictures may not be
blank or of poor quality, may not be copyrighted, may not contain the image of a

clearly display their face. Picture cannot contain text or contact information.
Occasionally, with your permission, Paltalk will feature your pictures in
various places throughout Paltalk, such as Paltalk Today, the Paltalk homepage,
or other locations. If you wish to have your primary picture considered for
display in these areas or others simply access the privacy section of your
Paltalk People profile and modify the appropriate setting.

NO SOLICITATION; NO DENIGRATION. As a condition to your use of Paltalk, you


agree that you will not either directly or indirectly (a) solicit, cause, or
assist in soliciting or causing, any employee, officer, director, agent,
administrator, palhelp, consultant or any other person that is employed by,

Paltalk's products and/or services; (d) aid, abet or authorize any person or
entity to engage in any of the foregoing.

ROOM RATINGS. Group Chat Rooms are "rated" in order to enable users to determine
what language and images are appropriate and may be expected. The ratings are
guidelines that are enforced by the administrators of each chat room, and are
not to be regarded as an assurance that the content will be safe or acceptable
to you or anyone under eighteen (18) years of age. For example, in a "G-Rated
Room," no foul language is permitted, nor are pictures involving adult themes
(nudity or violence, for example). In an "R-Rated Room," some offensive language
and content may occur; accordingly, you must be at least eighteen (18) years old
to participate. In an "A-Rated Room," you should expect offensive language and
content and you must be at least eighteen (18) years old to participate in such
a room. Paltalk is not liable for any assumptions that you make when entering
any given chat room or for any inappropriately rated chat rooms and you assume
all risk in joining any chat room or permitting anyone under eighteen (18) years
old to join any chat room.

HOSTING A CHAT ROOM. In accordance with the Terms of Service, you have the
ability to create your own room on Paltalk. If you are the host of a room and
another user is not behaving in a manner that is consistent with the Terms of
Service as applicable to your room, you (and certain people authorized by you),
have various options to address such behavior. By "RIGHT CLICKING" on the name
of the person that is not behaving appropriately, you will see a menu of
choices, including: (a) removing that person's ability to speak ("Remove Mic"),
(b) removing that person from your room ("Bounce"), and (c) alerting Paltalk
personnel ("Alert Admin of Misconduct"). In addition, you can add the user to
your PalList, RIGHT CLICK on the user's name and click on "Block User," which
will prevent the user from contacting you (except if you are in a group with
that User). When creating your own room, more information will be available to
you.

rights granted herein.

Uses of Information

Paltalk's primary goal in collecting personal information is to provide you, the


user, with a customized experience on Paltalk and through our partners. This
includes personalization services, interactive communications, and many other
types of services, most of which are completely free to you. In order to provide
services free of charge, we display advertisements and encourage your
participation. By knowing a little about you, Paltalk is able to deliver more
relevant advertisements and content, and hence better service, to you.

In our role of delivering targeted advertisements, Paltalk plays the middleman.


Advertisers give us advertisements and tell us the type of audience they want to
reach (for example, males over 35 years old). Paltalk displays the advertisement
to users meeting the specified criteria. In this process, the advertiser never
has access to individual user information. This kind of advertisement targeting
is done with banner ads as well as promotional email through Paltalk and its
affiliates. You will only receive special offers via email from Paltalk if you
have indicated in your account preferences, or at some other time, that you
would like to receive them.

Personally identifiable information:

* Agents
We use outside credit card processing companies to bill you for Paltalk
services. These companies do not retain, share, store or use personally
identifiable information for any other purposes.
We use outside email delivery systems to contact you and provide you with
pertinent information via email. These companies do not retain, share, store or
use personally identifiable information for any other purposes.

* Advertising
We use third-party advertising companies and advertising networks to serve ads
to you on our behalf when you visit our Web site. These companies may use
information (not including personal information such as your name, address email
address or telephone number) about your visits to this and other web sites in
order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.

* Legal Disclaimer
We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable information as
required by law and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our
rights and/or to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal
process served on our Web site.

Log Files
As is true of most Web sites, we gather certain information automatically and
store it in log files. This information includes internet protocol (IP)
addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages,
operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data.

We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to administer
the site and to track users' movements around the site.

We do not link this automatically-collected data to personally identifiable


information except during special promotions such as free trials when
subscription IP addresses are temporarily tied to personally identifiable
information.

Cookies
A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user‟s computer for record-
keeping purposes. We use session ID cookies on this site to maintain your
subscription and maintain your account. We do not link the information we store
in cookies to any personally identifiable information you submit while on our
site. We use session cookies to make it easier for you to navigate our site. A
session ID cookie expires when you close your browser.

Clear Gifs
We employ a software technology called clear gifs that help us better manage
content on our site by informing us what content is effective. Clear gifs are
tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are
used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which
are stored on a user‟s computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on
Web pages and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. We
do not tie the information gathered by clear gifs to our customers' personally
identifiable information.

We use clear gifs in our HTML-based emails to let us know which emails have been
opened by recipients. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of certain
communications and the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. If you would
like to opt-out of these emails, please see “Choice and Opt-out.”

Third Party Advertisers


The ads appearing on this Web site are delivered to users by a Paltalk
proprietary ad serving system. We share Web site usage information about users
with reputable third party ad networks for the purpose of targeting our banner
advertisements on Paltalk software.

We use third-party advertising companies and advertising networks to serve ads


to you on our behalf when you visit our Web site. These companies may use
information (not including personal information such as your name, address email
address or telephone number) about your visits to this and other web sites in
order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you.

Links to Other Sites


Paltalk contains links to other sites that are not owned or controlled by
Paltalk. Please be aware that we, Paltalk, are not responsible for the privacy
practices of such other sites.
We encourage you to be aware when you leave our site and to read the privacy
statements of each and every Web site that collects personally identifiable
information.

This privacy statement applies only to information collected by Paltalk.

By visiting this Site, all visitors consent to the collection, maintenance, and

Paltalk Discussion Rooms


If you use a discussion room on Paltalk, you should be aware that any personally
identifiable information you submit there can be read, collected, or used by
other users of these forums, and could be used to send you unsolicited messages.
We are not responsible for the personally identifiable information you choose to
submit in these forums.

Security
The security of your personal information is important to us. When you enter
sensitive information such as credit card numbers on our registration or order
forms, we encrypt that information using secure socket layer technology (SSL).

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal


information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No
method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is
100% secure, however. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable
means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute
security.

Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job are granted
access to personally identifiable information. Furthermore, ALL employees are
kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Finally, the servers that
we store personally identifiable information on are kept in a secure
environment.

If you have any questions about security on our Web site, you can contact our
helpful customer support staff online. On the Paltalk buddy list window, click
Groups, then Paltalk Help Groups.

Business Transitions
In the event Paltalk goes through a business transition, such as a merger,
acquisition by another company, or sale of all or a portion of its assets, your
personally identifiable information will likely be among the assets transferred.
You will be notified via email of any such change in ownership or control of
your personal information.

Changes in this Privacy Statement


If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this
privacy statement, and other places we deem appropriate so that you are aware of
what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if
any, we disclose it.

We reserve the right to modify this privacy statement at any time, so please
review it frequently. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify
you here, by email, or by means of a notice on our home page.
