Our Privacy Policy was developed as an extension of our commitment to combine quality products and services with integrity in dealing with our users. The Policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we collect, use and safeguard the personal information you provide to us and to assist you in making informed decisions when using our site and our products and services.

What Information Do We Collect?

When you visit our site you may provide us with two types of information: personal information you actively choose to disclose ("Active Information") and use information collected, in a way not visible to you, on an aggregate anonymous basis as you and others browse our site ("Passive Information").

Full name, home address, email, phone

If you do not provide one or more of these items, we may utilize any resources necessary to find the information including public tax records and any other public and non-public data sources available to us.

If you choose to submit information on our site or maintain email, snailmail or telephone contact with us, we may retain such information also and its transmission via email is not secured.

Passive Information Collected

What is a Cookie?

Cookies are a feature of web browser (Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, etc.) software that allows web servers to recognize the computer used to access a site. They are small pieces of data that are stored by a user's web browser on one site to simplify subsequent interactions with that site by the same user or to use the information to streamline the user's transaction on related web pages. This makes it easier for a user to move from site to site and to complete transactions over the Internet. Cookies should make your online experience easier and more personalized.

Our site utilizes cookies to collect information about how our site is used. Passive Information gathered may include the date and time of visits, the site pages viewed, time spent at our site, the sites visited just before and just after our site. If you do not wish to transmit "cookie" information about yourself, you may turn off the cookie function in your web browser; please consult the "Help" section of your browser to correctly do so.

Our site's servers also automatically identify your computer by its Internet Protocol address, which is a unique string of numbers that is assigned to your computer by your Internet Service Provider. Your IP address may be used to address problems with our server or administer our site or to gather broad demographic information about our users.

How Do We Use the Information Collected?

Broadly speaking, persons we employ directly, or as contractors or agents at our direction, use Active Information for purposes of administering our business activities, providing customer services such as support, and making available other products or services we think may be of interest to our users. We may use the Active Information or Passive Information you provide to us to contact you about changes to our site, new services, features or products we offer, or other information we think you shall find valuable. We may also share email threads we receive about your experience with Home Value Leads publicly for marketing purposes.

We use Passive Information to gather information about our users and to enhance and design our site to make it easier, faster and friendlier to use. Additionally, cookies help us know information about how many people visit our site, when they visit and how they use our service. Passive Information may result in your viewing of particular advertising based on your user habits for your viewing on our site and a shopping experience customized to you in content, services and goods.

Your Information In Relation to Others We Link To

You may be able to access other websites through our site. When you do so you are doing so subject to their policies regarding privacy and data collection and you should read those sites' privacy policies to make sure you agree to them before using such sites. When you choose to shop at such sites, you should read their privacy policies to make sure you agree to them before making purchases.

Sharing Information with Advertisers or Other Third Parties

We may disclose anonymous information about user habits, characteristics and user patterns, based on aggregate user statistics to advertisers on our site. We may also share or sell information with or to other businesses in the normal process of conducting our business. Should we buy or sell assets of our company, another company may need to review our company's assets, including your information, to make business decisions as to whether to acquire such assets.

Sharing Information with the Government or As Otherwise Required by Law

We may be required by subpoena, law or government agency to disclose both Active and Passive Information you have provided to us.

How Do We Secure Active Information and Passive Information?

We secure your personal information submitted by you by using reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, or accidental loss or destruction of Active Information and Passive Information. Your postings on this site and other communications you may have with us via email or snailmail may not be secure unless we advise you that security measures are in place prior to your sending information. Therefore, if you choose to communicate with us through these means, you are assuming the risk of doing so and we request that you do not send or post sensitive information through these means.

By submitting any information on this website, you give the owner the permission to contact you by any means possible and using any contact information that you provide or that we are able to locate. This includes, but is not limited to, email, regular mail, phone, or via text message (SMS), including a phone number which has been listed on the Do Not Call list. YOUR USE OF OUR SITE MEANS THAT YOU ARE ACCEPT THE PRACTICES SET FORTH IN THIS POLICY. WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO MAKE CHANGES TO THE POLICY BY POSTING THE NEW VERSION WITH A NEW EFFECTIVE DATE.

GDM assumes no liability or responsibility for your failure to receive an email notification if such failure results from an inaccurate email address.

1. FEES AND PAYMENT

5.1. Prompt Payment (Paid Plans)

When you purchase Services from us, you agree to promptly pay any and all prices and fees due for those Services in the time and manner which we will specify at or near the time of purchase, and you agree to continue paying promptly until you cancel the Services. All prices and fees are non-refundable unless otherwise expressly noted, even if your Services are suspended, terminated, or transferred prior to the end of the Services term.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, you will pay all sums due by means of a valid, active credit card. GDM expressly reserves the right to retain your old credit card information and bill an old credit card if a more recent card is determined to be invalid, inoperative, or otherwise fails to make payment. You agree that GDM may share your payment information, including credit card numbers, home address, and related information, with third-party payment processing firms in order to process your purchase of Services from us.

5.2. Payment Due Date

Monthly payment plans: Unless otherwise specified by us in our communications with you, during the Services term, we will bill you and charge your credit card on the monthly anniversary of the day you signed in, unless that day falls on the 31st day of a given month, in which case you will be billed on the 30th of each month.

Annual payment plans: Unless otherwise specified by us in our communications with you, during the Services term, we will bill you and charge your credit card on the yearly anniversary of the day you signed in, unless that day falls on the 31st day of the 12th month, in which case you will be billed on the 30th of the 12th month.

Your payment date may vary, however, so please monitor our communications with you, which will take precedence over this section.

5.3. Our Remedies for Insufficient Payment

If GDM is unable to charge your credit card for the full amount owed for the Services, your account may be canceled, and you will remain responsible for making all payments due.

If we have canceled your account in the past because of your failure to pay, and you want to sign up for a new account, we reserve the right to assess a $55.00 surcharge in addition to the normal amounts due on your first payment due date. However, if you sign up again after your account was cancelled, you may not be able to retrieve information from your previous account.

If GDM receives notification of a chargeback, reversal, payment dispute, or is charged a penalty for any fee it previously charged to your credit card, you agree that GDM may pursue all available lawful remedies in order to obtain payment, including but not limited to, immediate cancellation, without notice to you, of any domain names or Services registered or provided by us to you. GDM also reserves the right to charge you reasonable "administrative fees" or "processing fees" for (i) tasks GDM may perform outside the normal scope of its Services, (ii) additional time and/or costs GDM may incur in providing its Services, and/or (iii) your noncompliance with this Agreement (as determined by GDM in its reasonably exercised discretion). Typical administrative or processing fee scenarios include, but are not limited to (i) customer service issues that require additional personal time or attention; (ii) disputes that require accounting or legal services, whether performed by GDM staff or by outside firms retained by GDM; (iii) recouping any and all costs and fees, including the cost of Services, incurred by GDM as the results of chargebacks or other payment disputes brought by you, your bank, or your credit card processor. These administrative fees or processing fees may be billed to any credit card you have on file with GDM.

5.4. Cancellation Policy

Unless you give proper notice of cancellation, you will be obligated to pay, even if you have not finished setting up your account and even if you have not received some of the Services for which you signed up, such as a domain name.

You acknowledge that we may cancel your account immediately after receiving the cancellation notice from you, after which all your account information will be deactivated and unavailable to you. As soon as your account is cancelled, whether by us or by you, the site has been deactivated, there is no way to retrieve information that was in the account. After your account is cancelled, you will be unable to retrieve any data stored on our systems, including, but not limited to, data associated with leads, such as phone numbers, names, addresses, or messages. We recommend that you export leads before cancelling your account, because GDM is not liable for any information that is lost due to the cancellation of your account.

You may cancel your account by clicking on the "cancel" link in the email sent to you after you signed up. Clicking on that link will immediately cancel your account. Alternatively, you may send a cancellation request to customercare@quotool.com from the email address you used to register your account.

5.5. Prices Subject to Change

GDM reserves the right to change prices for Services and/or payment due dates with appropriate notice to you. By continuing to use the Services after receiving notice of a change, you agree to make payments at those new prices at the time and in the manner specified in our communications with you. If you object to any changes, you must immediately notify us and cancel your account, or else you will be held responsible for paying the new prices.

If you have purchased or obtained Services for a term of months or years, a change in price shall take effect when the current term expires.

5.6. Promotional Terms

From time to time, GDM may offer a promotional rate for customers who agree to purchase Services. By accepting a promotional rate, you understand that your right to receive the promotional rate shall retroactively terminate if you cancel the Services before the end of the extended term.

5.7. Introductory Trials

From time to time, we might offer the chance to participate in an introductory trial, in which we allow you to use certain Services for a promotional or discounted rate for a limited period of time. You may sign up for only one such introductory trial. If you have already participated in an introductory trial in any form whatsoever, whether or not you completed setup of your account or completed the term of the trial, you agree to forego any additional introductory trial. If you sign up to receive Services after having participated in any way in an introductory trial, you understand that you must pay for Services you receive. The introductory trial is subject to cancellation at any time.

5.8 Domain Names

Domain names are an important aspect of the Services. We strongly recommend that you register a domain name quickly and provide it to us in the manner specified in our communications with you. If you do not register a domain name, we have the right, but not the obligation, to register a domain name for you to use as part of providing Services to you. The domain name we register will not necessarily be appropriate for your intended geographic area, and any domain name registered by GDM will be owned by GDM. You will have no ownership or other rights to the domain name beyond the temporary right to use it in accordance with our provision of the Services. When your Services term ends, or your account is canceled, any domain name registered by GDM will remain the property of GDM.

5.9 No Refunds

GDM does not offer refunds, whether prorated or not, for unused Services or unexpired time left remaining on an extended term.

If you are a California resident, you acknowledge that this Agreement is a general release of all your claims, known and unknown, which you might have against GDM, and you agree to a continuing waiver of all your rights under California Civil Code §1542, which states:

You agree to protect, defend, indemnify and hold harmless GDM and its officers, directors, employees, and agents, from and against any and all claims, demands, costs, expenses, losses, liabilities and damages of every kind and nature (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys fees) imposed upon or incurred by GDM directly or indirectly arising from (1) your use of and access to this Site or the Services found at this Site; (2) your violation of any provision of this Agreement or the policies or agreements which are incorporated herein; and/or (3) your violation of any third-party right, including without limitation any intellectual property rights or other proprietary right.
