You willingly provide us certain personal information, which we collect in order to allow you to benefit from the mallsandmore.com website. If you have any hesitation about providing such information to us and/or having such information displayed on the mallsandmore.com website or otherwise used in any manner permitted in this Data Protection Policy and the Member Agreement, you should not become a member of the mallsandmore.com.

Profile Information
Once you become a Member, you may provide additional information in the Profile section describing your skills, professional experiences, and networking objectives. Providing additional information beyond what is required at registration to become a Member is entirely optional, but enables you to better identify yourself and find new opportunities with mallsandmore.com to build and use your professional network. Any information you provide at registration or in the Profile section that is not personally identifiable may be used in the same manner and extent to which other information that is not personally identifiable is permitted to be used hereunder, including for the purpose of serving advertisements through the service. If you opt-out you may lose the potential benefit of being a Member, including receiving ads that are more targeted to your interests.
Contacts Information
You may invite others to contact you directly through mallsandmore.com. For this you may use the mallsandmore.com options to invite them if they are Members, or enter their names and email addresses. This information will be used by mallsandmore.com to send your invitation including a message that you write. The names and email addresses of people that you invite will be used only to send your invitation and reminders. Until another Member accepts your invitation their email and certain other details will not be revealed to you. This is also the case when other Members invite you. Once you use your email address to reply to them directly you are opting to reveal this information. Should you feel uncertain about this we recommend you contact other members through the contact options provided through our site.
You may also choose to manually enter or upload data about your contacts. You may not invite anyone to connect with you whom you do not know. All information entered there will only be viewable by you and will not be searchable by others in the mallsandmore.com network without your permission. All information that you enter or upload about your contacts will be covered by the same terms of this Data Protection Policy as cover your own information.
Customer Service
mallsandmore.com may collect information through the mallsandmore.com website or related sites that are identified as part of our network in order to, among other things, accurately categorize and respond to a customer’s inquiry and deliver appropriate service levels.
Cookies
Like most websites, mallsandmore.com uses cookies and web log files to track site usage. A cookie is a tiny data file which resides on your computer which allows mallsandmore.com to recognize you as a Member when you return to the mallsandmore.com website using the same computer and web browser. If your browser settings do not allow cookies, you will not be able to use the mallsandmore.com website. Like the information you enter at registration or in your Profile, cookie and log file data is used to customize your experience on our website.
We use cookies predominantly to secure and verify your account and to monitor and develop our services for the benefit of our members. Therefore cookies are an essential tool in our work. If you have any doubt about how we use cookies let us know your concerns and if we can not advise you to your satisfaction we recommend to you not to join our services.
One type of cookie, known as a “persistent” cookie, is set once you’ve logged in to your mallsandmore.com account. Even our persistent cookies have limited periods of activity in order to protect you as much as possible.
The next time you visit the mallsandmore.com website before the expiry of the persistent cookie we should recognise you as an existing Member so you may not need to log in before using the service. Depending on the browser you use and the level of privacy you defined the browser may allow you to login to our service without re-entering your credentials.
In order to access or change any of your private information or to send a message to another Member, however, you must log in securely again with your password even if your computer contains your persistent cookie.
Additionally, if you log out of the mallsandmore.com website you may need to re-enter your password the next time you visit in order to log in to your account. Another type of cookie, called a “session” cookie, is used to identify a particular visit to the mallsandmore.com website. Session cookies expire after a short time or when you close your web browser.
We use cookies to improve the quality of our service by storing Member preferences and tracking Member trends. In the course of serving advertisements or optimising services to our Members, we may allow authorised third parties to place or recognise a unique cookie on your browser. Any information provided to third parties through such cookies will not be personally identifiable but may provide general segment information, e.g. your industry or geographic location, your occupation, or information about your professional or educational background, for greater customization of your member experience. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies, but you can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. Unfortunately, if your browser settings do not allow cookies or you opt to refuse all cookies, you may not be able to use the mallsandmore.com website or services. mallsandmore.com does not store personally identifiable information in the cookies.
Web Beacons
We allow other companies, called ad networks, to serve advertisements to Members. Ad networks include third party ad servers, ad agencies, ad technology vendors and research firms. mallsandmore.com may “target” some ads to Members that fit a certain general profile – for example, “centre managers in Denmark.” mallsandmore.com does not use personally identifiable information to target ads.
To deliver these ads properly, mallsandmore.com may include a file, called a web beacon, from these ad networks within pages served by mallsandmore.com so the networks may provide anonymous, aggregated auditing, research and reporting for advertisers as well as to target ads to you while you visit other websites.
Because your web browser must request these advertisements and web beacons from the ad network’s servers, these companies can view, edit or set their own cookies, just as if you had requested a web page from their site.
These general targets may also be used by ad networks to display targeted ads on other websites as a substitute for random, irrelevant ads. mallsandmore.com does not provide personally identifiable information to any advertiser or any other third party.
You may opt-out of use of web beacons in mallsandmore.com pages that you view and of placement of a cookie by ad networks in your browser. If you opt-out you may lose the potential benefit of receiving ads that are more targeted to your interests which, in turn, may limit your ability to fully realize the benefits of the mallsandmore.com services to build and use your professional network.
Log files, IP addresses and information about your computer
Due to the communications standards on the Internet, when you visit the mallsandmore.com web site we automatically receive the URL of the site from which you came and the site to which you are going when you leave mallsandmore.com. We also receive the Internet protocol (IP) address of your computer (or the proxy server you use to access the World Wide Web), your computer operating system and type of web browser you are using, email patterns, as well as the name of your ISP. This information is used to analyze overall trends to help us improve the mallsandmore.com service. The linkage between your IP address and your personally identifiable information is not shared with third-parties without your permission or except when required by law.
Consent to mallsandmore.com Processing Information About You
Certain information you provide to mallsandmore.com may reveal, or allow others to identify, your nationality, ethnic origin, religion or other aspects of your private life, and more generally about you. Please be aware that in providing information to mallsandmore.com for the purposes of opening your member account, you are expressly and voluntarily accepting the terms and conditions of this Data Protection Policy and mallsandmore.com ’s Member Agreement. The supplying of all such information by you to mallsandmore.com , including all information deemed “sensitive” by applicable law, is entirely voluntary on your part. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, in accordance with the terms of this Data Protection Policy and the Member Agreement, but please note that your withdrawal of consent will not be retroactive.
Please note that we do not require or offer specific fields to enter data about your nationality, ethnic origin or religion. Should these be revealed through our site you may have entered them in one of the fields for general text data input.
Rights to Access, Correct and Eliminate Information About You
You have a right to access, modify, correct and eliminate the data about you which has been collected pursuant to your decision to become a Member. If you update any of your information, we may keep a copy of the information which you originally provided to us in our archives for uses documented in this document above and below.

Customized Content
Information provided to mallsandmore.com (or to third parties with whom it offers combined services) is also used to customize your experience on our website. For example, when you login to your account we will display the screen names of new Members who have recently joined your network.
Sharing Information with Third Parties
mallsandmore.com takes the privacy of Members very seriously. We do not sell, rent, or otherwise provide your personally identifiable information to third parties for marketing purposes. We will only share your personally identifiable information with third parties to carry out your instructions or to provide specific services or information. For instance, we use a credit card processing company to bill Members for subscription fees. These third parties do not retain, share, or store any personally identifiable information except to provide these services and they are bound by confidentiality agreements which limit their use of such information.
mallsandmore.com offers a “public profile” feature which allows Members to publish portions of their mallsandmore.com profile, including their “name”, their “email address” and other details to the public Internet. Members may opt-out of this feature by editing their account and settings, however mallsandmore.com does not warrant how often third-party search engines will update their cache. Basically if you do not want to reveal such information do not enter it here and if the information is required you should use the hide / keep private option.
We may provide aggregated anonymous data about the usage of our services to third parties for such purposes as we deem, in our sole discretion, to be appropriate, including to prospective advertisers on mallsandmore.com. We may segment our Members by role (i.e. First Members, Editors, Early Members, etc), by professional and occupational roles (i.e. MD, CEO, vice-president, architect, manager, engineer, etc.) industry, geographic location, or company.
Teaming with Other Organizations to Offer Combined and Other Services
mallsandmore.com may offer our services in connection with other websites (including updates about the mallsandmore.com service) or may team with other online services to give you the combined results of both services or additional services and benefits. Platform Modules can be designed by Platform Developers or by Platform Sub-Developers.
These partners may get access to our data in order to develop, implement, share or run such Platform Modules and partner services based on contractual agreements that include this Data Protection Policy.
For Platform Modules designed by Platform Developers you may at times be asked to confirm acceptance of the Platform Developers’ respective privacy policies and member agreements, which have not necessarily been reviewed or approved by mallsandmore.com. In these cases, it will be your choice whether or not to make use of the services and whether to proceed under the Platform Developers’ terms.
Platform Developers are required to agree to restrictions on access, storage and usage of your information. However, while we typically enter into contractual agreements and take technical steps to restrict possible misuse of such information by such Platform Developers, we may not screen or approve Platform Developers, and we cannot and do not guarantee that all Platform Developers will abide by such restrictions and agreements. Certain actions you take through the Platform Modules will be displayed to your connections. You understand that your use of any Platform Modules is on an “as is” basis without any warranty as to the Platform Developers’ actions.
If you, your connections, members of your network, or other Members of mallsandmore.com use any Platform Module, or if you interact with a Platform Module being used by any of them, such Platform Module may access and share certain information about you with others. Because a Platform Module can make calls on behalf of the Member interacting with it to access non-public information, the level of detail accessible by the Platform Module is constrained by the same settings that govern visibility of your data to that Member on mallsandmore.com.
For example, assuming you have not already given a Platform Module permission to access your information, your non-public profile information should not be visible to someone using a Platform Module if it is not otherwise accessible to that person on mallsandmore.com.
To uninstall a Platform Module go to your account and disable it there.
Note, however, that even if you uninstall a Platform Module, your connections, other members of your network, or other Members of mallsandmore.com may still be using the Platform Module, and so it may still have access to certain information about you, just as those Members do. To report any suspected misuse of information contact: Webmaster. mallsandmore.com is not responsible for your use of or inability to use any Platform Modules, including the content, accuracy, or reliability of such applications and the privacy practices or other policies of Platform Developers.
