Website Access Information and Use of Cookies
Like most website operators, Shop Office Space collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request when visitors use the Website. Shop Office Space’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Shop Office Space’s visitors use the Services. From time to time, Shop Office Space may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its Services. Shop Office Space also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses and may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to the Services. For instance, Shop Office Space may monitor the Website to help identify spam. In addition to log data, we may also collect information about the device you’re using to access the Services, including the type of device, the operating system, device settings, device identifiers and crash data. Whether we collect some or all of this information often depends on what type of device you’re using and its settings. To learn more about the information your device makes available to us, please review the policies of your device manufacturer or software provider. Like many websites, the Website may use “cookies” to collect information. A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. Shop Office Space may use cookies to help identify and track visitors, their usage of the Website, and their Website access preferences. Website visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using the Website, with the drawback that certain features of Website may not function properly without the aid of cookies.
#####WiFi Usage
When you use the WiFi or other network features provided in a Shop Office Space, we may collect information about your usage of the WiFi, such as when and for how long you use the network and the frequency and size of data transfers.
You understand that WiFi, which utilizes wireless technologies, is not inherently secure and that wireless communications may not remain private or free of interception or access by others. We will not be liable to you or any other party for any lack of security that may result from your use of the Shop WiFi, and you agree that you are solely responsible for implementing and maintaining appropriate technological and other safeguards to ensure the safety and security of your device and anything stored on, or transmitted by, your device.

Accordingly, your information may be used for the following purposes: (i) to provide and improve our services, features and content; (ii) to administer your use of our services and accounts; (iii) to enable users to enjoy and easily navigate the Services; (iv) to better understand your needs and interests; (v) to fulfill requests or to respond to questions or comments you may make; (vi) to personalize your experience; (vii) to provide you with announcements, notifications and advertisements related to your interests and use of the Services and other communications such as electronic newsletters, promotional e-mails or similar messaging; (viii) to provide service announcements; (ix) to protect against users seeking to hack into the Services; (x) to assess the level of general interest in the Services; and (xi) to prepare the Shop Office Space directory.

The Directory, including your Contact Information, will be exclusively available to other members and member companies on the Portal. All members and member companies agree to use Contact Information only for legitimate business purposes and to refrain from using Contact Information to spam, market, harass or otherwise contact other members against their wishes. All members and member companies expressly agree not to compile, disclose or sell Contact Information for inclusion on any email database.

Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country and by using the Services, you consent to the transfer of such information to them.
Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations or as described above, we disclose personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when we believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Shop Office Space, third parties or the public at large. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users.
In addition, in some cases we may choose to buy or sell assets. In these types of transactions, user information is typically one of the business assets that is transferred. Moreover, if Shop Office Space or substantially all of its assets were acquired, or in the unlikely event that Shop Office Space goes out of business or enters bankruptcy, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred or acquired by a third party. You acknowledge that such transfers may occur, and that any acquirer of Shop Office Space may continue to use your personal and non-personal information only as set forth in this policy. Otherwise, we will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone.

These third-party services may place their own cookies or other files on your computer or device, collect data, or solicit information from you. How do we make changes to this policy? Although most changes are likely to be minor, Shop Office Space may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and in our sole discretion. We will post the updated policy on the Website and, if required by law, further notify you of the changes.
