You may not otherwise reproduce, modify, distribute, transmit, post, or disclose the Web site Content without mapalist’s prior written consent.

Privacy – Collection and distribution of personal info
We will not collect any personal information from you that you do not volunteer, and we are the sole owner of all information collected on this site. We do not sell, share, or rent this information to others in any way that we have not mentioned in this statement.

Cookies
Like many other Web sites, mapalist uses cookies to identify users so they don't have to re-enter a user ID and password each time they visit the site. Cookies also help improve your experience and display more prominently goods and services that might interest you. If you do not have cookies enabled, you must enter your password each time you access mapalist or any of its member features.

Third Parties
mapalist may provide third parties with aggregate statistics about our customers, traffic patterns, and related site information. This data reflects site usage patterns gathered during thousands of customer visits to our Web site each month but does not contain behavioral or identifying information about any individual user, unless that user has expressly provided consent. mapalist may use third party companies to provide delivery of e-mail newsletters and other. Please be aware that mapalist may buy and sell business assets and/or divisions; customer information is generally part of such a sale.

Map Data – public and private maps and associated privacy
By nature, the creation of a map using mapalist requires you as a user to disclose data, such as an address list, for mapping purposes. All data points for maps are stored in a secure database. The points for a map are only retrieved from the database to show that map when requested by the authenticated user who created the map, unless you as the user have explicitly defined the map as “public”.

If you as the user have explicitly defined a map as “public”, any other user or entity that has the link to your map can view the map itself, view the HTML source code behind the map, and therefore gain visibility to the associated data points that are plotted. mapalist and its affiliates are committed to user privacy and will not publish or distribute the URL(s) associated with maps deemed by users as “public” without your express written consent. mapalist and its affiliates are in no way responsible for your inadvertent or unplanned distribution of “public” map URLs to parties outside your desired usage group.

Obtaining Consent – by using the site, we get permission to track usage; by registering we get permission to do a bit more in terms of tailoring the user experience and collect more specific aggregate data.

Additionally, you give mapalist administrators, permission to view and use all data provided, both “public” and “private” for Web site testing and maintenance related efforts.
