Privacy Policy

Hostingent is committed to respecting and protecting the privacy of all of our customers, and visitors. Establishing confidence that their personal information will not be disseminated has always been a high priority. It is our desire that every Internet user enjoys the multitude of possibilities that the Internet and Hostingent can provide without concern.
This Privacy Policy has been created to demonstrate our commitment to privacy and to provide you with (i) the types of information that Hostingent collects; and (ii) what Hostingent does with the information we collect.

Types of Information Collected

Hostingent collects personal information such as name, address, telephone number, and billing information in different ways from consumers who access various Hostingent services ("Services"). It is Hostingent's general practice not to sell, rent, or lease collected information to third parties. This information may, however, be shared in the rare instances provided below, where disclosure is required by law, such as in response to a subpoena or court order, or where the consumer has previously provided Hostingent with consent to do so.
Hostingent may also collect certain information about your computer hardware and software. This information may include: your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times and referring web site addresses. This information may be used by Hostingent in connection with the operation and maintenance of its service. As with personal information, this information is generally not disclosed to third parties but may, however, be shared in the rare instances provided below, where disclosure is required by law, such as in response to a subpoena or court order, or where the consumer has previously provided Hostingent with consent to do so.

Registration

Consumers signing up for or inquiring into one of Hostingent's many Services are asked to provide certain personal information including name, address, telephone number, and billing information (such as a credit card number). The personal information collected during the registration process is used to manage each consumer's account, such as for billing purposes. This information is not shared with third parties, unless specifically stated otherwise or in response to the special circumstances listed above.

Security Measures

Hostingent uses a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. For example, we store the personal information you provide on computer systems with limited access and on those which are located in controlled facilities. When we transmit highly confidential information (such as a credit card number) over the Internet, we protect it through the use of Secure Socket Layer (SSL) Software which encrypts the information that you input.

Filtered Internet Services

Customers subscribing to the optional Hostingent Spam Detection service agree to an automated scan and removal of all incoming email messages for the attributes commonly associated with unsolicited commercial bulk messages.  From time to time, Hostingent may examine suspected spam sent to customers in order to improve filtering efficiency. Hostingent makes every effort to ensure the accuracy of spam filtering, however, it cannot be guaranteed.

Contacting Us

When consumers send email inquiries to Hostingent or attempt to contact Hostingent via our Support page, the return email address is used to answer the email inquiry we receive. Hostingent does not use the return email address for any other purpose and does not share the return email address with any third party.
