Privacy Policy
Welcome to the Bloggino Website (the "Website"). Bloggino is a community platform where users
can create their personal mini-blog ("a Bloggino") for their friends or the public by posting messages using
their mobile phone, email, IM or from their computer (the "Service"). Users can then invite
friends to join their network.
If you are under 16 you should check with your parents or guardians that they are happy for
you to be a member of Habbo Hotel. Please get them to explain any areas of this statement you
may not fully understand.
If you have any concerns regarding your personal information, website content, or any queries
with regards to Bloggino practices, please email us.

4. Mini-blogs
We make Mini-blogs available to you. Please remember that any information you choose to
disclose in these areas may become public information. We would encourage you to exercise
caution when deciding to disclose information, and be careful what you reveal to people
you don't yet know. Please refer to our Terms and Conditions.
If you do not wish to receive information about products and services supplied by 2or3things or
third parties, you may opt out by emailing us.
5. Security
All information you provide us with, and all information contained in your account, is
encrypted. This coding lets your browser automatically encrypt or scramble data before you
send it to us. Transactions will not be permitted if your browser does not accept the
encryption. Only authorised personnel of 2or3things can decode this information and such
personnel will only do so in accordance with our privacy policy.
We employ this facility to ensure that all information we receive from you is in a secure
environment at all times.
6. Children
Bloggino is not intended for use by children, especially those under the age of 13.
No one under the age of 13 is allowed to provide any personal information or to use our public
discussion areas without parental consent.
If your children disclose information about themselves in our public discussion areas,
they may get unsolicited messages from other parties. Accordingly, it is up to you to ensure
they abide by our Terms and Conditions.
If you're worried about your children's activities or their privacy on our sites, we encourage
you to email us.
7. Cookies
A cookie is a small piece of information sent by web server to a web browser, which enables
the server to collect information from the browser.
We use cookies to identify you when you visit us and to keep track of where you go so we can

We will not sell, share, or rent your information to others except as set out in this Privacy
Policy.
(a) We will only disclose personal information to other companies within our group of
companies, business partners, purchasers of our business and suppliers we engage to process
data on our behalf. We may also disclose this information to a Licensed Credit Reference Agency.
(b) The business partners, strategic partners, purchasers of our business and suppliers may
gather information for their own purposes and for that reason we cannot exercise control
over the uses to which they apply your personal information. It is, however, our belief
that when we supply your details to them, they will keep your details secure and not pass
them on to third parties and only use your details to market their own products to you.
(c) In the event of the sale of the Company or its assets your personal details may be
disclosed to the purchaser of the Company or the purchaser of its assets.
10. Links to third parties
