COLLECTION AND USE OF INFORMATION BY PROCATTLE
Generally, you can visit ProCattle.com without revealing any personal
information. Like many websites, ProCattle.com's web servers collect
the Internet Protocol addresses, but not the e-mail addresses, of
visitors. ProCattle may use this information to measure the number
of visits, average time spent on the site, pages viewed, and other
such statistics. ProCattle may then use this information to improve
ProCattle.com.
You may be asked for personal information, including your name,
e-mail address, mailing address, telephone number, company name,
fax number, and password (collectively, "Personal Information")
when you register for certain services offered by ProCattle, send
e-mail to ProCattle, respond to e-mails from ProCattle, post messages
or upload content using ProCattle.com. ProCattle also may receive
personally identifiable information about you from other users or
third parties who may communicate with ProCattle about you. ProCattle
automatically collects and stores statistics and other information
about you and your online activities both on an aggregated, non-personally
identifiable basis and in a manner that may allow us to associate
such information with other personally identifiable information
about you. ProCattle may use your information on an aggregated basis
to do such things as operate ProCattle.com, enhance and improve
ProCattle.com, and sell and deliver advertising. ProCattle also
uses this data, both aggregated and personally identifiable, to
enhance your onsite experience by displaying promotions, advertisements
and content that we believe will be of interest to you.
Your Personal Information may be used by ProCattle to provide you
with information regarding its products and services. For example,
ProCattle may use your e-mail address to send you special announcements
and notifications of new listings, services or promotions that may
be of interest to you. ProCattle may use your mailing address to
send you information related to our services. ProCattle may also
use your mailing address to send you special announcements and notifications
of listings, services or promotions that may be of interest to you.
In order to bid on cattle listings through ProCattle.com, you must
submit to a credit check and background check. In order to obtain
a credit report and background report, ProCattle may request additional
financial and personal information from you. This information will
be used in order to run a credit check and background check, and
may be shared with the parties who provide such investigative services
on behalf of ProCattle.
COOKIES
A cookie is a small amount of code that a website sends to your

specific to you. ProCattle uses cookies in order to provide information
that is targeted to the interests of our users and to better understand
how users use ProCattle.com, which in turn helps ProCattle focus
its resources on features that are most popular with users. [Additionally,
consistent with standard practices in the Internet industry, you

DISCLOSURE OF USER INFORMATION TO THIRD PARTIES
As a general practice, ProCattle does not sell to, or share your
Personal Information with third parties. However, on particular
pages where we ask for Personal Information, we may explicitly tell
you that the data we are collecting on that page will be provided
to third parties, in which case those disclosures shall override
anything to the contrary in this policy. Wherever possible, ProCattle
will give you the ability to "opt out" of receiving such communications
and information. Your telephone number will be used if there are
any customer service issues that might need to be addressed. ProCattle
will never share your financial information with any third parties
other than vendors or suppliers (as necessary to fulfill transactions
on ProCattle.com). Except as provided herein, your specific Personal
Information will not be shared with any third parties, unless ProCattle
believes in good faith that the law requires it, or if such disclosure
is necessary to protect the rights or property of ProCattle.
While your specific Personal Information will not be shared, from
time to time, collective and aggregated user information will be
disclosed in order to describe ProCattle's services and user demographics/psychographics
to prospective advertisers, partners, research companies and other
third parties so they can target their messages to a specific audience
and conduct requested research studies on our behalf. Your specific
user habits within ProCattle.com will not be disclosed to any third
parties. Although your privacy is very important to ProCattle, due
to the existing legal and technical environment, we cannot fully
ensure that your private communications and other personally identifiable
information will not be disclosed to third parties. For example,
ProCattle may be forced to disclose information to the government
or third parties under certain circumstances, or third parties may
unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications.
Additionally, we can (and you authorize us to) disclose any information
about you to private entities, law enforcement or other government
officials as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate
to investigate or resolve possible problems or inquiries. Links
ProCattle.com contains links and references to other websites and
organizations, including websites not under the control of ProCattle.
Please note that different rules may apply to the collection, use
or disclosure of your information by operators of such third party
websites. ProCattle encourages you to investigate and ask questions
before disclosing information to third parties. Although ProCattle
tries to link only to sites sharing its high standards of privacy,
ProCattle is not responsible for the privacy practices of linked
sites.
INFORMATION SECURITY
ProCattle uses reasonable precautions to keep the personal information
disclosed to it secure and to disclose such information only to
third parties it believes to be responsible. However, ProCattle's
affiliates and third party Internet sites and services which are
accessible through ProCattle.com, or parties whom we inform you
are collecting data in connection with sweepstakes, promotions and
other activities, have separate privacy and data collection practices,
independent of us. We have no responsibility or liability for any
actions of any third parties which receive the information.
