5. Advertisers
Mogulus allows other companies, called third-party ad servers or ad networks, to serve advertisements within the Mogulus Service. These third-party ad servers or ad networks may use technology to send, directly to your browser, the advertisements that appear within the Mogulus Service and they automatically receive your IP Address and other log file information when this happens. Such third-party ad servers may also use other technologies (such as cookies, javascript, or web beacons) to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and to personalize their advertising content.
Mogulus does not provide your personally identifiable information to these third-party ad servers or ad networks without your consent. However, please note that if an advertiser asks Mogulus to show an advertisement to a certain audience or audience segment and you respond to that advertisement, the advertiser or ad-server may conclude that you fit the description of the audience that they were trying to reach.
You should consult the respective privacy policies of these third-party ad servers or ad networks. This Privacy Policy does not apply to, and we cannot control the activities of, such other advertisers or web sites. Mogulus reserves the right the add or remove third-party ad networks or ad servers in its discretion and Mogulus may not at all times list such updated ad network or ad server partners in this Privacy Policy.
6. Our Commitment to Data Security:
Mogulus uses commercially reasonable physical, managerial, and technical safeguards to preserve the integrity and security of your personal information. We cannot, however, ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to Mogulus, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission of information, Mogulus makes commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the security of our systems. However, please note that this is not a guarantee that such information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical, technical, or managerial safeguards.
If Mogulus learns of a security systems breach, then we may attempt to notify you electronically so that you can take appropriate protective steps. Mogulus may post a notice on the Mogulus Service if a security breach occurs. Depending on where you live, you may have a legal right to receive notice of a security breach in writing. To receive a free written notice of a security breach you should notify us at privacy@Mogulus.com.

Protecting the privacy of young children is especially important. For that reason, Mogulus does not knowingly collect or maintain personally identifiable information from persons under 13 years-of-age. If Mogulus learns that personally-identifiable information of persons less than 13-years-of-age has been collected on or through the Mogulus Service, then Mogulus will take the appropriate steps to delete this information.
