5. Advertisers

connectme.cc 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 connectme.cc 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. connectme.cc reserves the right the add or remove third-party ad networks or ad servers in its discretion and connectme.cc may not at all times list such updated ad network or ad server partners in this Privacy Policy.
