including, but not limited, to the Service, to communicate with you, and to
manage your registered user account, if you have one.
Information Collected Upon Registration If you desire to have access to
certain restricted sections of the Site, you will be required to become a
registered user, and to submit certain personally identifiable information to
Bumpire. This happens in a number of instances, such as when you sign up for the
Service, or if you desire to receive marketing materials and information.
Personally identifiable information that we may collect in such instances may
include your IP address, full user name, password, email address, city, time
zone, telephone number, and other information that you decide to provide us
with, or that you decide to include in your public profile.

to upload one, are displayed to people in the Bumpire network to enable you to
connect with people on Bumpire, as specified in your privacy settings. Once a
member, you may provide additional information in the profile section, including
but not limited to your bio, your location, as well as your personal web site,
if you have one. Providing additional information beyond what is required at
registration is entirely optional, but enables you to better identify yourself
and find new friends and opportunities in the Bumpire system. If you activate
the mobile phone options per the Terms of Service at www.Bumpire.com/tos, we

by email through the Site, we may keep a record of your contact information and
correspondence, and may use your email address, and any information that you
provide to us in your message, to respond to you.
