(“Goto URL Shortener”, “we” or “us”) on the collection, use and disclosure of information about you on https://goto.com.np (the “Site”) and the services, features, content or applications offered by Goto Paid URL Shortener (collectively with the Site, the “Services”). Goto Paid URL Shortener receives information about you from various sources, such as: (i) when you register for the Site and the Services, through your user account with Goto Paid URL Shortener (your “Account”); (ii) when you use the Services; and (iii) from third party websites and services. When you use the Services, you are consenting to the collection, transfer, storage, disclosure and other uses of your information as described in this Privacy Policy. The information you provide may be transferred, processed and/or accessed by us in the United States or another country where we (or our service providers) operate.
This Privacy Policy covers the treatment of the information gathered by Goto Paid URL Shortener when you are using or accessing the Services. This Privacy Policy also covers Goto Paid URL Shortener’s treatment of any information about you that Goto Paid URL Shortener’s business partners share with Goto Paid URL Shortener or that Goto Paid URL Shortener shares with its business partners.
This Privacy Policy does not apply to the practices of other businesses that Goto Paid URL Shortener does not own or control, including other companies’ websites, services and applications (“Third Party Services”) that you can access through the Services, such as Facebook or Twitter, or to individuals that Goto Paid URL Shortener does not manage or employ. While we attempt to partner with only those Third Party Services that share our respect for your privacy, we cannot take responsibility for the content or privacy policies of those Third Party Services. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any Third Party Services you access.
The information we collect is primarily used to provide the Services, to process and complete any transactions, to respond to inquiries, to personalize and improve the Services, to monitor and analyze usage and trends of the Services, to provide you with related, relevant information, and for any other purpose for which the information was collected. In connection with certain aspects of the Services, we may request, collect and/or display some information about you. We collect the following types of information from our users.
When you create an Account, we will collect personal information from you, such as your name and email address. If you create an Account using your login from another account, such as Facebook or Twitter, we will access and collect the personal information about you that the account provides (which is based on your privacy settings), so that you can create your Account with us. We use your contact information to send you information about our Services. You may unsubscribe from receiving certain types of these messages through your Account settings, although Goto Paid URL Shortener reserves the right to contact you when we believe it is necessary, such as for administrative and account management purposes.

Respecting our user privacy, we let our advertiser or publisher to delete their account permanently from our server. However, this is manual process. User must fill account deletion forms with proper reasons. If you want to delete your account please submit your account deletions form here.
One feature of the Services is the ability to create shortened uniform resource locators (URLs) of websites (“Goto Paid URL Shortener Links”). Goto Paid URL Shortener collects and stores both the original URL and the shortened URL and, if you are logged in to your Account, we will associate that information with your Account. Goto Paid URL Shortener also collects and stores the time and date on which you shortened the original URL and when you share the Goto Paid URL Shortener Link, information on the channels through which the Goto Paid URL Shortener Link was shared.
Goto Paid URL Shortener collects information about accesses (such as clicks) of every Goto Paid URL Shortener Link created through the Services. This information includes, but is not limited to: (i) the IP address and physical location of the devices accessing the Goto Paid URL Shortener Link; (ii) the referring websites or services; (iii) the time and date of each access; and (iv) information about sharing of the Goto Paid URL Shortener Link on Third Party Services such as Twitter and Facebook and RQ codes. These metrics and analytics are used by Goto Paid URL Shortener and its partners to improve their websites and services by, for example, providing value-added features.
Some features of the Services allow you to provide content to the Services, such as written descriptions of URLs, comments, images and video. For example, using the Bundles feature, Goto Paid URL Shortener users can curate and “bundle together” a set of links, and can add content to those Bundles, such as comments and videos. All content submitted by you to the Services may be retained by Goto Paid URL Shortener, even after you terminate your account, and may continue to be shared by third parties, as described in this Privacy Policy.
Some features of the Services allow you to share your content and Goto Paid URL Shortener Links through your accounts with other companies such as Facebook and Twitter. If you choose to connect Goto Paid URL Shortener to such Third Party Services, we may collect information related to your use of those Third Party Services, such as authentication tokens that allow us to connect to your Third Party Service accounts or the contact information of your friends (if you choose to connect your friends, followers, or contacts from your account) so that you can contact these people when you use the Services. We may also collect information about how you are using the Services to interact with those connected Third Party Services. Note that Third Party Services may have the ability to restrict the information that is provided to us based on your privacy settings of that account.
Much of your activity on and through the Services is public by default. This includes, but is not limited to:
Registered users may have some of this information associated with their Accounts. Unregistered users will not have this association, but information concerning their use of the Services (such as what Goto Paid URL Shortener Links they click on, when they clicked, from where they clicked, etc.) is tracked anonymously through the use of cookies and stored by Goto Paid URL Shortener. For registered users, some of this information is publicly accessible through a unique URL, which you can make non-public through your Account settings when you are logged in. Removing access to the unique URL does not, however, make this information non-public, and it may still be accessible through other means, such as Goto Paid URL Shortener’s API services.
Goto Paid URL Shortener Links and the general use of the Services may be shared in anonymized and/or aggregated form (in other words, non-personally identifiable) with our customers and business partners, like with the owners of the URLs that are shared through the Services. This information enables them to do things like better understand how people use their products and services and other products and services, to learn about the interests their users have and how our Services interoperate with their services, to do product development, marketing optimization and research, and to improve the relevancy of any online advertisements or marketing that is displayed through their services (or to tailor it to your interests).
Please also remember that if you choose to provide information about you using certain features of the Services, then that information is governed by the privacy settings of those particular features and may be publicly available to others.
While we collect and store IP address information, that information is not shared publicly. We do at times, however, share IP address information with our partners, service providers and other companies with whom we conduct business. In most cases, when we share your IP address with other third parties, we will use a cryptographic hash of the IP address, which cannot feasibly be reversed into the actual IP addresses themselves or linked to you individually.
When creating a Goto Paid URL Shortener Link, you can share that Goto Paid URL Shortener Link through Third Party Services. Any information that you elect to distribute through Third Party Services is provided to them and may then become accessible to users of those services. You can also access other Third Party Services through the Services, for example by clicking on links in the Statistics page for a Goto Paid URL Shortener Link. We recommend that you review the terms of services and privacy policies of such Third Party Services that you access through the Services, since Goto Paid URL Shortener does not control and is not responsible for the privacy practices of these Third Party Services.
User profile information including your username, Twitter handle and Facebook account name (to the extent you have linked your Account with those services), and other information you enter may be displayed to other users to facilitate user interaction within the Services. Users’ email addresses will not be directly revealed to other users by Goto Paid URL Shortener.
We may employ and contract with people and other entities to perform certain tasks on our behalf and under our direction (our “Service Providers”). We may need to share information about you with our Service Providers in order to provide products or services to you. Unless we tell you differently, our Service Providers do not have any right to use the information we share with them beyond what is necessary to assist us.
We may transfer and/or provide information about our users in connection with an acquisition, sale of company assets, or other situation where user information would be transferred as one of our business assets. In such a case, the acquirer of Goto Paid URL Shortener may continue to use your information as set forth in this policy.
Goto Paid URL Shortener also reserves the right to access, read, preserve, and disclose any information as it reasonably believes is necessary to (i) satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or governmental request, (ii) enforce these Terms of Service, including investigation of potential violations hereof, (iii) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues, (iv) respond to user info requests, or (v) protect the rights, property or safety of Goto Paid URL Shortener, its users and the public. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and spam/malware prevention.
We will share information about you when you instruct us to do so, such as when you share Goto Paid URL Shortener Links or content with others through the Services or if we notify you that the information you provide will be shared in a particular manner and you provide such information (like sharing/posting it with a Third Party Service).
