If Browzmi, or substantially all of its assets, were acquired, user information would be one of the assets that is transferred.

This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection.

Controlling your privacy

We are focused on enabling privacy features in our Services. Today, you have the ability to choose one of two settings: 1) Friends Only or 2) Public. In Friends Only mode, your current website location and the links you save, comment and rate are only visible to your Browzmi friends. In Public mode, you current website location and the links you save, comment and rate may be visible to all Browzmi users. We hope that we can establish a sharing community whereby everyone is comfortable to operate in Public mode.
