Thank you for choosing to be part of our community at American Domain Registry, LLC (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). We are committed to safeguarding your personal information and respecting your privacy. If you have any questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy, or how we handle your information, please contact us at info@americandomainregistry.org.

This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what rights you have in relation to it. It applies to all data collected through our website, communications, sales, and related services (collectively, the “Services”).

1. Information We Collect

Personal information you provide: We collect personal data that you voluntarily provide when you interact with the Site — for example, when you register, make a payment, submit a contact form, or request directory listings. This may include:

• Name, company name, and contact details (email, phone, mailing address)
• Billing and payment information (processed securely through PCI-compliant vendors)
• Account credentials (username, password, or authentication data)

Automatically collected information: When you browse our Site, we automatically collect limited technical data such as:

• Device and browser type
• IP address and location (approximate)
• Referring URLs and browsing activity within our Site

This information helps us maintain Site performance, detect fraud, and improve usability. It does not directly identify you and is primarily used for analytics and security purposes.

2. How We Use Your Information

We process your information to:

• Provide, maintain, and improve our Services
• Process transactions and issue digital listings
• Communicate with you regarding your account or services
• Send important administrative or security updates
• Comply with legal obligations or respond to lawful requests

3. Sharing of Information

We do not sell your data. We share information only when necessary to:

• Comply with legal obligations (court orders, subpoenas, or law enforcement)
• Work with trusted vendors (e.g., payment processors, hosting providers, analytics tools)
• Protect our rights, property, or users in cases of fraud or abuse
• Facilitate a merger, sale, or reorganization where ownership changes

4. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to enhance your experience and understand Site usage. Cookies help remember user preferences and measure analytics. You may disable cookies in your browser settings, though some features may not function properly.

5. International Data Transfers

Our servers are located in the United States. If you access the Site from another country, you consent to the transfer and processing of your information in the United States, where privacy laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction.

6. Retention of Data

We retain personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, comply with legal obligations, or resolve disputes. Typically, this does not exceed five (5) years unless required by law. Once data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymized.

7. Data Protection & Security

We implement appropriate administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your data against unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. However, no online system is entirely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute protection.

8. Your Privacy Rights

You may request to access, correct, or delete your personal information at any time by emailing info@americandomainregistry.org. Depending on your jurisdiction, you may also have rights to restrict processing or request data portability.

Marketing emails include an “unsubscribe” link that you may use to opt out at any time. You will still receive essential service communications when necessary to fulfill contractual obligations.

9. Children’s Privacy

We do not knowingly collect information from individuals under the age of 18. If we learn that a minor’s data has been collected, it will be promptly deleted. Parents or guardians who believe a child’s data was collected should contact us immediately.

10. Third-Party Links

Our Site may include links to external websites, ads, or services we do not control. We are not responsible for their privacy practices. Please review the privacy policies of any linked third-party websites you visit.
