Title: Privacy?
Post by: modellocate on November 02, 2007, 14:05

Has anyone been able to find Fotolia's privacy policy?

It is linked from http://us.fotolia.com/Info/Security

http://www.fotolia.com/info/privacy_policy.php

But that is a broken link. I asked them about it, and they responded:

Answers: Fotolia : We are not sure we understand your request. Please describe in more detail how can we assist you.

I get a 404 error message when I try to open the link.

I've just opened it.  It says:

I hope the links are all ok.

Hmm, right. It opens in the UK site, but linked to "Terms and Conditions" and not "Privacy policy".

In the other sites (all but US and UK), the text under "respect for privacy" is longer, saying basically that FT won't disclose any personal data except under juditial demand.

Thanks. Just checking to see if I was going crazy or something, since they could not understand the problem I needed to figure out if it was me or them ;)
