Downloadable Software. Some applications of the downloadable software and applets we offer, such as the tool to upload photos, transfer us data. We may not make any formal statement if we believe that the compiling and use of the information from our part has the clear objective of such application, for example, the act of receiving photos when using the tool to upload photos.

How we share the information
MTG is based on sharing information with other outdoor enthusiast, friends, and acquaintances, but at the same time you are offered the configuration of privacy tool to limit the access of other users to your information. We share your information with third parties when we believe that such action is allowed by you, or is reasonably necessary to offer our services, or when required by law. For example:
To help other fishermen and friends to find you. We include certain information that you have placed in your profile in the search results of MTG so as to help other fishermen and friends to find you. However, through our configuration of privacy, you control who can see your information and who can find you in a given search. We also help courier companies’ providers and e-mail providers to identify which of their contacts are MTG users, so that we can advertise MTG to those users.
To give search engines access to information publicly available. In general, we do not limit the access of search engines to our web site. We may allow them to have access to the general wall or the general section alike, and to the information of your profile which is visible for everyone.
To help improving or fostering our service. Sometimes we share aggregated data or anonymous information with third parties to improve or foster our service. However, we do it in such a way that no user can be identified, not link him/her with to any information or specific action.
To provide our services. We can provide information to service providers who enable us to make the service we offer easier. For instance, we can use third parties to host our web site, send updates about MTG by e-mail, and eliminate information related to our users list, process payments, or offer links or search results –which include advertised links- . These providers may have access to your personal information for a limited period of time and when this happens, we establish technical and contractual protection systems to limit the use of such information for the sole and only purpose they accomplish for us to offer the service.
To advertise our services. We can request advertisers, who have nothing to do with MTG, to show ads to advertise our services. We can ask them to do so through the use of a cookie. However, when doing so, we will not share any other information with the advertiser.
To offer you joint services. We can provide you services jointly with some other companies, such as the classified advertisement of MTG. Nonetheless, we will identify the partner and present him/her with the privacy policy of joint service providers before he/she uses such service.
