“In 2009, identity theft increased 12% with an average cost of $4,831 per victim.”
— Javelin Strategy & Research, Feb. 2010
When you go online unprotected‚ you leave a trail of activity that cybercriminals can use to track back to your computer’s specific IP address. Once they have identified you, they can remain undetected as they secretly watch all of your online activities—reading your emails and IM conversations, watching your shopping habits, and collecting personal information to build profiles that allow them to commit identity theft, credit card fraud, and other crimes.
Each day, Anonymizer's solutions protect the identities and privacy of worldwide users as they go online. With a pristine 15-year history of protecting customer online identities, our products have protected billions of Web searches and personal communications. Anonymizer has set the standard in Internet privacy solutions.

When you place an order, download software, respond to our promotional campaigns, request email technical support or otherwise communicate with us about our goods or services, we will gather, retain and use certain personal information you provide to us. For example, we may collect information such as your name, contact information including address and email address, credit card number, bank account number, your billing and shipping address, and records of the kinds of products and services you have purchased from us or have started trial usage of. We will use this information to complete your order, respond to your request or communication, to assist us in providing our products and services to you, and to manage our relationship with you. By furnishing any such information to us, you expressly consent to the use of your information in accordance with the terms of this privacy policy.
For your protection, all information with respect to an order, including the credit card holder's name, credit card number, expiration date, security code and billing address, is subject to verification prior to processing any order. This is to assist us in preventing fraud and the unauthorized use of a credit card without the cardholder's permission. Records of your billing information are kept separately from records of your Internet activities because our billing system and Anonymizer privacy and security services run independently.
When you use Anonymizer's anonymous Web surfing products and services, due to the configuration of Anonymizer's systems, Anonymizer cannot correlate any individual user with a visit of any individual website. Furthermore, Anonymizer keeps no record of Internet Protocol addresses visited, except as provided in the following sentence. For troubleshooting purposes from time to time it may become necessary for Anonymizer, during limited and usually brief periods of time, to maintain usage data to assist Anonymizer in debugging its system or addressing other problems in its products or services. This usage data may include such information as the Web request, the date and time of your login. This information is not retained once the troubleshooting is resolved. Please note that Anonymizer's products and services are sold and furnished to its customers pursuant to terms and conditions of end user license agreements governing use of the particular products or services being furnished, which agreements may contain provisions regarding the generation, maintenance, use and disposition of customer information which supplement or vary from those of this privacy policy, and which will take precedence in governing the customer's use of the subject products or services.
Customers using Nyms and Total Net Shield are provided an anonymous email address that correlates in our system back to their username and real identity. Unless addressed to us, we do not read email messages, instant messages, online chats, or the content of other online communications that pass through our service. Anonymizer will not disclose customer identities or information concerning email communication except as stated below in the discussion of our information sharing practices.
Anonymizer will not sell, rent, trade, or lease your personal information for marketing purposes. We may share information with third parties who furnish services necessary to provide you with the products and services offered by us but only if these third parties agree to comply with our privacy policies and not use your personal data for any other purpose. Apart from this, we disclose personal information only when we have a good faith belief that access, use, preservation or disclosure of such information is reasonably necessary to (a) satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or enforceable governmental request, (b) enforce applicable terms of use or other contract rights, including investigation of potential violations thereof, (c) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues (including abuse of our products or services by spamming or other abuses of netiquette, and use of our products or services to attack other systems or to gain unauthorized access to any other system) or (d) protect against imminent harm to the rights, property or safety of Anonymizer, our customers or the public. Please note that if Anonymizer sells all or a portion of its business or assets, Anonymizer reserves the right to transfer customer information to the acquirer as part of that acquisition.
