If you are directly or indirectly collecting any personally identifiable information from any Cliqset User, it must be clear that the information is being collected directly by you, and not by Cliqset, and you must clearly post a link to your privacy policy at the point such information is collected. Such privacy policy must be at least as stringent and user-favorable as the Cliqset Privacy Policy and you must fully comply with such policy in the collection, use and storage of such personal information, as well as complying with any privacy settings selected by the user for their Cliqset account of which you are aware.
