Information we collect and how we use it
We offer a number of services that do not require you to register for
an account or provide any personal information. In order to provide our
full range of services, we may collect the following types of information:
- Information you provide
– When you sign up for an account
or other service or promotion that requires registration, we ask you for
personal information (such as your name, email address and an account
password). For certain products we also request credit card or other
payment account information which we maintain in encrypted form on
secure servers.
- Cookies
– When you visit our website, we send one or more
cookies – a small file containing a string of characters – to your
computer that uniquely identifies your browser. We use cookies to
improve the quality of our service by storing user preferences and
tracking user trends, such as how people search.
- User communications
– When you send email or other
communications, we may retain those communications in order to process
your inquiries, respond to your requests and improve our services.
Choices for personal information
When you sign up for a particular service that requires registration,
we ask you to provide personal information. If we use this information in
a manner different than the purpose for which it was collected, then we
will ask for your consent prior to such use.
If we propose to use personal information for any purposes other than
those described in this Privacy Policy and/or in the specific service
privacy notices, we will offer you an effective way to opt out of the use
of personal information for those other purposes. We will not collect or
use sensitive information for purposes other than those described in this
Privacy Policy and/or in the supplementary service privacy notices, unless
we have obtained your prior consent.
Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies, but you can reset
your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being
sent. However, some features and services may not function properly if
your cookies are disabled. You can decline to submit personal information
to any of our services, in which case we may not be able to provide those
services to you.
Information security
We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized
access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of data.
These include internal reviews of our data collection, storage and
processing practices and security measures, as well as physical security
measures to guard against unauthorized access to systems where we store
personal data.
We restrict access to personal information employees, contractors and
agents who need to know that information in order to operate, develop or
improve our services. These individuals are bound by confidentiality
obligations and may be subject to discipline, including termination and
criminal prosecution, if they fail to meet these obligations.
Data integrity
We processes personal information only for the purposes for which it
was collected and in accordance with this Privacy Policy or any applicable
service-specific privacy notice. We review our data collection, storage
and processing practices to ensure that we only collect, store and process
the personal information needed to provide or improve our services. We
take reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information we process
is accurate, complete, and current, but we depend on our users to update
or correct their personal information whenever necessary.
Enforcement
When we receive formal written complaints at this address, it is our
policy to contact the complaining user regarding his or her concerns. We
will cooperate with the appropriate regulatory authorities, including
local data protection authorities, to resolve any complaints regarding the
transfer of personal data that cannot be resolved,
Changes to this Privacy Policy
Please note that this Privacy Policy may change from time to time. We
will not reduce your rights under this Privacy Policy without your
explicit consent, and we expect most such changes will be minor.
Regardless, we will post any Privacy Policy changes on this page and, if
the changes are significant, we will provide a more prominent notice
(including, for certain services, email notification of Privacy Policy
changes). Each version of this Privacy Policy will be identified at the
top of the page by its effective date, and we will also keep prior
versions of this Privacy Policy in an archive for your review.
If you have any additional questions or concerns about this Privacy
Policy, please feel free to contact us any time.
