DeeSnider.com & WebVantage LLC ("we") owns and operates the web site located at www.deesnider.com (the "Service"). We have created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to the protection of our users' privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for the Service and forms part of our Terms of Use. Please take a moment to review the terms of our Privacy Policy. By using the Service, you agree to accept the terms of our Privacy Policy. If you choose not to consent to this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Service. This Privacy Policy applies only to information collected on the Service. It does not apply to information which we may collect by means other than on the Service.
1. Information We Collect and How It Is Used
AGGREGATE INFORMATION
From time to time, we may collect general, non-personal, statistical information about the use of the Service, such as how many visitors visit a specific web page on the Service, how long they stay on that page, and which hyperlinks, if any, they "click" on. We collect this information through the use of technologies such as "cookies" and "server logs", which are discussed in greater detail below. We collect this information in order to determine which areas of the Service are most popular and to enhance the Service for visitors. We may also group this information into aggregate visitor data in order to describe the use of the Service to our existing or potential business partners, sponsors, advertisers or other third parties, or in response to a government request. However, please be assured that this aggregate data will in no way personally identify you or any other visitors to the Service. Server Logs. Our servers record your computer's IP address in "server logs" when you use the Service. We use these logs for statistical tracking and to administer the Service. Your IP address is also used to gather aggregate information about the use of the Service that does not specifically identify you.
Cookies. We use cookies on certain pages of the Service. Cookies are small text files stored on your hard drive, not on the Service. A cookie is not a program, and does not itself have the ability to automatically collect personal information about you. A cookie can store certain information that identifies your browser to our servers in order to make the Service operate more smoothly. For example, when using cookies, you don't have to re-enter your password as frequently when you use the Service. We never save credit card information in cookies. Many cookies we use are "session cookies", which means that they are automatically deleted at the end of each session. We also use persistent cookies to keep track of each user's shopping cart information and items to be purchased. You always have the option of disabling cookies using your browser preferences. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, please be aware that some features of the Service may not function properly or may be slower if you refuse cookies. You may occasionally get cookies from our advertisers or other third parties with links on the Service. We do not control these cookies. The use of advertising cookies sent by third-party servers is standard in the Internet industry.
PERSONAL INFORMATION
Voluntary Contact. Except as provided in this Privacy Policy, if you send us personal information voluntarily, such as through personal correspondence, emails, or chat rooms, or if other users or third parties send us correspondence about your activities or postings on the Service, we may collect such information. We may use such information to respond to your questions or comments. We may also use such information, and other information that we obtain from your use of the Service, to resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems and enforce our Terms of Use agreement. Please also note that information you volunteer in public areas, such as chat rooms, message boards and blogs, is not protected information, and anyone could potentially collect and use such information in ways we cannot control. This Privacy Policy will not cover such disclosure of information. We urge you to use caution when disclosing any personal information on these venues.
Account Registration/Purchases. You are not required to provide any personal information in order to obtain general access to the Service. However, in order to access certain information, services or features contained on the Service, we may require you to provide certain personal information. For example, if you would like to sign up for our mailing list, make purchases or participate in certain contests, you will be asked to create an account on the Service and to provide information such as your name, e-mail address, date of birth, gender, shipping address, telephone number and language preference. If you choose to make purchases through the Service, such as purchasing merchandise at Skrew.com, you will be asked to provide certain additional information such as your credit card number and its expiration date. Personally identifying information is used to contact you when necessary in the day to day running of the Service, to deliver goods purchased through the Service and to process and fulfill any other transactions or services that you request. Financial information that is collected is used only in connection with your purchases and/or paid membership subscription (if any).
In addition to using your information as described above, we also may occasionally send you email announcing special promotions, changes in our services, and other information we believe will be of interest to you. You may opt-out of receiving these mailings, or any other e-mails we send to our mailing list, by using the unsubscribe feature in any email you receive from us. If you provide us with the e-mail address of a friend for e-cards provided by the Service (and not through a third party), we will retain your friend's e-mail address only to prevent spamming of that e-mail address and will not use it for any other purpose.
2. Disclosure of Personal Information
We may sometimes use other businesses to perform certain services for us, such as processing orders and delivering merchandise, sending postal mail and providing marketing assistance and data analysis. We may provide personal information to those businesses when that information is necessary for them to complete a requested transaction or otherwise perform their duties.
We may also sometimes form relationships with certain bands, venues or other businesses, such as promotional partners or sponsors, in order to enhance the information and services on the Service, help promote the Service or for other purposes. From time to time, we may share your e-mail address and other personal information with those business partners, and you may receive periodic offers or other communications from them. However, if you have unsubscribed from our e-mail list, or if you indicate on the Service that you do not want us to share your personal information with our business partners, then we will not share your personal information with our business partners unless you subsequently opt in to such sharing.
In addition, if you have created an account on the Service and if we share your personal information with our business partners in accordance with this Privacy Policy, you may subsequently opt out of future information sharing with such parties at any time by logging into your account and updating your profile as further described below. However, please note that opting out of future information sharing with our business partners will not affect their use of any information that we might have shared with them before you opted out of such sharing. Except as provided in this Privacy Policy, we will not share your personal information with any third parties without your prior consent.
We cannot ensure that all of your private communications and other personally identifiable information will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise described in this Privacy Policy. For example, we may be forced to disclose information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances without your consent, or third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications. We can (and you authorize us to) disclose any information about you to law enforcement or other government officials as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or appropriate in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringement, or other activity that is illegal, may expose us to legal liability or may harm the Service or any of our visitors.
