Policies
We take your electronic privacy
seriously. Questions regarding this statement or our practices should be
directed to SeniorVision Productions by email at privacy@seniorvision.com.
You may also send inquiries by mail to:
Privacy Coordinator
SeniorVision Productions, Inc.
P.O. Box 300
East Bridgewater, MA 02333
We reserve the right to change our policy from time to time as we deem
appropriate in our sole discretion.
KINDS OF INFORMATION
There are two
kinds of information Web sites can obtain about you:
AGGREGATE
INFORMATION: Aggregate Information is anonymous data that Web
sites use to diagnose problems on the sites' servers, administer the
sites, and to help improve the quality of the Web pages. It may be your
domain name (i.e. "XYZ.com") or your IP address.
PERSONALLY
IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION: Personally Identifiable Information is
any information that personally identifies you. It can be your first and
last name, your email address, your home address, or your telephone
number. Sometimes this personal information is needed when you order
products online or subscribe to an email newsletter. Other times, web
sites collect this information to help target advertising and marketing.
We collect Aggregate Information - such as your IP address (a
number that's automatically assigned to your computer whenever you're
surfing the Internet), browser type (e.g., Netscape or Internet
Explorer), and domain (e.g., "XYZ.com"). We do this in the background so
it does not interrupt your cruising speed. We use this information to
help diagnose problems with our servers, to administer our site, and to
gather broad demographic information. We share Aggregate Information
with third parties for advertising and promotional purposes. None of
this information is connected with Personally Identifiable Information.
So, when you enter our site, you are anonymous and will remain that way
unless you choose otherwise.
COOKIES
We use cookies to remember your
name so that you can maintain a customized view of Seniorvision.com. We may also use cookies when we
conduct polls, surveys, chat rooms and contests to limit multiple
responses and registrations.
We will never use cookies to
retrieve information from your computer that was not originally sent by
us to you in a cookie. We do not use information transferred through
cookies for any promotional or marketing purposes.
You may
occasionally get cookies from our advertisers and our vendors. We do not
control these cookies, and these cookies are not subject to our privacy
policy. The use of advertising cookies sent by third-party servers is
standard in the Internet industry.
Most browsers are initially
set to accept cookies. If you'd prefer, you can set yours to refuse
cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. However, it is
possible that some parts of the site, such as the polls, surveys,
contest, and game areas, will not function properly if you do so.
SURVEYS AND REGISTRATION FORMS
Sometimes SeniorVision.com posts surveys and registration forms in which we
ask for Personally Identifiable Information. Here are some ways we might
use that information:
To send you information about SeniorVision and
this Web site
To give to our content partners, who may send you
promotional material
To give to our advertisers, who may send you
information about their products and services
The choice is
yours - you do not have to answer surveys or register for newsletters or
service. If you choose to answer the survey or complete the
registration, we will tell you on the survey or registration form how we
will use the Personally Identifiable Information. If we are asking for
optional information, we will mark it with an asterisk (*) so you know
you can skip it if you want. And on that same page we will give you a
way to "opt out" of being contacted by SeniorVision.com and any third parties. We
may share Personally Identifiable Information with SeniorVision affiliates and
other sites operated by SeniorVision and its affiliates.
CONTESTS
AND SWEEPSTAKES
From time to time SeniorVision.com runs
contests and sweepstakes in which we ask for Personally
Identifiable
Information such as your name, email address or telephone number. That's
so we can let you know if you win. Sometimes we request additional
Personally Identifiable Information such as your age, gender, and income
level. And once in a while - though not often - we require this
additional information in exchange for allowing you to enter the
contest. Here are some of the ways we might use the information that we
collect:
- To notify you if you are a
winner
- To send you information about SeniorVision and our
site
- To give to content partners, who may send you
promotional email
- To give to advertisers, who may
send you emails about their products and services
We may
share Aggregate Information with our partners and advertisers. We will
not share your Personally Identifiable Information with third parties
unless we tell you otherwise when asking for it. We will give you a way
to "opt out" of being contacted by SeniorVision.com and any third parties. We may
share Personally Identifiable Information with SeniorVision affiliates and
other sites operated by SeniorVision and its affiliates.
If you win one
of our contests or sweepstakes, we will not publish your name, hometown,
or other Personally Identifiable Information on the Site unless you give
us your permission.
OPT OUT
If we ask you
for Personally Identifiable Information, we will tell you if we intend
to share it with others. We will provide you with a way to tell us that
you don't want us to share the information or if you don't want to
receive promotional and/or marketing information about products,
services, and offerings from SeniorVision.com and/or any third parties. Let us
know and we will use your name and address only to tell you if you win a
contest.
SUBPOENAS AND LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES
We reserve the right to cooperate with government and law
enforcement agencies engaged in investigations of activities that are,
or are believed to be, illegal. Further, we may share your Personally
Identifiable Information with such agencies if we believe that a crime
or any act that endangers the health and safety of others may have been
or may be committed. We may also share your Personally Identifiable
Information in response to an appropriate subpoena.
COMMUNITY
AND PUBLIC AREAS
Information posted to message
boards or chat areas is available to the general public. Please use
caution when posting any such information. Users under the age of 18
should be particularly careful not to provide any personally identifying
information while using chat rooms or message boards. We reserve the
right to, but are not obligated to, refuse or delete any content that in
our sole discretion is considered inappropriate. Please see our Terms of
Service for additional information.
LINKS TO
OTHER SITES
When you visit our site, you may be
directed to other sites outside our service. For example, if you click
on a banner advertisement, you will leave our site. This includes links
to sites operated by advertisers, sponsors and partners that may use our
logo as part of an agreement with us. These other sites may send their
own cookies to users, collect data, or solicit personal information.
These other sites are not subject to our privacy policy and we are not
responsible for the privacy policies for these other sites, nor for the
use of any information that these sites may collect.
DELETING OR MODIFYING YOUR INFORMATION
If you've given us Personally Identifiable Information in the
past and then have second thoughts or want to update it, here are your
choices:
Email to privacy@seniorvision.com.
Regular mail
to:
Privacy Coordinator
SeniorVision Productions, Inc.
P.O. Box 300
East Bridgewater, MA 02333
Although it is not
always possible to remove or modify information in the databases, we
will make reasonable efforts to do so. If you've given us information
for one of those third parties we mentioned above and we've already
passed it on, we cannot delete or change the information.
SECURITY
OF PRIVATE INFORMATION
Any personal information you
give us is kept in secure files. Access is limited to the few employees
who have a need to know. We would like to tell you that your information
is as safe with us as it is in your head, but, as hackers have proved
worldwide, no computer security system is entirely foolproof. The most
any Web site can do is make reasonable efforts, which is what we do at
SeniorVision.com, to protect
your information from theft, misuse and alteration.
