| Our Commitment to
Privacy |
 |
| Our Privacy Policy
was developed as an extension of our commitment to combine
the highest-quality products and services with the highest
level of integrity in dealing with our clients and partners.
The Policy is designed to assist you in understanding
how we collect, use and safeguard the personal information
you provide to us and to assist you in making informed
decisions when using our site and our products and services.
This statement will be continuously assessed against
new technologies, business practices and our customers'
needs. |
 |
| What Information
Do We Collect? |
 |
| When you visit our Web
site you may provide us with two types of information:
personal information you knowingly choose to disclose
that is collected on an individual basis and Web site
use information collected on an aggregate basis as you
and others browse our Web site. |
 |
| Personal Information
You Choose to Provide |
 |
Credit Card Information
If you choose to purchase products or services from
us or our partners, you may need to give personal information
and authorization to obtain information from various
credit services. For example, you may need to provide
the following information:
· Name
· Mailing address
· Email address
· Credit card number
· Home and business phone number
· Other personal information (i.e. mother’s
maiden name)
Email Information
In addition to providing the foregoing information to
our partners, if you choose to correspond further with
us through email, we may retain the content of your
email messages together with your email address and
our responses. We provide the same protections for these
electronic communications that we employ in the maintenance
of information received by mail and telephone. |
 |
| Web Site Use Information |
 |
| Similar to other commercial
Web sites, our Web site utilizes a standard technology
called “cookies” (see explanation below, “What
Are Cookies?”) and Web server logs to collect information
about how our Web site is used. Information gathered through
cookies and Web server logs may include the date and time
of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at our Web site,
and the Web sites visited just before and just after our
Web site. This information is collected on an aggregate
basis. None of this information is associated with you
as an individual. |
 |
| How Do We Use the
Information That You Provide to Us? |
 |
Broadly speaking,
we use personal information for purposes of administering
our business activities, providing customer service
and making available other products and services to
our customers and prospective customers. Occasionally,
we may also use the information we collect to notify
you about important changes to our Web site, new services
and special offers we think you will find valuable.
The lists used to send you product and service offers
are developed and managed under our traditional corporate
standards designed to safeguard the security and privacy
of our customers’ personal information. As a customer,
you will be given the opportunity, at least once annually,
to notify us of your desire not to receive these offers.
What Are Cookies? Cookies are a feature of Web browser
software that allows Web servers to recognize the computer
used to access a Web site. Cookies are small pieces
of data that are stored by a user’s Web browser
on the user’s hard drive. Cookies can remember
what information a user accesses on one Web page to
simplify subsequent interactions with that Web site
by the same user or to use the information to streamline
the user’s transactions on related Web pages.
This makes it easier for a user to move from Web page
to Web page and to complete commercial transactions
over the Internet. Cookies should make your online experience
easier and more personalized. |
 |
| How Do We Use Information
We Collect from Cookies? |
 |
We use Web site browser
software tools such as cookies and Web server logs to
gather information about our Web site users’ browsing
activities, in order to constantly improve our Web site
and better serve our customers. This information assists
us to design and arrange our Web pages in the most user-friendly
manner and to continually improve our Web site to better
meet the needs of our customers and prospective customers.
Cookies help us collect important business and technical
statistics. The information in the cookies lets us trace
the paths followed by users to our Web site as they
move from one page to another. Web server logs allow
us to count how many people visit our Web site and evaluate
our Web site’s visitor capacity. We do not use
these technologies to capture your individual email
address or any personally identifying information about
you although they do permit us to send focused online
banner advertisements or other such responses to you. |
 |
| Sharing Information
with Affiliates |
 |
| From time to time you
may notice offers from outside companies advertised on
our Web site. We take measures to select product or service
providers that are responsible and afford privacy protections
to their customers. However, we cannot make any representations
about the practices and policies of these companies. |
 |
| Sharing Information
with Strategic Partners |
 |
| We may enter into strategic
marketing alliances or partnerships with third parties
who may be given access to personal information including
your name, address, telephone number and email for the
purpose of providing you information regarding products
and services that we think will be of interest to you.
In connection with strategic marketing alliances or partnerships,
we will retain all ownership rights to the information,
and we will not share information regarding your social
security number or other personal financial data. |
 |
| Notice of New Services
and Changes |
 |
| Occasionally, we may
also use the information we collect to notify you about
important changes to our Web site, new services and special
offers we think you will find valuable. As our client,
you will be given the opportunity to notify us of your
desire not to receive these offers by clicking on a response
box when you receive such an offer or by sending us an
email request at webadmin@darrellsdirt.com. |
 |
| How Do We Secure
Information Transmissions? |
 |
When you send confidential
personal credit card information to us on our Web site,
a secure server software which we have licensed encrypts
all information you input before it is sent to us. The
information is scrambled en route and decoded once it
reaches our Web site.
Other email that you may send to us may not be secure
unless we advise you that security measures will be
in place prior to your transmitting the information.
For that reason, we ask that you do not send confidential
information such as Social Security or account numbers
to us through an unsecured email. |
 |
| How Do We Protect
Your Information? |
 |
Information Security.
We utilize encryption/security software to safeguard
the confidentiality of personal information we collect
from unauthorized access or disclosure and accidental
loss, alteration or destruction.
Evaluation of Information Protection Practices. Periodically,
our operations and business practices are reviewed for
compliance with corporate policies and procedures governing
the security, confidentiality and quality of our information.
Employee Access, Training and Expectations. Our corporate
values, ethical standards, policies and practices are
committed to the protection of customer information.
In general, our business practices limit employee access
to confidential information, and limit the use and disclosure
of such information to authorized persons, processes
and transactions. |
 |
| How Can You Access
and Correct Your Information? |
 |
| You may request access
to all your personally identifiable information that we
collect online and maintain in our database by emailing
webadmin@darrellsdirt.com. |
 |
| Do We Disclose Information
to Outside Parties? |
 |
| We may provide aggregate
information about our customers, sales, Web site traffic
patterns and related Web site information to our affiliates
or reputable third parties, but this information will
not include personally identifying data, except as otherwise
provided in this Privacy Policy. |
 |
| What About Legally
Compelled Disclosure of Information? |
 |
| We may disclose information
when legally compelled to do so, in other words, when
we, in good faith, believe that the law requires it or
for the protection of our legal rights. |
 |
| What About Other
Web Sites Linked to Our Web Site? |
 |
We are not responsible
for the practices employed by Web sites linked to or
from our Web site nor the information or content contained
therein. Often links to other Web sites are provided
solely as pointers to information on topics that may
be useful to the users of our Web site.
Please remember that when you use a link to go from
our Web site to another Web site, our Privacy Policy
is no longer in effect. Your browsing and interaction
on any other Web site, including Web sites which have
a link on our Web site, is subject to that Web site’s
own rules and policies. Please read over those rules
and policies before proceeding. |
 |
| Your Consent |
 |
| By using our Web site
you consent to our collection and use of your personal
information as described in this Privacy Policy. If we
change our privacy policies and procedures, we will post
those changes on our Web site to keep you aware of what
information we collect, how we use it and under what circumstances
we may disclose it. |
