Privacy Statement
This is the
Copyright My Book's Internet Privacy Statement. Together with the Policy on
Collection and Use of Personal Information, this privacy statement discloses
the privacy practices for
www.copyrightmybook.org.
Information Collection and Use
Copyright My Book is the sole owner of the information collected on this
site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways
other than those outlined in this statement. Copyright My Book collects
information from our users at several different points on our Web site.
Personal info provided by users will be used by COPYRIGHT MY BOOK to improve
the site and provide a more personalized experience for the user, but
information which identifies a specific individual will not be disclosed to
others without the user’s permission unless necessary to provide services
which the user has requested.
Registration
It is optional for a user to complete a registration form. If a user chooses
to complete one, a user is required to give certain information (such as
name and email address). This information may be used to contact the user
about the services on our site for which they have expressed interest.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's hard drive containing
information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any
personally identifiable information while on our site. Once the user closes
the browser, the cookie simply terminates. For instance, by setting a cookie
from our site, the user would not have to log in a password more than once,
thereby saving time while on our site. If users reject the cookie, they may
still use our site. Cookies can also enable us to track and target the
interests of our users as they visit different sections of our site.
Log
Files
We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track users'
movement, and gather broad information for aggregate use. IP addresses are
not linked to personally identifiable information.
Sharing
We will share aggregate information with our partners and advertisers. This
aggregate information does not contain personally identifiable information
and therefore cannot identify any specific individual. We use an outside
credit card processing company to bill users for goods and services. These
companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable
information for any secondary purposes. We partner with other parties to
provide specific services such as a secured site for financial transactions.
When the user signs up for these services, we will share names, or other
contact information that is necessary for the third party to provide these
services, with the permission of the user. These parties are not allowed to
use personally identifiable information except for the purpose of providing
these services.
Links
This Web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that Copyright
My Book is not responsible for the privacy practices of such sites. We
encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the
privacy statements of every Web site that collects personally identifiable
information. The COPYRIGHT MY BOOK privacy statement applies solely to
information collected by the Copyright My Book Web site.
Newsletter
If a user wishes to subscribe to our push email technology or newsletters,
we ask for contact information such as name and email address.
Surveys & Contests
From time to time our site requests information from users via surveys.
Participation in these surveys is completely voluntary and the user
therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information.
Information requested may include demographic information (such as name and
shipping address, zip code, or age level. Survey information will be used
for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this
site.
Security
This Web site takes every precaution to protect our users' information. All
of our users' information is restricted in our offices. Only employees who
need the information to perform a specific job (e.g., our Finance
department) are granted access to personally identifiable information. The
servers used to store personally identifiable information are kept in a
secure environment. If you have any questions about the security at our Web
site, you can contact us.
Supplementation of Information
In order for this Web site to enhance its ability to tailor the site to an
individual's preference, we might combine information about the purchasing
habits of users with similar information from other partners, to create a
personalized user profile. The personalized user profile will be used to
improve the site and provide a more personalized experience for the user,
but will not be disclosed to others.
Site and Service Updates
We also send the registered site users service announcement updates. Users
are not able to unsubscribe from service announcements, which contain
important information about the service. We communicate with the user to
provide requested services and account information via email or phone.
Correction/Updating Personal Information
If a user's personally identifiable information changes (such as a zip
code), or if a user no longer desires our service, we will make our best
effort to provide a way to correct, update or remove that user's personal
data from our records, but this may require additional effort as Polaris
works to synchronize all customer data sources.
Choice/Opt-out
Our users may be given the opportunity to "opt-out" of having their personal
information used by third parties for purposes not directly related to our
site at the point where we ask for the information. Users who no longer wish
to receive our newsletter or promotional materials from our partners may
opt-out of receiving these communications by following the "unsubscribe"
instructions in the email message.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post changes on our home
page so our users are always aware of the information we collect, the ways
we use it, and any circumstances under which we disclose it. We will use
information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the
information was collected.
