PRIVACY POLICY
Onlineapology is firmly committed to privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for this website, Onlineapology®™.
The protection of your privacy being very important, we have adopted the following practices to safeguard the confidentiality of your personal information. We will notify all registered users via email of any material change to this Privacy Policy, unless you have opted-out of receiving email from us. From time to time, changes to this Privacy Policy will also be communicated on this site.
What information do you gather automatically from visitors?
We use your IP address (the series of numbers associated with your individual computer) to help us maintain our site and identify problems with our server. Your IP address does not disclose any personally revealing information about you.
We do use cookies to identify traffic that comes through advertising and to facilitate a more user-friendly experience. Cookies are small pieces of information that a website places on your computer's hard drive so we know it's you when you visit. This helps us create a personalized experience for you. If you are uncomfortable with this, you can disable all cookies through your browser settings. Your enjoyment of our site won't be affected if you have set your browser to reject cookies.
What information will you ask me for?
When you register to use any Onlineapology service, you will be asked for general information, which enables us to provide you with individualized service. We gather contact information (like your email address) and demographic information (like your city of residence or age). We may share some of this information for research purposes with our professional advisors, consultants, and third-party partners, but the information shared will be limited to non-personally identifying demographic data under a confidentiality agreement.
Once registered, you can create a pseudonymous profile (nickname and personal description) in our communities. This information is not linked to your personally identifiable information but is visible to other members.
How will this information be used and who has access to it?
We may use your contact information to send updates, timely notices, and mailbox status reports if you choose to receive them. You can modify your preferences at any time under the "My Account" section.
We reserve the right to use your contact information to advise you of updates affecting your rights or status on our site.
How long do you keep the information I've given you?
We retain your information for as long as you are a member of the site or as required by law, whichever is longer.
Can I change the information I have already given you?
You can verify, change, or request the removal of your personally identifiable information by selecting "My Account" or contacting the Privacy Officer at the address below.
What security features do you have?
We use secure socket layer technology (SSL) to encrypt sensitive information, such as credit card numbers, during transmission. While we follow industry standards to protect your personal information, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.
Advertisers
We may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads on our behalf. These companies may employ cookies and action tags to measure advertising effectiveness. Any information they collect is completely anonymous.
Associates
When you register as an Associate, your information will be used only by internal staff to approve your association and facilitate communication.
