Information
Collection and Use
Information
Collection
CinoFusion LLC is the sole owner of the information collected on www.cinofusion.com.
CinoFusion LLC collects information from our users at several different
points on our Web site.
Registration
In order to use parts of this Web site, a user must first complete the
registration form. During registration a user is required to give[s]
contact information (such as name and email address). We use this information
to contact the user about services on our site for which he has expressed
interest. It is optional for the user to provide demographic information
(such as income level and gender), and unique identifiers (such as,
username and password), but encouraged so we can provide a more personalized
experience on our site.
Order
We request information from the user on our order form. A user must
provide contact information (such as name, email, and shipping address)
and financial information (such as credit card number, expiration date).
This information is used for billing purposes and to fill customer’s
orders. If we have trouble processing an order, the information is used
to contact the user.
Information Use
CinoFusion LLC will use information to contact users on products
and services or to send requested information to our users. A telephone
call from CinoFusion LLC will also be made. The information will not
be sold or transfered to any other party.
Profile
We store information that we collect through cookies, log files, clear
gifs, and/or third parties to create a profile of our users. A profile
is stored information that we keep on individual users that details
their viewing preferences. Consequently, collected information is tied
to the users personally identifiable information to provide offers and
improve the content of the site for the user. This profile is used to
tailor a user’s visit to our Web site, and to direct pertinent
marketing promotions to them. We do not share your profile with other
third parties.
Cookies
A
cookie is a piece of data stored on the user’s computer tied to
information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to
any personally identifiable information while on our site. We use both
session ID cookies and persistent cookies. For the session ID cookie,
once users close the browser, the cookie simply terminates. A persistent
cookie is a small text file stored on the user’s hard drive for
an extended period of time. Persistent cookies can be removed by following
Internet browser help file directions.
Log
Files
Like most standard Web site servers we use log files. This
includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service
provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp,
and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user’s
movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information
for aggregate use. IP addresses, etc. are not linked to personally identifiable
information.
Clear
Gifs (Web Beacons/Web Bugs)
We employ a software technology called clear gifs (a.k.a. Web
Beacons/Web Bugs), that help us better manage content on our site by
informing us what content is effective. Clear gifs are tiny graphics
with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used
to track the online movements of Web users. The main difference between
the two is that clear gifs are invisible on the page and are much smaller,
about the size of the period at the end of this sentence.
Clear
Gifs can "work with" existing cookies on a computer if they
are both from the same Web site or advertising company. That means,
for example, that if a person visited “www.companyX.com”,
which uses an advertising company's clear gif, the Web site [or advertising
company] would match the clear gif's identifier and the advertising
company's cookie ID number, to show the past online behavior for that
computer. This collected information would then be given to the advertising
company [or Web site].
In
addition, we use clear gifs in our HTML-based emails to let us know
which emails have been opened by the recipients. This allows us to gauge
the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of
our marketing campaigns. If users would like to opt-out of these emails,
please see the Opt-out section.
Communications from the Site
Special
Offers and Updates
We send all new members a welcoming email to verify password and username.
Established members will occasionally receive information on products,
services, special deals, and a newsletter. Out of respect for the privacy
of our users we present the option to not receive these types of communications.
Please see the Choice and Opt-out sections.
Newsletter
If a user wishes to subscribe to our newsletter, we ask for contact
information such as name and email address. Out of respect for our users
privacy we provide a way to opt-out of these communications. Please
see the Choice and Opt-out sections.
Service
Announcements
On rare occasions it is necessary to send out a strictly service
related announcement. For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended
for maintenance we might send users an email. Generally, users may not
opt-out of these communications, though they can deactivate their account.
However, these communications are not promotional in nature.
Customer
Service
We
communicate with users on a regular basis to provide requested services
and in regards to issues relating to their account we reply via email
or phone, in accordance with the users wishes.
Sharing
Legal
Disclaimer
Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may
need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we
have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with
a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served
on our Web site.
Business
Transitions
In the event CinoFusion LLC goes through a business transition,
such as a merger, being acquired by another company, or selling a portion
of its assets, users’ personal information will, in most instances,
be part of the assets transferred.
Choice/Opt-out
Our users are given the opportunity to ‘opt-out’ of having
their information used for purposes not directly related to our site
at the point where we ask for information. For example, our order form
has an ‘opt-out’ mechanism so users who buy a product from
us, but don’t want any marketing material, can keep their email
address off of our lists.
Users
who no longer wish to receive our newsletter and promotional communications
may opt-out of receiving these communications by replying to unsubscribe
in the subject line in the email or email us at info@cinofusion.com.
Users
of our site are always notified when their information is being collected
by any outside parties. We do this so our users can make an informed
choice as to whether or not they should proceed with services that require
an outside party.
Links
This Web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we,
CinoFusion LLC, are not responsible for the privacy practices of such
other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our
site and to read the privacy statements of each and every Web site that
collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement
applies solely to information collected by this Web site.
Surveys & Contests
From time-to-time our site requests information from users via surveys
or contests. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely
voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose
this information. The requested information typically includes contact
information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information
(such as zip code). Contact information will be used [shared with the
contest [survey] sponsors] to notify the winners and award prizes. [Anonymous]
Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving
the use and satisfaction of this site. Users’ personally identifiable
information is not shared with third parties unless we give prior notice
and choice. Though we may use an intermediary to conduct these surveys
or contests, they may not use users’ personally identifiable information
for any secondary purposes.
Chat
Rooms, Message Boards, and Public Forums
Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal
information online - for example on message boards, through e-mail,
or in chat areas - that information can be collected and used by others.
In short, by posting personal information online that is publicly accessible,
you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return.
Security
This Web site takes every precaution to protect our users’ information.
When users submit sensitive information via the Web site, their information
is protected both online and off-line.
When
our registration/order form asks users to enter sensitive information
(such as credit card number and/or social security number), that information
is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the
industry - SSL. While on a secure page, such as our order form, the
lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and
Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked,
or open, when users are just ‘surfing’.
While
we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also
do everything in our power to protect user-information off-line. All
of our users’ information, not just the sensitive information
mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need
the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing
clerk or a customer service representative) are granted access to personally
identifiable information. Our employees must use password-protected
screen-savers when they leave their desk. When they return, they must
re-enter their password to re-gain access to user information. Furthermore,
ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices.
Every quarter, as well as any time new policies are added, our employees
are notified and/or reminded about the importance we place on privacy,
and what they can do to ensure our users’ information is protected.
Finally, the servers that store personally identifiable information
are in a secure environment.
If
users have any questions about the security at our Web site, users can
send an email to info@cinofusion.com
Supplementation
of Information
In
order for this Web site to properly fulfill its obligation to users
it is necessary for us to supplement the information we receive with
information from 3rd party sources.
Credit
Check
For example, to determine if users qualify for one of our credit
cards, we use their name and social security number to request a credit
report. Once we determine a user’s credit-worthiness, this document
is destroyed.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those
changes to this privacy statement, the homepage, and other places we
deem appropriate so our users are always aware of what information we
collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose
it.
