Privacy Policy
Information Collection and Use
The only personal information which we collect about you when you use our Web site is what you tell us about yourself or information you provide to us through the "Contact Us" section or when you send us an e-mail.
As most Web sites do, however, we do track usage patterns on our Web site on an anonymous basis. Your identity cannot reasonably be ascertained from this information. Each time you visit our Web site, our server records your Internet Service Provider, the date and time of your visit, the pages you visit and the documents downloaded, the searches you performed, and the referring URL’s you came from. We use this non-personal information to optimize our Web site service.
For your convenience, we may offer links from our Web site to other Web sites. However, Ready To Go Newsletters is not responsible for, nor do we accept any liability for, the personal information collection, use and disclosure practices of other entities to which our Web site may link. You should consult the privacy policies of these other entities before providing any personal information on their Web sites.
Your Consent
We collect, use and disclose your personal information with your consent or as permitted or required by law. Your consent may be express or implied, depending on the circumstances and the sensitivity of the personal information in question. If you provide personal information about another person to us, we assume you have the consent of that individual to enable us to collect, use or disclose their information as described in this policy. If you choose to provide personal information to Ready To go Newsletters, we assume that you consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information as outlined in this privacy statement.
If you do not consent, please do not provide your personal information or, where applicable, exercise the opt-in or opt-out options offered. Subject to legal and contractual requirements and reasonable notice, you may refuse to consent to our collection, use and disclosure of your personal information or you may withdraw your consent to our further collection, use and disclosure of information about you, by contacting us.
Security
Ready To Go Newsletters has implemented reasonable physical, organizational and technological security measures to safeguard the personal information in our custody or control. These include safeguards to protect personal information against loss or theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use, or modification.
Changes to this Statement
Ready To Go Newsletters reserves the right to change this privacy statement at any time and we will take reasonable steps to advise affected individuals of any material changes, if necessary. However, you should review this privacy statement from time to time to ensure that you are aware of and accept any changes made. You may contact us at the address, e-mail address or telephone number above to obtain a current copy of this privacy statement.
Registration
Some of our sites restrict access to online content. To gain entry a
user must first complete a registration form. During registration a user
is required to give their contact information (such as name and e-mail
address). For sites where online access to content is part of a
subscription package, registration forms will often contain full
subscriber details used to identify and fulfil that subscriber's
account.
E-mail alerts
If a user wishes to subscribe to our alerts, updates, briefings etc. we
ask for contact and delivery information such as name and e-mail
address. All of these e-mail lists provide opt out facilities online and
with each e-mail broadcast. In some cases the user is asked to provide
optional demographic and personal interest information that is used to
keep our content as relevant as possible.
Sharing
We will share aggregated demographic information with our partners and
advertisers. This is not linked to any personal information that can
identify any individual person. We would also share information when
using an outside shipping company to ship orders or a credit card
processing company to bill users for goods and services.
On some sites, which generate reports from directories and listings, we share the names and e-mail addresses of an individual user with some of companies whose products and services are mentioned within that report. Where this occurs there is an opt out provided if a user does not wish to receive any contact from those companies.
Orders
We request information from the user on our order forms. Here a user
must provide contact information (like name and shipping address) and
financial information (like credit card number, expiration date). This
information is used for billing purposes and to fulfil customer's
orders. If we have trouble processing an order, this contact information
is used to get in touch with the user. All online transactions are
processed using SSL encryption (see Security for more detail)
Cookies
Many of our sites use cookies - A cookie is a piece of data stored on
the user's hard drive containing information about the user. Usage of
cookies is for the convenience of visitors. For instance, by setting a
cookie on our site, the user would not have to log in a password more
than once, thereby saving time while on our site. If a user rejects the
cookie, they may still use our site. Cookies can also enable us to track
and target the interests of our users in order to enhance the experience
on our site. Some of our business partners use cookies on our site (for
example, advertisers). However, we have no access to, or control over,
these cookies.
Log Files
We use IP addresses to analyse trends, administer the site, track a
user's movement, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate
use. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Links
Some of our websites contain links to other sites. Please be aware that
Ready To Go Newsletters is not responsible for the privacy practices of
other sites. This privacy statement applies solely to information
collected by this website.
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. Information requested may include contact information
(such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such
as zip code, age level). Contact information will be used to notify the
winners and award prizes. Survey information will be used for purposes
of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site.
Recommend this site
If a user elects to use our referral service for informing a friend
about our site, we ask them for the friend's name and e-mail address. We
will automatically send the friend a one-time e-mail inviting them to
visit the site. This information is not stored except for the sole
purpose of sending this one-time e-mail.
Security
This website takes every precaution to protect our users' information.
When users submit sensitive information via the website, your
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 you 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. The servers that we store personally identifiable
information on are kept in a secure environment.
Special Offers
On some sites new members receive a welcome e-mail to verify password
and username. Established members will occasionally receive information
on products, services, special deals, and a newsletter. Where this is
the case we present the option to not receive these types of
communications at the point of sign up.
Site and Service Updates
We also send the user site and service announcement updates. Members are
not able to un-subscribe from service announcements, which contain
important information about the service. We communicate with the user to
provide requested services and in regards to issues relating to their
account via e-mail or phone.
Correction/Updating Personal Information
If a user's personally identifiable information changes (such as your
zip code), or if a user no longer desires our service, we will endeavour
to provide a way to correct, update or remove that user's personal data
provided to us. This can be done at the registration page or by
e-mailing the site editor. Many of our sites will offer subscribers an
account management facility that will allow them to change or amend
their own records.
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 the information. Users who no longer wish to
receive a newsletter/alert/briefing etc. may opt-out of receiving these
communications by replying to the unsubscribe link in the e-mail or
online.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will seek to advise all
users of these changes.
