Privacy Policy SunAfrica.com L.L.C. is committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. This Privacy Statement sets out our privacy policy and explains what we do with the personal information that we collect from our users. Please read the following to understand our practices regarding personal information, and how they pertain to you as you use our various features and services. This statement discloses the current privacy practices for our Web sites. If we make any substantive changes to this policy, we'll announce it on our site. What Information Does SuAfrica.com Gather About You? SunAfrica.com collects a limited amount of information about our members, so that we can provide a site that is more interesting and useful, as well as provide advertising that is more appropriate for our members. We ask for personally identifiable information when you register for a free E-mail for instance, and when you use certain SunAFrica.com products and services. We also automatically receive and collect IP addresses to help us understand how you use our site, so that we can make our site better and improve our users' overall experience when they visit SunAfrica.com. For these same reasons, if your browser is set up to accept them, we use a feature known as a "cookie." Cookies contain bits of information that Web sites transfer to your Internet appliance for record keeping purposes. Cookies can make the Web more useful by storing information about your preferences on a particular site such as ours. Although we may assign your browser a cookie, it doesn't tell us who you are. Making A Purchase Through SunAfrica.com SunAfrica.com makes available a wide range of products and services offered by our merchant partners, who have their own privacy and data collection practices. SunAfrica.com does not collect, see or have access to any personal information you may provide any of our merchant partners when you make a purchase from them. About Information Sharing and Disclosure SunAfrica.com collects personal information to provide you with the best and most personalized Web experience possible and to provide our advertisers with an efficient means to reach the right audience. In short, by knowing a little about you, we can deliver more relevant content and advertisements to you while at our Web site. And it's free. SunAfrica.com will not give, lend, sell, or rent your personally identifiable information to anyone. We will send personally identifiable information to a third party when: 1. We have your consent to share the information. 2. We need to share the information to provide the product or service you have requested. 3. We respond to subpoenas, court orders or legal process. IP Addresses and Cookies SunAfrica.com collects IP addresses for the purposes of system administration and for studying how people use our site and how we can improve it. Cookies are used on SunAfrica.com in three ways. We use cookies to automatically access your previously stored account information when you log in to our site in order to deliver a better and more personalized service. Cookies are used to estimate our audience size and usage patterns. Each browser accessing SunAfrica.com is given a unique cookie that is then used to determine usage patterns, and to help in targeting content and ads based on user interests. Advertising networks that serve ads onto our site may also use cookies but please note that we don't control, nor have access to those cookies. Most browsers are set up to accept cookies, but you can configure your browser to refuse cookies or to notify you when you've received one. If you reject cookies, though, you will not be able to use certain areas of our site. What Kind of Security Measures Do We Take to Protect Your Information from Accidental Loss or Disclosure? SunAfrica.com is committed to protecting your personal information. All information that you provide to us is stored on our secure servers. Access to personalized areas of the site are password-protected. Only you have access to these areas. We recommend that you do not share your password with anyone. SunAfrica.com will never ask you for your password in an unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited email. Also if you are using a computer that others have access to such as one in a public library, computer lab or Internet café, always remember to log out and close your browser window when leaving our site. What Else Should You Know About Your Privacy? The information you post on message boards and in chat rooms is visible to the public. That's really the point of these communication tools. Please remember that whenever you disclose personal information publicly - for example, on message boards, through email, or in chat areas - that information can be collected and used by others. In short, if you post personal information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return. If you don't want strangers to send you email, don't post your email address on a message board. Many of our advertisers or partners, such as advertisers, merchants, or content providers, link from our site to areas on their own sites where they sell their own goods and services. If you follow these links from our site to theirs, you should be aware that these other sites have their own privacy and data collection practices. SunAfrica.com has no responsibility or liability for these independent policies. For more information regarding a site and its privacy policies, check that site. |
