PRIVACY POLICY Updated as of July 1, 2005 We care about your privacy. We will not sell information you provide us through this website to any third party without your permission. Please read our detailed privacy policy below for further details.
Cox Media respects the privacy of visitors to our site. By visiting this site, you agree that your visit, and any dispute over our online privacy practices, is governed by this Privacy Policy and our Visitor Agreement. This Privacy Policy does not apply to any information you may provide to us through other means. Questions regarding privacy issues should be directed to privacy@cox.com. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY Our website is not directed at, or intended for use by, children under the age of 13. Children should always get permission from their parents before sending any information about themselves (such as their names, email addresses, and phone numbers) over the Internet, to us or to anyone else. We won't knowingly allow anyone under 13 to provide any other personally identifying information. If you're under 13, please do not provide us with any personally identifying information about yourself (such as your name, your email address or your phone number). TYPES OF INFORMATION WE COLLECT The information we gather falls into two categories: (1) information (for example, your name and address) that you voluntarily supply when you contact us, and (2) information gathered on usage patterns and preferences as visitors navigate through our sites, use our services or read email newsletters. In some cases, an agent or affiliate of ours collects such information on our behalf. Third party providers featured on or linked to by our site, such as vendors of products and services offered through our site, may be gathering the same kinds of information. If you link to another site, you should check its privacy policy for questions you may have. Email Newsletters. We may offer you the opportunity to subscribe to email newsletters on topics that we believe are of interest to our visitors. If you have opted to receive a particular newsletter, you may always unsubscribe later if you decide not to receive further mailings of the newsletter from us. See "Opting Out" below. Cookies. To help make our sites more responsive to the needs of our visitors, we use a standard feature of browser software, called a "cookie," to assign each visitor a unique, random number, a sort of "user ID" that resides on your computer. The cookie doesn't actually identify the visitor, just the computer that a visitor uses to access our site. Unless you voluntarily identify yourself (through registration, for example), we won't know who you are, even if we assign a cookie to your computer. The only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply. A cookie can't read unrelated data off your hard drive. Any advertisers or third parties that provide products or services through our site may also assign their own cookies to your browser. We use cookies to help us tailor our site to your needs, to deliver a better, more personalized service. For example, we use cookies to avoid showing you the same ad, repeatedly, during a single visit. In addition, we may use cookies to track the pages on our site visited by our users. We can build a better site if we know which pages our users are visiting and how often. Of course, you can set your browser not to accept (Cox Media, LLC (with respect to operations located in all states except Texas and Louisiana), Cox Southwest Holdings d/b/a Cox Media (with respect to operations in Texas), and Cox Communications Louisiana, LLC d/b/a Cox Media (with respect to operations in Louisiana) (collectively, "Cox Media").) cookies, but if you do, you may not be able to take advantage of the personalized features enjoyed by other visitors to our site. Other Methods of Collecting Information. Our web pages may contain electronic images (called "single-pixel GIFs" or "web beacons") that allow us and our vendors to count users who have visited particular pages or to access certain cookies. We may use these tools and other technologies to recognize which pages users visit, and which links they click on. These features may also be included in our email newsletters so that we can learn which messages have been opened and acted upon. We may also be able to verify your online purchases from us or from third party sites that have agreed to share such information with us. Browser Level Information and IP Addresses. Our web servers automatically collect limited information about your computer configuration when you visit our site, including the type of browser software you use, the operating system you're running, the resolution of your computer monitor, the website that referred you, and your IP address. Your IP address is a numerical address that is used by computers connected to the Internet to identify your computer so that data (such as the web pages you want to view) can be transmitted to you. We also use IP address information for systems administration and trouble shooting purposes. Your IP address does not tell us who you are. We use this information to deliver our web pages to you upon request, to tailor our site to the interests of our users, and to measure traffic within our site. DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION Advertisers. We will not share the personally-identifiable information you provide when registering on our site with any advertisers unless you give us your permission. We may, however, take the information you provide and aggregate it with data from all the other people that use this site and associated services. Then we will use that pool of information to inform our advertisers about our audience without identifying you personally. For example, we'll be able to say to an advertiser: "We have 3,470 readers in this ZIP code," which happens to be your location. Vendors and Service Providers. To make our sites more valuable to our visitors, we may offer some features in conjunction with other providers ("Provider Partners"). In some instances, our Provider Partners may have the same access to your information as we do. If that is the case, we will notify you at the time you provide your information. Their use of the information will be subject to the terms of their respective privacy policies, which you can find on their websites. Our Affiliates. We may share the information that we collect from you with any wholly or majority-owned subsidiary of Cox Enterprises, Inc. so that we and they can provide you with products and services provided by these entities that we believe may be of interest to you. Statistical Information. Much of the information we collect is in the form of aggregated statistics, such as the traffic that visits various pages within our sites, and the habits and preferences of our audience. Such aggregated information does not include any information that would identify you personally. We may use such aggregated information and disclose it to third parties as we see fit. Sites to Which We Link. Our site may have links to other websites and provide access to products and services offered by third parties, whose privacy policies we don't control. When you access another site or purchase products or services or conduct other transactions through our sites, use of any information you provide is governed by the privacy policy of the operator of the site you're visiting or the provider of such products or services. Other Disclosures. We may occasionally release information about our visitors when appropriate to comply with law, to enforce our Visitor Agreement, or to protect the rights, property or safety of visitors to our sites, the public, our customers, or our company and its employees, agents, partners and affiliates. As our business grows, we may buy or sell various assets. In the event that our company, or the bulk of our assets relating to this site, is acquired by another company, information on our visitors would be among the assets transferred. OPTING OUT If you have subscribed to an email newsletters, you will have the opportunity to unsubscribe from future mailings (for example, by clicking on an unsubscribe link in an email newsletter or by going back to our site). If you have submitted your information on a page provided in conjunction with one of our Provider Partners, the information you submit may be jointly maintained by us and the Provider Partner. If you decide to opt out on our site, you may also need to contact the Provider Partner separately to request the Provider Partner to remove your information from its database. STORAGE OF INFORMATION All information gathered on our site is stored within a database operated by us or by a contractor on our behalf. Sensitive information may be encrypted for storage. Encryption scrambles your credit card number and personal information. However, as effective as encryption technology is, no security system is impenetrable. We cannot guarantee the security of our database, nor can we guarantee that information you supply won't be intercepted while being transmitted to us over the Internet. Retention Policy. We may retain your information in our regular business records as long as someone is a customer or until no longer needed for business or legal purposes. Our security measures for this information are discussed below. ENFORCEMENT You have the right to enforce your legal privacy rights concerning our collection, use and sharing of your personally identifiable information. Among your remedies is the right to seek relief in a civil action filed under federal law. If you contract with us for services, you may also have rights under the terms of that agreement. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY A final note: The Web is an evolving medium. If we need to change our privacy policy at some point in the future, we will post the changes before they take effect. |
