:::: Privacy Policy ::::
[NOTE: PLEASE SEE SECTION II OF THIS POLICY FOR
A DESCRIPTION OF HOW WE DEAL WITH INFORMATION COLLECTED FROM CHILDREN
UNDER THE AGE OF 13.]
I. This notice is to inform you about the policies
for collection and use of personally identifiable information
on the PropertyRulz.com site. Sites which are linked to our site
may have different policies; please review the privacy policy
notices on those sites for details.
We do not collect personally identifiable information
about you on this site without your knowledge, and all such information
is collected directly from you. For example, we may ask you to
provide your e-mail address, name, mailing address, or other information
about yourself in order to participate in contests, chat rooms,
or on bulletin boards, to be added to the list to receive e-mail
updates on particular artists or types of music, to send so-called
"postcards" or to conduct transactions at The Store or elsewhere
on the site. You are not required to provide us with this information,
but if you choose not to, you may not be able to participate in
some of the activities on this site. We donot use cookies on this
site but our advertisers, sponsors, and tracking counters may.
We use the information we collect from you to allow
you to participate in the site activities for which the information
is collected. For example, when you give us your e-mail address
in order to receive updates on a particular artist or type of
music, that address is added to the e-mail list for that artist
or type of music. On each e-mail you receive, you are given the
opportunity to unsubscribe; when you unsubscribe, we remove your
e-mail address permanently from that mailing list.
For contests conducted on this site, we use the
personal information you provide only for the purpose of contacting
you if you win a prize and sending the prize to you. We do not
use contact information contained in contest entries to create
mailing lists or for any other purpose. For further information
about how we handle entries to a particular contest, please consult
the contest rules.
We do not share personal information provided by
site visitors with anyone outside PropertyRulz.com, except to
the extent necessary to allow you to participate in site activities
(for example, to send you a prize that you have won in a contest
on the site). In particular, we do not rent or sell mailing lists
of site visitors to any third party.
We try to keep the information we collect from you
as current as possible, and we take steps to maintain the security
of your personal information and to prevent unauthorized access
to it by those who do not have a legitimate need for it. We will
never post your e-mail address or other identifying information
you have provided on our site without your consent.
II. INFORMATION PRACTICES WITH REGARD TO CHILDREN
If you are under 13 years of age, you should not
provide any personally identifiable information on this site without
the knowledge and permission of your parent or guardian. If we
learn that you are under 13 years of age, we will not maintain
or use any personally identifiable information about you without
the verifiable consent of your parent or guardian, except as allowed
by law. This may mean that you will be unable to participate in
some activities on the site without that verifiable consent.
We collect personally identifiable information directly
from visitors on this site who may be under the age of 13. We
do not collect this information without the knowledge of the visitor.
Our activities on this site are carried out in compliance
with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998. Under
that Act, we may not ask a child to provide more personal information
than is reasonably necessary in order to participate in an activity
on this site. We comply with this requirement, and any personally
identifiable information collected from a visitor on this site
is used only for the purpose of enabling the visitor's participation
in activities on this site.
For example, we ask visitors who wish to be placed
on a specific mailing list for a newsletter to provide an e-mail
address. This information is used to send the visitor the newsletter
requested. We also ask visitors who wish to receive a free promotional
item (such as a CD, t-shirt, etc.) to provide name, mailing address,
and e-mail address. The name and mailing address are used to send
the visitor the promotional item. The e-mail address is used only
if we need to contact the visitor to verify name and mailing address.
We do not retain this information after the item has been delivered,
and we do not use it for any other purpose.
For contests that are held on this site, we ask
each contestant to provide year of birth, as well as name, address,
and e-mail address. If the year provided indicates that the contestant
may not be at least 13 years old, the information submitted is
deleted. Information submitted in order to participate in a contest
is not used for any other purpose. Please refer to the specific
age requirements for each contest as rules may vary from contest
to contest.
We ask each visitor who wishes to participate in
chat rooms and bulletin boards on this site to provide an e-mail
address along with the visitor's screen name. Each visitor who
wishes to send a so-called "postcard" is asked to provide the
visitor's screen name and e-mail address, the recipient's name
and e-mail address, and a message selected by the visitor. All
such e-mail addresses are used only to protect the security and
integrity of the site, such as to take action against visitors
who post inappropriate material or harass other visitors.
Some of the activities on our site (e.g., certain
chat rooms and bulletin boards), require participants to be 13
years of age or older. When you sign up for any of these activities,
we will ask you to enter your date of birth. This information
will not be used, stored, or published for any purposes other
than to ensure the compliance of such age restrictions with respect
to those age restricted activities.
In some circumstances, we also ask visitors to this
site to provide us with contact information on their parent or
guardian. We use this information only for the purpose of contacting
the parent or guardian to notify them of our information practices
with respect to children, to notify that person of a child's participation
on this site, and/or to seek the consent of the parent or guardian
to such participation.
The parent or guardian of any person under the age
of 13 whose personal information we have collected on this site
may ask to review that personal information, to have it deleted,
and to forbid further collection of the information. For more
information on how to do this, please contact the contact person
listed below.
No personal information collected on this site is
shared with third parties other than a parent or guardian of a
site visitor, except that information may be shared with those
with whom we contract to carry out the internal operations of
the site (for example, to send you a promotional item that you
have requested on the site.). These contractors have agreed with
us to use personal information of site visitors only for the purposes
of carrying out these operations. In particular, we do not rent
or sell mailing lists of site visitors to any third party.
If you have questions concerning this policy please
feel free to contact us through our site.
This policy may change as our site develops and
grows, so please re-visit this page as often as you wish.
