Modelsandall.co.za strives to offer its visitors the many advantages of
Internet technology and to provide an interactive and personalized
experience. We may use Personally Identifiable Information (your name,
e-mail address, street address, telephone number) subject to the terms of
this privacy policy. We will never sell, barter, or rent your email address
to any unauthorized third party. Period."
How we
gather information from users
How we
collect and store information depends on the page you are visiting, the
activities in which you elect to participate and the services provided. For
example, you may be asked to provide information when you register for
access to certain portions of our site or request certain features, such as
newsletters or when you make a purchase. You may provide information when
you participate in sweepstakes and contests, message boards and chat rooms,
and other interactive areas of our site.
Like
most Web sites, modelsandall.co.za also collects information automatically
and through the use of electronic tools that may be transparent to our
visitors. For example, we may log the name of your Internet Service Provider
or use cookie technology to recognize you and hold information from your
visit. Among other things, the cookie may store your user name and password,
sparing you from having to re-enter that information each time you visit, or
may control the number of times you encounter a particular advertisement
while visiting our site.
As we
adopt additional technology, we may also gather information through other
means. In certain cases, you can choose not to provide us with information,
for example by setting your browser to refuse to accept cookies, but if you
do you may be unable to access certain portions of the site or may be asked
to re-enter your user name and password, and we may not be able to customize
the site’s features according to your preferences.
What we
do with the information we collect
Like
other Web publishers, we collect information to enhance your visit and
deliver more individualized content and advertising. We respect your privacy
and do not share your information with anyone.
Aggregated Information (information that does not personally identify you)
may be used in many ways. For example, we may combine information about your
usage patterns with similar information obtained from other users to help
enhance our site and services (e.g., to learn which pages are visited most
or what features are most attractive). Aggregated Information may
occasionally be shared with our advertisers and business partners. Again,
this information does not include any Personally Identifiable Information
about you or allow anyone to identify you individually.
We may
use Personally Identifiable Information collected on Modelsandall.co.za to
communicate with you about your registration and customization preferences;
our Terms of Service and privacy policy; services and products offered by
Modelsandall.co.za and other topics we think you might find of interest.
Personally Identifiable Information collected by Modelsandall.co.za may also
be used for other purposes, including but not limited to site
administration, troubleshooting, processing of e-commerce transactions,
administration of sweepstakes and contests, and other communications with
you. Certain third parties who provide technical support for the operation
of our site (our Web hosting service for example) may access such
information. We will use your information only as permitted by law.
In
addition, from time to time as we continue to develop our business, we may
sell, buy, merge or partner with other companies or businesses. In such
transactions, user information may be among the transferred assets. We may
also disclose your information in response to a court order, at other times
when we believe we are reasonably required to do so by law, in connection
with the collection of amounts you may owe to us, and/or to law enforcement
authorities whenever we deem it appropriate or necessary. Please note we may
not provide you with notice prior to disclosure in such cases.
Affiliated sites, linked sites and advertisements
Modelsandall.co.za expects its partners, advertisers and affiliates to
respect the privacy of our users. Be aware, however, that third parties,
including our partners, advertisers, affiliates and other content providers
accessible through our site, may have their own privacy and data collection
policies and practices. For example, during your visit to our site you may
link to, or view as part of a frame on a Modelsandall.co.za page, certain
content that is actually created or hosted by a third party.
Also,
through Modelsandall.co.za you may be introduced to, or be able to access,
information, Web sites, features, contests or sweepstakes offered by other
parties. Modelsandall.co.za is not responsible for the actions or policies
of such third parties. You should check the applicable privacy policies of
those third parties when providing information on a feature or page operated
by a third party.
While on
our site, our advertisers, promotional partners or other third parties may
use cookies or other technology to attempt to identify some of your
preferences or retrieve information about you. For example, some of our
advertising is served by third parties and may include cookies that enable
the advertiser to determine whether you have seen a particular advertisement
before.
Other
features available on our site may offer services operated by third parties
and may use cookies or other technology to gather information.
Modelsandall.co.za does not control the use of this technology by third
parties or the resulting information, and is not responsible for any actions
or policies of such third parties.
You
should also be aware that if you voluntarily disclose Personally
Identifiable Information on message boards or in chat areas, that
information can be viewed publicly and can be collected and used by third
parties without our knowledge and may result in unsolicited messages from
other individuals or third parties. Such activities are beyond the control
of Modelsandall.co.za and this policy.
Children’s Privacy
We do
not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of
13. If we learn that we have personal information on a child under the age
of 13, we will delete that information from our systems. Modelsandall.co.za
encourages parents to go online with their kids. Here are a few tips to help
make a child's online experience safer:
-
Teach kids never
to give personal information, unless supervised by a parent or
responsible adult. Includes name, address, phone, school, etc.
-
Know the sites
your kids are visiting and which sites are appropriate.
-
Look for Web site
privacy policies. Know how your child's information is treated.
