- Distant
Star and its member sites are
commited to protecting the personal privacy rights of all our customers and
consider all personal information as private and confidential. Distant Star has created this privacy statement in order
to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy. To make this notice easy to find,
we make it available on our homepage and every other page of our website. The
following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for
all of our current and future member web sites.
Information
Collected
We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our
server, and to administer our Web site. We use cookies to save your password so
you don't have to re-enter it each time you visit our site. In addition, our web
servers track information about the visits to our web sites. For example, we
compile general statistics that show the daily number of visitors to our sites,
which pages our visitors spend the most time on, the daily requests we receive
for particular files on our web sites, and what countries those requests come
from. These aggregated statistics are used internally to better provide services
to the public and may also be shared with our affiliate sites and our
advertisers, but again, the statistics contain no personal information and
cannot be used to gather such information.
-
- Our site's registration forms require users to give us contact
information (like their name and email address), and demographic information
(like their zip code, age group, or income level). The customer's contact
information is also used to contact the visitor when necessary or when
requested. We do not share your personal information with our advertisers;
however we may contact you with promotional information on their behalf when
appropriate. Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings from us.
-
- Our online surveys ask visitors for contact information (like
their email address). We use contact data from our surveys to send the user
information about our company and promotional material from our affiliates and
advertisers. The customer's contact information is also used to contact the
visitor when necessary. Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings from us.
We run contests on our sites in which we ask visitors for contact information
(like their email address). We use contact data from our contests to send users
information about our company and its affiliates and promotional material from
some of our advertisers. The customer's contact information is also used to
contact the visitor when necessary. Users may opt-out of receiving future
mailings from us. We will not disclose customer name, addresses, or account
information to unaffiliated parties, other than:
- where the customer requests or consents to disclosure
- where we are legally required to do so (e.g. in response to a subpoena or
fraud investigation)
- where we have agreed to provide information under negotiated contracts
- where the customer has been informed about the possibility of sharing
information for marketing or other similar purposes through a prior direct
communication and the customer has been given the reasonable opportunity and
time to decline.
Third Party Advertising
We advertise for
third party companies on our websites. These companies do NOT have access to
your personal information (your name, address, email address or telephone
number, etc.).
Other Sites
Some of our sites contain links to
other sites. Distant Star is not responsible for the
privacy practices or the content of such Web sites.
Public Forums
Some of our pages may have chat rooms, forums, message boards, and/or news
groups available to our users. These features require users to register with the
site, and enter their personal user names and passwords before entering those
areas.
Please remember that any information that is disclosed in these
areas becomes public information and you should exercise caution when deciding
to disclose your personal information in a public forum, message board, chat
room and/or news group.
Security
To prevent unauthorized
access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the appropriate use of information,
we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures
to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.
Correct/Update
If you
need to change or modify any information previously provided to us, please
contact us and we will take reasonable steps to verify your identity before
granting access or making corrections.
