As the success of The Spider Online is dependent
on building and maintaining goodwill with our customers, we
are committed to implementing measures designed to protect
the privacy of those visiting our website. The Spider Online
respects the privacy of those who visit our website, however,
we do collect information from our visitors.
This Privacy Policy governs your interaction
with The Spider Online websites, and your registration for
and use of any The Spider Online online service. Except as
set forth within this Privacy Policy and other published guidelines,
we do not release personally identifiable information about
our members and visitors without their permission.
Please note that The Spider Online reviews
its privacy practices from time to time, and that those practices
are, therefore, subject to change. We ask that you bookmark
and periodically review this page to ensure continuing familiarity
with the most current version of our Privacy Policy. To contact
The Spider Online about privacy issues, to report a violation
of our Privacy Policy or to raise any other issue, please
e-mail us at webmaster@thespideronline.com.
The Information We Gather
The Spider Online gathers two types of information
about users:
-
Non-personally Identifiable
Information: When visitors come to our web site,
we collect and aggregate information indicating, among
other things, which pages of the web site were visited,
the order in which they were visited and which hyperlinks
were “clicked.” Collecting such information
involves the logging of the IP addresses, operating system
and browser software used by each visitor to The Spider
Online web site. Although such information is not personally
identifiable, we can determine from an IP address a visitor’s
Internet Service Provider (ISP) and the geographic location
of his or her point of connectivity.
We may also use a technology called "cookies"
to help improve the contents of the site. A cookie is
a small data file transferred by a web site to your computer's
hard drive. The cookies used on our web site do not allow
access to users' personal information, but the cookies
may be used to identify individual computers. You have
the ability to accept or decline cookies by modifying
the settings of your Web browser.
-
Personally Identifiable Information:
In certain areas of The Spider Online web site –
for example, when registering to receive product updates
– we require that you provide us with personally
identifiable information (including, for example, first
name, surname, organization, email address, telephone,
topics of interest and other information).
How We Use (And Do Not Use) The
Information We Gather
Please take some time to familiarize yourself with the different
ways The Spider Online uses the information that it gathers.
Keep in mind that, while The Spider Online encourages all
third parties involved – including but not limited to
its affiliates and advertisers – to adhere to our policies
regarding the privacy of our registered and unregistered visitors
to otherwise handle personal information in a responsible
manner, we cannot and do not assume any responsibility for
any actions or omissions of third parties, including the manner
in which they use information received either from The Spider
Online or independently. Nevertheless, in the event that you
encounter any third party associated with, or who claims association
with, The Spider Online who you feel is improperly collecting
or using information about you, please contact webmaster@TheSpiderOnline.com.;
we will be happy to forward your message to the third party.
-
Non-personally Identifiable
Information: The Spider Online uses non-personally
identifiable information in aggregate form to measure
demographics and interests regarding specific areas of
The Spider Online web site. We may provide statistical
information based on this data to affiliates and other
current and potential business partners.
The Spider Online web site contains
links to other Internet web sites, including co-branded
or other affiliated sites which may or may not be owned
or operated by The Spider Online. Unless otherwise explicitly
stated, we are not responsible for the privacy practices
or the content of such web sites, including such sites’
use of any information (such as IP address, browser type
or operating system) collected when visitors to The Spider
Online web site click through links to those sites. Even
though such information might not identify you personally,
we strongly encourage you to become familiar with the
privacy practices of those sites.
-
Personally Identifiable Information:
The Spider Online provides notice to potential
The Spider Online registrants that personally identifiable
information will be collected during the registration
process. Such notice is provided simultaneously with your
The Spider Online registration; moreover, this Privacy
Policy itself serves as notice that such information is
collected under those circumstances. Although you may
not “opt out” of the registration process
if you wish to register, you may choose to “opt
out” of receiving promotional materials from The
Spider Online and/or its affiliates, advertisers or other
business partners.
The Spider Online limits its own e-mail solicitations to
those customers who have not “opted out” of
receiving such communications. The solicitations are limited
in that they, among other things, will clearly indicate
the originator of the e-mail and provide the customer with
a method of “opting out” of receiving future
communications of a similar nature.
We reserve the right to release information contained
within our access logs concerning any visitor when that
visitor is in violation of our published guidelines, or
partakes (or is reasonably suspected of partaking) in any
illegal activity, even without a subpoena, warrant or other
court order, and to release such information in response
to court and governmental orders, civil subpoenas, discovery
requests and as otherwise required by law. We cooperate
with law enforcement agencies in identifying those who may
be using our servers or services for illegal activities.
We also reserve the right to report any suspected illegal
activity to law enforcement individuals or entities for
investigation or prosecution.
Changing or Deleting Personal Information; Business
Transfers
If you would like to have your personally identifiable
information removed from The Spider Online database, please
contact us at webmaster@TheSpiderOnline.com., and we will
use reasonable efforts to comply with your request. Keep
in mind, however, that there will be residual information
that will remain within The Spider Online databases, access
logs and other records, which may or may not contain such
personally identifiable information. The residual information
will not be used for commercial purposes; however, The Spider
Online reserves the right, from time to time, to recontact
former customers or users of The Spider Online.
In addition, we may sell or transfer assets or portions
of our business as we continue to improve our product and
service offerings. In such transactions, user or visitor
information (whether non-personally identifiable or personally
identifiable) may constitute one of the transferred business
assets.
Commercial email policy
In addition, The Spider Online neither authorizes nor
condones the harvesting of email addresses from this or
any other site.
