Privacy Policy
Your privacy is very important to us. Accordingly, we have developed this Privacy Policy in order for you to understand how we collect, use, communicate, and disclose and make use of personal information that you provide to us on the CB Site.
- Before or at the time of collecting personal information, we will let you know why the information is being collected. Depending on the purpose, we may ask for your name, mailing address, e-mail address, and fax or telephone numbers. We may maintain this information in our computer system. All personally identifiable information you provide to us is on a completely voluntary basis.
- We will collect and use your personal information only for those purposes specified by us when the information is collected. For example, in order to respond to a question, or provide an online subscription, we will need your e-mail address. We may share this information with vendors who provide services to us, such as hosting services and tech support. We will only retain personal information as long as necessary for the fulfillment of those purposes. We will not sell or rent your personal information.
- When you participate in an online forum or blog, we ask for a name so that other people reading a string of comments will be able to determine which comments come from the same person. You may prefer to provide a nickname or alias, so that your identity is not disclosed. You should be aware that personal information, such as your name or e-mail address, that you voluntarily disclose on forums or in blogs could be collected and disclosed by other users with access to those sites. We cannot take any responsibility for such collection or disclosure. If you choose to participate anonymously, please remember that you are still legally liable for the material you post, including claims of libel, invasion of privacy, and copyright infringement.
- We may use "cookies"—small pieces of information sent to your computer from a website and stored in a designated file on your computer—to recognize you as a previous or registered user of this website. Cookies also permit us to learn about how users use this site, and can help us improve it. While most web browsers automatically accept cookies, you can usually modify your browser to decline cookies if you prefer. This may prevent you from taking full advantage of the CB Site.
- We are committed to ensuring that the information you provide is secure, and have put into place reasonable security safeguards against loss or theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use or modification. No website or e-mail transmission, though, can be guaranteed to be fully secure.
- When you link to another website from the CB Site, you will leave the CB Site, and we have no control over the site that you've entered. Our privacy policy applies only to this site, and you should review carefully the privacy policies of any other sites before providing personal information.
- The effective date of this policy is September 8, 2009. Since our policy may change periodically, without notice to you, please check back here from time to time to review our current Privacy Policy.
