- What personally-identifiable information is collected from you through the Website, how that information is used and with whom it will be shared;
- What choices are available to you regarding the use of your data;
- The security procedures in place to protect the misuse of your information; and
- How you can correct any inaccuracies in the information.
Information and Use of Information Collected.
We may store information you submit to or through the Website. We use the information to provide user support, communicate with you, improve Website quality and functionality, display advertising deemed relevant to you, backup computer systems operating the Website and comply with legal obligations. We may also collect non-personally-identifiable information about you in a number of ways, including tracking your activities through your IP address, computer setting or most recently visited URL. We may also ask you to provide some non-personally-identifiable information about yourself, such as your age, household income and buying preferences. We do not collect any personally-identifiable information about you unless you voluntarily submit such information to us by, for example, establishing an account or filling out a survey to submit other text, content, ratings, reviews, messages, data, images and other information to the Website (“User Content”).
The types of information that may be so requested include your name, address, zip code, company or other affiliation, telephone number and e-mail address as well as information necessary to process payments to us in connection with our services, should such payments be required. This information is requested for our business and other related purposes and, in general, is used only for the purpose for which such information was provided. We may also use your voluntarily-submitted information to deliver to you other information about our company and promotional material from some of our partners, or for purposes of trend analysis, pattern detection and site administration.
Your information may also be used to contact you when necessary and may be shared with other companies that may want to contact you with offers consistent with your stated preferences as we may gather from time to time. Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings from us and other entities by following the instructions set forth in the opt-out section below or as may otherwise be incorporated into specified pages of the Website or other email communications to users. Non-personal demographic and profile data may be used by us to tailor your experience on the Website, showing you content in which you might be interested. This information may also be shared with advertisers on an aggregate non-personal basis. From time to time, we may also use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, and to administer the Website.
Use of Cookies.
When you view our Website we might store some information on your computer. This information will be in the form of a “cookie” or similar file. Cookies are small pieces of information stored on your hard drive, not on our Website. Cookies are not used by us to spy on you or otherwise to invade your privacy, but are intended to help you navigate our Website as easily as possible. Further, we may use cookies to deliver content specific to your interests and to prevent you from having to reenter all your registration data at each time you connect to our Website.
We may, from time to time, use an outside advertisement server company to display ads on our site. These ads may also contain cookies. The advertisement server company may collect cookies received with outside banner ads. We do not have access to information that would confirm the use of cookies by the advertisement server company.
Information Corrections; Updates.
When you provide any personally-identifying information to us, you affirm that you are knowingly and voluntarily providing us the information. If you wish to change or update your personal information, you should resubmit such information at the Website. However, to the extent such information is also stored on other databases, we cannot always guarantee that such corrections or deletions will reach all such other databases, although we will take commercially-reasonable efforts to ensure that your information is removed from, or corrected in, our records.
Security.
We take precautions to protect your information. When you submit sensitive information via the Website, your information is protected both online and offline.
Wherever we collect sensitive information from you, that information is encrypted and transmitted to us in a secure way. You can verify this by looking for a closed lock icon at the bottom of your web browser, or looking for “https” at the beginning of the address of the web page.
Our Website has industry standard security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alternation of the information under our control, and we will take commercially-reasonable steps to insure the safety of your personal information. Please note, however, that, as no data transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of the information that you may choose to transmit.
Please BE AWARE of phishing emails from scammers pretending to work for or with Nanny Authority. We take information security very seriously and ask that you also be vigilant in order to prevent fraud and to help protect our common interests. Here are a few precautions to take:
• Nanny Authority will never send an unsolicited request for personal information or request applicants to provide personal banking information to us via e-mail or pop-up windows.
• Confirm the sender’s identity before replying to email requests and before opening attachments or clicking on links, even if they appear to come from a legitimate source. Any weblink related to Nanny Authority will always show as a Secure and Trusted site!
• Call us at 973-466-2669 to validate communications originating from Nanny Authority.
