Children
In an effort to do our part to protect the privacy of children using the Internet, as well as in compliance with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA), it is CapeCod.com’s policy to refrain from the collection, use or disclosure of personal information from children under the age of thirteen.
Cookies
This Site may use “cookies” to track users traffic patterns. A cookie is an element of data that a web site can send to your browser, which may then store it on your system. A cookie file can contain information such as a user ID that a site uses to track the pages you’ve visited, but the only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie cannot read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. Cookies are used to assist you in reaching the appropriate information and make your visit tailored to your individual preferences. For example, CapeCod.com uses cookies to serve relevant ads to you. You hereby consent to access by Sandab Communication’s cookies to your hard drive and to Sandab Communication’s use of cookies and associated data. You hereby grant Sandab Communications the right to use the data associated with cookies in any manner.
IP Address
IP addresses may be used to administer the site, to analyze trends, track users’ webpage movements, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses will not be linked to personal information.
Use of Information
Sandab Communications may use the information it obtains relating to you, including your IP address, name, mailing address, email address and use of the Web Site, for its internal business and marketing purposes and may disclose non-identifiable information to third parties, such as advertisers, for such purposes.
We do not and will not distribute any personal identifiable information or contact information about you to other companies unless:
- We have your consent to share the information;
- We need to share your information to provide a product or service you have requested;
- We respond to subpoenas, court orders or legal process; or
- We find that your actions on CapeCod.com violates our Terms of Use.
Sandab Communications is committed to respecting the privacy of your personal information. However, the Internet is not a secure medium of communication. Subsequently, we cannot guarantee the privacy of any information you input on this web site or send to us via the Internet. We will not be responsible for any damages suffered as a result of the loss of any such information. All messages sent to or from this web site can be accessed by other Internet users. To protect your privacy, do not use e-mail or forms to send us sensitive information.
Third Party Links
This site contains links to other sites. CapeCod.com is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such Web sites.
Website Collection, Use, and Disclosure of Personal Information
Generally, you may browse this Site without providing any Personal Information. For certain activities (such as contest and sweepstakes registrations, and surveys, etc) the Personal Information you voluntarily provide may include your first/middle and last name, home address, business address, email address, telephone number, birth date, gender, employer or personal preferences, depending on the activity.
Unless stated otherwise, we do not request contact information for a mobile phone, text messaging or any wireless device that includes a domain name address (such as “.net” or “.com”) as part of the contact information. Federal law prohibits the sending of commercial email messages directly to a wireless device that uses a domain name, unless you have first given your affirmative consent. We may inadvertently collect a wireless device number that includes a domain name when you send us an inquiry or register for a contest or membership club. However, we will not knowingly use that contact information for sending commercial email. We reserve the right to respond to user inquiries or requests sent via a wireless device that uses a domain name as such messages are not deemed to be commercial email and therefore, are not regulated by Federal law. However, when “computer to phone” commercial emails are prohibited by law, we may reject your wireless device contact information when such information is submitted for certain Site features or services. We will attempt to notify you if we will need new contact information.
For specific purposes (such as the purchase of goods and services) we may request a type of confidential personally identifiable information which shall be called “Sensitive Personal Information” and is defined as any individual’s: (1) social security number; (2) driver’s license number or state identification card number; or (3) account number, credit or debit card number, in combination with any required security code, access code or password that would permit access to an individual’s financial account. This Sensitive Personal Information will only be used to implement the specific activity or event it was submitted for. We will not share your Sensitive Personal Information with Advertisers.
However, more general Personal Information will be used to implement the specific activity or event and will also be used for the marketing of additional events, services and merchandising for this Site.
