ProInstincts is committed to protecting the privacy of your personal information on our web sites and developing technology that gives you the most powerful, safe, online experience.
This Privacy Statement applies to the ProInstincts website. By using ProInstincts, you consent to the data practices described in this statement. If you have questions about this Privacy Statement or the protection of your personal information by ProInstincts, please write us at support@ProInstincts.com.
1. COLLECTION OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
ProInstincts asks when it needs information that personally identifies you ("Personal Information") pertinent to the specific service you are choosing to use or subscribe to on ProInstincts. This information can include your e-mail address, name, address, telephone number, and credit card number, as applicable. ProInstincts also may ask for non-personal information or demographic information.
2. USE OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
ProInstincts uses your personal information to operate the ProInstincts web sites and to provide the services you have requested. The information is also used to communicate with you regarding your accounts by sending out periodic newsletters that are considered essential to the operation of the service. The non-personal information is used to compile general demographic statistics.
We use your e-mail address to respond to incoming service and support requests from you, to collect customer feedback, customer satisfaction surveys, and other service informational mailings.
We ask for your postal address because some of our services require a mailing address so that we can completely perform the service. We may also use this information for credit card validation.
ProInstincts may disclose your Personal Information if required to do so by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on ProInstincts; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of ProInstincts, the site or the customers of ProInstincts; (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety of customers of ProInstincts;
Personally identifiable information collected by ProInstincts may be stored and processed in the United States or any other country in which ProInstincts or its affiliates, subsidiaries or agents maintain facilities, and by using this site, you consent to any such transfer of information outside of your country.
3. SHARING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION WITH OTHER COMPANIES
Except as otherwise described in this statement, ProInstincts will share your personal information with other companies only with your consent. For example, when subscribing to a service which involves a third party to facilitate the service your personal information will be shared.
4. CONTROL OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
As part of your participation in any of the ProInstincts services, ProInstincts allows you to elect to receive certain information and e-mail from ProInstincts.
There is only one type of information sent to ProInstincts, customers: account specific information.
Account specific communications include information that is essential for the service to operate properly. This includes the initial welcome mail describing features and guides to a particular service. It also includes any communications describing any changes or updates to a particular service. Because account specific communications are essential to providing the customer with the most current information on ProInstincts services these types of communications will be sent to all ProInstincts customers when appropriate. These types of communications are considered an essential part of the service for which you have signed-up for and you will not be able to unsubscribe from such mailings.
5. CHANGES TO YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
You may update or edit the personal information you have shared with ProInstincts, at any time when you are on the ProInstincts Web site, from within your Control Panel.
If you have difficulty modifying any of your information, please click here or send an email to support@ProInstincts.com to receive further assistance.
6. SECURITY OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
ProInstincts secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure.
ProInstincts secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure.
When sensitive personal information (such as a credit card number and other financial information) is transmitted over the Internet, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
7. USE OF COOKIES
To make it easy and convenient for you to login to our services, the ProInstincts site does require you to enable cookies to utilize our services. Because we use cookies, you can bookmark your ProInstincts page and access your account without logging in.
A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Web server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same ProInstincts Web site, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the features that you customized.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you will not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the ProInstincts web site.
8. USE OF PRIVACY STATEMENTS BY ProInstincts's PARTNERS AND AFFILIATES
ProInstincts services complying with these principles, you should carefully examine the privacy statements of sites linking to or from ProInstincts.
Personal information that you choose to provide to other web sites will be subject to the privacy policies of that specific web site.
9. USE OF THIRD PARTY AD NETWORKS
The majority of the online banner advertisements you see on the ProInstincts web sites are displayed by ProInstincts. In addition, ProInstincts also allows other companies, called third-party ad servers or ad networks, to display advertisements on ProInstincts web sites. To do this, ad networks place a persistent cookie on your computer. Doing this allows the ad network to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement. In this way, ad networks may compile information about where you, or others who are using your computer, saw their advertisements and determine which ads are clicked on. This information allows an ad network to deliver advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. ProInstincts does not have access to or control of the cookies that may be placed by the third-party ad servers or ad networks.
10. CHANGES TO THIS STATEMENT
ProInstincts will occasionally update this Privacy Statement to reflect company and customer feedback.
When ProInstincts posts changes to this Statement, we will also revise the "last updated" date at the top of the Privacy Statement.
If there are material changes to this Statement, ProInstincts will notify you by placing prominent notice.
ProInstincts encourages you to periodically review this Statement to be informed of how we are protecting your information.
