Privacy on P.C.C. - An Overview
P.C.C. is strongly committed to protecting the privacy of consumers of its
interactive products and services. Throughout cyberspace, we want to
contribute to providing a safe and secure environment for consumers.
The purpose of this P.C.C. privacy policy is to inform you, as a
welcome visitor to P.C.C., what kinds of information we may gather about
you when you visit P.C.C., how we may use that information, whether we
disclose it to anyone, and the choices you have regarding our use of, and
your ability to correct, the information. This privacy policy applies to
the P.C.C. site and other Internet-accessible P.C.C. services that
incorporate this policy
Information About All P.C.C. Visitors
In general, our site automatically gathers certain usage information like
the numbers and frequency of visitors to P.C.C. and its areas, very much
like television ratings that tell the networks how many people tuned in to
a program. We only use such data in the aggregate. This aggregate data
helps us determine how much our customers use parts of the site, so we can
improve our site to assure that it is as appealing as we can make it for
as many of you as possible. For example, P.C.C. uses a technology
nicknamed "cookies" that tells us how and when pages in our site
are visited, and by how many people. These cookies do not collect
personally identifiable information and we do not combine information
collected through these cookies with other personally identifiable
information to tell us who you are or even what your screen name or e-mail
address is. We also may provide statistical "ratings"
information, never information about you personally, to our P.C.C.
partners about how our members, collectively, use P.C.C.. We do this so
they too can understand how much people use their areas and our site in
order for them to provide you with the best possible Web experience as
well. Finally, P.C.C., its advertisers and ad servers may also use
cookies, as well as small pieces of code called "web beacons" or
"clear gifs," to determine on an anonymous basis which
advertisements and promotions users have seen and how users responded to
them, but do not use these technologies to collect personally identifiable
information unless you give us permission to do so.
Disclosure
We do not use or disclose information about your individual visits to
P.C.C. or information that you may give us on P.C.C., such as your name,
address, email address or telephone number, to any outside companies.
P.C.C. may share such information in response to legal process, such as a
court order or subpoena, or in special cases such as a physical threat to
you or others. And, as we mention above, we may share with our Web site
partners aggregated statistical "ratings" information about the
use of P.C.C..
P.C.C. Privacy Policy Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy for P.C.C., we will post those
changes here so that you will always know what information we gather, how
we might use that information and whether we will disclose it to anyone.
