Other Sites' Policies
DatingPPC.com has no control over, nor does
it bear any of the responsibility for
the privacy policies and/or content of
any sites or advertisers linked to or
on our site. DatingPPC.com also takes no
responsibility for the cookies these sites
or advertisers might deposit on your hard
drive.
Safety and Security
Security
After we receive the data at DatingPPC.com,
it is stored on a secure server behind a
firewall and cannot be accessed from outside
the company. All data is secure and is protected
from alteration, loss or misuse. The DatingPPC.com
employees who process your order are the
only people with access to your personal
information. All DatingPPC.com employees sign
a privacy/security policy agreement, which
provides legal confidentiality protections
for all DatingPPC.com Users. Any violation
of this policy results in disciplinary action,
including possible termination, criminal
prosecution, and civil action.
When our registration/order form asks Users
to enter sensitive information (such as
credit card number), the information you
provide is encrypted and is protected with
the best encryption software in the industry
- SSL. While on a secure page, such as our
order form, you will know that you are on
a secure page because the lock icon on the
bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape
Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer
is in its locked form, as opposed to un-locked,
or open, when you are just 'surfing'. We
use a credit card processing company to
bill users for goods and services. This
company does not retain, share, store or
use personally identifiable information
for any secondary purposes.
While we use SSL encryption to protect
sensitive information online, protect all
user-information off-line. For example,
all of our users' information, not just
the sensitive information mentioned above,
is subject to restricted use in our offices.
Only employees who need the information
to perform a specific job (for example,
our billing clerk or a customer service
representative) are granted access to personally
identifiable information. Our employees
must use password-protected screen-savers
when they leave their desk. When they return,
they must re-enter their password to re-gain
access to your information. Furthermore,
ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our
security and privacy practices. Every quarter,
as well as any time new policies are added,
our employees are notified and/or reminded
about the importance we place on privacy,
and what they can do to ensure our customers'
information is protected. Finally, the servers
that we store personally identifiable information
on are kept in a secure environment, behind
a locked cage.
