INTRODUCTION
Landmark on Main Street, Inc. (also herein referred to as “LOM”) is strongly committed to protecting the privacy of its guests, customers, members, donors, and friends. We believe that maintaining privacy on the Web and in our communications is very important, and that informing our web site visitors about the types of information we collect and how we use it is crucial.
TYPES OF INFORMATION COLLECTED
LOM does not collect any personal information about individuals-such as names and postal or e-mail addresses-except when such information is knowingly provided to LOM. Personal information might be obtained from transactions such as purchases, subscriptions, registrations, or membership pledges. Additionally, personal information may be transmitted as part of a form submission or in connection with other activities, services, or resources made available on our web site. Further, personal information may be provided in written, in-person or telephone communications. Any personal identification information obtained by the LOM must be voluntarily submitted by the user.
LOM’s Web site does collect some anonymous “non-personally identifiable” aggregate information about visitors automatically when pages on our Web site are requested through a browser. This information may be used for statistical purposes and to help us monitor how guests navigate our site, allowing us to tailor our services for the majority of visitors. Non-personally identifiable information may refer to information about our visitors’ browsers (e.g., Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer), operating systems (e.g., Windows or Macintosh), Internet Service Providers (e.g., AOL or Optimum Online) and other similar information.
LOM’s Web site collects IP addresses as a component of the non-personally identifiable aggregate information. An IP address is a number assigned to your computer by a Web server when you’re on the Internet. This information is used only for non-user-specific purposes such as determining how many users visited a specific area of our site. Such information could, if necessary, be used to identify a user in order to comply with safety and/or security issues or with legal requirements.
HOW INFORMATION IS USED
Any personal information provided to LOM is maintained and accessible only by LOM unless LOM explicitly states otherwise.
The following are examples of how we might use the personal information it collects:
If you made a purchase via telephone or mail-order, the required personal information will be used to complete your order.
If you indicated that you were interested in receiving LOM news and information, you might receive mail or e-mails that we feel may be of interest to you.
The following is an example of how we may use the non-personally identifiable information it collects on our website:
Aggregate data could be analyzed to describe the collective characteristics and behaviors of online visitors and subsequently be used to further optimize the effectiveness of our site.
WITH WHOM INFORMATION IS SHARED
Landmark On Main Street will never intentionally disclose any personal information about you as an individual (such as your name, street address, telephone number, credit card number, or e-mail address) to any third party without having received your prior permission.
SECURITY
LOM protects all personal and non-personally identifiable information that it receives via the Internet against unauthorized access.
COOKIES
A cookie is a small text file that is sent to your browser from a Web site and stored on your computer’s hard drive. Cookies can’t read data from your hard disk or read cookie files that were created by other sites-the Web site that creates a cookie is the only one a browser will permit to access it.
Examples of ways in which LOM might use cookies would be to control access to certain user features, to customize content areas, or to analyze site activity and user behavior. LOM also reserves the right to use cookies in the future in conjunction with new content or extended functionality.
If you are concerned about the use of cookies, we suggest that you explore your browser’s options to notify you whenever a cookie is set, or to disallow cookies altogether. Users should be aware, however, that prohibiting the use of cookies may restrict the user’s access to certain types of content or features.
LINKS TO OTHER SITES
Users may find content on our Web site that links to the sites and services of our partners, sponsors, performers or other third parties. In many cases, these links represent cooperative projects or are established with persons or entities that have a significant connection to or relationship with our site. Although every effort is made to ensure that any referrals are to reputable and relevant sources, the LOM does not control the content or links that appear on these sites. In addition, these sites or services, including their content and links, may be constantly changing. These sites and services may have their own privacy policies and customer service policies, or no policy at all. Landmark On Main Street maintains a policy against the non-consensual collection or sharing of personal information and encourages visitor’s to review the privacy policies of any sites they visit to insure their personal information is being protected.
PROMOTIONAL E-MAIL AND NEWSLETTER POLICY
We may use any personal identification information you submit for LOM marketing and promotional purposes. For example, on occasion we may wish to send e-mails, newsletters or other mailings to inform you of new performances or other events. You will not receive such communications unless you have willingly provided the personal information required.
POLICY CHANGES
Occasional changes may be made to this document as new services and content are added to our site or to reflect changes in the LOM’s policies. Visitors to LOM’s Web site are encouraged to check this document periodically to stay informed of current LOM privacy guidelines.
