ELECTRONIC PRODUCT REGISTRATION
When you buy and install a new product, we may ask you to register your
purchase electronically. When you do, we merge your registration information
with any information you've already left with us (we call that information your
personal profile). If you haven't previously registered with us, we create a
personal profile for you from your product registration information. If you
ever want to review or update that information, you can click on Update
Profile, and edit any of the Personal Information in your profile. If you haven't
already created a membership, we will ask you to do so. This ensures that only
you can access your information.
CUSTOMER OR MEMBERSHIP PROFILES
As mentioned above, every registered customer or member has a unique personal
profile. Each profile is assigned a unique personal identification username,
which helps us ensure that only you can access your profile.
When you register, you create your profile, your username and
password. It is your passport to seamless travel across your member area,
allowing you to download software and order more plug-in modules without having
to fill out registration forms with information you've already provided. Even
if you switch computers, you won't have to re-register - just use your
Registration ID to identify yourself.
WHAT WE DO WITH THE INFORMATION YOU SHARE
When you join us, you provide us with your contact information, including your
name and email address. We use this information to send you updates about your
order, questionnaires to measure your satisfaction with our service and
announcements about new and exciting services that we offer. When you order
from us, our 3rd party payment processors such as PayPal, Clickbank and 2checkout.com will ask for your credit card number
and billing address. They use this information only to bill you for the
product(s) you order at that time.
We occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services
on our behalf, including programming, answering Customer/Member questions about
products or services, sending email and processing event registration. We will
only provide those companies the information they need to deliver the service,
and they are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose.
CONFIDENTIALITY AND SECURITY OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Except as otherwise provided in this Privacy Policy, LouisaRecommends will
not share your personal information with any third parties without your
consent.
Work With One Heart will disclose your personal information, without notice,
only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action
is necessary to:
i. Conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process
served on Work With One Heart or the site;
ii. Protect and defend the rights or property of Work With One Heart and its
family of Websites;
iii. Enforce our Terms of Use Agreement [insert hyperlink here]; or
iv. Act under exigent circumstances to protect the safety of the public or
users of the Site.
If your information is lost or stolen, you must promptly notify us if your
credit card, user name, or password is lost, stolen, or used without
permission. In such an event, we will remove that credit card number, user
name, or password from your account and update our records accordingly.
The Site contains links to other websites. We are not responsible for the
privacy practices or the content of such websites. We also make email services,
bulletin board services, chat areas, news groups, forums, communities, personal
web pages, calendars, photo albums, file cabinets and/or other message or
communication facilities designed to enable User to communicate with others
(each a "Communication Service" and collectively "Communication
Services") available to you. Please understand that any information that
is disclosed in these areas becomes public information. We have no control over
its use and you should exercise caution when deciding to disclose your Personal
Information.
PERSONAL INFORMATION-WHY AND HOW "IP ADDRESSES"
ARE USED
An IP address is a basic element of the way the Internet functions. It is a
number that identifies your computer according to its IP address, and IP
numbers are assigned to web sites automatically. IP addresses may also be
identified in "header" information on emails. There may also be other
services and occasions when IP addresses will appear. Always look carefully at
what information may be displayed about you, including your IP address, and if
you are unsure or uncomfortable about the appearance of your IP address, do not
use that service.
In addition to being an important part of how computers communicate with each
other correctly, IP addresses can be used for other things, as well. In LouisaRecommends's case, IP addresses are collected for smooth operation in
administrating our Web Site system, for purposes of collecting the non-personal
"grouping" information for use by Work With One Heart and certain
third parties, as discussed above, and to generally monitor the use of www.LouisaRecommends.com.. IP addresses are exchanged
many times when you are surfing the web, so, for example, if you select a web
page or link within Work With One Heart, the IP address is recorded by the
server by which Work With One Heart's Web Site is connected to the internet.
For most purposes, your IP address will not be connected with personally
identifying information, only the fact of that access to a given place on our
web sites gets noted, but who you are individually will be anonymous, even to Work
With One Heart. However, as with certain information discussed in other
parts of this document, IP Address information will be used to help us identify
a person if LouisaRecommends, in good faith, believes it important for
ensuring proper compliance with our rules and policies, if it appears to be
necessary to comply with laws and to protect Work With One Heart, our members
and customers or other third parties.
PERSONAL INFORMATION-OPTING OUT
Work With One Heart, our affiliates or selected third parties may use personal
information you give Work With One Heart for marketing and promotions. You do
not have to let us use this information in that manner. This is called
"opting out," and it means you can tell us not to use your personal
information for these purposes:
i. Listing you in any Customer/Member directory,
ii. Receiving information from us about LouisaRecommends and our services
and products, or
iii. Receiving information from third parties selected by us because, for
example, your interests seem to match services or products they offer. To opt
out, contact contact@LouisaRecommends.com,
modify your personal information or cancel your Membership.
In addition, there may be specific opt-out processes available when you enter
certain areas of our Web Site, join groups, use services or when other
merchandise is offered. When you see such opt-out notices, read them for
information on how to opt out at that time. Also, some promotions may ask if
you'd like additional information. Choosing to ask for additional information
may require transfer of your email address, but if more personal information
than that is required, you will be notified prior to such information being
transmitted and may opt out by cancelling the request at that time.
OTHER IMPORTANT COMPANY PRIVACY ISSUES
A "Cookie" is a small file sent to and stored in your computer to
keep accurate records and customize certain services. In fact, it's become so
common that you can almost always expect cookies to be sent to your computer
from a wide variety of Internet sites.
For LouisaRecommends, cookies are designed to try to make your
visits more personal and helpful according to the ways you use our Web Sites.
They tell us the name that a Customer/Member uses at LouisaRecommends and
can tailor things like greetings, e-cards and so-forth to make your use of LouisaRecommends feels like you're right at home. They can also tell us, for
example, that you focus on particular types of information you need as a Customer/Member,
and the cookie may automatically see to it that when you log in you get a
message about some new feature in your areas of interest or about other
services that fit the way you use Work With One Heart. Also, sometimes when
messages are sent to certain Work With One Heart destinations, like
"customer service," a cookie may be used to help process your message
more efficiently and accurately.
However, cookies at LouisaRecommends are never used for storing
or accessing important personal information that you alone should control the
use of-like your password or your credit card number.
Even though cookies are usually thought to be helpful to web sites
and their users alike, not everybody wants them being put in their computer.
That's okay, but there are two things you need to know: if you don't have
cookies, not everything on your LouisaRecommends visits may be accessible,
as efficient or as personable; and, stopping cookies is something we can't do,
instead you have to do it in your own computer.
Stopping cookies shouldn't be difficult; however, because cookies
are so commonly used and welcomed today, most browsers are set to automatically
accept them. Even so, if you look through the settings in your browser, often
in "preferences," "setup" or "configuration," you
should be able to find a place where you can change the cookies setting, either
to tell your browser never to accept cookies, or to tell your browser to notify
you if a cookie is about to be sent and give you a chance to accept it or not.
In the latter case, you should know that cookies are often just numbered or use
some kind of computer term that will not be helpful for you to identify what
the cookie is actually for so that you can make a clear choice, but the option
is yours.
SPECIAL CONCERNS ABOUT HYPERLINKS
In this document, there are buttons or underlined words and phrases that you
can click on. You will find these all over our Web Site and nearly every other
web site you visit throughout the Internet, too. Some of them link to other
parts of the same web site, but others will send you to another site unrelated
to the web site you were at. This kind of link is called a hyperlink and could
send you to a web page a block away or on the other side of the world.
When we use hyperlinks at Work With One Heart, we try to make sure
they are updated and accurate links and that they are compatible with the kinds
of visitors we have. However, LouisaRecommends has no control over the
business, operations or representations of these hyperlinks to unrelated web
sites-and any hyperlinks included on them-and what the destination web pages
may contain. LouisaRecommends's Privacy Policy does not cover other such
destinations. You should always be careful at other web sites about how they
operate and how information is being used. They may have their own policies
that differ from LouisaRecommends's, they may send different kinds of
cookies and they may gather and use information in very different ways than LouisaRecommends.
We can take no responsibility or protect you on other web sites,
so always be careful-not just about things like opting out on advertising, but
also about safety and security. Once again, carefully protect personal
information about yourself, and be wary of who might get such information,
especially the public through chat-rooms, bulletin boards or by email. Not
being careful about this can be risky, and because LouisaRecommends can't
control these hyperlinked sites or users, and because our own policies and
rules don't apply, the risk is on you to decide how, and how not, to use them.
DO YOU ACCEPT OUR PRIVACY POLICY?
By using this Web Site, you are verifying that you agree to, and will abide by,
the terms of the LouisaRecommends Privacy Policy.
IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO DO SO, STOP VISITING OUR WEB SITES.
Second, check our privacy policy every once in a while. Certain
things may change over time, and we may include new information and privacy
policies that will be placed in this document. If you continue to visit Work
With One Heart after any such changes, you will again be verifying that you
agree to, and will abide by, the current privacy policy, as it then exists.
UPDATES AND CHANGES TO PRIVACY POLICY
We reserve the right, at any time and without notice, to add to, change,
update, or modify this Privacy Policy, simply by posting such change, update,
or modification on the Site and without any other notice to you. Any such
change, update, or modification will be effective immediately upon posting on
the Site.
QUESTIONS & COMMENTS?
Work With One Heart is always ready to review your questions and comments and
we will attempt to give you our best responses. Remember, we have a lot of
Customer/Member s and other visitors to respond to, as well, but we will try to
reply as promptly and thoroughly as possible. To contact Work With One Heart
about our privacy policy, send an email to contact@LouisaRecommends.com.
