Privacy Philosophy
The Pallmann Group LLP., producer of The Pallmann Group software and The Pallmann Group web sites, believes that online privacy is crucial for the
ongoing success of the Internet as a service, commercial and entertainment
medium. We collect personal information from you primarily to make
using The Pallmann Group services easier and more satisfying. In registering
for certain services offered by The Pallmann Group you may be asked to provide
your name, e-mail address, zip code, gender and information about
what you do and don't like. We request this information from you
so that we can provide you with the personalized service necessary
to meet The Pallmann Group' goal of humanizing the Internet. However, unless
you designate otherwise, the personally identifiable information
you provide will be known only to you and to The Pallmann Group. We will
always ask you before providing this information to anyone else.
If others want this information, including your name or your email
address, we will provide it only if you give us permission to do
so.
From time to time, The Pallmann Group may introduce new products and services
to its users. To the extent these new products and services affect
this policy, this policy will be updated and you will be informed
of these updates and any privacy conditions related to these services.
What information does The Pallmann Group
gather/track and how is it used?
Information gathered online can generally be categorized as either
anonymous or personally identifiable. Anonymous information is information
that cannot be traced back to a specific individual. For example,
The Pallmann Group knows how many questions are asked each day at each of
its web sites but does not know the names, e-mail addresses or gender
of the people asking the questions.
Personally identifiable information is information you provide
that lets us know specific facts about you so that we can customize
the information The Pallmann Group delivers to you accordingly. This information
can include your name, address, zip code, age, etc. It is our belief that you will find it beneficial
to provide us with personal information so that your experience
with The Pallmann Group is more satisfying.
Gathering and Use of Anonymous Information
Each time a visitor comes to an The Pallmann Group web site, we collect
some information to improve the overall quality of the online experience,
including product monitoring, product improvement, and targeted
advertising. At The Pallmann Group web sites, we collect the visitor's
domain name (e.g. whether the user is logged on from compaq.com
or whitehouse.gov), referral data (e.g., we record the address of
the last URL a user visited prior to clicking through to a The
Pallmann Group web site), and browser and platform type (e.g., a Netscape
browser on a Macintosh platform).
In addition to collecting these types of information, The Pallmann Group
collects aggregate queries for internal reporting and targeted advertising.
We also count, track, and aggregate the visitor's activity into
our analysis of general traffic flows at our sites (e.g. tracking
where traffic comes from, how traffic flows within The Pallmann Group
properties, etc.). To these ends, we may merge information about
you into group data, which may then be shared on an aggregated basis
with our advertisers; but The Pallmann Group will not disclose your individual
identity or personal data without your permission. When The Pallmann Group
does present aggregated information to outside companies, no one
will be able to identify or contact you.
Use Of The Pallmann Group Cookies
The Pallmann Group' web sites use cookies to track traffic flow and patterns
of travel within and through the sites. Cookies are a standard Internet
technology that allow us to both store and retrieve login information
on a user's system. Our web server automatically asks a new user
whether his or her browser will agree to accept an The Pallmann Group cookie
file. If a visitor accepts, our web server will identify the user's
cookie for The Pallmann Group' use in internal reporting. If a user accepts
an The Pallmann Group cookie, but would later like to remove it from his
or her computer, he or she can just remove it from the browser.
With whom does The Pallmann Group share the
information it gathers/tracks?
Demographic Information
When we do present information to our advertisers, it is in the
form of grouped statistics compiled from our users' answers to survey
questions and on-site behavior. The Pallmann Group will not disclose the
contact or demographic information of any individual user to advertisers
or any other outside organization without the express permission
of the individual.
User Research
On occasion, The Pallmann Group will make available to potential advertisers
and research firms aggregated results from research it has conducted
on its user base. Once again, The Pallmann Group will only provide such
demographic information on an aggregated basis and does not disclose
individual member profiles without user consent.
Special Policy With Regards to Information from Children Under
Thirteen
In accordance with the Federal Children's Online Privacy Protection
Act of 1998 (COPPA), The Pallmann Group will never knowingly request personally
identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13 without
parental consent. When we do receive information (with parental
consent) from users under the age of 13, we will never voluntarily
share their personally identifiable information with third parties,
regardless of their stated preference given at registration.
