Purpose of the Privacy Policy.

 

My Laptop Is A College is committed to respecting the privacy rights of its customers, visitors, and other users of the Company web site at www.mylaptopisacollege.com. We created this Privacy Policy to give you notice of how your private information will be used as a result of submitting it to us. This Policy is only applicable to the Web Site, including any sub-domains, and not to any other web sites that you may be able to access from the Web Site, each of which may have data collection and use practices and policies that differ materially from this Privacy Policy. When you register at My Laptop Is A College, the Personally Identifiable Information you provide to us is used to provide the services you have registered for, to deliver email notifications to you, and from time to time, to validate your identity. Our data collection policies allow you to choose how much information you provide to us, and to control how we use that Personally Identifiable Information as set forth below. To find out more, please read on.

 

The purpose of this Policy is to describe the information collection, use, and dissemination practices of the owners of My Laptop Is A College, its parent, PMA Media Group and its subsidiaries and registered d/b/a companies (collectively referred to hereinafter as 'Company' or 'we' or 'us') and all related web sites owned or registered to Company and applies to Company's collection, use, storage and disclosure of information by Company on its (a) web sites, including all its divisions, subsidiaries and related companies (collectively, the 'Web Site'), (b) on various Third Party web sites, and (c) to Company's other information collection, including the acquisition of customer information from third parties.

NOTICE CONCERNING CHILDREN. We are a general audience site, and do not direct any of our content specifically at children under 13 years of age. We understand and are committed to respecting the sensitive nature of children's privacy online. If we learn or have reason to suspect that a Site user is under age 13, we will promptly delete any personal information in that user's account.

 

Information Collection, Use, and Dissemination practices.

 

Depending on the service you are accessing, you could be asked at various times to provide information such as your name, email address, contact phone number or other information related to of the services you are seeking. We request this information to deliver on the services you are requesting, and to allow us to provide our strongest value to you - a personalized online experience. Information collected online is often defined as being either anonymous or personally identifiable:

 

Anonymous Information refers to information that cannot be tied back to a specific individual. For instance, we may know that thousands of people have visited this Privacy Policy web page, but we do not necessarily know their names, where they live, or their date of birth. What we collect from visits such as this constitutes anonymous information. Some of the individuals who access our services decline to use the personalization features that are available to them, and therefore those individuals are anonymous to us and the only data we collect about them is anonymous information.

Personally Identifiable Information refers to information that tells us specifically who you are, such as your name, email address or phone number. While you can search and browse some sections of our web site without being a registered user, certain activities do require registration. Registering with My Laptop Is A College using the web form will also cause a cookie to be issued; this cookie allows the Company to 'recognize' you when you are on our site to allow us to personalize our service for you.

 

Anonymous Information

 

As is true of most web sites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files. This information includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data.

 

We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to analyze trends, to administer the site, to track user’s movements around the site and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole.

 

We may link this automatically-collected data to certain Personally Identifiable Information. We may use third-party tracking services that use cookies to track non-personally identifiable information about visitors to our site in the aggregate.

 

Personally Identifiable Information

 

In order to use the basic features of this Web Site, you must register and provide certain personal information. During registration you are required to give contact information (such as your name, email address, mailing address, social security number, driver’s license and credit card information, and telephone or cell phone number). You may also provide us with information that, when combined with Personally Identifiable Information, provides us with a better idea of who you are, including but not limited to your gender, birthday, marital status, and education level. We use this information to connect you with the providers of services in which you have expressed interest. Depending on the services you have chosen to use, some or all of your Personally Identifiable Information may be used by My Laptop Is A College to provide such services. Personally Identifiable Information may also be provided to intermediaries and third parties (including affiliates and partners) who assist My Laptop Is A College in providing you with the service upon your request. For example, if you register and desire to get education information, your personally identifiable information may be provided to one or more prospective schools. Except as otherwise provided in this Privacy Policy, however, My Laptop Is A College will not rent or sell your Personally Identifiable Information to third parties without your permission.

Cookies, Web Beacons, and Other Information Collected Using Technology. Company currently uses cookie and web beacon technology to associate certain Internet-related information about you with information about you in its database. Additionally, Company may use other new and evolving sources of information in the future.

 

(a) Cookies. 'Cookies' are a feature on your browser software. If enabled, we may write cookies that may store small amounts of data on your computer about your visit to any of the pages of this Web Site. Cookies assist us in tracking which of our features appeal the most to you and what content you may have viewed on past visits. When you visit this site again, cookies can enable us to customize our content according to your preferences. We may use cookies to: keep track of the number of return visits to this Web Site; accumulate and report aggregate, statistical information on web site usage; deliver specific content to you based on your interests or past viewing history; save your password for ease of access to our Web Site. You can disable cookies, although the Web Site may not function properly for you.

In order to use all of the features and functionality of Company's Web Site, you need to accept cookies. Notwithstanding any other provision in this policy, in visiting this site, a third-party advertiser (or its partners) may place or recognize a unique cookie on your browser. These cookies enable more customized ads, content or services to be provided to you. To trigger these cookies, we may pass an encrypted or 'hashed' (non-human readable) identifier corresponding to your email address to a Web advertising partner, who may place a cookie on your computer. No personally identifiable information is on, or is connected to, these cookies. To opt-out of these cookies, please go to http://www.privacychoice.org/companies or http://www.aboutads.info/choices.

 

(b) Web Beacons. A web beacon is a programming code that can be used to display an image on a web page, but can also be used to transfer your unique user identification to a database and associate you with previously acquired information about an individual in a database. This allows Company to track certain web sites you visit. Web beacons are used to track online behavioral habits for marketing purposes to determine products or services you may be interested in. In addition to using web beacons on web pages, Company also uses web beacons in email messages sent to individuals listed in Company's database.

 

(c) IP Addresses. Company automatically tracks certain information based upon your behavior on the site. We may use this information to do internal research on our users' demographics, interests, and behavior to better understand, protect and serve you and our community. This information may include the URL that you just came from (whether this URL is on the Web Site or not), which URL you next go to (whether this URL is on the Web Site or not), your computer browser information, and your IP address. Your Internet Protocol ('IP') is a unique Internet 'address' which is assigned to you by your Internet Service Provider ('ISP'). For local area network ('LAN'), DSL, or cable modem users, an IP address may be permanently assigned to a particular computer. IP addresses are automatically logged by web servers, collecting information about a user's traffic patterns. While the IP address does not identify an individual by name, it may, with the cooperation of the ISP, be used to locate and identify an individual using the Web. Your IP address can, however, reveal what geographic area you are connecting from, or which ISP you are using. Finally, other web sites you visit have IP addresses, and we may collect the IP addresses of those web sites and their pages.

 

(d) Computer Profiles. Company may also collect and accumulate other anonymous data which will help us understand and analyze the Internet experience of our visitors. For instance, Company may accumulate visitor data relating to referring domain names, the type of browsers used, operating system software, screen resolutions, color capabilities, browser plug-ins, language settings, cookie preferences, search engine keywords and JavaScript enablement. When you provide us with Personal Identification Information, we are able to use such visitor data to identify you.

 

(e) Data Analysis. Data Analysis technology may be employed from time to time if used by a Client of Company.

 

(f) New Technology. The use of technology on the Internet, including cookies and web beacons, is rapidly developing. As a result, Company strongly encourages individuals to revisit this policy for any updates regarding its use of new technology.

 

No Information Collected from Children. Company will never knowingly collect any personal information about children under the age of 18. If Company obtains actual knowledge that it has collected personal information about a child under the age of 18, that information will be immediately deleted from its database. Because it does not collect such information, Company has no such information to use or to disclose to third parties. Company has designed this policy in order to comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ('COPPA').

 

Credit Card or Bank Information. Company may, in certain instances, collect credit card numbers or banking numbers and related information when an individual places an order from Company. When the credit card information or banking information is submitted to Company, such information is encrypted and is protected with SSL encryption software. Company will use the credit card or banking information for purposes of processing and completing the requested transaction, and the information will be disclosed to third parties only as necessary to complete the purchase transaction.

 

Use of Individual Information.

 

General Use. The following paragraphs describe how Company currently uses Personally Identifiable Information, but Company may change or broaden its use at any time. As noted below, Company may update this policy from time to time. Company may use Personally Identifiable Information to provide promotional offers to individuals by means of email advertising, telephone marketing, direct mail marketing, online banner advertising, and package stuffers, among other possible uses.

 

Email and Unsubscribe Policy. Company uses Personally Identifiable Information to provide other businesses promotional offers by email to individuals. Company may maintain separate email lists for different purposes. If email recipients wish to end their email subscription from a particular list, they need to follow the instructions at the end of each email message to unsubscribe from the particular list. To unsubscribe from all Company's email lists, please use our unsubscribe link.

 

Company's unsubscribe process impacts only the future delivery of electronic mailings disseminated by Company on its own behalf. You may still receive electronic mailings sent on behalf of Third Parties and your personal information may still be shared with Third Parties for use in offline marketing and data appends, including email appends.

You should also note that unsubscribing from Company's electronic mailings will not automatically unsubscribe the subscriber's information from any Third Party business associates and licensees of the data. Since Third Party associates and licensee partners maintain separate databases from Company, and you will need to unsubscribe from each source individually, if desired. This allows you the freedom to pick and choose which subscriptions to maintain and which to discontinue.

 

Content of Email Messages. In certain commercial email messages sent by Company, an Advertiser's name will appear in the 'From:' line but hitting the 'Reply' button will cause a reply email to be sent to Company. The 'Subject:' line of Company email messages will usually contain a line provided from the Advertiser to Company.

Solicited Email. Company only sends email to individuals who have agreed on the Web Site to receive email from Company or to individuals who have agreed on a Third Party web site to receive email from Third Parties. As such, Company does not send unsolicited email messages.

When an individual is using the Internet, Company uses other information to associate an individual with that person's Personally Identifiable Information, and Company attempts to show advertising for products and services in which the person has expressed an interest in the Surveys, and otherwise. Company may, at its discretion, target advertising by using email, direct mail, telephones, cell phones, and other means of communication to provide promotional offers.
