1.1 Specific Sites
and Services. Some of the sites
described here are affiliated with Golden-Orb. Many of these have their own
privacy statements that describe the specific data collection and use
practices of the particular product, service, or site. We encourage you to
review the privacy statements for those sites, services and products that
you use.
1.2 Types and Uses of
Personal Information If you use this
service, personally identifiable information about you may be collected
and processed by us. In general, we only collect such information (such as
your name, address, phone number, e-mail address, and type of business)
when you knowingly provide it to us. Additionally, we may automatically
collect or process personally identifiable data (such as your Internet
domain or IP address) as part of the operation of this service or during
the course of your activities on or use of this service. In nearly all
cases this data may be collected or processed by, and transferred to, our
facilities in Australia. By using this service (which resides in part on
systems located in Australia), you unambiguously consent to any
collection, processing, transfer or use of any personal data. If you do
not consent to any collection, processing, transfer or use of such
information, please discontinue use of this service.
1.3 How Personal Information Is Shared
With Third-Parties
Without the user’s
consent, we will not sell, trade, or disclose the user’s personally
identifiable information to third parties that want to market products to
the user. However, we may disclose information to third parties assisting
us in carrying out a transaction or providing a service for you (e.g.,
packaging, sending and delivering purchases and information to you,
clearing credit card transactions, or performing statistical analyses of
our services), or in connection with merger and acquisition discussions.
Additionally, we may disclose information when required by subpoena,
search warrant, or other legal process, or in response to activities that
are unlawful or a violation of our rules for use of the service, or to
protect and defend our rights or property.
1.4 Security Measures We have implemented
appropriate technological and operational security processes to protect
your personally identifiable information from loss, misuse, alteration or
unintentional destruction. While no security measure can guarantee against
compromise, we generally believe our security is reasonable and
appropriate for sites such at this.
1.5 Modifications to
Statement
We reserve the right to change, modify, or update this
statement at any time without notice. We indicate the date of the current
statement below, so you know when it was last updated.
1.6 Access and Accuracy
We want to maintain only accurate information
about users of the site. You can request individual information that has
been gathered about you by contacting us. Upon receipt of appropriate
identification information, we will provide you with access to the
personally identifiable information that we maintain about your use of
this service or which you have supplied to us via this service. If you
find factual inaccuracies, please notify us so that they may be
corrected.
1.7 Data
Retention We will not retain your
personal information longer than is necessary for the purpose it was
collected.
1.8 Children
We take children’s privacy seriously, and ask children
under the age of 13 not to send any personally identifiable information to
our services without the consent of their parents or guardians. We
encourage all parents and guardians to instruct their children in the safe
and responsible use of personal information on the Internet. We will not
knowingly collect, use, or disclose to third parties any personal
information collected from children, and we are committed to complying
with applicable laws and requirements.
1.9 Linked Services We provide links to third party sites. Since we do not
control these sites, we encourage you to review the privacy statement
posted on these (and all) third party sites. We are not responsible for
the privacy statements or practices of sites and services controlled by
other companies or organizations.
1.10 Use of Cookies We may use “cookies” in
connection with operation of this service. Cookies are small pieces of
information that are stored on your computer by the Golden Orb
Technologies service server. Cookies are used for record-keeping
purposes—the stored information can be retrieved by the service server
when you return to the service. This allows is to personalize or regulate
the use of the site, and also permits us to automate the access and
data-entry functions of the site (e.g., login information), to store
on-line ordering information for purchases you may make while visiting the
site, and to tailor the appearance or presentation of the site to your
preferences or interests. In general, we do not use cookies to track the
navigational habits of identified users without the user’s consent. If you
visit our sites to read or download content, much of the information we do
collect is statistical only (e.g., the domain from which you access the
Internet, the date and time you access our site, and the Internet address
of the service from which you linked directly to our site) and not
personally identifiable. We use this information about the number of
visitors and their use of the sites in aggregate form to make our site
more useful and attractive to you. The use of cookies described here is
quite common. Cookies will not be used to pass any information from your
computer except the specific information placed into the cookie from this
service. You may wish to adjust your Web browser to inform you whenever a
cookie is to be used, or to reject all cookies automatically. However, if
you elect not to accept cookies, some parts of the service may not
function properly or permit access. For more information on cookies, see
