Candy Dynamics’ Internet Privacy Policy
Candy Dynamics respects the privacy of every individual who visits our web
site and we are strongly committed to protecting their personal information.
We understand the importance of maintaining and using customer information
responsibly. Please read this Privacy Policy for an explanation of how we
collect, use and safeguard the personal information you provide to us on the
web site. This policy may change from time to time, so please check back
periodically. Candy Dynamics does not sell products or services for purchase
by children. We sell products for purchase by adults. Therefore, Candy
Dynamics does not solicit or knowingly collect any personally identifiable
information from children under the age of 18, unless they have entered an
online sweepstakes/contest or have joined the online member area called
“Club House”; please note that any member of the Club House section of the
website must be 13 years or older to be a member.
Information Automatically Collected About Our Visitors
As a visitor to Candy Dynamics’ web site, you are anonymous to the company.
Like many other commercial web sites, Candy Dynamics may use a standard
technology called a “cookie” that measures the number of visitors to the
different sections of the web site. Cookies are designed, generally, to
collect and store the name of the domain from which you access the Internet,
the date and time you access Candy Dynamics’ site, and the Internet address
of the web site from which you linked directly to Candy Dynamics’ site.
Candy Dynamics uses the information collected by cookies to improve its site
and make it more useful to visitors. Candy Dynamics’ cookies do not collect
personal information.
If your prefer not to receive cookies on this site, you can set your browser
to warn you before accepting cookies and refuse the cookie when your browser
alerts you to its presence. You can also refuse all cookies by turning them
off in your browser (see the “Help” portion of your browser). You do not
need to have cookies turned on to use any area of this site. However,
cookies allow you to take full advantage of the services provided by our
site, and we recommend that you leave them turned on.
Information Collected
We only collect personally identifiable data, such as names, addresses,
e-mail addresses, preference information, when visitors voluntarily choose
to submit personal information to enter contests, submit a comment, or to
place an order.
How is the information used?
Providing personal information is up to you, our visitor. We collect
personally identifiable information to enter you in contests and notify you
of results.
Personal information is used solely by our affiliates (agents or business
partners who help make this site) and us in order to respond to your
requests. This information is used for different tasks such as fulfilling
online shopping orders, and is used to better serve you, consistently with
this policy.
Personal information is used solely by our affiliates (agents or business
partners who help make this site) and us in order to respond to your
requests. This information is used for different tasks such as fulfilling
online shopping orders or offering a promotion, and is used to better serve
you, consistently with this policy.
Is credit card/transaction information secure?
We understand that financial information is especially sensitive and that
you may have concerns about sharing personal information with us. We believe
you should control the amount of information we receive about you.
We use state-of-the-art technology to protect your data from unauthorized
third parties within our shopping cart. Currently, Candy Dynamics uses
Secure Socket Layer (SSL) within its shopping cart to protect your data and
secure your transactions. SSL encrypts all your personal information,
including your credit card number, name and address as it is transmitted
over the Internet.
Sharing of Your Personal Information
Candy Dynamics does not sell or otherwise share any customer information
with marketers outside Candy Dynamics who may want to offer you their own
products and services. However, Candy Dynamics may give such information to
other companies or individuals to perform functions on our behalf. These
companies or individuals may include: Fulfillment Centers, Credit Card
Companies, Web Designers, and Shipping Companies.
Agents
We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our
behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders, delivering packages, sending
postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists,
analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card
payments, and providing customer service. They have access to personal
information needed to perform their functions, but are not permitted to use
it for other purposes.
Business Transfers
As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy assets. In such
transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred
business assets. Also, in the unlikely event that Candy Dynamics and/or
substantially all of its assets are acquired by another business, customer
information will be one of the transferred assets.
Protection of Candy Dynamics and Others
We release account and other personal information when we believe release is
appropriate to comply with law; enforce or apply related agreements; or
protect the rights, property, or safety of Candy Dynamics, our users, or
others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and
organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
How can I choose not to provide information to Candy Dynamics?
At any time, you can opt out of receiving communications from us, or having
your personal data used for any purpose unrelated to the purpose for which
the information was provided to us. You can make the decision to opt out
during the registration process or separately at the point on our site where
we request information from you. The help portion of the toolbar on most
browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new
cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie,
or how to disable cookies altogether. However, you may not be able to use
certain features on our site if you do not use cookies. The Federal Trade
Commission provides useful information about online privacy on its own web
site. You may wish to visit that site.
Children’s Privacy Policy
Candy Dynamics recognizes the importance of safeguarding the privacy of
children on the Internet. As such, we have developed the following policy
for the online collection, use, and disclosure of personal information from
children under the age of 13. We recommend that parents explore our Site
with their children and that they remind them to seek parental consent
before submitting any contests entry forms to Candy Dynamics.
Non-Personal Information, Personal Information & Browsing the Site
Children can surf our site, view content, and play games without providing
any personal information such as name or email addresses. The only section
within our website where we collect and store personal information is within
the member section entitled “Club House”. Within this section we do not
allow children under the age of 13 to become members; as such, we require
the person registering for this section to check off that they are 13 years
or older. Again, we highly advise parents to monitor children under the age
of 13 while on this site to ensure that they are not signing up for this
section under false pretense.
Parental Access/Control
If you are a parent that has given us permission to collect and store your
child’s information (via completion of Parental Consent Forms for online
sweepstakes/contests), you can do the following at any time:
1. Discontinue further use of your child’s personal information (i.e.
unsubscribe). To do so, please contact us at (888) 400-7606 and ask to speak
with the Website Department.
2. Request that we delete your child’s personal information by following
procedure #1 above. Unsubscribing your child will delete his/her personally
identifiable information from our records.
Any changes to this Children’s Privacy Policy will be posted here and
material changes will generally apply only to activities and information
collected on a going forward basis. |
