Privacy
Statement for OTLSPORTS.COM
Your privacy on the Internet is
of the utmost importance to us. Because we gather certain types of information
about the users of OTLSPORTS.COM, we feel you should fully understand
the terms and conditions surrounding the capture and use of that information.
This privacy statement discloses what information we gather, how we use
it, and how to correct or change it.
Questions regarding this statement should be
directed to info@otlsports.com
1. Information OTLSPORTS.COM gathers and tracks:
Registration
Anyone who participates in interactive
activities (contest entry, store purchase, membership program) on Otlsports.com
may be asked to register for a free guest ID and password or to complete
subscription registration for a member ID and password. We use customer
contact information from this registration form to send the user information
about our company and promotional material from some of our partners.
Financial information that is collected is used to bill the user for products
and services. The customer's contact information is also used to contact
the visitor when necessary for customer service reasons. Users may opt-out
of receiving future mailings; see the choice/opt-out section below. Unique
identifiers, such as ID and passwords, are collected to verify the user's
identity and for use as account numbers in our record system.
Children Under the Age of 18
We do not currently collect any
personally identifiable information from children under the age of eighteen.
Under certain circumstances, visitors may be asked to submit a screen
name as a means of identifying communications to Otlsports.com. Children
of any age should always ask a parent for permission before sending personal
information to anyone online. If in the future, Otlsports.com collects
personally identifiable information from children, it will do so in compliance
with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (is U.S.C. 6501
et seq.)
IP Address
We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, and to administer our Web site. Your IP address is used to help identify you and your shopping cart.
Cookies
A cookie is a small data file that certain Web sites write to your hard drive when you visit them. A cookie file can contain information such as a user ID that the site uses to track the pages you've visited. But the only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. Generally, cookies work by assigning a unique number to the user that has no meaning outside the assigning site. A cookie can't read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. This random number lets us keep track of "how many" times customers are doing specific things - like visiting our site each month - without really knowing who those customers are. We also use cookies to keep track of your shopping cart and to make sure you don't see the same ad repeatedly. We use cookies to deliver content specific to your interests and to save your member ID. Additionally, after you've entered your member ID and password during a session on our service, we save that information so you don't have to re-enter it repeatedly during that session.
Users should be aware that Otlsports.com
cannot control the use of cookies or the resulting information by advertisers
or third parties hosting data for Otlsports.com. If a user does not want
information collected through the use of cookies, there is a simple procedure
in most browsers that allows the user to deny or accept the cookie feature;
however, users should note that cookies may be necessary to provide the
user with certain features (e.g., customized delivery of information)
available on the Otlsports.com website.
Order Forms
Otlsports.com uses an order form for customers to purchase products and services. If you place an order at a store hosted by Otlsports.com we will collect information from you, including your credit card and contact information. This information will be used by the merchant to bill the user for products and services. Contact information from the order form will also be used to ship orders, to contact a user for customer service related issues, and to send the user information about our company, and on occasion, promotional material from some of our partners. Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings; see the choice/opt-out section below.
Contests
We run contests on our site in which we ask visitors for a Otlsports.com ID and password. We use contact data from our contests to send users information about upcoming contests and promotional offers. On occasion we will email customers promotional material from some of our partners. The customer's contact information is also used to contact the visitor when necessary for winner notification and prize delivery confirmation. The majority of the contests that we offer are hosted on the Otlsports.com site; however, there may be cases in which a third party sponsor will host the contest and collect user information. In those cases, we urge users to review the privacy statement of the third party site. Users may opt-out of receiving future mailings; see the choice/opt-out section below.
Newsletter
We offer a free newsletter to share content information about our site with interested users. Users may cancel their free email subscriptions by following the simple instructions at the bottom of each newsletter or e-mail.
2. Use of Information
All of the information we collect, both what you tell us and what we collect through the use of cookies, is "aggregated" -- meaning that the information from many users is grouped together in a way that does not disclose the personal information of any particular user. We may use this aggregated information to evaluate which products and services are successful and which ones are not, and in order to evaluate which new services we should make available on our Web site. We may use only the anonymous click stream data to help our advertisers deliver better targeted advertisements. Otlsports.com will not disclose any information about any individual user except to comply with applicable law or valid legal process.
3. General Privacy Information
Otlsports.com contains links to partners, advertisers and third party Internet sites and services who may collect data in connection with sweepstakes, promotions, ecommerce, etc. They each have separate privacy and data collection practices, independent of Otlsports.com. Otlsports.com has no responsibility or liability for these independent policies or actions and is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such Web sites.
Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily and publicly disclose personal information on any online service or Web site - for example on message boards, through email, or in chat areas - that information can be collected and used by others. In short, if you post personal information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return. Furthermore, while we strive to protect your personal information, Otlsports.com cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so at your own risk. You are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your passwords and/or any account information. Please be careful and responsible whenever you're online.
Security
Otlsports.com utilizes a variety
of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information.
All user contact information is contained behind a "firewall" and only
accessible by a limited number of employees who have special access rights
to production systems. Passwords and credit card numbers are encrypted
in Otlsports.com's secure database which is also located behind a firewall.
All sensitive/credit information supplied by users is transmitted via
Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and then stored in Otlsports.com's
secured databases as stated above.
In the event a user wishes to modify
their personal information they may do so by visiting the member services
area. They will be required to submit a valid user ID and password for
authentication before they are able to modify their file. If a user has
forgotten his/her password or prefers to speak with a customer service
representative to modify their personal information, for the fastest response, email
Customer
Service . A user may also contact
customer service at (800) 618-5463. The user will be asked to provide
their name or user ID and then to verify certain non-sensitive information
(i.e. mother's maiden name) in order to proceed. Because password and
credit card information has been encrypted, it is completely invisible
to any employee who accesses it, including our customer service team.
If a user wishes to change their password, the customer service representative
will reset to a new one after the member has properly identified him/herself.
Every Otlsports.com employee is required to sign a policy which clearly outlines the company's policy with respect to security and defines the action the company will take with any employee who breaches the policy.
