Our Commitment to Privacy
Our Privacy Policy was developed as an extension of our commitment to
combine quality products and services with integrity in dealing with our users.
The Policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we collect, use and
safeguard the personal information you provide to us and to assist you in
making informed decisions when using our site and our products and services.
What Information Do We Collect?
When you visit our site you may provide us with two types of
information: personal information you actively choose to disclose ("Active
Information") and use information collected, in a way not visible to you,
on an aggregate anonymous basis as you and others browse our site ("Passive
Information").
1. Personally Identifiable Information
This refers to information that lets us know who you are or things
specifically about you.
Registration
When you register to become an authorized reseller of Zonital
International products, we will collect Personally Identifiable Information
(such as name, address, email address, and telephone number). This Personally
Identifiable Information is securely stored and may be accessed on our website.
You are assigned an identification number and select your own password – both
are needed to enter the Site and to access your Contact Information.
Ordering
When you place an order for products or services, we collect Personally
Identifiable Information (such as name, contact and billing information, credit
card, and other transaction information). We use this information to deliver
your order, process payment, and to communicate with you about the status of
your order.
Credit Card Storage
Credit card information collected at registration or for product orders
is used only to process payment for the transaction and, generally, is not
retained on our Site. You may, however, voluntarily elect to securely store up
to four personal credit cards to be used for product orders.
Surveys and Promotions
From time to time you may voluntarily provide Personally Identifiable
Information to complete surveys and questionnaires or to participate in user
polls. We use this information to improve our products and services and to
ensure that we're providing accurate disclosures. We may also use your
Personally Identifiable Information to provide you newsletters and other
marketing information that coincide with your preferences. You may customize
your marketing preferences, or let us know if you do not wish to receive any
promotional materials, by adjusting your Subscriptions & Email options on
the Site.
2. Aggregate Information
This refers to information that does not, by itself, identify you as a
specific individual. Such information would include the Uniform Resource
Locator ("URL") of the website that referred you to our Site, your
Internet Protocol ("IP") address (a number automatically assigned to
your computer whenever you surf the web), your operating system and browser
type, and any search terms that you enter on our Site. Our web server
aggregates this information in order to monitor the level of activity on our
Site, evaluate its effectiveness, and improve the content of our Site in order
to make your visit an easy and enjoyable experience.
We may collect, compile, store, publish, promote, report, or otherwise disclose or use any Aggregate Information, provided that such information does not personally identify you. We do not correlate any Personally Identifiable Information with the Aggregate Information that we collect on our Site. If we do correlate any Aggregate Information to you, it will be protected like any other Personally Identifiable Information under this Privacy Statement.
No Use of Our Site by Persons Under 13
No person under 13 should disclose information on this site. You may learn more about protecting children’s privacy online by visiting www.ftc.gov/kidzprivacy.
Active Information You Choose to Provide
In order to gain use of the site (become a “user”), we require you to disclose the following information:
- Name
- Address
- Phone Number
We use secure socket layer (SSL) encryption to protect the transmission of the information you submit to us when you use our secure online forms. The information you provide to us is stored securely.
Passive Information Collected
What is a Cookie?
Cookies are a feature of web browser (Internet Explorer, Netscape
Navigator, etc.) software that allows web servers to recognize the computer
used to access a site. They are small pieces of data that are stored by a
user’s web browser on one site to simplify subsequent interactions with that
site by the same user or to use the information to streamline the user’s
transaction on related web pages. This makes it easier for a user to move from
site to site and to complete transactions over the Internet. Cookies should
make your online experience easier and more personalized.
Our site utilizes cookies to collect information about how our site is used. Passive Information gathered may include the date and time of visits, the site pages viewed, time spent at our site, the sites visited just before and just after our site. If you do not wish to transmit "cookie" information about yourself, you may turn off the cookie function in your web browser; please consult the "Help" section of your browser to correctly do so.
Our site’s servers also automatically identify your computer by its Internet Protocol address which is a unique string of numbers that is assigned to your computer by your Internet Service Provider. Your IP address may be used to address problems with our server or administer our site or to gather broad demographic information about our users. We passively collect your IP Address.
How Do We Use the Information Collected?
Broadly speaking, persons we employ directly, or as contractors or
agents at our direction, use Active Information for purposes of administering
our business activities, providing customer services such as support, and
making available other products or services we think may be of interest to our
users. We may use the Active Information or Passive Information you provide to
us to contact you about changes to our site, new services, features or products
we offer, or other information we think you shall find valuable. If at any time
you do not wish to receive such information, you may “opt-out” of doing so by
sending an email to us at: unsubscribe [at] zonitalinternational [dot] com.
We use Passive Information to gather information about our users and to enhance and design our site to make it easier, faster and friendlier to use. Additionally, cookies help us know information about how many people visit our site, when they visit and how they use our service. Passive Information may result in your viewing of particular advertising based on your user habits for your viewing on our site and a shopping experience customized to you in content, services and goods.
Your Information In Relation to Others We Link To
You may be able to access other websites through our site. When you do
so you are doing so subject to their policies regarding privacy and data
collection and you should read those sites’ privacy policies to make sure you
agree to them before using such sites. When you choose to shop at such sites,
you should read their privacy policies to make sure you agree to them before
making purchases.
Sharing Information with Advertisers or Other Third Parties
We may disclose anonymous information about user habits, characteristics
and user patterns, based on aggregate user statistics to advertisers on our
site. The parties who perform services for us (credit card processors, merchant
bank, our Internet Service Provider) may also have access to your information
in performing such services. Should we buy or sell assets of our company,
another company may need to review our company’s assets, including your
information, to make business decisions as to whether to acquire such assets.
Sharing Information with the Government or As Otherwise Required by Law
We may be required by subpoena, law or government agency to disclose
both Active and Passive Information you have provided to us.
How Do We Secure Active Information and Passive Information?
We secure your personal information submitted by you by using reasonable
efforts to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, or accidental loss or
destruction of Active Information and Passive Information. Your postings on
this site and other communications you may have with us via email or snailmail
may not be secure unless we advise you that security measures are in place
prior to your sending information. Therefore, if you choose to communicate with
us through these means, you are assuming the risk of doing so and we request
that you do not send or post sensitive information through these means.
Accessing and Correcting Your Information
We take reasonable measures to ensure that any Personally Identifiable
Information we collect on our Site is accurate, current, complete, and reliable
for its intended use. If you wish to update or otherwise correct Personally
Identifiable Information you have provided to us, you may edit your information
online after completing registration, or contact us as described in the
"Contact Us" section, below, and we will assist you.
Protecting Your Information
We acknowledge your trust and are committed to take reasonable steps to
protect Personally Identifiable Information you provide online from loss,
misuse, and unauthorized access. We employ physical, electronic, and managerial
processes to safeguard and secure your information.
It is your responsibility to safeguard the password you use to access our Site, and to promptly advise Zonital International if you ever suspect that your password has been compromised. We strongly encourage you to change your password regularly to prevent unauthorized access. Because your identification number and password are specific to you, you acknowledge sole responsibility for any and all use of our Site conducted with your identification number and password.
Use of Cookies on This Site
A "cookie" is a small data file transferred to your computer's
hard drive that allows a website to respond to you as an individual, gathering
and remembering information about your preferences in order to tailor its
operation to your needs, likes, and dislikes. Cookies also enable an Internet retailer
like Zonital International to keep track of a consumer's electronic
"shopping cart" before completing a purchase. Overall, cookies are
safe, as they only identify your computer to customize your web experience.
Accepting a cookie does not provide us access to your computer or any
Personally Identifiable Information about you, other than the information you
choose to share. Other servers cannot read them, nor can they be used to
deliver a virus.
Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually adjust yours (Microsoft Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Netscape Navigator) to notify you of cookie placement requests, refuse certain cookies, or decline cookies completely. If you turn off cookies completely, there may be some website features that will not be available to you, and some web pages may not display properly.
Use of Third-party Media and Research Companies
Our Site may run limited third-party ads only for those Merchant and
Services Partners with whom we link. We do not, however, use third-party media
and research companies to place ads for us on other parties' websites.
Links to Other Websites
Links to third-party websites may be provided solely for your
information and convenience, or to provide additional shopping for various other
goods and services through our Merchant and Services Partners. If you use these
links, you will leave our Site. This Privacy Statement does not cover the
information practices of those websites linked to our Site, nor do we control
their content or privacy policies. We suggest that you carefully review the
privacy policies of each site you visit.
Children's Privacy Protection
We take special care to protect the privacy needs of children and
encourage parents to be an active participant in their child's online
activities. Our Site does not target and is not intended for children under the
age of 16, and we will not knowingly collect Personally Identifiable
Information from them. If we discover personal data from a child through our
Site, we will eliminate that data.
Changes to This Statement
Any updates or changes to the terms of this Privacy Statement will be
posted here on our Site and the date of the newest version posted below. Please
check back frequently, especially before you submit any Personally Identifiable
Information at our Site, to see if this Privacy Statement has changed. By using
our Site, you acknowledge acceptance of this Privacy Statement in effect at the
time of use.
How Can You Choose Not to Receive Information About Products or Services By Us or to Correct, Delete or Access Your Information
If you desire not to receive information about products or services we think may be of interest, you can change the notification options in your account settings.
YOUR USE OF OUR SITE MEANS THAT YOU ARE ACCEPT THE PRACTICES SET FORTH IN THIS POLICY. WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO MAKE CHANGES TO THE POLICY BY POSTING THE NEW VERSION WITH A NEW EFFECTIVE DATE. YOUR CONTINUED USE INDICATES YOUR AGREEMENT TO THE CHANGES.
