Wordzine Pty Limited (referred to in this Privacy Statement as "we" or "Wordzine") recognize the importance of protecting the privacy of all information provided by users of our web sites, subscribers, recipients of our e-mail newsletters and all of our customers. We created this policy with a fundamental respect for our users' right to privacy and to guide our relationships with our users. This privacy statement discloses the privacy practices for all products and services owned by Wordzine. A current list of our web sites and web applications can be found at www.ezyzine.com.
INFORMATION COLLECTION AND USE Wordzine collects information from our website users, subscribers and customers. In this section of our privacy policy, we will describe the type of information we collect and how we use it to provide better services to our customers.
Registration - When using some of our websites and signing up for certain services (such as free subscriptions), users must first register. During registration, users are required to give their contact information (such as name, email address, etc.). E-mail Newsletters If users wish to subscribe to our e-mail newsletters, we ask for contact information (such as name, e-mail address and, occasionally, demographic information). We use this information in the same manner as we use contact information in the registration described above. Recipients of our newsletters can unsubscribe using the instructions listed at the end of the e-mail newsletter.
Communications with Us - We have features where users can submit information to us (such as our feedback forms). Requests for service, support or information may be forwarded as needed to best respond to a specific request. We may retain e-mails and other information sent to us for our internal administrative purposes, and to help us to serve customers better.
Communications from Us: Service Updates - In order to best serve our users, we may send updates that contain important information about our sites and services. For example, we send new members a welcoming message, and verify password and username for our password-protected sites.
Automatic Data Collection - Our web sites have features that automatically collect information from users, to deliver content specific to users' interests and to honor their preferences. This information assists us in creating sites that will serve the needs of our users. We use "cookies", a piece of data stored on the user's hard drive containing information about the user. Cookies benefit the user by requiring login only once, thereby saving time while on our site. If users reject the cookies, they may be limited in the use of some areas of our site. Additionally, we may note some of the pages the user visits on our site through the use of pixel tags (also called clear gifs). The use of cookies and pixels enable us to enhance the experience on our sites. We reserve the right for our business affiliates to use cookies on our sites in ads or promotions. However, we have no access to or control over these business affiliates' cookies; we urge users to read their privacy policies for information. We reserve the right to use a third-party advertising company to serve ads when you visit certain Wordzine web sites. Such company may use information (not including your name, address, email address or telephone number) about your visit to these web sites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services that may be of interest to you. In the course of serving advertisements to these web sites, our third party advertiser may place or recognize a unique cookie on your browser. For our internal purposes, we gather date, time, browser type, navigation history and IP address of all visitors to our site. This information does not contain anything that can identify users personally. We use this information for our internal security audit log, trend analysis and system administration, and to gather broad demographic information about our user base for aggregate use. We may combine demographic information supplied by a subscriber at registration with site usage data to provide general profiles, in aggregate non-personally identifiable form, about our users and their preferences in the content of the site and advertising.
CORRECTION/UPDATING PERSONAL INFORMATION If a user's personally identifiable information changes (such as zip or post code), or if a user no longer desires our service(s), we provide a way to correct or update that user's personal data. The user should contact Customer Support for the applicable service.
SECURITY - We use reasonable precautions to protect our users' personal information and to store it securely. Access to all of our users' information is restricted. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job are granted access to personally identifiable information. Finally, the servers on which we store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.
LINKS - Our web sites contain links to other sites. Wordzine is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each web site to which we may link that may collect personally identifiable information. NOTIFICATION and CHANGES If we change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on this page so our users are aware of what information we collect, how we use it and under which circumstances, if any, we disclose it. Users should check this policy frequently to keep abreast of any changes.
