Because protecting your privacy is very important
to ClassWorld.com, we operate our website under the following
guidelines to safeguard your personally identifiable information:
ClassWorld.com’s policies and procedures
for handling customer information have been created with the
understanding that Internet technologies are still evolving
and that Internet business methods are continuing to evolve
to meet the needs and opportunities of the changing technologies.
As a result, ClassWorld.com’s policies and procedures are
subject to change.
What Personal Information does ClassWorld.com collect?
In the course of serving you, our customers,
ClassWorld.com acquires, stores and transmits customer communications
and information that you may regard as private or sensitive.
Some of this information - such as your name, address, telephone
number, and credit card data - is provided to ClassWorld.com
in order to establish service. Other information - such as
your account status, choice of services, and activity logs
- is created and maintained by ClassWorld.com in the normal
course of providing service. ClassWorld.com also uses cookies,
which are small pieces of information that a web site can
store in a designated file on a user's computer for various
reasons. In addition, ClassWorld.com may store your electronic
mail and other communications as a necessary incident to the
transmission and delivery of those communications.
Data Security
ClassWorld.com will protect the confidentiality
of your information, account information and personal communications
to the fullest extent possible and consistent with the law
and the legitimate interests of ClassWorld.com, its service
providers, partners, employees and other customers of our
services. To protect the loss, misuse, and alteration of information
that is collected from customers, ClassWorld.com has appropriate
physical, electronic, and managerial procedures in place.
How is customer information used?
We hate spam and know that you do too. ClassWorld.com
will use your customer information only for purposes directly
related to your business with us: to contact you about account
issues, and to provide you with system information or information
about new or upgraded ClassWorld products. ClassWorld will
not share your information with anybody else,
except as may be required by our service providers, may be
necessary to resolve support or payment issues, or as may
be required by government authorities.
Modification of customer information.
Customers may modify their personal information
using our on-line system, or by sending an e-mail to support@ClassWorld.com.
Will ClassWorld.com ever send me direct mailings?
ClassWorld.com may contact you as described
above ("How is customer information used"). Other
than that we will not send direct mailings. If we choose in
the future to do "opt-in" mailings about other products
and services, you will first have an opportunity to
"opt out" of such mailings. We have no current plans
to do so.
How do I protect my Personal Information in public forums?
ClassWorld.com may offer interactive forums,
such as message boards and chat. ClassWorld.com users should
be aware that when they voluntarily disclose Personal Information
to other users or to third parties on the ClassWorld.com system,
through e-mail, or outside of the ClassWorld.com system, that
information can be collected and used by others and may result
in unsolicited messages from other members or third parties.
While ClassWorld.com strives to protect your Personal Information,
ClassWorld.com cannot guarantee the security of any information
that you transmit to ClassWorld.com, and you are solely responsible
for maintaining the secrecy of any passwords or other account
information.
What about privacy on sites that ClassWorld.com links
to?
ClassWorld.com may provide links to its partners
and other Internet sites. These sites have separate data and
privacy practices independent of ClassWorld.com, and ClassWorld.com
disclaims any responsibility or liability for their policies
or actions.
Disclosure of customer information and communications
ClassWorld.com will not otherwise disclose
your personal and account information unless ClassWorld.com
has reason to believe that disclosing such information is
necessary to identify, make contact with, or bring legal action
against someone who may be causing harm or interfering with
the rights or property of ClassWorld.com, ClassWorld.com’s
customers, or others, or where ClassWorld.com has a good faith
belief that the law requires such disclosure.
ClassWorld.com also will not, except for
reasons stated below, disclose to third parties the contents
of any electronic mail or other electronic communications
that ClassWorld.com stores or transmits for its customers.
The circumstances under which ClassWorld.com will disclose
such electronic customer communications are when:
-
it is necessary in order to provide
service to the customer;
-
it is necessary to protect the legitimate
interests of ClassWorld.com and its customers;
-
it is required to cooperate with interception
orders, warrants, or other legal process that ClassWorld.com
determines in its sole discretion to be valid and enforceable;
and
-
it is necessary to provide to a law
enforcement agency when the contents are inadvertently
obtained by ClassWorld.com and appear to pertain to the
commission of a crime.
ClassWorld.com disclaims any intention to
censor, edit or engage in ongoing review or surveillance of
communications stored on or transmitted through its facilities
by customers or others. ClassWorld.com will, however, review,
delete or block access to communications that may harm ClassWorld.com,
its customers or third parties. The grounds on which ClassWorld.com
may take such action include, but are not limited to, actual
or potential violations of ClassWorld.com’s Acceptable Use
