Privacy Statement
Empowering Media is committed to protecting your right to privacy when visiting
our web site. We recognize that when you share your personal information
with us, you expect us to treat that information in a serious and
responsible manner. This privacy statement discloses what information we
gather, how we use that information, and how you can correct or change
that information.
Requesting your information
Occassionally, Empowering Media will request personal information from our
clients. Such information may include the client's name, address, email
address, occupation, interests, etc. This information will enable Empowering
Media to determine which services you might be interested in. When you select
the option of giving us personal information over the internet that we or our
business partners may request, we will inform you of how we intend to use this
information.
When we ask for personal information for any reason, we will provide a link to
this policy statement to make our intentions clear.
Personal information privacy
Empowering Media will take all the necessary steps to keep your personal
information confidential. Those steps include limiting access to client
information databases, communicating this policy statement to all Empowering
Media employees and establishing and enforcing penalties for violating this
statement.
Empowering Media will not sell, rent, or give away our clients' personal
information to other companies for use in selling others' products or
services. When we do contract with another company to market or advertise
products or services for us, we will insist on binding agreements from those
companies protecting our client information. We will vigorously enforce all
privacy agreements we have with other companies.
We gather personal information from our clients so we can better develop
our relationship with those clients. Occasionally, we seek client comments
on our products and services. These comments allow us to determine which
products and services our clients should be made aware of based on their
specific needs.
We will communicate with clients via E-mail or other online delivery devices
only if the client agrees to receive those communications. Clients, who
believe they are receiving our communications in error or no longer desire
to receive them, should inform us and we will remove those clients' names
from our mailing lists. However, Empowering Media reserves the right, in
its discretion, to send you bulletins and other information about Empowering
Media services. Empowering Media will be judicious in the use of E-mail
and paper mail to communicate with clients. We will, at all times, put
ourselves in the place of the recipients of our mail and treat our clients
as we ourselves would like to be treated.
Empowering Media has teamed with others to provide our clients with enhanced
Internet services. In providing such services, our business partners also
may request personal information from our clients. We prohibit these business
partners from selling or giving away our client information and we require
them to have a posted Privacy Policy, so that our clients may review it
before providing personal information to our business partners.
Order information privacy and credit card security
We currently use the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol to safeguard your
information, including your credit card number, during online transactions.
None of the people, who have made purchases through Empowering Media's Web
sites using SSL, have reported to us fraudulent use of their credit card as
a result of their online order. We believe SSL to be a very safe encryption
method, but we are always looking for even more secure encryption methods
to safeguard information sent online. Our server runs detection
software to help ensure you are using a secure browser and your information
is secure when you check out. If our browser determines you are not using
a secure browser, a message will appear at checkout.
For your protection, never put your credit card number or other sensitive
information in unencrypted e-mail. In the extremely unlikely event that we
ever do suspect a client's credit card number has been intercepted, we
will immediately notify the client.
Cookies
Empowering Media currently uses "cookies" on our site. Our cookies
tag each visitor's browser with a random, unique number. The cookie simply
assigns a number and does not disclose any personal information about the
person using the browser. By noting where these uniquely numbered browsers
go on our site, we can study traffic patterns and improve our site.
