General Information
Vayables ("Company," "we," "our," or "us") respects your privacy and is committed to protecting it through compliance with this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy applies to information that Vayables and its affiliates and partners collects in connection with the operation of the Vayables' website accessible at www.vayables.com (the "Site"). The Privacy Policy addresses how the information is used or shared and how you can access and correct information that is collected. Please take a moment to review the terms of our Privacy Policy. By using the Site, you agree to accept the terms of the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Site. We may change, expand or contract this Privacy Policy from time to time by postings on the Site.
This Privacy Policy applies only to information collected from you by Vayables via the Site and does not apply to information obtained or disclosed through offline correspondence or other contacts with Vayables' representatives or to information we may collect by other means. In addition, to the extent that you disclose, or you authorize Vayables to disclose, your information to other parties, whether they are vendors, service providers or other users of the Site, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the information disclosed to them. Additionally, the Site may contain links to other entities' websites that are not controlled or operated by Vayables. This Privacy Policy does not apply to such third party websites, and Vayables is not responsible for the content of such third party websites or the privacy practices of such third parties. Therefore, we encourage you to request and review the privacy policies of any third parties upon disclosing your information to such parties or visiting such third party websites.
To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, maintain data accuracy and facilitate the appropriate use of information, Vayables uses physical, technological and administrative procedures to attempt to protect the personally-identifiable information we collect through the Site. Nevertheless, Internet transmissions are never completely private or secure. You understand that any messages or information you send to the Site may be read or intercepted by others.
Personal Information; Changes to Personal Information
In general, you can visit certain areas of the Site without submitting your personal information ("Personal Information"). However, in order to make a purchase on the Site, we require you to register for an account and provide Personal Information which we will use to fulfill your order and for other purposes consistent with this Privacy Policy. Moreover, other features or services may require you to provide Personal Information. For example, we may collect certain Personal Information if you choose to subscribe to a mailing list, participate in special offers, sweepstakes or other promotions, or send questions or comments to us via e-mail. You can review and change your Personal Information by logging into the Site and visiting your account profile page.
The Personal Information that Vayables collects may include your name, user name, password, email address, address, telephone number and fax number, in the case of purchasing products or services, credit card, shipping and other information relating to your order, information about your participation in programs, events and areas of interest as disclosed to us, and other information that may be requested in log-in, registration and purchase procedures. We may request and collect additional information that is necessary or appropriate for the completion of a transaction requested by you.
We may also collect certain demographic information (such as gender or age) and information about your interests and preferences ("Preferences Information"). In many cases, your providing such demographic and Preferences Information together with your Personal Information is optional. In other cases, such as online surveys, we collect this information on an anonymous basis. However, if we link any demographic or Preferences Information to any Personal Information, then such demographic and Preferences Information will be treated as Personal Information under this Privacy Policy.
For some features of the Site, you may be able to submit information about other people. For example, if you wish to e-mail an article from the Site or send information about an interesting product to a friend, you will submit your friend's e-mail address, or if you make a purchase for another person on the Site and want it shipped directly to that person, you may submit the recipient's name, address and certain other contact information. Vayables will use and store any such information that we collect from you about another person to carry out your request and for our own internal purposes.
Aggregate Information
From time to time, Vayables may collect general, non-personal, statistical information about the use of the Site, such as how many visitors visit a specific page on the Site, how long they stay on that page and which hyperlinks, if any, they "click" on. We collect this information in order to determine which areas of the Site are most popular and to enhance the Site for visitors. We may group this information into aggregate visitor data in order to describe the use of the Site to our existing or potential business partners, sponsors, advertisers or other third parties, or in response to a government request. Vayables may also group demographic and Preferences Information and responses to surveys that we collect from visitors into aggregate data for the same purposes. However, please be assured that this aggregate data will not be disclosed together with your Personal Information under these circumstances.
Cookies and Other Tracking Technologies
Vayables may use "cookies," "log files," "clear gifs" or similar technologies on certain portions of the Site. "Cookies" are small text files stored on your computer's hard drive. "Clear gifs" are small graphics files stored on your computer's hard drive that are similar in function to cookies. They allow Vayables to personalize your experience, provide specialized content and support to customers, record session information, recall visitor preferences and/or simplify the completion of online forms. Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can use settings on your browser to disable or turn off cookies. If you choose to reject the cookies used by the Site, you may be unable to access certain areas of the Site, your use of the Site may be degraded, or your ability to complete a purchase may be compromised. "Log files" are files that store information such as internet protocol addresses, browser type, internet service provider, pages visited before or after the Site and similar demographic information for aggregate use to determine how the Site is used.
Third Party Websites
Please note that you may have cookies placed on your computer by third party websites that refer you to the Site. Although we do not share your Personal Information with these third party websites, they may be able to link certain non-personally identifiable information we transfer to them with Personal Information they previously collected from you. Please review the privacy policies of each website you visit to better understand their privacy practices. In addition, Vayables would like to inform you that anytime you click on links (including advertising banners), which take you to third party websites, you will be subject to the third parties' privacy policies.
While we support the protection of our customer's privacy on the Internet, Vayables expressly disclaims any and all liability for the actions of third parties, including but without limitation to actions relating to the use and/or disclosure of Personal Information by third parties.
How We Use and Share Personal Information
With respect to the Personal Information we collect, we may retain and use that information for various purposes. Vayables may use the Personal Information internally, separately or in combination with pre-existing information, for the following purposes:
- To establish an account for you, respond to your questions or send emails to our mailing list subscribers;
- To provide any requested products or services, including, without limitation, membership services, seminars, professional development programs, tutorials, classes or other training services, books, subscriptions, polls, curricula or other products;
- To troubleshoot problems with the Site, or any products or services, as requested;
- To collect amounts owed to Vayables;
- To customize your experience or homepage on the Site;
- To ensure compliance with our policies and procedures and to enforce our Terms of Use;
- To detect and protect against error, fraud and any other unauthorized or illegal activities;
- To provide your contact and billing information to third parties that we retain to assist us in providing the products or services you request (including support services, Site services, packaging, mailing and delivering promotional materials, shipping, answering customer questions about our services and new services);
- To contact you with more information about Vayables and its services; or
- To alert you to upgrades, special offers, updated information and other new services.
Personally-identifiable information collected on the Site may be stored and processed in the United States or abroad.
Vayables will not share your Personal Information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes. However, we may disclose your Personal Information to third parties for other purposes, as set forth in this Privacy Policy. We may sometimes use other businesses to perform certain services for us, such as maintaining the Site and our mailing lists, processing orders and delivering products, sending postal mail and other communications and providing marketing assistance and data analysis. We may provide Personal Information to those businesses when that information is necessary for them to complete a requested task or otherwise perform assigned duties.
As Vayables develops, we may buy other businesses or their assets or sell our business assets. Customer information (including Personal Information) is generally one of the business assets involved in such transactions. Thus, in the event that Vayables or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer information would be one of the transferred assets.
Vayables fully cooperates with law enforcement agencies in identifying those who use our services for illegal activities, and may in its sole discretion disclose Personal Information or other information to satisfy any law, regulation, subpoena, or government request, or in connection with litigation. Vayables reserves the right to release Personal Information or other information about users who we believe are engaged in illegal activities or are otherwise in violation of our Terms of Use, even without a subpoena, warrant or court order, if we believe in our sole discretion that such disclosure is necessary or appropriate to operate the Site, or to protect the rights or property of Vayables, its affiliates, or any of their officers, directors, or employees, agents, third party content providers, suppliers, sponsors, or licensors. Vayables also reserves the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities we reasonably believe in our sole discretion to be unlawful.
Children Under the Age of 13
Vayables does not attempt to collect personal information from children. We cannot always determine if a user is a child. Vayables does not knowingly collect, use or disclose personal information from a minor under 13 years of age. No one under age 13 may provide any personal information on the Site. If you are under 13, (a) do not use or provide any information on this Site or through any of its features; (b) do not register on the Site; (c) do not make any purchases through the Site; (d) do not use any of the interactive or public comment features of this Site; and (e) do not provide any information about yourself to us, including your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address or any screen name or user name you may use. If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a child under 13 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information.
Changes to Privacy Policy
The terms of this Privacy Policy may change from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes to this Privacy Policy by posting a notice on the Site for a reasonable period of time after such changes are made that this Privacy Policy has been changed. We encourage you to check this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Your continued use of the Site following the posting of changes to this Privacy Policy will mean you accept those changes. If you have questions about this Privacy Policy, or believe that Vayables has acted inconsistently with this Privacy Policy, please contact us using our contact information below.
