Madisonlocations.com knows you care how
information about you is used and shared, and we
appreciate your trust that we will do so carefully
and sensibly. By visiting Madisonlocations.com, you are accepting the practices described in
this Privacy Notice.
Who are the users Madisonlocations.com gathers
information from?
Users, throughout this Privacy Notice, are defined
as individuals who register and login to the Madisonlocations.com website. Information can be
collected during set up, and during subsequent
visits, so that we may personalize and improve your
experience.
What Personal Information About Users Does Madisonlocations.com Gather?
-
Information
You Give Us: We receive and store any information you
enter on our Web site or give us in any other way. You can
choose not to provide certain information, but then you
might not be able to take advantage of our many features. We
use the information that you provide for such purposes as
responding to your requests, allowing you the function of
forwarding information to other persons, and customizing future browsing for
you, improving our site, and communicating with you.
-
Automatic
Information: We receive and store certain types of
information whenever you interact with us. For example, like
many Web sites, we use "cookies," and we obtain certain
types of information when your Web browser accesses Madisonlocations.com. A number of companies offer utilities
designed to help you visit Web sites anonymously. Although
we will not be able to provide you with a personalized
experience at Madisonlocations.com if we cannot recognize
you, we want you to be aware that these tools exist.
-
E-mail
Communications: To help us make e-mails more useful and
interesting, we often receive a confirmation when you open
e-mail from Madisonlocations.com if your computer
supports such capabilities.
-
Information
from Other Sources: For reasons such as improving accuracy
of our service (for example, providing updated information
regarding a location's contact information), we might
receive information about you from other sources and add it
to our account information. We also sometimes receive
updated contact, address and location information from other
sources so we can correct our records and present the best
possible solution for your next location request.
What About
Cookies?
-
Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we
transfer to your computer's hard drive through
your web browser. This enables our system to
recognize your browser and to provide features
such as access to your specific information, affiliate preferences and browsing
preferences.
-
The "help" portion of the toolbar on most
browsers will tell you how to prevent your
browser from accepting new cookies, how to have
the browser notify you when you receive a new
cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether.
However, cookies allow you to take full
advantage of some of Madisonlocations.com's
coolest features, and we recommend you leave
them turned on.
Does Madisonlocations.com Share the Information
It Receives?
Information about our users is an important part of
our business, and we are not in the business of
selling it to others. For example, Madisonlocations.com does not sell, and will never sell,
information about you to external marketers, list
brokers, or other third parties without user
consent. Nor will we give such information to
affiliated businesses or companies we team up with
to provide co-branded or jointly owned offerings
unless you choose to take advantage of those
offerings, and even then, any sharing of information
is limited to information relating to the offering.
Further, whenever we deal with user information, we
will always comply with applicable laws and
regulations in doing so.
We share user
information as described below:
-
Affiliated Businesses: only in conjunction with
co branded marketing. We work closely with our
affiliated businesses. In some cases, we will
include offerings from these businesses on Madisonlocations.com. In other cases, we may
include joint offerings from Madisonlocations.com and these businesses on
Madisonlocations.com. You can tell when another business is
involved in the offering, and we share user
information related to those offerings with that
business.
-
Agents: We employ other companies and
individuals to perform functions on our behalf.
Examples include sending e-mail, removing
repetitive information from user lists,
analyzing data, and providing marketing
assistance. They have access to personal
information needed to perform their functions,
but may not use it for other purposes.
-
Promotional Offers: Sometimes we send offers to
selected groups of Madisonlocations.com users
on behalf of other businesses. When we do this,
we do not give that business your name and
e-mail address. If you do not want to receive
such offers, please email us to adjust your
preferences.
-
Business Transfers: As we continue to develop
our business, we might sell or buy additional
services or business units. In such
transactions, user information generally is
transferred along with the rest of the service
or business unit. Also, in the event that Madisonlocations.com, or substantially all of
its assets are acquired, user information will
of course be included in the transaction.
-
Protection of Madisonlocations.com and
others: We release account and other personal
information when we believe release is
appropriate to comply with law; enforce or apply
of Terms Of Service and other agreements; or
protect the rights, property, or safety of Madisonlocations.com, our users, or others.
This includes exchanging information with other
companies and organizations for fraud
protection.
Other
than as set out above, you will always receive
notice when information about you might go to third
parties, and you will have an opportunity to choose
not to share the information.
What About Third-Party Advertisers?
Our
site includes third-party advertising, and some of
our advertisers use third-party companies to serve
their advertisements that appear on our site. Often,
these third-party advertising companies, called "ad
networks" or "network advertisers", employ cookie
and other technologies to measure the effectiveness
of their ads and to show you ads that are more
relevant and interesting to you. We do not provide
any user information to them, and we do not have
access to or control cookies that may be placed by
the ad networks. If you would like more information
about the ad networks, including information about
how to opt-out of their information collection, the
National Advertising Initiative offers useful
information on its Web site.
How
Secure Is Information About Me?
If you use our
subscription service, we work to protect the security of your
subscription information during transmission by using Secure
Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you
input.
It is important for you to protect against
unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be
sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.
What Choices and Access Do I Have?
-
As
discussed above, you can always choose not to
provide information, even though it might be
needed to take advantage of such Madisonlocations.com features.
-
You can add or update certain information, such
as your e-mail address, by logging into your
account on the right hand side of the home page.
When you update information, we usually keep a
copy of the prior version for our records.

If
you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail
from us, please email us to adjust your
preferences. (If you do not want to receive
legal notices from us, such as this Privacy
Notice, those notices will still govern your use
of Madisonlocations.com, and it is your
responsibility to review them for changes.)
-
The "help" portion of the toolbar on most
browsers will tell you how to prevent your
browser from accepting new cookies, how to have
the browser notify you when you receive a new
cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether.
However, you will not be able to use some
important features if you do not use cookies.
