Privacy
Statement |
 |
Thank you for visiting www.i-commercepartners.com or
www.icpuniversity.com. This Site is powered by I-Commerce Partners LLC.
and made available by I-Commerce Partners as a service to you or the Partners
that referred you. As used in this Privacy Statement, the terms "our," "we" and
"us" refer to both I-Commerce Partners and the Partner that referred unless the
context clearly provides otherwise.
We appreciate the opportunity to interact with you on the Internet and are
committed to protecting and safeguarding your privacy. The purpose of this
Privacy Statement is to inform you about the types of information we might
collect about you when you visit our Site, how we may use that information,
whether we disclose it to anyone, and the choices you have regarding our use of,
and your ability to correct, that information.
What Information We Collect and How We Use It
Any information we collect on our Site generally falls into the following two
categories: Personally Identifiable Information or Aggregate Information.
1. Personally Identifiable Information
This refers to information that lets us know who you are or things specifically
about you.
A. Guests
Guests can browse our Site using the Visitor function without revealing any
Personally Identifiable Information with the exception of your name.
B. Registration
When you register to become a Partner with I-Commerce Partners, we will collect
Personally Identifiable Information (such as name, e-mail address, and telephone
number). This Personally Identifiable Information is securely stored and may be
accessed under Account Information. You are assigned an identification number
and select your own password-both are needed to enter the Site and to access
your Contact Information.
2. Aggregate Information
This refers to information that does not, by itself, identify you as a specific
individual. Such information would include the Uniform Resource Locator ("URL")
of the Web site that referred you to our Site, your Internet Protocol ("IP")
address (a number automatically assigned to your computer whenever you surf the
Web), your operating system and browser type, and any search terms that you
enter on our Site. Our Web server aggregates this information in order to
monitor the level of activity on our Site, evaluate its effectiveness, and
improve the content of our Site in order to make your visit an easy and
enjoyable experience.
We may collect, compile, store, publish, promote, report, or otherwise disclose
or use any Aggregate Information, provided that such information does not
personally identify you. We do not correlate any Personally Identifiable
Information with the Aggregate Information that we collect on our Site. If we do
correlate any Aggregate Information to you, it will be protected like any other
Personally Identifiable Information under this Privacy Statement.
Sharing Your Information
Except as disclosed in this Privacy Statement, we do not sell, trade, rent, or
otherwise retransmit any Personally Identifiable Information we collect online
unless we have your permission. Any Personally Identifiable Information you
provide to us will be stored in our databases in the United States.
1. Partners
With training from I-Commerce Partners, you'll receive advice and information
from your own personal business advisory team-a support network consisting of
your sponsoring Partner and upline organization. To allow such communication, we
may share your contact information with your sponsoring Partner and upline
organization. They have agreed not to share your information with any
non-affiliated third parties, and are obligated to observe the intent of this
Privacy Statement.
2. Customers and Guests
To assure the highest level of personal service, we may share Personally
Identifiable Information about you with your referring Partners, who are
committed to making sure you're pleased with the products you purchase and that
you receive a favorable experience. Your referring Partners have agreed not to
share your information with any non-affiliated third parties, and are obligated
to observe the intent of this Privacy Statement.
3. General
We may share Personally Identifiable Information you provide online with other
I-Commerce Partners-related entities and/or trusted business partners with whom
we collaborate, as well as those that provide services to our Site. Where we
engage non-affiliated third-party agents or contractors, we require them also to
observe the intent of this Privacy Statement.
From time to time, we may be required to provide Personally Identifiable
Information in response to court order, subpoena, or government investigation.
We also reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities
that we in good faith believe to be unlawful. We may release Personally
Identifiable Information when we believe that such release is reasonably
necessary to enforce or apply our Terms of Use or to protect the rights,
property, and safety of others and ourselves.
Should I-Commerce Partners or its related entities merge with or be acquired by
another business entity, or its respective assets be acquired, you should expect
that we would share some or all of your Personally Identifiable Information to
companies assuming the role of serving you and other users of our Site.
Your Choices
Your permission is always secured first. We will not use or share the Personally
Identifiable Information collected on our Site in ways unrelated to the purpose
for which you provided the information, including those described above, without
providing you a choice whether to permit any such unrelated uses.
Accessing and Correcting Your Information
We take reasonable measures to ensure that any Personally Identifiable
Information we collect on our Site is accurate, current, complete, and reliable
for its intended use. If you wish to update or otherwise correct Personally
Identifiable Information you have provided to us, you may edit your information
online after completing registration, or contact us as described in the "Contact
Us" section, below, and we will assist you.
Protecting Your Information
We acknowledge your trust and are committed to take reasonable steps to protect
Personally Identifiable Information you provide online from loss, misuse, and
unauthorized access. We employ physical, electronic, and managerial processes to
safeguard and secure your information.
It is your responsibility to safeguard the password you use to access our Site,
and to promptly advise I-Commerce Partners if you ever suspect that your
password has been compromised. We strongly encourage you to change your password
regularly to prevent unauthorized access. Because your identification number and
password are specific to you, you acknowledge sole responsibility for any and
all use of our Site conducted with your identification number and password.
Use of Cookies On This Site
A "cookie" is a small data file transferred to your computer's hard drive that
allows a Web site to respond to you as an individual, gathering and remembering
information about your preferences in order to tailor its operation to your
needs, likes and dislikes. Overall, cookies are safe, as they only identify your
computer to customize your Web experience. Accepting a cookie does not provide
us access to your computer or any Personally Identifiable Information about you,
other than the information you choose to share. Other servers cannot read them,
nor can they be used to deliver a virus.
Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually adjust yours
(Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator) to notify you of cookie
placement requests, refuse certain cookies, or decline cookies completely. If
you turn off cookies completely, there may be some Web site features that will
not be available to you, and some Web pages may not display properly.
Use of Active-X and JAVA Applets On This Site
Active-X programs and JAVA applets are executable programs that can be
transferred to your computer's hard drive to cause your computer to perform
functions in connection with your visit to a Web site. Our Site does not
transfer any Active-X programs or Java Applets to your computer's hard drive.
Links To Other Web Sites
Links to third-party Web sites may be provided solely for your information and
convenience. If you use these links, you will leave our Site. This Privacy
Statement does not cover the information practices of those Web sites linked to
our Site, nor do we control their content or privacy policies. We suggest that
you carefully review the privacy policies of each site you visit.
Children's Privacy Protection
We take special care to protect the privacy needs of children and encourage
parents to be an active participant in their child's online activities. Our Site
does not target and is not intended for children under the age of 16, and we
will not knowingly collect Personally Identifiable Information from them. If we
discover personal data from a child through our Site, we will eliminate that
data.
Changes To This Statement
We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to change this Privacy Statement
at any time and without prior notice.
Any updates or changes to the terms of this Privacy Statement will be posted
here on our Site and the date of the newest version posted below. Please check
back frequently, especially before you submit any Personally Identifiable
Information at our Site, to see if this Privacy Statement has changed. By using
our Site, you acknowledge acceptance of this Privacy Statement in effect at the
time of use.
Contact Us
If you have any concerns about the Site or this Privacy Statement, please send
an e-mail to support@i-commercepartners.com. We will make every reasonable
effort to address your concerns and remedy any problems you bring to our
attention.
