Because protecting
your privacy is very important to INTERNET
WEBHOSTING, we operate our web site under the
following guidelines to safeguard your personally
identifiable information:
INTERNET WEBHOSTING 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, INTERNET WEBHOSTING policies and
procedures are subject to change.
What Personal Information does INTERNET WEBHOSTING
collect?
In the course of serving its customers, INTERNET
WEBHOSTING acquires, stores and transmits customer
communications and information that customers may
regard as private or sensitive. Some of this
information - such as the customer's name,
address, telephone number, and credit card data -
is provided to INTERNET WEBHOSTING by its
customers in order to establish service. Other
information - such as the customer's account
status, choice of services, and customer logs - is
created and maintained by INTERNET WEBHOSTING in
the normal course of providing service. INTERNET
WEBHOSTING 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, INTERNET WEBHOSTING may
store customers' electronic mail and other
communications as a necessary incident to the
transmission and delivery of those communications.
Data Security
INTERNET WEBHOSTING will protect the
confidentiality of its customers' information,
account information and personal communications to
the fullest extent possible and consistent with
the law and the legitimate interests of INTERNET
WEBHOSTING, its partners, its employees and other
customers of INTERNET WEBHOSTING services. To
protect the loss, misuse, and alteration of
information that is collected from customers,
INTERNET WEBHOSTING has appropriate physical,
electronic, and managerial procedures in place.
How
is customer information used?
INTERNET WEBHOSTING may share customer information
with selected partners, for example, to provide
customers with information about products which
might be of interest to the customer or to enable
the customer to take advantage of special partner
programs. INTERNET WEBHOSTING may also use
customer information to provide its customers with
system information or information about new or
upgraded products.
Will INTERNET WEBHOSTING ever send me direct
mailings?
From time to time, INTERNET WEBHOSTING may send
its customers information about various products
and services that may be of interest. We will not
send you information of this type without
specifically allowing you to "opt out" of such
mailings. You can opt out by sending an e-mail to
support@internet-webhosting.com, however by doing so, you may
miss important communication regarding your
service.
In addition, if you are a INTERNET WEBHOSTING
reseller, INTERNET WEBHOSTING and/or its partners
and advertisers may from time to time send you
newsletters, promotional material, and other
mailings. You can opt out by sending an e-mail to
billing@internet-webhosting.com
How do I protect my Personal Information in public
forums?
INTERNET WEBHOSTING may offer interactive forums,
such as message boards and chat. INTERNET
WEBHOSTING users should be aware that when they
voluntarily disclose Personal Information to other
users or to third parties on the INTERNET
WEBHOSTING system, through e-mail, or outside of
the INTERNET WEBHOSTING system, that information
can be collected and used by others and may result
in unsolicited messages from other members or
third parties. While INTERNET WEBHOSTING strives
to protect your Personal Information, INTERNET
WEBHOSTING cannot guarantee the security of any
information that you transmit to INTERNET
WEBHOSTING, and you are solely responsible for
maintaining the secrecy of any passwords or other
account information.
What about privacy on sites that INTERNET
WEBHOSTING links to?
INTERNET WEBHOSTING may provide links to its
partners and other Internet sites. These sites
have separate data and privacy practices
independent of INTERNET WEBHOSTING, and INTERNET
WEBHOSTING disclaims any responsibility or
liability for their policies or actions.
Disclosure of customer information and
communications
INTERNET WEBHOSTING will not otherwise disclose
its customers' personal and account information
unless INTERNET WEBHOSTING 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
INTERNET WEBHOSTING, INTERNET WEBHOSTING
customers, or others, or where INTERNET WEBHOSTING
has a good faith belief that the law requires such
disclosure.
INTERNET WEBHOSTING also will not, except for
reasons stated below, disclose to third parties
the contents of any electronic mail or other
electronic communications that INTERNET WEBHOSTING
stores or transmits for its customers. The
circumstances under which INTERNET WEBHOSTING 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 INTERNET
WEBHOSTING and its customers;

it is required to
cooperate with interception orders, warrants, or
other legal process that INTERNET WEBHOSTING
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 INTERNET
WEBHOSTING and appear to pertain to the
commission of a crime.
-
INTERNET WEBHOSTING
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. INTERNET
WEBHOSTING will, however, review, delete or
