ChartWatchCentral
- Privacy Policy
It is our belief that privacy policies on the World Wide Web
leave much to be desired. Many are written in a, seemingly intentional,
confusing manner which leaves the reader wondering exactly what
the actual policy is - or even if the site in question actually values
the visitor's privacy or is deliberately being obtuse while at the
same time insulting the visitors intelligence.
Our privacy policy at ChartWatchCentral, Inc. is quite clear
and straight to the point.
We do not and will not share any personal information about our visitors
with anyone except under force of law. The personal information we collect
when a person signs up for our services (such as name, address,
etc.) is used exclusively by us
to contact said person in the event of a problem delivering those
services and for the necessary purpose of delivery of requested
information
services - such as our subscription based e-mail newsletters - and
for the overall improvement of our services and delivery of same. Credit
card information is utilized for billing purposes only.
We
also respond to feedback, obviously, that visitors send to us by
electronic mail. We do not send UCE ( Unsolicited Commercial E-Mail
, commonly known as 'Spam' ). All e-mail sent by us to
visitors and subscribers is the result of the visitor,
or subscriber requesting same, either by direct mail contact with
us, or by utilizing one of our auto-response servers. Anyone who wishes to cancel their
services with us may contact
us anytime.
We do not implant 'Web-Bugs' (more commonly
known
as scumware and/or spyware) or any other tracking devices in a visitor's browser
anywhere on this site. Your browsing history and habits are none
of our concern. Why should that be anyone's business but yours?
We use session cookies, as do all Web sites with a paid membership
section, to verify your status upon entrance to our paid subscriber
area.
The
non-personal information collected by our webserver and mailserver in the course
of normal function, such as time of connection, I.P. address,
etc. (which is collected by all webservers and mailservers), is used as raw
data for site management, improvement, server functionality, site traffic measurement
and auditing. We use raw viewership/readership totals (which does
not include personal information) for advertising sales
purposes, site maintenance and enhancement, internal decision-making,
and, of course, to help us improve services and products for our
visitors, readers and subscribers.
Advertisers,
be they those who advertise with us, or advertisers on any
other site on the World Wide Web, have their own privacy policy.
Some, if not most, do employ persistent cookies and other tracking
code techniques. Check with our advertisers for their privacy policy. As you can
imagine, we cannot control another company's privacy policy. We
can only try to set an example by being open, clear
and honest with ours.
In short - we do not share any personal
information you give us with anyone. Period.
