Zip Code Finder Privacy Policy

This privacy statement covers the site at http://www.Zip-Code-Area-Code-Finder.info. Because Zip Code Finder wants to demonstrate its commitment to our users' privacy, it is disclosing its information practices policy and invites public comment on this policy. The statement explains the following:

  1. What personally identifiable information Zip Code Finder collects.

  2. How Zip Code Finder uses the information.

  3. That Zip Code Finder does not share user information except in limited circumstances

  4. What choices are available to users regarding collection, use and distribution of the information.

  5. How users can correct any inaccuracies in the information.


INFORMATION COLLECTION

Zip Code Finder is the sole owner of the information collected on the Zip Code Finder web site. Zip Code Finder collects information from our users at several different points on our web site.

Registration Form
In order to receive information by email, a user must first complete a registration form. During registration, a user gives contact information (such as age and email address). We use this information to tailor content on the web site so we can provide a more personalized experience.

Order Form

We also request information from the user on our order form. A user must provide contact information (such as name, email, and shipping address) and financial information (such as credit card number with expiration date). This information is used for billing purposes and to fill customer's orders. If we have trouble processing an order, the information is used to contact the user.


INFORMATION USE

Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's computer tied to information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site. We use session ID cookies for site management purposes only. Other sites use cookies, known as "Persistent Cookies," that remain on the user's hard drive for months, years or forever. The Zip Code Finder web site uses only "Session cookies." Once a user closes the browser, the cookie simply terminates.

Log Files
Like most standard web sites, we use log files. This includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. None of this information is linked to personally identifiable information. We use a tracking utility called Webalizer that collates data from log files to analyze user movement.

Clear Gifs
We use clear gifs for site design purposes. These are not to be confused with the software technology called clear gifs (a.k.a. Web Beacons or Web Bugs) that manage content on a web site by tracking users. Clear gifs are invisible on the page and are much smaller than ordinary graphics, about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. Our clear gifs are not tied to users' personally identifiable information and do not track users.

SHARING

Legal Disclaimer
Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law where we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on our web site. Where possible, we will notify affected users before disclosing information in response to a subpoena.

Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those proposed changes to this privacy statement on a separate page at http://www.Zip-Code-Area-Code-Finder.info/pages/changes.htm so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected.

In some cases where we post a notice of proposed changes to this Privacy Statement, we will also email those users who have requested notice of any changes in our privacy practices.

Links
This web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we, Zip Code Finder, are not responsible for the privacy practices of any other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this web site.
