This page sets forth the site terms and privacy policies
of www.masonicdiary.com.au (aka "This Site").
Site Terms
I. LINKS TO OTHER SITES
This Site has relationships with other companies that we
allow to place ads and links on our Web pages. As a result
of your visit to This Site, ad server companies may collect
information such as your domain type, your IP address, and
clickstream information.
Please note that when you click on one of these links, you
are moving from This Site to another Web site. We encourage
you to read the site terms and privacy statements of these
linked sites as their site terms and privacy policies may
differ from ours.
II. ORDERS
If you purchase a product from one of the companies This
Site represents, they will request certain personally identifiable
information from you on their order form. You must provide
contact information (such as name, email, and shipping address)
and financial information (such as credit card number, expiration
date). This Site is not responsible for the site terms or
privacy policies of such other sites so review their site
terms and privacy policy before completing your order.
III. REGISTRATION FOR NEWSLETTER
If This Site offers a newsletter then registration is required
with This Site, such as name and email address. We use this
information to contact you about the services on our site
in which you have expressed interest. We will never share
this information unless required to do so by law enforcement
agencies, as stated below in our privacy policy.
Privacy Policy
CONSUMER PRIVACY
I. INFORMATION WE COLLECT: INDIVIDUAL INTERNET CONSUMERS
A. Personally Identifiable Information (PII).
Under no circumstances does This Site request or collect sensitive
PII such as an Internet user's medical/health conditions;
racial or ethnic origin; political, religious or philosophical
beliefs or affiliations; trade union membership or sex life.
B. Non-Personally Identifiable Information (Non-PII).
When a consumer responds to or views an Internet advertisement
served by This Site (such as through third-party Web sites
or email solicitation) or visits an advertiser's web site,
we send a cookie and/or gif file ("Cookies") to
assign an anonymous, unique identifier to the end user's Internet
browser. Cookies are small data files commonly used on the
Internet to help optimize and personalize the Internet end
user experience and identify repeat visitors to Web sites.
This Site uses Cookies to obtain information about the preferences
of consumers and the services they select; and also to optimize
and personalize the Internet user's experience. If the Internet
user re-visits the advertiser's site directly, This Site is
able to continue to track the user's activities.
Like most standard Web site servers, we use log files to
collect Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet
service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type,
and date/time stamp. We use the information to analyze site
usage, administer the site, understand usage and navigation
trends in aggregate, and determine the relevance of content.
This information, however, is not linked to any personally
identifiable information.
We also may use Internet browsing and online purchase data
associated with an anonymous identifier to develop a predictive
statistical user profile of the end user's needs and interests.
This Site does not use Cookies or log files to collect end
users' names, physical addresses, email addresses, phone numbers,
credit card numbers, social security numbers, or any other
information which can be used to identify a specific person.
We may match the IP address and user profile with email address
data obtained separately in order to better target campaigns
to meet user's interests, but will not share this information
with third parties.
This Site has relationships with other companies that we
allow to place ads and links on our Web pages. Please note
that when you click on one of these links, you are moving
to another web site. We encourage you to read the privacy
statements of these linked sites as their privacy policies
may differ from ours.
Some of these other companies may use marketing technology
that allows advertisers to add non-personally-identifying
demographic information, such as age, gender, area code, or
ZIP code, to the non-identifiable profile data. Thus, there
is no direct connection between an end user's online choices
and his or her personal identity.
In some cases, This Site receives and records partial email
addresses of Internet users, only in circumstances where the
user voluntarily provided its identity and contact information
through the Advertiser's site or third-party marketer's site.
This partial email address does not enable This Site to personally
identify an Internet User nor is it shared, sold, rented,
or given away.
II. INFORMATION SHARING
This Site may release account and any other personal information
when we believe release is appropriate to respond to a subpoena
or otherwise comply with the law; or protect the rights, property,
or safety of This Site or others. This may include exchanging
information with other companies and organizations for fraud
protection.
III. CONSUMER CHOICE AND ACCESS
A. Opting Out.
Some Cookies have an "opt-out" option. This process
does not remove This Site's Cookie from your system; it simply
replaces it with an opt-out Cookie that does not contain any
unique identifiers. If this site provides such a process it
is detailed below.
Some of This Site's Cookies do not have an "opt-out"
option, yet you still have the option of blocking the use
of Cookies by changing a setting in your Internet browser.
Please see your browser supplier's Web site for details on
how to do this.
This site does not maintain a process for an individual consumer
to opt-out of This Site's Cookies.
B. Accessing Consumer Information.
Because they are not directed towards individual Internet
users, most sites do not maintain a process for an individual
consumer to review and/or request changes to any PII collected.
Except as provided below, this site does not maintain a process
for an individual consumer to access his/her PII.
IV. SECURITY
This Site employs industry standard security measures to
ensure the security of all data. Any data that is stored on
This Site's servers is treated as proprietary and confidential
and is not available to the public. This Site allows access
to this data only to those employees or third parties who
have a need to know such information for the purpose of effectively
delivering This Site's products and services by means of user
login and password requirements.
No transmission of data over the Internet is guaranteed to
be completely secure. It may be possible for third parties
not under the control of This Site to intercept or access
transmissions or private communications unlawfully. While
we strive to protect your PII, This Site cannot ensure or
warrant the security of any information you transmit to us.
You acknowledge and assume this risk when communicating with
This Site.
V. CONSENT AND CHANGES
This Site may find it necessary or be legally obligated to
update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do,
we will post those changes on this page and update the effective
date so that you are always aware of the information we collect,
how we use it, and under what circumstances we disclose it.
Except as otherwise required by law, modifications to this
Privacy Policy will not affect the privacy of data collected
by This Site prior to the effective date of the policy change.
VI. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY AND SPAM
This Site is very sensitive to the issue of children's privacy
and makes every effort to protect the privacy of children
using the Internet. It is possible that This Site's Web site,
products, and services may may not be appropriate for or directed
at children. Children (persons under the age of 18) are not
eligible to do business with us and we do not collect personal
information from any person we actually know is under the
age of 13.
This Site is committed to proper Internet practices and full
compliance with the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 (15 U.S.C. §
7701). It is our policy to prohibit the sending of unsolicited
or "Spam" e-mail by This Site or any of our marketing
partners.
Please note that under the CAN-SPAM Act, an advertiser is
required to provide an opt-out mechanism for consumers to
unsubscribe from future emails about the advertiser. Although
not required to by law, many email marketers also include
an opt-out mechanism to enable consumers to be removed from
their mailing list. This has caused some confusion for consumers
in opting out. The table below clarifies which opt-out mechanism
you should use for commercial emails.
VII. DATA PROCESSING/SAFE HARBOR
The European Union ("EU") maintains strict privacy
laws. These rules differ significantly from US laws. To reconcile
these differences, the US and the EU have created a Safe Harbor
that defines mutually acceptable privacy operations. This
Site adheres to the Safe Harbor principals. For more information
see www.export.gov/safeharbor.
VIII. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, THIRD PARTY INFORMATION &
LANGUAGE
YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE OVER PRIVACY IS
SUBJECT TO THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY
AND OUR SITE TERMS (INCLUDING LIMITATIONS ON DAMAGES, AND
ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES). YOU AGREE THAT THIS SITE'S LIABILITY
FOR ANY BREACH OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY SHALL BE LIMITED TO
THE GREATER OF THE VALUE OF THE TRANSACTIONS OR SERVICES PROVIDED
TO YOU BY THIS SITE OR $250 TO THE EXTENT SUCH CLAIM IS NOT
OTHERWISE BARRED BY OUR TERMS AND CONDITIONS. You also agree
that you have provided notice to, and obtained consent from,
any third party individuals whose personal data you supply
to This Site with regard to: (a) the purposes for which such
third party's personal data has been collected; (b) the intended
recipients or categories of recipients of the third party's
personal data; (c) which of the third party's data are obligatory
and which data, if any, are voluntary; and (d) how the third
party can access and, if necessary, rectify the data held
about them. It is the express will of the parties that this
agreement and all related documents have been drawn up in
English.
