Privacy Policy
The FreeBingoPrizes.com
organization respects the privacy of our on-line visitors and
recognizes the importance of providing a secure environment for
them. This Privacy Policy details how FreeBingoPrizes.com safeguards
the privacy of its on-line visitors. Please note that when you
link to other sites from any of the FreeBingoPrizes.com websites,
the FreeBingoPrizes.com Privacy Policy cannot control the
activities on those other sites and our policy therefore does
not apply to these other sites. We may modify this Privacy
Policy from time to time, so it is important for you to check
back periodically to ensure that you are aware of our policies
that are in force at any given time.
Information that we may collect from our
users:
IP Address: When a user visits
FreeBingoPrizes.com website, we may collect the IP (internet protocol) address
that requested the display of our website. This address is collected
for two purposes only. The first is to promote our ability to restrict
access to the site by users who abuse our Terms of Service agreement.
The second is to support our advertising broker, so that the brokers
will be able to accurately count the number of unique visitors
to our site who may have viewed a given advertisement.
Information requested on our Sign Up page
and our Survey page as well as any user profile information
that you may provide to us as part of your use of any FreeBingoPrizes.com
website. Please note that all such information that is collected
will be precisely the data that you enter and we will endeavor
to store it as accurately as possible without modification.
Use of collected information:
Your User Name and Password will be used to uniquely
identify you as a user on FreeBingoPrizes.com website. From time
to time we may place notices on FreeBingoPrizes.com website regarding
a particular user's winnings while on the website that derive from
a FreeBingoPrizes.com game.
Other identifying information collected on the
Sign Up page may be used to calculate aggregate demographics figures
and/or facilitate our ability to direct advertisements to your
web browser that is likely to be of more interest to you.
Additional data that you voluntarily provide to
us on our Survey pages may also be used to calculate aggregate
demographics figures and/or facilitate our ability to direct advertisements
to your web browser that are likely to be of more interest to you.
Cookies:
Cookies, in web parlance, are tiny data files
that are stored on your own computer. Through your web browser,
they are only accessible by the website that wrote the cookie.
Data stored in a cookie by FreeBingoPrizes.com is only accessible
by the FreeBingoPrizes.com website. The only information that we're
storing in a cookie on your computer is your User Name and Password,
so that we may automatically log you in each time you visit FreeBingoPrizes.com
from that same computer. This information is private and is as
secure as any other data on your computer. The sole purpose for
which we use cookies is to enhance your online experience.
Security of collected information:
All data that we collect is stored on one or more
secure database servers that cannot be directly accessed from outside
our corporate network. The only access to the data available to
those outside our network is that provided by our website. Through
the website, access to your data is controlled completely by the
User Name and Password that you define -- only you can access this
information. Within our corporation, access to the database is
secured by a private user ID and password known only to key personnel
who maintain the database. All employees of FreeBingoPrizes.com
are legally bound by a rigid nondisclosure agreement that prevents
disclosure of any corporate information to other parties. In essence,
we have taken all reasonable precautions to safeguard the privacy
of your data.
Opt-Out E-Mail:
When you sign up as a FreeBingoPrizes.com user,
by default the option will be selected to allow us to communicate
with you via email about games, news, special offers and events.
You have the option to "uncheck" the box on the sign-up
form that corresponds with this, although by doing so you are potentially
asking us not to notify you of events and prize awards that might
have tangible cash value to you. Any email that we send to you
will also have a link at the bottom that will allow you to opt
out of any further mailings. You will always be able to return
to your user profile and reset this option if your preference changes
at a later date.
Opt-In Newsletters:
FreeBingoPrizes.com and its affiliate companies
may, at their discretion from time to time, create and distribute
email that we feel is pertinent to the interests of our users.
These newsletters may, beside editorial content, contain advertisements
that we feel may be of interest to you based on your responses
to the Survey on FreeBingoPrizes.com website. We will not send
these newsletters to you unless you explicitly check the box on
our survey form that indicates that you would be willing to receive
such communications from us and our affiliates. If you do opt-in
to this kind of mailing and later change your mind, you may do
so when you receive any of our mailings by clicking on the "unsubscribe" link
at the bottom of the email communication and following directions
from there.
