When accessing the SeekNSolveAdventures.com website, Seek N Solve Adventures will learn certain information about you during your visit.
Similar to other commercial websites, our website utilizes a standard technology called "cookies" (see explanation below) and server logs to collect information about how our site is used. Information gathered through cookies and server logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at our site, and the websites visited just before and just after ours, as well as your IP address. At this point, we have no idea of how to access this information or what to do with it but, apparently, it's collected by the system so we thought you should know.
Use of Cookies
To us a cookie is a yummy thing you eat but a cookie in the internet world is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a website, that site's computer asks your computer for permission to store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated for cookies. Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser's preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites. You don't have to let your computer accept cookies but if you don't have that opt-out option set up on your computer, you are getting cookies. They aren't as good as the ones you get from a friendly neighbor, but they do help sites load faster. While you can visit our site with your cookies turned off, doing our adventures requires that your cookies are turned on. If we can't collect the cookies, the system can't keep track of your score and where you are in the game. You can always clear your phone cache to get rid of our cookies, though they really aren't so bad. Here is how you can turn your cookies on and off:
iPhone users: Go to Settings>Safari>Block Cookies>From Third Parties and Advertisers.
Android users: Go to Browser>menu>more>settings>Accept Cookies.
IP Addresses
IP addresses are used by your computer every time you are connected to the Internet. Your IP address is a number that is used by computers on the network to identify your computer. IP addresses are automatically collected by our web server as part of demographic and profile data known as “traffic data” so that data (such as the Web pages you request) can be sent to you.
If you choose to correspond with us through email, we may retain the content of your email messages together with your email address and our responses. We provide the same protections for these electronic communications that we employ in the maintenance of information received online, mail and telephone. This also applies when you register for our website, sign up through any of our forms using your email address or make a purchase on this site. For further information see the email policies below.
Email Policies
We are committed to keeping your email address confidential. We do not sell, rent, or lease our subscription lists to third parties, and we will not provide your personal information to any third party individual, government agency, or company, at any time unless strictly compelled to do so by law.
We will use your e-mail address solely to provide timely information about Seek N Solve Adventures.
We will maintain the information you send via e-mail in accordance with applicable federal law.
How Do We Use the Information That You Provide to Us?
Broadly speaking, we use personal information for purposes of administering our business activities, providing customer service, and making available other items and services to our customers and prospective customers. We may also send you an email once in a while to let you know of something great happening that you won't want to miss. Don't worry though, we don't like when a company sends us emails every day, just because we wanted one bit of information from them, so we won't do that to you.
Seek N Solve Adventures will not obtain personally-identifying information about you when you visit our site, unless you choose to provide such information to us, nor will such information be sold, or otherwise transferred, to unaffiliated third parties without the approval of the user at the time of collection.
We may have to disclose information when legally compelled to do so, in other words, when we, in good faith, believe that the law requires it, or for the protection of our legal rights. This shouldn't be a problem if we all are doing what is right but we have to let you know that illegal activity isn't okay and won't be allowed through our site.
CAN-SPAM Compliance
In compliance with the CAN-SPAM Act, all e-mail sent from our organization will clearly state who the e-mail is from and provide clear information on how to contact the sender. In addition, all e-mail messages will contain concise information on how to remove yourself from our mailing list so that you receive no further e-mail communication from us. We would be sad if you didn't want to get emails from us, we would rather you just tell us what we could do that would make you like getting them, but, if you want complete separation, we will let you go without a fuss
Choice/Opt-Out
Our site provides you the opportunity to opt-out of receiving communications from us, and our partners, (if we get any) by reading the unsubscribe instructions located at the bottom of any e-mail you receive from us at anytime.
Users who no longer wish to receive our newsletter or promotional materials may opt-out of receiving these communications by clicking on the unsubscribe link in the e-mail. If you opt-out of a weekly blog post email and you continue to get other emails from us, and you don't want them either, you can opt-out again to stop those emails. There is a chance you are on more than one of our lists so may have to unsubscribe to more than one.
Use of External Links
SeekNSolveAdventures.com may contain links to other websites. Seek N Solve Adventures cannot guarantee the accuracy of information found at any linked site; although we won't include links to inaccurate information on purpose. Links to or from external sites, not owned or controlled by Seek N Solve Adventures, do not constitute an endorsement by Seek N Solve Adventures of the sponsors of these sites, or the products or information presented therein. Again, we won't be sending you anywhere we know is unworthy of your time but sites change and products and information can be different than when we linked to them. We can't be responsible for a site we have no control over. Please let us know though if you do come across a link that doesn't seem like something we would want posted.
How Do We Protect Your Information and Secure Information Transmissions?
Email is not recognized as a secure medium of communication. For this reason, we request that you do not send private information to us by email. However, doing so is allowed, but at your own risk. Some of the information you may enter on our website may be transmitted securely via a secure medium known as Secure Sockets Layer, or SSL. Credit Card information and other sensitive information is never transmitted via email and will never be asked for by email.
Seek N Solve Adventures may use software programs to create summary statistics, which are used for such purposes as assessing the number of visitors to the different sections of our site, what information is of most and least interest, determining technical design specifications, and identifying system performance or problem areas. We set this up and it makes really neat graphs, haven't figured out what to do with all the information though. We've been told it will be helpful in making our site more beneficial to you, which we want to do as soon as we get an expert to interpret the fancy graphs.
For site security purposes and to ensure that this service remains available to all users, Seek N Solve Adventures uses software programs to monitor network traffic to identify unauthorized attempts to upload or change information, or otherwise cause damage.
Policy Changes
We reserve the right to amend this privacy policy at any time with or without notice. However, please be assured that if the privacy policy changes in the future, we will not use the personal information you have submitted to us, under this privacy policy, in a manner that is materially inconsistent with this privacy policy, without your prior consent.
We are committed to conducting our business in accordance with these principles in order to ensure that the confidentiality of personal information is protected and maintained
