PRIVACY POLICY
Our
Commitment to Privacy
Our Privacy Policy was developed as an extension
of our commitment to combine the highest-quality
products and services with the highest level
of integrity in dealing with our clients and
partners. The Policy is designed to assist you
in understanding how we collect, use and safeguard
the personal information you provide to us and
to assist you in making informed decisions when
using our site and our products and services.
This statement will be continuously assessed
against new technologies, business practices
and our customers' needs.
What Information Do We Collect?
When you visit our Web site you may provide
us with two types of information: personal
information you knowingly choose to disclose
that is collected on an individual basis
and Web site use information collected on
an aggregate basis as you and others browse
our Web site.
1. Personal Information You Choose to Provide
Credit Card Information
If you choose to purchase products or services
from us or our partners, you may need to
give personal information and authorization
to obtain information from various credit
services. For example, you may need to provide
the following information:
• Name
• Mailing address
• Email address
• Credit card number
• Home and business phone number
• Other personal information (i.e. mother’s
maiden name)
Email Information
In addition to providing the foregoing information
to our partners, if you choose to correspond
further 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
by mail and telephone.
2. Web Site Use Information
Similar to other commercial Web sites, our
Web site utilizes a standard technology called
“cookies” (see explanation below, “What Are
Cookies?”) and Web server logs to collect information
about how our Web site is used. Information
gathered through cookies and Web server logs
may include the date and time of visits, the
pages viewed, time spent at our Web site, and
the Web sites visited just before and just
after our Web site. This information is collected
on an aggregate basis. None of this information
is associated with you as an individual.
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 products and services
to our customers and prospective customers.
Occasionally, we may also use the information
we collect to notify you about important changes
to our Web site, new services and special offers
we think you will find valuable. The lists
used to send you product and service offers
are developed and managed under our traditional
corporate standards designed to safeguard the
security and privacy of our customers’ personal
information. As a customer, you will be given
the opportunity, at least once annually, to
notify us of your desire not to receive these
offers.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are a feature of
Web browser software that allows Web servers
to recognize the computer used to access a
Web site. Cookies are small pieces of data
that are stored by a user’s Web browser on
the user’s hard drive. Cookies can remember
what information a user accesses on one Web
page to simplify subsequent interactions with
that Web site by the same user or to use the
information to streamline the user’s transactions
on related Web pages. This makes it easier
for a user to move from Web page to Web page
and to complete commercial transactions over
the Internet. Cookies should make your online
experience easier and more personalized.
How Do We Use Information We Collect from
Cookies?
We use Web site browser software tools such
as cookies and Web server logs to gather information
about our Web site users’ browsing activities,
in order to constantly improve our Web site
and better serve our customers. This information
assists us to design and arrange our Web pages
in the most user-friendly manner and to continually
improve our Web site to better meet the needs
of our customers and prospective customers.
Cookies help us collect important business
and technical statistics. The information in
the cookies lets us trace the paths followed
by users to our Web site as they move from
one page to another. Web server logs allow
us to count how many people visit our Web site
and evaluate our Web site’s visitor capacity.
We do not use these technologies to capture
your individual email address or any personally
identifying information about you although
they do permit us to send focused online banner
advertisements or other such responses to you.
Sharing Information with Affiliates
From time to time you may notice offers from
outside companies advertised on our Web site.
We take measures to select product or service
providers that are responsible and afford
privacy protections to their customers. However,
we cannot make any representations about
the practices and policies of these companies.
Sharing Information with Strategic Partners
We may enter into strategic marketing alliances
or partnerships with third parties who may
be given access to personal information including
your name, address, telephone number and
email for the purpose of providing you information
regarding products and services that we think
will be of interest to you. In connection
with strategic marketing alliances or partnerships,
we will retain all ownership rights to the
information, and we will not share information
regarding your social security number or
other personal financial data.
Notice of New Services and Changes
Occasionally, we may also use the information
we collect to notify you about important
changes to our Web site, new services and
special offers we think you will find valuable.
As our client, you will be given the opportunity
to notify us of your desire not to receive
these offers by clicking on a response box
when you receive such an offer or by sending
us an email request at info@lpagent.com.
How Do We Secure Information Transmissions?
When you send confidential personal credit
card information to us on our Web site, a
secure server software which we have licensed
encrypts all information you input before
it is sent to us. The information is scrambled
en route and decoded once it reaches our
Web site.
Other email that you may send to us may not
be secure unless we advise you that security
measures will be in place prior to your transmitting
the information. For that reason, we ask that
you do not send confidential information such
as Social Security or account numbers to us
through an unsecured email.
How Do We Protect Your Information?
Information Security. We utilize encryption/security
software to safeguard the confidentiality of
personal information we collect from unauthorized
access or disclosure and accidental loss, alteration
or destruction.
Evaluation of Information Protection
Practices.
Periodically, our operations and business practices
are reviewed for compliance with corporate
policies and procedures governing the security,
confidentiality and quality of our information.
Employee Access, Training and Expectations.
Our corporate values, ethical standards, policies
and practices are committed to the protection
of customer information. In general, our business
practices limit employee access to confidential
information, and limit the use and disclosure
of such information to authorized persons,
processes and transactions.
How Can You Access and Correct Your Information?
You may request access to all your personally
identifiable information that we collect
online and maintain in our database by emailing
info@lpagen.com.
Do We Disclose Information to Outside Parties?
We may provide aggregate information about
our customers, sales, Web site traffic patterns
and related Web site information to our affiliates
or reputable third parties, but this information
will not include personally identifying data,
except as otherwise provided in this Privacy
Policy.
What About Legally Compelled Disclosure of
Information?
We may 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.
What About Other Web Sites Linked to Our Web
Site?
We are not responsible for the practices employed
by Web sites linked to or from our Web site
nor the information or content contained therein.
Often links to other Web sites are provided
solely as pointers to information on topics
that may be useful to the users of our Web
site.
Please remember that when you use a link to
go from our Web site to another Web site, our
Privacy Policy is no longer in effect. Your
browsing and interaction on any other Web site,
including Web sites which have a link on our
Web site, is subject to that Web site’s own
rules and policies. Please read over those
rules and policies before proceeding.
Your Consent
By using our Web site you consent to our collection
and use of your personal information as described
in this Privacy Policy. If we change our
privacy policies and procedures, we will
post those changes on our Web site to keep
you aware of what information we collect,
how we use it and under what circumstances
we may disclose it.
