We respect and are committed
to protecting your privacy. That is why we have adopted this Privacy
Policy. This Privacy Policy lets you know how your personal information
is processed and explains data collection and use practices for
the Karpuza Calling Cards
Network. The " Karpuza Calling
Cards Network" includes
all Web pages, newsletters, discussion forums and lists and opt-in
announcement lists owned and operated by Jupitermedia Corporation
and each of its wholly-owned subsidiaries including, without limitation,
Jupiterimages Corporation, Hemera Technologies Inc., PictureArts
Corporation, Goodshoot SAS, and the Dynamic Graphics Group as
linked directly or indirectly from the Jupitermedia.com (collectively
the "Site") home page (collectively hereafter "
Karpuza Calling Cards
"). By accessing the Karpuza
Calling Cards Network,
you are consenting to the information collection and use practices
described in this Privacy Policy.
We promise that we will use your personal information only in
ways that are compatible with this Privacy Policy as follows:
What information are you collecting and how are you collecting
it?
Do you collect IP addresses?
Every computer connected to the Internet is given a domain name
and a set of numbers, that serve as that computer's "Internet
Protocol" IP address. When a visitor requests a page from
any Web site within the Karpuza Calling
Cards Network, our Web
servers automatically recognize that visitor's domain name and
IP address. The domain name and IP address reveal nothing personal
about you other than the IP address from which you have accessed
our Sites. We use this information to examine our traffic in aggregate,
and to investigate misuse of the Karpuza
Calling Cards Network,
its users, or to cooperate with law enforcement. We do not collect
and evaluate this information for specific individuals. Our Web
servers do not automatically record e-mail addresses of the visitors.
What are cookies?
From time to time, Karpuza Calling
Cards or its advertisers
may send a "cookie" to your computer. A cookie is a
small piece of data that is sent to your Internet browser from
a Web server and stored on your computer's hard drive. A cookie
can't read data off of your computer hard disk or read cookie
files created by other Web sites. Cookies do not damage your system.
We use cookies to identify which areas of Karpuza
Calling Cards 's Network
you have visited or customized, so the next time you visit, those
pages may be readily accessible. Our advertisers may also use
cookies to ascertain how many times you've seen an advertisement.
Our advertisers and we may use this information to better personalize
the content, banners, and promotions that you see on our Site.
You can choose whether to accept cookies by changing the settings
of your Internet browser. You can reset your browser to refuse
all cookies, or allow your browser to show you when a cookie is
being sent. If you choose not to accept these cookies, your experience
at our Site and other Web sites may be diminished and some features
may not work as intended.
How do you use single-pixel gifs?
Karpuza Calling Cards,
its third party service providers and advertisers may use single-pixel
gif images, sometimes referred to as web bugs or web beacons,
to count Web page accesses and gather some general statistical
information. Karpuza Calling Cards
does not gather personal information through the use of these
images. Our advertisers and third party providers may use single-pixel
gifs that can track personal information from cookies that may
have been previously placed on a user's computer. Karpuza
Calling Cards also uses
various third party providers (including Revenue Science, Inc.)
to track and analyze non-personally identifiable aggregate usage
information from visitors to our websites in order to continuously
improve the quality of our sites and services to you. To view
Revenue Science's privacy policy, please see www.revenuescience.com/privacyStatement.asp.
What personal information do you collect?
Wherever Karpuza Calling Cards
collects personal information we make an effort to include a link
to this Privacy Policy. We will ask you when we need information
that personally identifies you (personal information) or allows
us to contact you. The personal information we collect may include
your name, title, company or organization name, e-mail address,
phone number, work or home address, information about your job
function, information about your company, and credit card information.
We may request your e-mail address or mailing address for the
purposes of conducting a contest or to provide additional services
(for example, subscriptions to announcement lists or information
about conferences and trade shows). Participation in contests
or other promotions on the Karpuza
Calling Cards Network
is completely voluntary and you have a choice whether or not to
disclose personal information. Information requested may include
contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic
information (such as zip code). Contact information will be used
to notify the winners and award prizes.
If you are purchasing something on the Karpuza
Calling Cards Network,
we, and any third party provider, need to know your name, e-mail
address, mailing address, credit card number and expiration date.
This allows us, or third party providers, to process and fulfill
your order and to notify you of your order status. Credit card
and e-mail information will not be shared or sold to third parties
for any purpose except as provided in this Privacy Policy without
your express permission.
Karpuza Calling Cards
also offers access to some services that require registration.
We may use your registration contact information to send notification
to you of products and services by e-mail and/or postal mail.
We may share that information with our clients and they may also
send you promotional materials. We may also use your IP address
internally and share it with third parties.
When you sign up for a Karpuza Calling
Cards e-mail newsletter,
you are given the opportunity to sign up for targeted third-party
mailings. Whether or not you want to receive these announcements
is your choice. If you choose to receive an announcement from
a specific distribution list, you will receive commercial messages
from independent third parties that have contracted with Karpuza
Calling Cards to send
messages to the list. You may stop the arrival of these announcement
lists at any time by removing your e-mail address from the list
by forwarding the announcement list to announcementlist@jupitermedia.com
or by following the instructions on the e-mails you receive.
When you sign up for a Karpuza Calling
Cards discussion forum,
your name or alias is recorded solely for purposes of maintaining
your own account within the forums. This information is not used
to monitor your activity within a forum, nor is it used to identify
you outside the Karpuza Calling Cards
network.
When you use co-branded services, or those provided by a third
party, within the Karpuza Calling
Cards
Network, your information may be passed to the co-brand or third
party provider and their use of your information is subject to
their applicable privacy policies.
We may from time to time send e-mail announcing new products and
services. If you choose to supply your postal address in an online
form, you may receive postal mailings from Karpuza
Calling Cards or third
party companies.
Will you disclose the information you collect to outside third
parties?
Karpuza Calling Cards
will disclose personal information and/or an IP address:
1) To contact you regarding other products and services which
may be of interest to you (including those we may offer jointly
with other companies). At any time, however, you may opt out of
such contact;
2) When required by law or in the good-faith belief that such
action is necessary to:
a) Cooperate with the investigations of purported unlawful activities
and conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process
served on Karpuza Calling Cards;
b) Protect and defend the rights or property of the Karpuza
Calling Cards Network
of sites and related properties, or visitors to the Karpuza
Calling Cards Network
of sites and related properties;
c) Identify persons who may be violating the law, the KARPUZA
legal notice and Web site User Agreement, the rights of third
parties, or otherwise misusing the Karpuza
Calling Cards Network
or its related properties;
d) Fulfill a user's order or request;
3) To process and fulfill your order or notify you of order status;
4) When we have your consent to share the information;
5) When you use co-branded services within our network of sites,
you grant us permission to pass your registration information
back to that service partner. Their use of your information is
subject to their applicable privacy policies.
We maintain a strict "No-Spam" policy that means that
we do not sell, rent, or otherwise give your e-mail address to
a third-party, without your consent or as permitted by this Privacy
Policy.
What else should I know about my privacy when online?
Karpuza Calling Cards
may use third-party advertising companies and advertising networks
(including Revenue Science, Inc.) to serve ads to you based on
information (not including your name, address, email address or
telephone number) about your visits to our Web sites in order
to provide targeted advertisements about goods and services that
may be of interest to you while visiting other Web sites. For
more information about Revenue Science, Inc. and targeted ads,
please see www.revenuescience.com/privacycenter.asp. To opt out
of the targeting program, please go to www.networkadvertising.org/consumer/opt_out.asp.
Opting out does not mean that you will not receive online advertising.
The Karpuza Calling Cards
Network contains many hyperlinks to third party Web sites. The
Karpuza Calling Cards
Network also contains advertisements of third parties. KARPUZA
is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of
such third party Web sites or advertisers. Karpuza
Calling Cards does not
share any of the individual personal information you provide Karpuza
Calling Cards with the
third parties to which Karpuza Calling
Cards links, except as
stated elsewhere within this Privacy Policy, although Karpuza
Calling Cards may share
general, aggregate data with such third parties (such as how many
people use our Site). Please check with those Web sites to determine
their privacy policy.
If you use Karpuza Calling Cards
's discussion threads, you should be aware that any personally
identifiable information you submit there can be read, collected,
or used by other users of these forums, and could be used to send
you unsolicited messages. We are not responsible for the personally
identifiable information you choose to submit in these discussion
threads. In order to avoid your e-mail address or other personal
information from being gathered and used by others for inappropriate
or harmful purposes, Karpuza Calling
Cards advises that you
should be cautious about posting a real e-mail address or other
personal information to newsgroups, chats, or other public forums.
Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal
information online - for example through e-mail, discussion lists,
or elsewhere - that information can be collected and used by others.
In short, if you post personal information online that is accessible
to the public, you may receive unsolicited messages from other
parties in return.
Certain Karpuza Calling Cards
media properties use a shopping cart feature that safeguards this
information by using industry standard SSL (Secure Socket Layer)
encrypted servers. SSL codes the information transferred between
you and the server, rendering it unreadable to anyone trying to
intercept the information. Other Karpuza
Calling Cards media properties
do not use SSL and thereby do not offer a secure coded way to
transfer information.
Ultimately, you are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy
of your personal information. Please be careful and responsible
whenever you're online.
Business transfers
We are always seeking to improve our network of Web sites and
our business. In accomplishing these objectives, we may sell a
company, assets or websites or one or more of the companies in
our corporate family may merge with, or be acquired by, another
company. In connection with the foregoing, we may transfer some
or all of your information in order that the service being provided
to you may continue or for other business purposes.
Your Consent To This Agreement
By using the Karpuza Calling Cards
Network, you consent to the collection and use of information
by Karpuza Calling Cards as specified above. We reserve the right
to modify this Policy. If we decide to change our Privacy Policy,
we will post those changes on this page so that you are always
aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under
what circumstances we disclose
