Your privacy is important to us. This document outlines the types
of personal information we receive and collect when you use
Gondwananet, as well as some of the steps we take to safeguard
information. We hope this will help you make an informed decision about
sharing personal information with us.
Gondwananet strives to maintain the highest standards of decency,
fairness and integrity in all our operations. Likewise, we are
dedicated to protecting our customers', consumers' and online visitors'
privacy on our website.
Personal Information
Gondwananet collects
personally identifiable information from the visitors to our website
only on a voluntary basis. Personal information collected on a
voluntary basis may include name, postal address, email address,
company name and telephone number.
This information is collected if you request information from us,
participate in a contest or sweepstakes, and sign up to join our email
list or request some other service or information from us. The
information collected is internally reviewed, used to improve the
content of our website, notify our visitors of updates, and respond to
visitor inquiries.
Once information is reviewed, it is discarded or stored in our files.
If we make material changes in the collection of personally
identifiable information we will inform you by placing a notice on our
site. Personal information received from any visitor will be used only
for internal purposes and will not be sold or provided to third
parties.
Use of Cookies and Web Beacons
We may use cookies
to help you personalise your online experience. Cookies are identifiers
that are transferred to your computer's hard drive through your Web
browser to enable our systems to recognise your browser. The purpose of
a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific
page. For example, if you personalise the sites pages, or register with
any of our site's services, a cookie enables Gondwananet to recall your
specific information on subsequent visits.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies by modifying your Web
browser; however, if you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able
to fully experience the interactive features of the site.
A web beacon is a transparent image file used to monitor your journey
around a single website or collection of sites. They are also referred
to as web bugs and are commonly used by sites that hire third-party
services to monitor traffic. They may be used in association with
cookies to understand how visitors interact with the pages and content
on the pages of a web site.
We may serve third-party advertisements that use cookies and web
beacons in the course of ads being served on our web site to ascertain
how many times you've seen an advertisement. No personally identifiable
information you give us is provided to them for cookie or web beacon
use, so they cannot personally identify you with that information on
our web site.
Some third-party advertisements may be provided by Google, which uses
cookies to serve ads on this site. Google uses the DART cookie, which
enables it to serve ads to our users based on their visits to this site
and other sites on the Web. You may opt out of the use of the DART
cookie by visiting the
Google ad and content network privacy
policy.
Browsers can be set to accept or reject cookies or notify you when a
cookie is being sent. Privacy software can be used to override web
beacons. Taking either of these actions
shouldn't cause a problem with our site, should you so choose.
