We reserve the right to collect and transfer the information you
provide to us on our contest entry forms to our third party partners
and affiliates. You will always have the option of not permitting
the transfer by not using the particular services or not participating
in the promotion or contests for which the information is collected
or shared. See "Opting Out."
The Information We Collect
At the time you agree to participate in a promotion, we collect
and store your name, e-mail address and other personally-identifying
information. We need this information to provide and to authorize
our retail partners and service providers to provide goods and services
that you request and to let you know of additional goods and services
about which you might be interested.
We may also ask you for personally-identifying information at other
times, such as if you enter into additional promotions, communicate
with us, or complete a survey. By entering our promotions, contests
or sweepstakes, you give us your permission to share your name and
e-mail address with each Sponsor or third party offering the promotion.
In addition, we automatically gather general statistical information
about our Web site and visitors, such as IP addresses, browsers,
pages viewed, number of visitors, goods and services purchased,
etc., but in doing so we do not reference you by individual name,
e-mail address, home address, or telephone number. We use this data
in the aggregate to determine how much our customers use parts of
our site so we can improve our site. We may match user information
we collect with offline data available from other sources in order
to carry out our services and conduct target advertising and promotions
more effectively.
As part of our service, we sometimes use cookies to store and track
information about you. A cookie is a small amount of data that is
sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer's
hard drive. Generally, we may use cookies to remind us who you are
and enable us to access your account information so you do not have
to re-enter it; gather statistical information about usage by registered
or unregistered users, research visiting patterns, and help target
advertisements based on user interests; assist our retail partners
track visits and process orders; and track progress and participation
in promotions. In some instances, our retail partners and advertisers
appearing at our site may use their own cookies. Preference and
options configurations in your browser determine if and how a cookie
will be accepted. You can change those configurations on your computer
if you desire. By changing your preferences, you can accept all
cookies, you can be notified when a cookie is set, or you can reject
all cookies. If you do so and cookies are disabled, you may be required
to re-enter your information more often and certain features of
our site may be unavailable.
If you obtain goods or services provided by one of our retail partners
or service providers, we may exchange with the vendor personally-identified
information about you for purposes of your transaction.
The Way We Use Information
We use your personally-identifying information to improve our marketing
and promotional efforts, to statistically analyze site usage, to
improve our content and product offerings and to customize our site's
content, layout, and services. You may prevent our use of your personally-identifying
information at any time. See "Opting Out" below.
We may use your information to deliver information to you that,
in some cases, is targeted to your interests, such as targeted banners,
new services and promotions. We may ask you to provide us voluntarily
with additional information regarding your personal or business
interests, experience or requests.
We may use your e-mail address, your mailing address, and phone
number to contact you regarding administrative notices, new product
offerings and communications relevant to your use of the site or
your participation in any of our promotions.
If you place a request for products or services from a retail partner,
we may provide your relevant information to that retailer for purposes
of the transaction. We may also disclose information to resolve
disputes, investigate problems, or enforce the terms and conditions
applicable to our promotions. At times, we may review status or
activity of multiple users to do so.
We may disclose or access information whenever we believe in good
faith that the law so requires or if we otherwise consider it necessary
to do so to maintain service and improve our products and services.
We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server,
to manage our Web site and to enhance our site based on the usage
pattern data we receive.
Opting Out
You may opt out from the collection or sharing of your personally-identifiable
information by sending an e-mail to unsubscribe@bamah.com with the
word "unsubscribe" in the subject line.
Security
We employ reasonable and current security methods to prevent unauthorized
access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure correct use of information.
Whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information online -
for example on message boards, through e-mail or in chat areas -
that information can be collected and used by others.
No data transmission over the Internet or any wireless network can
be guaranteed to be perfectly secure. As a result, while we try
to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure or guarantee
the security of any information you transmit to us, and you do so
at your own risk.
How You Can Update, Correct or Delete
Your Information
You can access the information that we collect online and maintain
through normal updating methods. To update, correct or delete this
information, you can contact updates@bamah.com.
Children Under 13
We have no way of confirming the age of individuals who access our
Web site, and so we carry out the same Privacy Policy for individuals
of all ages. If a child has provided us with personally-identifying
information without parental or guardian consent, the parent or
guardian should contact us to remove the information and opt out
of promotional opportunities. Notwithstanding, children under the
age of 13 are not permitted to use our site.
Third Party Practices
The Privacy Policy of an advertiser or promotional service appearing
at our site may differ from ours. We encourage you to read that
policy before responding to the offer.
Changes to Our Policy
Any changes to our Privacy Policy will be communicated through our
Web site at least seven (7) days in advance of its effective date.
Information collected before changes are made will be secured according
to the previous Privacy Policy.
Your Consent
By using our Web site, you consent to the collection and use of
this information in the manner we describe in this Privacy Policy.
