PRIVACY POLICY

Last Updat­ed: 07 June 2011

The Phoenix Cen­tre Press Web­site (phoenixcentrepress.com) strives to offer its vis­i­tors the many advan­tages of Inter­net tech­nol­o­gy and to pro­vide an inter­ac­tive and per­son­al­ized expe­ri­ence. We may use Per­son­al­ly Iden­ti­fi­able Infor­ma­tion (your name, e‑mail address, street address, tele­phone num­ber) sub­ject to the terms of this pri­va­cy pol­i­cy. We will nev­er sell, barter, or rent your email address to any unau­tho­rized third par­ty. Period.

How we gath­er infor­ma­tion from users

How we col­lect and store infor­ma­tion depends on the page you are vis­it­ing, the activ­i­ties in which you elect to par­tic­i­pate and the ser­vices pro­vid­ed. For exam­ple, you may be asked to pro­vide infor­ma­tion when you reg­is­ter for access to cer­tain por­tions of our site or request cer­tain fea­tures, such as newslet­ters or when you make a pur­chase. You may pro­vide infor­ma­tion when you par­tic­i­pate in sweep­stakes and con­tests, mes­sage boards and chat rooms, and oth­er inter­ac­tive areas of our site. Like most Web sites, The Phoenix Cen­tre also col­lects infor­ma­tion auto­mat­i­cal­ly and through the use of elec­tron­ic tools that may be trans­par­ent to our vis­i­tors. For exam­ple, we may log the name of your Inter­net Ser­vice Provider or use cook­ie tech­nol­o­gy to rec­og­nize you and hold infor­ma­tion from your vis­it. Among oth­er things, the cook­ie may store your user name and pass­word, spar­ing you from hav­ing to re-enter that infor­ma­tion each time you vis­it, or may con­trol the num­ber of times you encounter a par­tic­u­lar adver­tise­ment while vis­it­ing our site. As we adopt addi­tion­al tech­nol­o­gy, we may also gath­er infor­ma­tion through oth­er means. In cer­tain cas­es, you can choose not to pro­vide us with infor­ma­tion, for exam­ple by set­ting your brows­er to refuse to accept cook­ies, but if you do you may be unable to access cer­tain por­tions of the site or may be asked to re-enter your user name and pass­word, and we may not be able to cus­tomize the site’s fea­tures accord­ing to your preferences.

What we do with the infor­ma­tion we collect

Like oth­er Web pub­lish­ers, we col­lect infor­ma­tion to enhance your vis­it and deliv­er more indi­vid­u­al­ized con­tent and adver­tis­ing. We respect your pri­va­cy and do not share your infor­ma­tion with anyone.

Aggre­gat­ed Infor­ma­tion (infor­ma­tion that does not per­son­al­ly iden­ti­fy you) may be used in many ways. For exam­ple, we may com­bine infor­ma­tion about your usage pat­terns with sim­i­lar infor­ma­tion obtained from oth­er users to help enhance our site and ser­vices (e.g., to learn which pages are vis­it­ed most or what fea­tures are most attrac­tive). Aggre­gat­ed Infor­ma­tion may occa­sion­al­ly be shared with our adver­tis­ers and busi­ness part­ners. Again, this infor­ma­tion does not include any Per­son­al­ly Iden­ti­fi­able Infor­ma­tion about you or allow any­one to iden­ti­fy you individually.

We may use Per­son­al­ly Iden­ti­fi­able Infor­ma­tion col­lect­ed on The Phoenix Cen­tre Press Web­site (phoenixcentrepress.com) to com­mu­ni­cate with you about your reg­is­tra­tion and cus­tomiza­tion pref­er­ences; our Terms of Ser­vice and pri­va­cy pol­i­cy; ser­vices and prod­ucts offered by The Phoenix Cen­tre Press Web­site (phoenixcentrepress.com) and oth­er top­ics we think you might find of interest.

Per­son­al­ly Iden­ti­fi­able Infor­ma­tion col­lect­ed by The Phoenix Cen­tre Press Web­site (phoenixcentrepress.com) may also be used for oth­er pur­pos­es, includ­ing but not lim­it­ed to site admin­is­tra­tion, trou­bleshoot­ing, pro­cess­ing of e‑commerce trans­ac­tions, admin­is­tra­tion of sweep­stakes and con­tests, and oth­er com­mu­ni­ca­tions with you. Cer­tain third par­ties who pro­vide tech­ni­cal sup­port for the oper­a­tion of our site (our Web host­ing ser­vice for exam­ple) may access such infor­ma­tion. We will use your infor­ma­tion only as per­mit­ted by law. In addi­tion, from time to time as we con­tin­ue to devel­op our busi­ness, we may sell, buy, merge or part­ner with oth­er com­pa­nies or busi­ness­es. In such trans­ac­tions, user infor­ma­tion may be among the trans­ferred assets. We may also dis­close your infor­ma­tion in response to a court order, at oth­er times when we believe we are rea­son­ably required to do so by law, in con­nec­tion with the col­lec­tion of amounts you may owe to us, and/or to law enforce­ment author­i­ties when­ev­er we deem it appro­pri­ate or nec­es­sary. Please note we may not pro­vide you with notice pri­or to dis­clo­sure in such cases.

Secur­ing Your Information

This site has secu­ri­ty mea­sures in place to pro­tect the loss, mis­use and alter­ation of the infor­ma­tion under our con­trol. No infor­ma­tion is stored on The Phoenix Cen­tre Press Web­site (phoenixcentrepress.com). We keep sub­scrip­tion data on our com­pa­ny sys­tem; this infor­ma­tion is inac­ces­si­ble through the Inter­net. Your shop­ping pref­er­ences (and option­al­ly your cred­it card infor­ma­tion) is NOT stored on our serv­er. All shop­ping infor­ma­tion is encod­ed, using Secure Sock­ets Lay­er. (SSL)

Pur­chas­es Through Our Website

The Phoenix Cen­tre Press Web­site (phoenixcentrepress.com) uses a vari­ety of inde­pen­dent com­pa­nies (includ­ing, but not lim­it­ed to: Ama­zon, Eseller­ate, Kuna­ki, Pay­Pal, Ebook­ling, etc.) as our shop­ping cart and ful­fill­ment choic­es. As such, The Phoenix Cen­tre Press Web­site (phoenixcentrepress.com) uses their shop­ping cart sys­tem for cus­tomer pur­chas­es. The ful­fill­ment com­pa­nies send us the pur­cha­sor’s con­tact infor­ma­tion. Con­tact infor­ma­tion from the pur­chase form is used for send­ing infor­ma­tion about our com­pa­ny to our cus­tomers. The cus­tomer’s con­tact infor­ma­tion is also used to get in touch with the vis­i­tor when nec­es­sary. Users may opt-out of receiv­ing future mail­ings; see the choice/opt-out sec­tion below. Finan­cial infor­ma­tion (like account or cred­it card num­bers) that is col­lect­ed is used to bill the user for prod­ucts and ser­vices stored exclu­sive­ly on the ful­fill­ment com­pa­ny’s site.

Sub­scrip­tion Con­tact Information

Our site’s sub­scrip­tion form requires users to give us con­tact infor­ma­tion (name and email address.) We use cus­tomer con­tact infor­ma­tion from the reg­is­tra­tion form to send the user infor­ma­tion about our com­pa­ny. The cus­tomer’s con­tact infor­ma­tion is also used to con­tact the vis­i­tor when nec­es­sary. Users may opt-out of receiv­ing future mail­ings; see the choice/opt-out sec­tion below.

Choice/Opt-Out
This site gives users the fol­low­ing options for remov­ing their infor­ma­tion from our data­base to not receive future com­mu­ni­ca­tions or to no longer receive our service.
The only reg­u­lar and sched­uled e‑mail we send is to:

to peo­ple who have down­loaded our free book­lets, or pur­chased a prod­uct from us.
There are unsub­scribe links pro­vid­ed on each mailing.

Affil­i­at­ed sites, linked sites and advertisements

The Phoenix Cen­tre Press Web­site (phoenixcentrepress.com) expects its part­ners, adver­tis­ers and affil­i­ates to respect the pri­va­cy of our users. Be aware, how­ev­er, that third par­ties, includ­ing our part­ners, adver­tis­ers, affil­i­ates and oth­er con­tent providers acces­si­ble through our site, may have their own pri­va­cy and data col­lec­tion poli­cies and prac­tices. For exam­ple, dur­ing your vis­it to our site you may link to, or view as part of a frame on a The Phoenix Cen­tre Press Web­site (phoenixcentrepress.com) page, cer­tain con­tent that is actu­al­ly cre­at­ed or host­ed by a third par­ty. Also, through The Phoenix Cen­tre Press Web­site (phoenixcentrepress.com) you may be intro­duced to, or be able to access, infor­ma­tion, Web sites, fea­tures, con­tests or sweep­stakes offered by oth­er par­ties. The Phoenix Cen­tre Press Web­site (phoenixcentrepress.com) is not respon­si­ble for the actions or poli­cies of such third par­ties. You should check the applic­a­ble pri­va­cy poli­cies of those third par­ties when pro­vid­ing infor­ma­tion on a fea­ture or page oper­at­ed by a third party.

While on our site, our adver­tis­ers, pro­mo­tion­al part­ners or oth­er third par­ties may use cook­ies or oth­er tech­nol­o­gy to attempt to iden­ti­fy some of your pref­er­ences or retrieve infor­ma­tion about you. For exam­ple, some of our adver­tis­ing is served by third par­ties and may include cook­ies that enable the adver­tis­er to deter­mine whether you have seen a par­tic­u­lar adver­tise­ment before. Oth­er fea­tures avail­able on our site may offer ser­vices oper­at­ed by third par­ties and may use cook­ies or oth­er tech­nol­o­gy to gath­er infor­ma­tion. The Phoenix Cen­tre Press Web­site (phoenixcentrepress.com) does not con­trol the use of this tech­nol­o­gy by third par­ties or the result­ing infor­ma­tion, and is not respon­si­ble for any actions or poli­cies of such third parties.

You should also be aware that if you vol­un­tar­i­ly dis­close Per­son­al­ly Iden­ti­fi­able Infor­ma­tion on mes­sage boards or in chat areas, that infor­ma­tion can be viewed pub­licly and can be col­lect­ed and used by third par­ties with­out our knowl­edge and may result in unso­licit­ed mes­sages from oth­er indi­vid­u­als or third par­ties. Such activ­i­ties are beyond the con­trol of The Phoenix Cen­tre Press Web­site (phoenixcentrepress.com) and this policy.
