Warp
11 respects the privacy of all those who visit

set forth within this Privacy Policy and our Terms
of Use and other published guidelines, we do not

WARP
11 GATHERS TWO TYPES OF INFORMATION ABOUT WEB
SITE VISITORS:
(1)
Non-personally identifiable information: When
visitors come to our web site, we collect and
aggregate information indicating, among other
things, which pages were visited, the order in
which they were visited, and which hyperlinks
were "clicked." Collecting such information
involves the logging of IP addresses, operating
system and browser software used by each visitor
to the web site. Although such information is
not personally identifiable, we can determine
from the IP address a visitor’s Internet
Service Provider and the geographic location of
his or her point of connectivity.
The
non-personally identifiable information we collect
helps us identify the most popular areas of our
web site and determine the effectiveness of our
promotional activities. In addition, we may disclose
some of this information to advertisers to inform
them of the number of people who have seen and/or
clicked through their advertisements.
For
the same purposes, we may use "cookies"
– that is, small files placed on your computer’s
hard drive – to help us determine the type
of content and sites to which you link, the length
of time you spend at any particular area of the
web site, and the specific services you choose
to use. Cookies can also tell us which advertising
you have seen on our site. Essentially, cookies
are your identification cards for the web site
computers, or servers, that placed them there.
When used, cookies are only read by the server
that placed them, and are unable to execute any
code or virus.
Cookies
can allow Warp 11 to serve you better and more
efficiently, and to personalize your experience
at the web site. Nevertheless, you should be able
to control how and whether your web browser will
accept cookies. For more information on how to
do so, please refer to the documentation accompanying
your browser.
(2)
Personally identifiable information: In certain
areas of the Warp 11 web site – for example,
when registering to purchase a product –
we request, but do not require, that you provide
us with personally identifiable information (including,
for example, first name, surname, street address,
email address, telephone number and when applicable,
credit card information).
We
do not knowingly collect personally identifiable
information from children (defined herein as minors
younger than thirteen years of age) without obtaining
parental consent. Before registering with Warp
11, we ask that children have their parents read
our Privacy Policy. Before and during the registration
process, we encourage children to include a parent
or guardian in the process.
Warp
11 does not control the acts of its customers
or visitors. All customers and visitors should
be aware that, when they disclose personally identifiable
information in a bulletin board, guest book or
other forum, the information may be collected
and used by others to send that person unsolicited
email from other parties outside Warp 11. In the
event that you encounter any Warp 11 visitor who
is improperly collecting or using information
about you or other users, please contact us at
HOW
WE USE (AND DO NOT USE) THE INFORMATION WE GATHER
Please
take some time to familiarize yourself with the
different ways Warp 11 uses the information that
it gathers. Keep in mind that, while Warp 11 encourages
all third parties involved to adhere to our policies
regarding the privacy of our visitors and members
and to otherwise handle personal information in
a responsible manner, we cannot and do not assume
any responsibility for any actions or omissions
of third parties, including the manner in which
they use information received either from Warp
11 or independently. Nevertheless, in the event
you encounter any third party associated with,
or who claims association with Warp 11 who you
feel is improperly collecting or using information
about you, please contact us at ;
we will be happy to forward your message to the
third party if possible.
(1)
How we use (and do not use) non-personally identifiable
information: We use non-personally identifiable
information in aggregate form to build higher
quality, more useful products and services by
performing statistical analyses of the collective
characteristics and behavior of our customers
and visitors, and by measuring demographics and
interests regarding specific areas of the Warp
11 web site. We provide statistical information
based on this data to advertisers, affiliates,
and other current and potential business partners.
We also use the aggregate data to inform these
third parties as to the number of people who have
seen and clicked on links to their web sites.
The
Warp 11 web site contains links to other Internet
web sites, including co-branded or other affiliated
sites that may or may not be owned or operated
by Warp 11. Unless otherwise explicitly stated,
we are not responsible for the privacy practices
or the content of such web sites, including such
sites’ use of any information (such as IP
number, browser type, or operating system) collected
when visitors to the Warp 11 web site click through
links to those sites. Even though such information
might not identify you personally, we strongly
encourage you to become familiar with the privacy
practices of those sites.
(2)
How we use (and do not use) personally identifiable
information: Warp 11 provides notice to potential
Warp 11 visitors that personally identifiable
information will be collected during the process
of registering to receive Warp 11 products or
services or participating in Warp 11 contests.
Although you may not "opt out" of the
registration process if you wish to receive Warp
11 products or participate in Warp 11 contests,
you may choose to "opt out" of receiving
promotional materials from Warp 11 and/or its
affiliates, advertisers, or other business partners.
If you do not "opt out" of receiving
such promotional materials, Warp 11 reserves the
right to release any personally identifiable registration
information regarding you to third parties who
provide goods or services that we believe may
be of interest to you. We will not release your
credit card information to third parties unless
necessary to complete a transaction between you
and such a third party. If you decide that you
would like to discontinue receiving promotional
information from such third parties, please contact
those third parties directly, or contact us at
.
Warp
11 limits its own e-mail solicitations to those
customers who have not "opted out" of
receiving such communications. The solicitations
are limited in that they, among other things,
will clearly indicate the originator of the e-mail
and provide the customer with a method of "opting
out" of receiving future communications of
a similar nature.
In
addition, Warp 11 sometimes uses individual data
to "target" advertising — to decide
which advertisements and sponsor messages to show
to which visitors. As an example, if Sponsor Co.
wishes to display their advertising only to North
American Warp 11 members, Warp 11 uses member
registration data to ensure that Sponsor Co.’s
ads are displayed only to North American visitors.
Finally,
Warp 11 may use individual visitors’ data
to "pre-populate" forms that are displayed
for the purpose of collecting individual data
by Warp 11 and/or its sponsors. In no case does
pre-populating a form automatically transfer any
data to any advertiser or third party. Only if
the visitor voluntarily requests that such data
be transferred will any transfer take place —
for example, if/when a visitor clicks a "submit
form" button or other button.
We
reserve the right to release information contained
within our access logs concerning any visitor
or member when that visitor or member is in violation
of our Terms of Use or other published guidelines,
or engages (or is reasonably suspected of engaging)
in any illegal activity, even without a subpoena,
warrant, or other court order, and to release
such information in response to discovery requests.
We cooperate with law enforcement agencies in
identifying those who may be using our servers
or services for illegal activities. We also reserve
the right to report any suspected illegal activity
to law enforcement for investigation or prosecution.
If
and when Warp 11 sponsors contests, promotions
or sweepstakes, or third parties sponsor contests,
promotions or sweepstakes in conjunction with
Warp 11, either Warp 11 or the third party will
post relevant privacy information in the official
rules and/or registration area for the contest,
promotion or sweepstakes. That privacy information,
to the extent it conflicts with this Privacy Policy,
will govern that particular contest, promotion
or sweepstakes.
CHANGING
OR DELETING PERSONAL INFORMATION
If
you would like to have your personally identifiable
information removed from Warp 11’s database,
please contact us at ,
and we will use reasonable efforts to comply with
your request. Keep in mind, however, that there
will be residual information that will remain
within Warp 11 databases, access logs, and other
records, which may or may not contain such personally
identifiable information. The residual information
will not intentionally be used for commercial
purposes.
