JohnSantangelo.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, eMail 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, JohnSantangelo.com 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 Iinformation 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 JohnSantangelo.com to communicate with you about
your registration and customization preferences;
our Terms of Service and privacy policy; services
and products offered by JohnSantangelo.com and other
topics we think you might find of interest.
Personally
Identifiable Information collected by JohnSantangelo.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.

While

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. JohnSantangelo.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

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 JohnSantangelo.com and this policy.
