Privacy Policy
Warren College Television ("WCTV") is committed to protecting the online privacy
of visitors to its website. We believe that greater protection of personal
privacy on the web will not only protect consumers, but also increase consumer
confidence and ultimately their participation in online activities. At WCTV, we
intend to give you as much control as possible over your personal information.
The purpose of our policy is to inform you about the types of
information we gather about you when you visit our site(s), how we may use that
information, whether we disclose it to anyone, and the choices you have
regarding our use of, and your ability to correct, the information.
Our site(s) may contain links to other websites. We have no
control over the privacy practices or the content of any of our business
partners, advertisers, sponsors or other sites to which we provide links from
our sites. You should check the applicable privacy policy of the website sponsor
when linking to other websites.
I. Personal Information Which We Collect
We may request that you supply us with personal information, including your
name, email address, postal address, home or school telephone number, credit
card number (only if you choose to purchase a product online), for such purposes
as correspondence, making a purchase, or participating in online contests,
surveys or games. If you choose to give us personal information via the Internet
that we or our business partners may need--to correspond with you, to process an
order or to provide you with a subscription, for example--then it is our intent
to let you know how we will use such information. Like many other commercial
sites, our site(s) may utilize a standard technology called a "cookie" to
collect information about how our site is used. Cookies were designed to help a
website recognize a user's browser as a previous visitor and thus save and
remember any preferences that may have been set while the user was previously
browsing the site. Our cookie cannot retrieve any other data from your hard
drive or pass on a computer virus. Our website(s) may use cookies to enhance
your visit. Cookies can securely store a user's password, personalize web home
pages, identify which parts of a site have been visited or keep track of
selections, such as those selected in a "shopping cart." Our cookies may collect
a domain name (for example, "aol.com" or "netcom.com") and track a path through
our web pages. We only use "cookies" to gather the information indicated in this
policy and do not use cookies to gather personal identifying information about
you (such as your name) without your consent.
We may require you to supply us with personal information
(demographic information such as age, gender, income, education, population
data, zip codes) during a "registration" process online prior to using certain
features of our site (for example, prior to entering an online sweepstakes).
This type of information may also be collected for statistics gathered from
online viewer surveys. We use this general information in statistical form to
understand our site's demographics, such as percentage of male and female users,
geographic location, age ranges, or a combination of these or other
demographics. We also require registration in some circumstances to contact
users when necessary, such as with online sweepstakes and message boards. As
detailed below, we will not share specific information about you to advertisers
or third parties without your consent. WCTV is not responsible for events
arising from the distribution of the registration information if you choose to
publicly post or share that information.
II. Use of User Information
We may perform statistical analyses of aggregate (group) user behavior. This
allows us to measure relative consumer interest in the various areas of our
websites for product development purposes. Any information we collect is used
for our own internal purposes to improve the content of the website(s), to
enhance users' experiences when visiting our site(s), to customize the content
and/or layout of our pages, and to provide the services required by an
individual user. We do not use personal identifying information for any reason
that is not disclosed either in this Policy or at the time the information is
requested. Aside from an automatic reply to an email received by us, it is our
intent not to email you unless you request a particular service, or consent to
being contacted by email. There may be instances where you will have the
opportunity to subscribe to an email list that will send information about the
site or our advertisers to your email address, but after an initial mailing
gauging your interest this will be continued only with your permission and
consent.
Some third-party advertising companies may utilize certain
technologies to deliver specific advertisements, which appear on pages
throughout this website, to the site's users. These companies may collect, store
and use non-personally identifiable user information. If you want to prevent a
third-party advertiser from collecting such user information, you may either
visit each third party advertiser's website directly and opt-out. You may also
visit Network Associates at www.nai.com for
solutions regarding consumer privacy.
III. Disclosure to Third Parties
We do not share personal identifying information with any third party without
your permission. We disclose only in aggregate (group) form our statistical
analyses or demographics of users to third parties, such as advertisers or other
business partners. This aggregate information does not include names or email
addresses. In some instances, we operate shared websites with businesses
affiliated with us. Our Privacy Policy will apply to these websites. PLEASE BE
AWARE that when you voluntarily disclose personal information (such as your name
or email address) in message boards and other public forums or to third parties,
that information may be collected by others outside our control and may result
in unsolicited messages from others.
IV. Accuracy of User Information
Questions regarding our Privacy Policy, the accuracy of your personal
information or the use of the information collected should be directed via email
to matthew@pinionsolutions.com, or
you can reach us by telephone at (858) 534-WCTV. You also can write us at:

These privacy policies are effective as of June 1, 2003. We
reserve the right to change this Policy at any time, and will post any changes
to this Policy as soon as they go into effect.
V. Security of Information
We seek to ensure the security of personal information submitted by our users.
When collecting credit card information for online purchases, we offer
secured-server transactions that encrypt your information in transit to thwart
someone from intercepting it and misusing it. When we collect other information
from our users, it is stored in an area to which the general public does not
have access. Some critical data may also be encrypted to ensure further
security.
VI. Opting-out
At times while assessing our site(s), a user may be given a choice of
"opting-out" of certain uses of his or her information. We will provide this
choice where appropriate.
VII. Permission to Use of Materials
The right to download and store or output the materials in our site(s) is
granted for the user's personal use only, and materials may not be reproduced in
any edited form. Any other reproduction, transmission, performance, display or
editing of these materials by any means mechanical or electronic without the
express written permission of WCTV is strictly prohibited. Users wishing to
obtain permission to reprint or reproduce any materials appearing on this site
may contact us at
matthew@pinionsolutions.com.
