Why Not Entertainment does not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of thirteen and does not target its websites to children under thirteen. If we become aware that we have inadvertently received personally identifiable information from a user under the age of thirteen as part of the site, we will delete the information from our records.
Because we do not collect any personally identifiable information from children under the age of thirteen, we also do not knowingly distribute such information to third parties. We also do not knowingly allow children under the age of thirteen to publicly post or otherwise distribute personally identifiable contact information through the site. We encourage parents and guardians to take an active role in their children’s online activities and interests.
Why Not Entertainment takes seriously the trust you place in us. To prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, to maintain data accuracy, and to ensure the appropriate use of the information, Why Not Entertainment utilizes appropriate physical, technical and administrative procedures to safeguard the information we collect. We take measures to protect the privacy of all information collected over our website. Only employees and supervisors with specific authorization have access to databases containing visitors’ personal information if provided. We offer secure web pages to collect certain kinds of user information and we store certain kinds of data in encrypted form. We follow reasonable technical and management practices to help protect the confidentiality, security and integrity of data stored on our system. While no computer system is completely secure, we believe the measures implemented by Why Not Entertainment reduce the likelihood of security problems to a level appropriate to the type of data involved.
When collecting or transferring sensitive information such as credit card information we use a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. The personal information you provide us is stored on computer systems located in controlled facilities which have limited access. When we transmit highly confidential information (such as credit card number or password) over the internet, we protect it through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol. Credit card numbers are used only for processing payments and are not used for other purposes.
The Platform for Privacy Preferences (P3P) is a new privacy technology developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). P3P technology can be found within your Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 (IE6) browser and provides you with the ability to make more informed choices about the use of your personal information online. Microsoft IE6 is the first browser to support the new privacy standard. With P3P, you can configure your browser to automatically detect if a website collects personally identifiable information, uses that information to create user profiles, or allows visitors to opt-out of the data collection.
A P3P-enabled browser has preset options from which you can choose. Or you may customize your setting by answering questions such as, what kinds of data are you willing to share and what types of "cookie" files are you willing to accept. As you surf the Web, the software then determines whether your privacy preferences match a site's data collection practices.
The P3P-enabled browser places special emphasis on cookies. A cookie is a piece of text which resides on your computer's hard drive to allow a Web application to respond to you as an individual. By gathering and remembering information about your preferences, the Web application can tailor its operation to your needs, likes and dislikes. With a P3P-enabled browser, you may be able to make selections based on whether you wish to accept various types of cookies such as session (temporary), permanent, within a given domain or outside it (third party), and with or without a special "P3P compact policy" file. A compact P3P policy describes the attributes of a given cookie.
We generally keep user data on our server or in our archives for as long as we reasonably need it. We may alter this practice according to changing requirements. For example, we may delete some data if needed to free up storage space. We may keep other data for longer periods if the law requires it. In addition, information posted in a public forum and other publicly-viewable web pages could stay in the public domain indefinitely.
We reserve the right to amend this Privacy Policy at any time, for any reason. If we change our Privacy Policy, we will post the revised statement here, with an updated revision date. Users are encouraged to check our site frequently to review the current Privacy Policy in effect.
We value your opinions. If you have comments, questions or concerns about this Privacy Policy, our privacy practices, or your dealings with us, please contact us by writing to: info@eliteforces.us
By using Why Not Entertainment website you agree to this Privacy Policy. Our Terms of Use take precedence over any conflicting Policy provision.
