The privacy of our visitors to shophotshops.com is important to us.
At shophotshops.com, we recognize that privacy of your personal information is important. Here is information on what types
of personal information we receive and collect when you use and visit shophotshops.com, and how we safeguard your information.
We never sell your personal information to third parties.
Log Files
As with most other websites, we collect
and use the data contained in log files. The information in the log files include your IP (internet protocol)
address, your ISP (internet service provider, such as AOL or Shaw Cable), the browser you used to visit our site (such as
Internet Explorer or Firefox), the time you visited our site and which pages you visited throughout our site.
Cookies
and Web Beacons
We do use cookies to store information, such as your personal preferences when you visit our site.
This could include only showing you a popup once in your visit, or the ability to login to some of our features, such as forums.
We also use third party advertisements on shophotshops.com to support our site. Some of these advertisers may
use technology such as cookies and web beacons when they advertise on our site, which will also send these advertisers (such
as Google through the Google AdSense program) information including your IP address, your ISP , the browser you used to visit
our site, and in some cases, whether you have Flash installed. This is generally used for geotargeting purposes (showing
New York real estate ads to someone in New York, for example) or showing certain ads based on specific sites visited (such
as showing cooking ads to someone who frequents cooking sites).
DoubleClick DART cookies
We also may use DART
cookies for ad serving through Google’s DoubleClick, which places a cookie on your computer when you are browsing the
web and visit a site using DoubleClick advertising (including some Google AdSense advertisements). This cookie is used
to serve ads specific to you and your interests (”interest based targeting”). The ads served will be targeted
based on your previous browsing history (For example, if you have been viewing sites about visiting Las Vegas, you may see
Las Vegas hotel advertisements when viewing a non-related site, such as on a site about hockey). DART uses “non
personally identifiable information”. It does NOT track personal information about you, such as your name, email
address, physical address, telephone number, social security numbers, bank account numbers or credit card numbers. You
can opt-out of this ad serving on all sites using this advertising by visiting http://www.doubleclick.com/privacy/dart_adserving.aspx
You can choose to disable or selectively turn off our cookies or third-party cookies in your browser settings,
or by managing preferences in programs such as Norton Internet Security.
Deleting cookies does not mean
you are permanently opted out of any advertising program. Unless you have settings that disallow cookies, the next time
you visit a site running the advertisements, a new cookie will be added.
