Collection, use, and disclosure of personally identifiable information is governed in accordance with the terms stated in this policy.
Information Tracking
In certain instances when using Rebecca Watkins Photography Internet-based products, users may be asked to enter a first and last name and other personal information. We use this personal information only for the purpose specified at the time you input such information, including for access identity safeguards and other security purposes. The Rebecca Watkins Photography will not collect any information without the user’s express consent. Some usage of the web sites and services is tracked for verification purposes.
The Rebecca Watkins Photography uses a software technology called “cookies” to create a personalized web experience. The use of cookies is common in the Internet industry; you’ll find them at many sites. A cookie is simply a Hyper Text Transfer Protocol (HTTP) header that consists of a text-only string that is entered into the memory of a browser. This string contains the domain, path, lifetime, and value of a variable that a web site sets. If the lifetime of this variable is longer than the time the user spends at that site, then this string is saved to file for future reference. Cookies remember your Rebecca Watkins Photography settings upon returning to the site. We do not use cookies to retrieve any other type of information from our users. Please note: Your browser must be set to accept cookies to use some of the Rebecca Watkins Photography web sites and services.
We do track certain information, such as navigation through the site and site usage. These data are used to analyze trends and/or internal statistical purposes only. No personal information is stored or used in any way as a result of this tracking, nor is this information disseminated to any third parties.
An Internet Protocol (IP) address is a number automatically assigned to your computer whenever you use the World Wide Web. Web servers—the computers that “serve up” web pages—automatically identify your computer by its IP address. Rebecca Watkins Photography collects IP addresses for system administration and also to compile aggregate information and audit the use of our site. The Rebecca Watkins Photography web site logs IP addresses and browser types for systems administration purposes. These logs will be analyzed to improve the value of the materials available on the web site. A user’s session will be tracked, but the user will be anonymous.
We do not link IP addresses to any personally identifiable information. We can and will use IP addresses to identify a user when we feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with our rules or terms of service or to protect our service, site, customers, or others.
Security Measures
The importance of security for all personally identifiable information is of utmost concern to us. We exercise great care in providing secure storage of your information on private network servers not available by direct web addresses.
Use of Your Personally Identifiable Information
In certain cases you may choose to give us personally identifiable information about yourself, such as your name, and e-mail address in response to specific requests. This information is never passed to third parties. Only user IDs may be passed to the Rebecca Watkins Photography vendors, suppliers, or subcontractors (“Contractors”) in order to seamlessly integrate their product(s) with the Rebecca Watkins Photography Environment, or other Rebecca Watkins Photography Internet-based products. Rebecca Watkins Photography enters into contracts with such Contractors which contain confidentiality and non-disclosure provisions requiring that such Contractors maintain the confidentiality of any personally identifiable information which may be disclosed by Rebecca Watkins Photography to the Contractor in order to utilize such Contractor’s product, and the Contractor promises not to disclose such information to any other party.
Rebecca Watkins Photography is not responsible for any actions or policies of such third parties to whom you may voluntarily provide personally identifiable information, and you should check the applicable privacy policy of such party when providing personally identifiable information to them. Personally identifiable information retained by Rebecca Watkins Photography will be used only for internal purposes such as ensuring web site access security and tracking site and courseware usage.
