Privacy Statement
I am committed to providing you with excellent service. Because I
respect your right to privacy, I have developed this Privacy
Statement to inform you about my privacy practices for the entire
Ken Casey web site. As I update and improve my services, new
features may require modifications to this Privacy Statement. Any
changes to this Privacy Statement will be posted here with the
effective date at the bottom of this page.
OVERVIEW
Privacy is of great concern when using the Internet, and is a
critical part of an enjoyable and satisfactory visiting experience.
I am acutely aware of and sensitive to the privacy concerns of my
subscribers and visitors to my web site. I assure you that I do not
collect personal information from you unless you provide it to me.
If you request information on my web site you may be asked to
provide certain personal information which I will use for the
limited purpose of authenticating your identity in order to complete
your online transaction.
This web site may contain links to
other sites, including those of my business associates. While I seek
to link only to sites that share my high standards and respect for
privacy, I am not responsible for the privacy or security practices
employed by other sites. Please contact those businesses for their
privacy and security practices.
INFORMATION I GATHER FROM YOU
Personal Information
Personally identifiable information is information about you,
such as name, address, telephone number, or email address. Other
personal information may be required depending on the product or
service you request. I do not collect any personal information from
you unless you explicitly and intentionally provide it. If you are
simply browsing my site, I do not gather any personal information
about you.
I use links throughout my site to provide you with
the opportunity to contact me to ask questions, request information
and materials, register or sign up for Real Estate Newsletters, Real
Estate Tips, or provide comments and suggestions. You may also be
offered the opportunity to have me contact you personally to provide
additional information about my products or services. To do so, I
may request your name and telephone number, to help me satisfy your
request.
Depending on the type of information or service that
you request, you may be asked to provide different personal
information. For certain information and services, I may require
your name, address, telephone number, or email address. Other
information and services may require different or supplemental
information from you in order to apply.
Statistical Information About Your Visit
When you visit my site, my web computers may automatically
collect statistics about your visit. This information does not
identify you personally, but rather about a visit to my site. I may
monitor statistics such as how many people visit my site, the
visitor’s IP address, which pages people visit, from which domains
visitors come and which browsers they use. I use these statistics
about your visit for aggregation purposes only. These statistics are
used to help me improve the performance of my web site.
Use of Cookies
Sometimes this web site, like many other commercial web sites,
may utilize a standard technology called cookies to collect
information about how this site is used. A cookie is a piece of
information that this web site sends to your browser, which then
stores this information on your system. If a cookie is used, this
web site will be able to remember information about you and your
preferences either until you exit your current browser window or
until you disable or delete the cookie. Many visitors prefer to use
cookies in order to help them navigate a web site as seamlessly as
possible. You should be aware that cookies contain no more
information than you volunteer, and they are not able to invade your
hard drive and return to the sender personal or other information
from your computer.
Temporary Cookies
If you are accessing my services through one of my online
application, my web server may automatically send your browser a
temporary cookie, which is used to help your browser navigate my
site. The only information contained in these temporary cookies is a
direction value that lets my software determine which page to show
when you hit the back button in your browser. This bit of
information is erased when you close your current browser window. If
you come to this site from one of my business associates, my web
server may also send your browser a temporary cookie that reflects
an origination code for that business associate. I use this
information for statistical and marketing purposes only.
Stored Cookies
I may also make use of stored cookies in support of
authenticating the person of certain web applications. Similarly, if
you are a registered user of a page providing my services and have a
user ID and password, I may use stored cookies so that I can provide
personalized information based on preferences you have indicated
while using my web site. This type of cookie is not temporary.
Although you have the ability to modify your browser to either
accept all cookies, notify you when a cookie is sent, or reject all
cookies, it may not be possible to utilize certain services on this
site which require registration if you reject cookies.
HOW I USE THE INFORMATION I GATHER
Collecting Information
I do not collect personal information, including your email
address, unless I first ask you for it. At times, I may request that
you voluntarily supply me with information, including your email
address, street address, telephone number or other information so
that I may enhance your site visit or follow up with you after your
visit. Whether you provide any information is entirely up to you.
Sending You Responses And Updates
If you have voluntarily provided personally identifiable
information, I may from time-to-time send you mail or email
regarding products and services. If you do not want to receive such
offers and mailings, you can easily indicate that by checking the
appropriate box on the submission form.
I respond to all
email questions, requests for product or service information, and
other inquiries that I receive. I may use the information you submit
to contact you to discuss my services. I may also retain this
correspondence to improve my products, services, web site, and for
other disclosed purposes. Frequently I retain contact information so
that I can send you updates or other important information about my
services and products.
In situations where you have supplied
your information in connection with a question or request for
information about a product or service offered by a trustworthy
business associate, I may send the information you have supplied to
the business associate that offers such products or services.
I do not sell or rent personal
information collected through this site to anyone.
Disclosure by Law and Protection of Ken Casey and Others
If I am required by law to disclose certain information to local,
state, federal, national or international government or law
enforcement authorities, I will do so. In addition, I may share
information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action
regarding illegal activities or suspected fraud, or enforce or apply
my agreements.
Surveys
From time-to-time I may request information from customers via
surveys. Participation in these surveys is completely voluntary.
Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or
improving the use of and satisfaction with this web site, and
improving my customer service and offerings.
Your Ability to Opt-Out of Further Notifications
From time-to-time, I notify my subscribers of new information,
announcements and services. If you would like to opt-out of being
notified, please contact me at
info@kencasey.com.
Protecting Your Information
I exercise great care to protect your personally identifiable
information. This includes, among other things, using industry
standard techniques such as firewalls, intrusion detection, site
monitoring, and 128-bit Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption.
I consider the protection of all personally identifiable
information I receive from my web site visitors and subscribers as
critical to my business mission. Please be assured that I have
security measures in place to protect against the loss, misuse, and
alteration of any information I receive from you. As with any
transmission over the Internet, however, there is always some
element of risk involved in sending personal information.
If
you are using this web site for which you registered and chose a
password, I recommend that you do not divulge your password to
anyone. I will never ask you for your password in an unsolicited
phone call or in an unsolicited e-mail. Also remember to sign out of
the registered site and close your browser window when you have
finished your work. This ensures that if other people have access to
your computer they cannot access your personal information and
correspondence.
Updating or Correcting Your Information
If you would like to update or correct any information in my
records, please contact me via e-mail at privacy@kencasey.com. You
may correct or update any information in your profile by accessing
your account and making these changes.
Changes to this Privacy Statement
If a material change is made to this Privacy Statement and/or the
way I use my customers' personally identifiable information then I
will post prominent notice of the nature of such change on the first
page of this Privacy Statement and also on my home page.
If
you have questions or concerns regarding this privacy statement, you
should contact me at
info@kencasey.com.
