PRIVACY POLICY

Introduction

The Events In America (EIA) Privacy Policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we collect and use the information that you provide to us and to assist you in making informed decisions when using the EIA Web site located at www.eventsinamerica.com (the "Web site"). It also exists to describe for you how your personal information and records will be kept private.

The Information We Collect

When you visit the Web site you may provide us with two types of information: Member information you knowingly choose to disclose that is collected and kept by us or the secure payment gateway provider, and event description information that is donated to us by Contributors.

When you register on the Web site, you provide us with certain personal information, such as your personal or business name, your contact information (telephone number, mailing address, email address, etc), and any other personal or preference information that you provide to us.

When you enter our Web site, we collect the user's browser type and IP address. This information is gathered for all users of the Web site. In addition, we store your session ID using "cookies." A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's computer. We use session IDs to confirm that users are logged in and allowed to access restricted parts of the Web site. These cookies terminate once users close the browser.

Use of Information Obtained by EIA

When you register on the Web site, you create your own Member or Contributor profile and privacy settings. We may use your name and email address to send you notifications regarding the Web site and, occasionally, new services we think you may find valuable.

Sharing Your Information with Third Parties

We may share your information with third parties, including responsible companies with which we have a relationship. For example:
  • We may provide information to service providers to help us bring you the services we offer. Specifically, we may use third parties to send email messages or to process secure credit card transactions. Our service providers may have access to your personal information for use in connection with these business activities.
  • We may be required to disclose customer information pursuant to lawful requests, such as subpoenas or court orders, or in compliance with applicable laws. Additionally, we may share account or other information when we believe it is necessary to comply with the law or to protect our interests or property. This may include sharing information with other companies, lawyers, agents or government agencies.
  • If the ownership of all or substantially all of the EIA business were to change, your user information would likely be transferred to the new owner.
If you do not want to receive promotional email alerts from EIA and/or do not want us to share your information with third parties for marketing purposes, please submit a request by clicking here. We will make every effort to implement any choice you make as soon as possible.

This site contains links to other Web sites. EIA is not responsible for the privacy practices of other Web sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every Web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by the EIA Web site.

Changing or Removing Information

System Administrators reserve the right to modify or adjust any information in the event database. Information will be updated in a timely manner.

Security: Credit Card Transactions

EIA takes appropriate precautions to protect our users' information. Your account information is located on a secured server behind a firewall. Because email is not recognized as a secure medium of communication, we request that you do not send private information to us by email. All credit card information is secure and processed by a third party specializing in secure credit card transactions. If you have any questions about the security of the Web site, please visit our Help page for more information.
