PERSONAL AND NON-PERSONAL INFORMATION
Our Privacy Policy identifies how we treat your personal and non-personal information.
WHAT IS NON-PERSONAL INFORMATION AND HOW IS IT COLLECTED AND USED?
Non personal information is information that cannot identify you. If you visit
this web site to read information, such as information about one of our
services, we may collect certain non-personal information about you from your
computer’s web browser. Because non-personal information cannot identify you or
be tied to you in any way, there are no restrictions on the ways that we can
use or share non-personal information. What is personal information and how is
it collected? Personal information is information that identifies you as an
individual, such as your name, mailing address, e-mail address, telephone
number, and fax number. We may collect personal information from you in a
variety of ways: • When you send us an application or other form • When you
conduct a transaction with us, our affiliates, or others • When we collect
information about you in support of a transaction, such as credit card
information • In some places on this web site you have the opportunity to send
us personal information about yourself, to elect to receive particular
information, to purchase access to one of our products or services, or to
participate in an activity.
ARE COOKIES OR OTHER TECHNOLOGIES USED TO COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION?
Yes, we may use cookies and related technologies, such as web beacons, to
collect information on our web site. A cookie is a text file that is placed on
your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or
deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can
only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you. One
of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save
you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have
returned to a specific page. For example, if you register with us, a cookie
helps Tribestac to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This
simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing
addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same Tribestac
website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can
easily use the features that you customized. A web beacon is a small graphic
image that allows the party that set the web beacon to monitor and collect
certain information about the viewer of the web page, web-based document or
e-mail message, such as the type of browser requesting the web beacon, the IP
address of the computer that the web beacon is sent to and the time the web
beacon was viewed. Web beacons can be very small and invisible to the user,
but, in general, any electronic image viewed as part of a web page or e-mail,
including HTML based content, can act as a web beacon. We may use web beacons
to count visitors to the web pages on the web site or to monitor how our users
navigate the web site, and we may include web beacons in e-mail messages in
order to count how many messages sent were actually opened, acted upon or
forwarded.
Third party vendors also may use cookies on our web site. For instance, we may
contract with third parties who will use cookies on our web site to track and
analyze anonymous usage and volume statistical information from our visitors
and members. Such information is shared externally only on an anonymous,
aggregated basis. These third parties use persistent cookies to help us to
improve the visitor experience, to manage our site content, and to track visitor
behaviour. We may also contract with a third party to send e-mail to our
registered [users/members].
To help measure and improve the effectiveness of our e-mail communications, the
third party sets cookies. All data collected by this third party on behalf of Tribestac
is used solely by or on behalf of Tribestac and is shared externally only on an
anonymous, aggregated basis. From time to time we may allow third parties to
post advertisements on our web site, and those third-party advertisements may
include a cookie or web beacon served by the third party. This Privacy Policy
does not cover the use of information collected from you by third party ad
servers. We do not control cookies in such third party ads, and you should
check the privacy policies of those advertisers and/or ad services to learn
about their use of cookies and other technology before linking to an ad. We
will not share your personal information with these companies, but these
companies may use information about your visits to this and other web sites in
order to provide advertisements on this site and other sites about goods and
services that may be of interest to you, and they may share your personal
information that you provide to them with others.

automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting
to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not
be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Tribestac websites

prosecuting web site visitors who violate our rules or engage in behavior,
which is harmful to other visitors (or illegal). We may disclose your personal
information to third parties if we feel that the disclosure is necessary to
protect our rights or property, protect someone’s health, safety or welfare, or
to comply with a law or regulation, court order or other legal process. As
discussed in the section on cookies and other technologies, from time to time
we may allow a third party to serve advertisements on this web site.

information, and you should check the privacy policies of those advertisers
and/or ad services to learn about their use of cookies and other technology
before linking to an ad.
