Our Commitment To Privacy
Your privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy we provide this notice explaining our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used.
As a general policy, no personal information is automatically collected from users of the site. In the event that we do collect any personally identifiable data about visitors to this site, that information is only collected on a voluntary basis, and it is only known to Verismo Media Group.
Please read this Privacy Policy carefully. Your use of and/or registration on any aspect of the website will constitute your agreement to this Privacy Policy. If you cannot agree to the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy, please do not use the website. This Privacy Policy does not cover information collected elsewhere, including without limitation offline and on sites linked to and from the website.
This Privacy Policy may be modified from time to time; the date of the most recent revisions will appear on this page, so check back often. Continued access of veritasmag.com by you will constitute your acceptance of any changes or revisions to the Privacy Policy.
The Information We Collect
This notice applies to all information collected or submitted on veritasmag.com. On some pages you can enter a contest, complete a survey, order products, make requests, register to receive materials, and subscribe to our newsletter. The types of personal information you may be asked to provide include name, address, phone number, or email address. Additional information such as your age, gender, or occupation may also be requested.
The Way We Use Information
Verismo Media Group uses this information to provide you with the service you have requested. For instance, if you subscribe to any of our publications we may use your e-mail address to send you a confirmation notice and your mailing address to send you the publication. In the same way, if you enter an online contest, we will use this information to notify you if you are a winner. We may also use the information to communicate with you about new features, products, or services, and/or to improve the services that we offer by tailoring them to your needs.
All such personal information is retained by Verismo Media Group and is not sold or otherwise transferred outside the organization unless we obtain your express consent to do so or if we are required by law or by court/governmental order to disclose such information in a particular circumstance. This data, in aggregate, non-personally-identifying form, may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising or other uses. If you do not wish to receive further commercial communications from us by e-mail, simply follow the unsubscribe instructions contained within the e-mail. If you’ve registered on any part of the website, please use the mechanism on the website that allows you to change or update your member preferences or information, if available, to keep all such data accurate and up-to-date.
We use non-identifying and aggregate information to better design our website and to share with advertisers. For example, we may tell an advertiser that X number of individuals visited a certain area on our website, or that Y number of men and Z number of women filled out our registration form, but we would not disclose anything that could be used to identify those individuals.
Finally, we never use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt-out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.
Our Commitment To Data Security
To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.
This site uses "cookies," which are pieces of information that are transferred to an individual user's hard drive for record-keeping purposes. Verismo Media Group never uses cookies to retrieve information from your computer that was not originally sent in a cookie and the cookie itself does not contain any personally identifying information. Cookies function by saving your passwords and site preferences—and as a result, it is possible to speed up your future activities at our site and allow us to provide you information specifically tailored to your interests. Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies. If you would prefer, you can set your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. However, it may be possible that some parts of the site will not function optimally if you do so.
Our Commitment To Children's Privacy
This website is not intended for use by children, especially those under age 13. In compliance with the Federal Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, no personal information (including name, mailing address, telephone number, and email address) will be collected from any visitor under the age of 13. Minors between the ages of 13 and 17 must first obtain verifiable consent from the parent or legal guardian before making purchases, including subscriptions, on this site.
If your children disclose information about themselves in our public discussion forum they may get unsolicited messages from other parties. You should consider using parental control tools available from online services and software manufacturers to help supervise your children's online activities. These tools can also prevent children from disclosing their name, address, and other personal information online without parental permission.
If you're worried about your children's activities or their privacy on our site, we encourage you to contact us as described below.
