Privacy Policy subject to change at discretion of Taltopia.com. At Taltopia.com
we observe the following in respect to your privacy:
Cookies
Like many websites, we use “cookies” to collect information. A cookie is a small
data file that we transfer to your computer’s hard disk for record-keeping purposes.
We use cookies for two purposes. First, we utilize persistent cookies to save your
registration ID and login password for future logins to the Site. Second, we utilize
session ID cookies to enable certain features of the Site, to better understand
how you interact with the Site, and to monitor aggregate usage by users and web
traffic routing on the Site. Third party advertisers on the Site may also place
or read cookies on your browser. You can instruct your browser, by editing its options,
to stop accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie from the websites
you visit.
Registration Data
To enable site features, we may ask you to register. Except for username or any
other data you explicitly make public, we do not share your personal information
outside of Taltopia.com.
Log Information
When you use Taltopia, our servers automatically record information that your browser
normally sends whenever you visit a website. These server logs may include data
such as your web request, IP address, and browser type. We may examine site usage
patterns in aggregate to determine how we can make the site easier to use.
Security
Taltopia uses commercially reasonable physical, managerial, and technical safeguards
to preserve the integrity and security of your personal information. We cannot,
however, ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to Taltopia
and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission of information,
Taltopia makes commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the security of our systems.
However, please note that this is not a guarantee that such information may not
be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our physical,
technical, or managerial safeguards.
User Submitted Content & User Communications
Any content you submit to the site (videos, voting, comments, etc.) will be publicly
available. From time to time employees may examine this content or other user behavior
to confirm that the terms of service are not being breached. When you send email
or other communication to Taltopia, we may retain those communications in order
to process your inquiries, respond to your requests and improve our services. We
will not send you marketing emails if you opt-out during registration or use the
unsubscribe link in a previous email.
Childrens' Privacy
Protecting the privacy of young children is especially important. For that reason,
Taltopia does not knowingly collect or maintain personally identifiable information
or non-personally-identifiable information on the Taltopia Site from persons under
13 years of age, and no part of our website is directed to persons under 13. If
you are under 13 years of age, then please do not use or access the Taltopia Sites
at any time or in any manner. If Taltopia learns that personally identifiable information
of persons under 13 years of age has been collected on the Taltopia Sites without
verified parental consent, then Taltopia will take the appropriate steps to delete
this information.
Third Party Advertising
Ads appearing on this Web site may be delivered to users by Taltopia.com or one
of our Web advertising partners. Our Web advertising partners may set cookies. These
cookies allow the ad server to recognize your computer each time they send you an
online advertisement. In this way, ad servers may compile information about where
you, or others who are using your computer, saw their advertisements and determine
which ads are clicked on. This information allows an ad network to deliver targeted
advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This privacy statement
covers the use of cookies by Taltopia.com and does not cover the use of cookies
by any advertisers.
Links
Taltopia.com contains links to sites. Taltopia is not responsible for the privacy
policies and/or practices on other sites. When linking to another site a user should
read the privacy policy stated on that site. Our privacy policy only governs information
collected on Taltopia.
Change of Control
In the Event of Merger, Sale, or Bankruptcy In the event that Taltopia is acquired
by or merged with a third party entity, we reserve the right, in any of these circumstances,
to transfer or assign the information we have collected from our Users as part of
such merger, acquisition, sale, or other change of control. In the unlikely event
of our bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, or assignment for the
benefit of creditors, or the application of laws or equitable principles affecting
creditors' rights generally, we may not be able to control how your personal information
is treated, transferred, or used.
