Privacy Policy
We have created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy and security. This Privacy Policy describes how WatersideMarina.com collects information from all end users of WatersideMarina.com's Internet services (the "Services")-those who access our Services but do not have accounts ("Visitors")-what we do with the information we collect, and the choices Visitors have concerning the collection and use of such information. WatersideMarina.com requests that you read this Privacy Policy carefully. Personal Information WatersideMarina.com Collects and How It Is Used Introduction . WatersideMarina.com collects information in different ways from Visitors and Members who access the various parts of our Services and the network of Web sites accessible through our Service. We use this information primarily to provide a customized experience as you use our Services and, generally, do not share this information with third parties. However, we may disclose personal information collected if we have received your permission beforehand or in very special circumstances, such as when we believe that such disclosure is required by law or other special cases described below. Registration : There is currently no registration required to use this website. Online Advertisements : From time to time, WatersideMarina.com may display online advertisements. We may share aggregated and non-identifying information about our Visitors and Members collected through the registration process as well as through online surveys and promotions with these advertisers. Additionally, in some instances, we use this aggregated and non-identifying information to deliver tailored advertisements. For instance, an advertiser tells us the audience they want to reach (for example, males between 25 and 55 years of age) and provides us an advertisement tailored to the audience. Based upon the aggregated and non-identifying information we have collected, we may then display the advertisement to the intended audience. WatersideMarina.com does not share personal information about its Visitors or Members with these advertisers. Responses to Email Inquiries : When Visitors or Members send email inquiries to WatersideMarina.com, the return email address is used to answer the email inquiry we receive. WatersideMarina.com does not use the return email address for any other purpose and does not share the return email address with any third party. Voluntary Customer Surveys : We may periodically conduct both business and individual customer surveys. We encourage our customers to participate in these surveys because they provide us with important information that helps us to improve the types of services we offer and how we provide them to you. Your personal information and responses will remain strictly confidential, even if the survey is conducted by a third party. Participation in our customer surveys is voluntary. We take the information we receive from individuals responding to our Customer Surveys and combine (or aggregate) it with the responses of other WatersideMarina.com customers to create broader, generic responses to the survey questions (such as gender, age, residence, hobbies, education, employment, industry sector, or other demographic information). We then use the aggregated information to improve the quality of our services to you, and to develop new services and products. This aggregated, non-personally identifying information may be shared with third parties. Special Cases : It is WatersideMarina.com's policy not to use or share the personal information about Visitors of Members in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses. However, WatersideMarina.com may disclose personal information about Visitors or Members, or information regarding your use of the Services or Web sites accessible through our Services, for any reason if, in our sole discretion, we believe that it is reasonable to do so, including: to satisfy laws, such as the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, regulations, or governmental or legal requests for such information; to disclose information that is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our Terms of Service or other user policies; to operate the Services properly; or to protect WatersideMarina.com and our Members. Registration for Promotions : From time to time, WatersideMarina.com may on its own, or in conjunction with other partners, offer certain promotions or giveaways which require registration. If you register for such a promotion or giveaway, WatersideMarina.com may use your registration/contact information to send notification to you of WatersideMarina.com services by e-mail and/or postal mail. WatersideMarina.com may also share your registration information with our clients, business partners or other third parties. As a result, our clients, business partners or third parties may also send you promotional material. WatersideMarina.com may also use your IP address internally and share it with third parties. "Cookies" and How WatersideMarina.com Uses Them : A "cookie" is a small data file that can be placed on your hard drive when you visit certain Web sites. WatersideMarina.com may use cookies to collect, store, and sometimes track information for statistical purposes to improve the services we provide and to manage our telecommunications networks. If you are a Member, we will use a cookie to save your settings and to provide customizable and personalized services. These cookies do not enable third parties to access any of your customer information. Additionally, be aware that if you visit non-WatersideMarina.com Web sites where you are prompted to log in or that are customizable, you may be required to accept cookies. Advertisers and partners may also use their own cookies. We do not control use of these cookies and expressly disclaim responsibility for information collected through them. WatersideMarina.com recommends that children ask a parent for permission before sending personal information to WatersideMarina.com, or to anyone else online. Public Forums : Please remember that any information you may disclose in public areas of our Web sites or the Internet, becomes public information. You should exercise caution when deciding to disclose personal information in these public areas. Where to Direct Questions About WatersideMarina.com's Privacy Policy . If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or the practices described herein, you may contact: Waterside Marina Revisions to This Policy : WatersideMarina.com reserves the right to revise, amend, or modify this policy, our Terms of Service and our other policies and agreements at any time and in any manner.
