Privacy Policy
General Information
Overview
Thank you for visiting my web site. At My Weight Trainer.com, protecting my users' privacy and security is a top priority. As such, I’ve adopted the following policy to advise you of how I gather and use data, and your choices regarding the use of your personal information. Please read this privacy policy before using the site or submitting any personal information. By using the site, you are accepting the practices described in this privacy policy.
Scope of Policy
This Policy applies only to the My Weight Trainer.com web site. It does not apply to other companies' or organizations' web sites to which I link. You should carefully review the privacy policies of those web sites in order to determine how they treat your personal information.
Information gathered from My Weight Trainer.com's users
Currently the following information is gathered from visitors to this web site:IP Addresses
As do most web sites, I collect and analyze traffic on this web site by logging the IP addresses of our visitors. IP addresses are unique numeric identifiers that are assigned to each computer accessing the Internet. An IP address, by itself, cannot identify you personally. However, when combined with other information provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP), your IP address can be used to identify the computer originating a message.
My Weight Trainer.com's uses of gathered information
IP Addresses
IP addresses are only used in aggregate for purposes of analyzing traffic of visitors to this web site, so that I might better understand where my visitors are coming from, what pages they're looking at, how many visitors I have, and how long they stay.
Disclosure Exceptions
Notwithstanding the above policies, I reserve the right to disclose your personal information to appropriate third-parties if we are required to do so by law or we believe that such action is necessary:
- To comply with legal process such as a search warrant, subpoena or court order;
- To protect the company's rights and property;
- To investigate reports of users sending material using a false e-mail address or users sending harassing, threatening, or abusive messages;
- To protect against misuse or unauthorized use of our web.
- During emergencies, such as when I believe someone's physical safety is at risk.
Other Matters
Protection For Children - COPPA Compliance
I am committed to protecting the privacy and rights of children online. I believe that children should be able to use the Internet in a safe, productive, and efficient manner and should be afforded the highest protection available with respect to their personal information. To that end, I have made it my policy to not collect any individually identifiable information from users whom I know are under the age of 13.
The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA") imposes certain requirements upon web sites and online services that are directed toward children. To learn more about COPPA, click here for the Federal Trade Commission COPPA Web Site.
Changes to the Privacy Policy
I will occasionally update this Privacy Policy in response to changing business circumstances and legal developments. I encourage you to periodically review this Policy to be informed of how I’m using and protecting your information.
Use Common Sense in All Your Online Activities
Even the best policy can't protect your online privacy and security in all circumstances. Unscrupulous advertisers, hackers, and scam artists are constantly searching the Internet looking for new targets. Your best protection is to understand the limits to privacy on the Internet and use common sense in all of your on-line activities.
Be aware that e-mail is an inherently insecure form of communication. Remember that third parties are sometimes able to illegally intercept your unencrypted messages. Anytime you visit a chat room or post a message to an on-line bulletin board, your e-mail address can be accessed by advertisers looking to compile lists for unsolicited commercial e-mail (also known as spam). Be sure that you only disclose your e-mail address in circumstances in which it is safe to do so.
Beware of scams in which persons unknown to you request your screen name, password, or credit card information. Make sure you verify the identity of anyone asking for personal information. Always monitor your children's on-line activities and educate them as to the rules for safe Internet use.
