Imaginova Privacy Statement

"Anonymous Information" consists of non-personally-identifiable data, such as your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address or domain, or information about your usage of one or more of our Sites that is used for administrative purposes only. For example, an IP address is a unique string of numbers that is assigned to your computer by your Internet Service Provider. Web servers automatically identify your computer by its IP address. We may collect our users’ IP addresses for such purposes as to help diagnose problems with our servers and to report aggregate information to our advertisers, corporate affiliates and consultants, and to third parties that perform particular services on our behalf. We may also collect IP addresses as a security precaution when customers initiate orders through our Sites, because although IP addresses themselves are non-personally identifiable, they are linked to information about you that is personally identifiable.

We may also use the information linked to IP addresses to ban users who violate our Terms and Conditions of use.

"Personally Identifiable Information" is any information that personally identifies you, such as your name, street address, email address, telephone number or credit card number. We collect such information when, for example, you enter a contest, subscribe to our email newsletter, participate in other interactive online activities such as forums, or order merchandise through one of our Sites.

NOTE: DO NOT INCLUDE ANY CREDIT CARD INFORMATION IN ANY EMAIL COMMUNICATION. IF YOU DO, WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT YOUR INFORMATION WILL REMAIN SECURE, AND WE THEREFORE WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY LOSSES THAT YOU MAY SUFFER AS A RESULT.

Use of “Cookies”
Our Sites use “cookies” – data that is transferred from our Sites to your hard drive for record-keeping purposes – to keep track of your shopping cart when you order merchandise through our Sites, and to make sure you do not see the same advertisements repeatedly. We also use cookies to deliver content specific to your interests and to save your password so you do not have to re-enter it each time you visit one or more of our Sites. Some of the advertisements appearing on the Sites are delivered by our third-party ad networks, such as 24/7 and DoubleClick. In the course of serving advertisements to the Sites, such ad networks may place or recognize a unique "cookie" in your browser's cache, and may use Anonymous Information (including date/time of the banner ad displayed, the ad that was displayed and the IP address of the visitor) about your visits to this and other Web sites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you and to collect statistical information.

Disclosure of Information through Business Transfers
As we continue to develop our business, we may buy, merge or partner with other companies or businesses, and in so doing, acquire customer information. In such transactions, user information may be among the transferred assets. Similarly, in the event that a portion or substantially all of Imaginova's assets are sold or transferred to a third party, customer information (including your email address) would likely be one of the transferred business assets.

Our Sites have reasonable security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. Security of information communicated by or to us over the Internet is of utmost concern to us; however, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.

For that reason, to protect your privacy, please do not use email to communicate information to us that you consider confidential. While we strive to protect your personal information, Imaginova cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or through this our Sites.
