From LearnOutLoud
OUR PRIVACY POLICY
At LearnOutLoud.com we are firmly committed to the privacy of our customers. This privacy policy details what information we collect from users and why, as well as how we securely store personal customer information. By using the LearnOutLoud.com site you agree to the Privacy Policy detailed below.
Sharing
We do not share our information with anyone, and we do not use your information for any purpose other than that for which it was collected originally. The demographic and personal information we gather is strictly for our use to communicate with our customers based on more personalized areas of interests.
How We Protect Personal Customer Information
All personal customer information we collect is stored on our secured server. You can recognize when information you are entering in is secured when you see a lock in bottom right of your browser and when you see that the beginning of the URL you are on is https:// as opposed to the normal http://. Customer information you enter is immediately transferred to our secured server utilizing Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption. This information is encrypted through Verisign's 128-bit SSL encryption, an industry leader in e-commerce encryption technology.
Information We Collect
Anyone can set up an account with LearnOutLoud.com. By setting up an account you'll be able to purchase products, post in our forums, post reviews, create a Wishlist of products you'd like, and more. When registering for a new account we collect a Username, Email address, password, and your first and last name. Your Email address & password are used for logging in to the site. Your username can also be used to log in and it is displayed when posting in our forums and your real name can be displayed when you post reviews.
If you forget your password you can click the Forgot Password? link in the Log In box located in the left bar of each page and then enter in your Username and Email address so a temporary password can be sent to your Email account. We will also use your Email address for providing you with your order confirmation and other order updates. When registering you will have the option to receive occasional Emails from us including coupons and our E-Magazine. You may opt out of our e-mail list during registration or at any other time thereafter.
You will also be registered for our Community Forums. By default, adminstrators of the forum can send you Emails but other users cannot. You can modify forum Email options through the "My LOL" link in the forums.
When you shop with us we collect your billing address, shipping address, and phone number. To place an order you must enter your credit card information, and it is instantly sent to our payment processor for immediate order confirmation. To protect the security of your credit card information we do not store any credit card-related information on our servers. Therefore you will have to re-enter it each time you place an order. In addition to securely storing your customer information we also securely store your order history. By logging into your account you'll be able to change your customer information and review the details of your orders. All this information is stored on our secured server.
