Privacy Policy
Your privacy is very important to us. We want to make your experience on the
Internet as enjoyable and rewarding as possible, and we want you to use the
Internet’s vast array of information, tools, and opportunities with complete
confidence.
We have created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to
privacy and security. This Privacy Policy describes how 700-GMAT Club collects
information from all end users of our Internet services (the “Services”)-those
who access some of our Services but do not have accounts (“Visitors”) as well
as those who may purchase Products and/or pay a monthly service fee to
subscribe to the Service (“Members”)-what we do with the information we
collect, and the choices Visitors and Members have concerning the collection
and use of such information. We request that you read this Privacy Policy
carefully.
Personal Information 700-GMAT Club Collects and How It Is Used
Introduction. 700-GMAT Club 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 Products and 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: Members may be asked to provide certain personal information
when they sign up for our Products or Services including name, address,
telephone number, billing information (such as a credit card number), and the
type of personal computer being used to access the Services. The personal
information collected from Members during the registration process is used to
manage each Member’s account (such as for billing purposes). This information
is not shared with third parties, unless specifically stated otherwise or in special
circumstances.
However, in instances where 700-GMAT Club and a partner jointly promote our
Services, we may provide the partner certain personal information, such as the
name, address, and username of persons who subscribed to the Services as a
result of the joint promotion for the sole purpose of allowing us and the partner
to assess the results of the promotion.
In this instance, personal information may not be used by the partner for any
other purpose. We may also generate non-identifying and aggregate profiles
from personal information Members provide during registration (such as the
total number, but not the names, of Members). As explained in more detail
below, we may use this aggregated and non-identifying information to sell
advertisements that appear on the Services.
700-GMAT Club Partners and Sponsors: Some products and services may be
offered to Visitors and Members in conjunction with an affiliate, independent
contractor seller or non-affiliated partner. To provide Visitors and Members
some of these products and services, the partner may need to collect and
maintain personal information. In these instances, you will be notified before
any such data is collected or transferred and may decide not to use that particular
service or feature.
Additionally, our partners may have advertisements or co-branded Web Pages
that are cosponsored by an affiliate, independent contractor seller, or nonaffiliated
partner. 700-GMAT Club may share non-identifying and aggregate
information (except as described above), but not personal information, with
such partners in order to administer the co-branded products or services
offered. Online Shopping: At some Web sites, you can purchase products and services
or register to receive materials, such as a newsletter, catalog or new product
and service updates. In many cases, you may be asked to provide contact
information, such as your name, address, email address, phone number, and
credit/debit card information.
If you complete an order for someone else, such as an online gift order sent
directly to a recipient, you may be asked to provide information about the
recipient, such as the recipient’s name, address, and phone number.
700-GMAT Club has no control over the third parties’ use of any personal information
you provide when placing such an order. Please exercise care when doing so.
If you order services or products directly from 700-GMAT Club we will use the
personal information you provide only to process that order. We do not share
this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete
that order.
Online Advertisements: 700-GMAT Club may display our online advertisements. In
those cases we 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 or joint ventures. For instance, an
advertiser or joint venture company tells us the audience they want to reach
and provides us an advertisement tailored to the audience. Based upon the
aggregated and non-identifying information we have collected, we may then
display or send the advertisement to the intended audience. 700-GMAT Club does
not share personal information about its Visitors or Members with these
advertisers or joint venture companies.
Responses to Email Inquiries: When Visitors or Members send email inquiries to
700-GMAT Club, the return email address is used to answer the email inquiry we
receive. 700-GMAT Club 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 products and 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 may take the information we receive from individuals responding to our
Customer Surveys and combine (or aggregate) it with the responses of other
customers we may have, 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 700-GMAT Club’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, we 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: credit agencies, collection agencies, merchant
database agencies, law enforcement, or to satisfy laws, such as the Electronic
Communications Privacy Act, the Child Online 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 Acceptable Use Policy or Terms Of Service, or other user
policies; to operate the Services properly; or to protect 700-GMAT Club and our
Members.
