This information is used to contact the user about the services on
our site for which they have expressed interest. It is optional for
the user to provide demographic information (such as income level
and gender), and unique identifiers (such as social security number),
but encouraged so we can provide a more personalized experience on

shipping address) and financial information (like credit card number,
expiration date). This information is used for billing purposes and
to fill customer’s orders. If we have trouble processing an
order, this contact information is used to get in touch with the

Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user’s
hard drive containing information about the user. Usage of a cookie
is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while
on our site. Once the user closes their browser, the cookie simply
terminates. For instance, by setting a cookie on our site, the user
would not have to log in a password more than once, thereby saving
time while on our site. If a user rejects the cookie, they may still
use our site. The only drawback to this is that the user will be
limited in some areas of our site. For example, the user will not
be able to participate in any of our Sweepstakes, Contests or monthly
Drawings that take place. Cookies can also enable us to track and
target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our
site.
Some of our business partners use cookies on our site
(for example, advertisers). However, we have no access to or control
over these cookies.

the site, track user’s movement, and gather broad demographic
information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally
identifiable information.
Sharing
We will share aggregated demographic information with
our partners and advertisers. This is not linked to any personal
information that can identify any individual person.
We use an outside shipping company to ship orders,
and a credit card processing company to bill users for goods and
services. These companies do not retain, share, store or use personally
identifiable information for any secondary purposes.
We partner with another party to provide specific services.
When the user signs up for these services, we will share names, or
other contact information that is necessary for the third party to
provide these services.

information except for the purpose of providing these services.

Security
This web site. takes every precaution to protect our
users’ information. When users submit sensitive information
via the web site., your information is protected both online and off-line.
When our registration/order form asks users to enter
sensitive information (such as credit card number and/or social security
number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the
best encryption software in the industry - SSL. While on a secure
page, such as our order form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web
browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer
becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when you are just ‘surfing’.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information
online, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information
off-line. All of our users’ information, not just the sensitive
information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees
who need the information to perform a specific job (for example,
our billing clerk or a customer service representative) are granted
access to personally identifiable information. Our employees must
use password-protected screen-savers when they leave their desk.
When they return, they must re-enter their password to re-gain access
to your information. Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date
on our security and privacy practices. Every quarter, as well as
any time new policies are added, our employees are notified and/or
reminded about the importance we place on privacy, and what they
can do to ensure our customers’ information is protected. Finally,
the servers that we store personally identifiable information on
are kept in a secure environment, behind a locked cage.
If you have any questions about the security at our
web site., you can send an email to security@acrooms.com
Site and Service Updates
We also send the user site and service announcement
updates. Members are not able to un-subscribe from service announcements,
which contain important information about the service. We communicate
with the user to provide requested services and in regards to issues
relating to their account via email or phone.
Correction/Updating Personal Information:
If a user’s personally identifiable information
changes (such as your zip code), or if a user no longer desires our
service, we will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update or
remove that user’s personal data provided to us. This can usually
be done at the member information page or by emailing our Customer
Support.
Choice/Opt-out Our users are given the opportunity
to ‘opt-out’ of having their information used for purposes
not directly related to our site at the point where we ask for the
information. For example, our order form has an ‘opt-out’ mechanism
so users who buy a product from us, but don’t want any marketing
material, can keep their email address off of our lists.
Users who no longer wish to receive our newsletter
or promotional materials from our partners may opt-out of receiving
these communications by replying to unsubscribe in the subject line
in the email or email us at service@acrooms.com.
Users of our site are always notified when their information
is being collected by any outside parties. We do this so our users
can make an informed choice as to whether they should proceed with
services that require an outside party, or not.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will
post those changes on our Homepage so our users are always aware
of what information we collect, how we use it, and under circumstances,
if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personally
identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at
the time it was collected, we will notify users by way of an email.
Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information
in this different manner. We will use information in accordance with
the privacy policy under which the information was collected. |
