We do share aggregated demographic information with our partners and advertisers. This is not linked to any personally identifiable information.
We do not share personal information with third parties except the personal information disclosed to Private Media Group, with European located offices at Carretera de Rubi nº 22, 08190 Sant Cugat del Valles (Barcelona- Spain), as publisher of this Website, and the other companies of the Group who may offer products or services for adults in which we believe you may be interested.
We also share information we collect with third party service providers to manage certain aspects of the services we provide, such as maintaining our servers and processing or fulfilling orders for products and services you purchase through the websites.
Sharing
Third Party Intermediaries
We sometimes 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.
Service Providers
We sometimes partner with other third parties to provide specific services. When the user signs up for these particular services, we share names, or other contact information that is necessary for the third party to provide these services. These third parties are not allowed to use personally identifiable information except for the purpose of providing these services.
Business Transitions
In the event Coldfair goes through a business transition, such as a merger, being acquired by another company, or selling a portion of its assets, users' personal information will, in most instances, be part of the assets transferred.
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 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 and promotional communications may opt-out of receiving these communications by replying to unsubscribe in the subject line in the email or the user may contact us by email at support@privateCS.com to opt-out.
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 or not they should proceed with services that require an outside party.
Links
This Web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we, Coldfair, are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every Web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Web site.
Surveys & Contests
From time-to-time our site requests information from users via surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information. The requested information typically includes contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as postal code). Contact information will be to notify the winners and award prizes. Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site. Users' personally identifiable information is not shared with third parties unless we give prior notice and choice. Though we may use an intermediary to conduct these surveys or contests, they may not use users' personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.
Tell-A-Friend
If a user elects to use our referral
service for informing a friend about our site, we ask
them for the friend's name and email address. Coldfair
will automatically send the friend a one-time email
inviting them to visit the site. Coldfair stores this
information for the sole purpose of sending this one-time
email and tracking the success of our referral program.
The friend may contact Coldfair at
support@privateCS.com
to request the removal of this information from our
database.
Chat Rooms
Please keep in mind that whenever
you voluntarily disclose personal information online
- for example, through e-mail, or in chat areas - that
information can be collected and used by others. In
short, by posting personal information online that is
publicly accessible, you may receive unsolicited messages
from other parties in return.
Security
This Web site takes every precaution
to protect our users' information. When users submit
sensitive information via the Web site, their 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 users 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 user 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 users' information is protected. Finally,
the servers that store personally identifiable information
are in a secure environment, behind a locked cage.
If users have any questions about the
security at our Web site, users can send an email to
support@privateCS.com
Supplementation of Information
In order for this Web site to properly fulfill its obligation
to users it is necessary for us to supplement the information
we receive with information from 3rd party sources.
Address Verification
ID/Address verification is necessary
in the case of returned packages, replacements and credit
card payments for certain countries (countries specified
in shop). We verify by contacting the customer.
Correcting/Updating/Deleting/Deactivating Personal Information
If a user's personally identifiable
information changes (such as zip code, phone, email
or postal address), or if a user no longer desires our
service, we provide a way to correct, update or delete/deactivate
users' personally identifiable information. This can
be done by emailing our Customer Support at
support@privateCS.com
