Cookies

A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's hard drive containing information related to the user's visit to our site. Usage of a cookie on the altaVENTE web site is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information. Two types of cookies are used by the altaVENTE.COM.

  • Session level cookies: These cookies are used to maintain a session for a customer during a visit to our site. Once the user closes their browser, the cookie simply terminates. It is not persistently traceable, or connected to personally identifying information.
  • User preference cookies: These cookies are used to tune a number of web site functions to a user's tastes; for example, to indicate whether a user last selected our basic or advanced product search mode. These do not contain personally identifiable information, and are simply used by an individual web page to remember how the user adjusted settings on that page.

altaVENTE only uses these cookies to facilitate the operation of the site; they are not and will not be used for any other purpose, and no data related to those will be made available to any third party now or in the future.

Log Files

We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer 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 Netbanx credit card processing to bill users for our subscription service. Netbanx do not retain share, store or use personal information for any secondary purposes.

Links

This web site may contain links to other sites. Please be aware that we [altaVENTE Security Limited] 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.

Security

This website takes every precaution to protect our users' information. When users submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and off-line.

All access to our site is, by default, encrypted and protected with the best encryption software in the industry - SSL. On our site 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'. Users may opt out of SSL if there is a reason it cannot be used in their location, but the default for all usage of our site is for access to be SSL encrypted.

While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information in transit to the customer, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information outside of our web-site as well. All customer data is stored in database servers that cannot route traffic outside our internal network, and have no access to the public internet. Physical access to our servers is restricted; the servers are located in a datacenter only accessible to designated IT staff and properly locked and off-limits to visitors.

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.
