We takes your electronic privacy seriously.
We do not share any personally identifiable information without
your explicit approval. And we do not send you email without
your approval.
Below are some of the reasons you should be
concerned about your online privacy, and more specifically,
how RADIO COMMUNICATIONS OF CHARLESTON INC collects and uses
information that we request from you and/or track about you.
GENERAL PRIVACY CONSIDERATIONS
The Internet is a powerful tool for gathering
and collating information about people - that is, personal
information about you that can be used to send you targeted
marketing and advertising email, and is potentially available
to thousands of people who may have no business knowing these
things about you.
Here's how it works. At the simplest level,
Web users provide certain personal information every time they
register at a Web site, or take part in a contest or sweepstakes,
or make a purchase online. On a more sophisticated level, computers
can monitor which sites users visit, which pages they view,
and on which ads they click. Even messages in chat rooms can
provide marketers with personal information about people.
This information lives - for all intents and
purposes, forever - in databases that are sometimes sold and
shared among marketers, advertisers, and others. There are
currently no laws or regulations in place that limit how people
can use personal information about you, so it is important
that you take responsibility for what information you give
away, and to whom. So read the Privacy Policies on Web sites
you visit, and before you fill in a form and click that "OK" or "Submit" button,
think about whether you want any particular information about
you to live indefinitely in databases.
Now that you know all that, below is an explanation
of the information RADIO COMMUNICATIONS OF CHARLESTON INC may
collect about you, what we do with it, and how you can control
our use of it.
KINDS OF INFORMATION
There are two kinds of information you need
to be aware of:
Aggregate Information: Aggregated information
is anonymous data that Web sites use to diagnose problems on
the sites' servers, administer the sites, and to help improve
the quality of the Web pages. It may be your domain name (i.e. "aol.com")
or your IP address. None of this identifies who you are in
any way by itself.
Personally Identifiable Information: This is
the kind of information that can be of concern. Anytime you
type in your name or email address or your snailmail address
with your age, occupation, income, and interests, for example,
you are giving away personally identifiable information. Some
of this is often necessary, as when you order products online
or sign up with an ISP or send an inquiry to a Web site. But
when it is not applicable to what you want from a Web site,
you should consider whether you want to answer these kinds
of questions.
When a user visits this site, his or her IP
address, browser type [Netscape or Internet Explorer, for example],
and a domain [i.e. "aol.com"] are collected in the background.
This information is used in the aggregate to help diagnose
problems with our servers, to administer the Web site, and
to gather broad demographic information. None of it is personally
identifiable information.
COOKIES
We use "cookies"
SURVEYS
In our surveys, we sometimes ask users for
contact information (like email addresses) and demographic
and profile information (like age and income level) which is
personally identifiable. This is how we may use that information:
To email users new information about us
To pass on to some of our partners or advertisers who may email
users promotional material
To pass on to some of our advertisers who may email users about
their products and services Users are told up front on the
information collection page how the information will be used
in that instance. Information not required will always be marked "optional" at
the point of collection, and there will always be a method
for users to "opt out" of being contacted by us or any third
parties on the page where the information is requested.
OPT OUT
We do not sell or otherwise share personally
identifiable information about individual users without the
prior approval of the user at the time of collection of the
information. At that point, the user has the opportunity to
indicate whether he or she would like to "opt out" of receiving
promotional and/or marketing information about products, services,
and offerings from RADIO COMMUNICATIONS OF CHARLESTON INC and/or
any third parties.
FEEDBACK AND EMAIL
On every page of our site, there is a link
to a "contact us" form for users of the Web site to comment,
complain, make suggestions, and ask questions. Full name and
email address are required on this form so that we may respond
in a timely manner when required. This information is not sold
or shared with any third parties, and is not used for any purpose
beyond answering the correspondence.
DELETING OR MODIFYING YOUR INFORMATION
We gives users the following options for removing
or modifying their personal information from our databases:
Send snailmail to:
Privacy Coordinator
RADIO COMMUNICATIONS OF CHARLESTON INC

GOOSE CREEK, SC 29445
Although it is not always possible to remove
or modify information in the databases, retaurantrow.com makes
its best effort to do so.
SECURITY OF PRIVATE INFORMATION
As hackers have proved worldwide, no computer
security system is entirely foolproof. The most any Web site
can do is make its best effort, which is what we do here at
RADIO COMMUNICATIONS OF CHARLESTON INC to protect your information
from loss, misuse, and alteration.

IF YOU HAVE MANAGED TO READ THIS FAR - WOW.
It's more than I would probably do, and I wrote the thing.
Basically, in short form, here's what it says:
Sometimes we want personal information from
you so that our partners and advertisers and even we at the
Web site can send you some material we think might be personally
interesting. We've got to pay for all this free stuff somehow.
But we promise to never be sneaky about it.
We always tell you up front when we want to ask you personal
questions. We always tell you what we're going to do with the
answers. And we always give you a method to say "no way." |
