CarolSloop.com recognizes the importance of
protecting the privacy of certain information ("Information")
collected about our customers and prospective customers (referred
to as "Customers," "you" or "your").
This privacy statement discloses what information we gather, how
we use it, and how to correct or change it. It is our intention
to give you an understanding about how we collect your Information
and the use we make of it in the course of our business.
How do we collect Information?
Optional registration
We collect information by specifically requesting it from you.
Generally this occurs when you register at a site or request
information or a service. Usually, we use your information to
operate the site and to deliver services. We also use your information
to inform you about other products or services available.
Use of Internet Protocol ("IP") Addresses :
An IP address is a unique number that is automatically assigned
to your computer whenever you're surfing the Internet so that
your computer can be identified by the main computers, known
as "Web servers," that "serve up" Web pages.
We collect IP addresses for the purposes of system administration
and to audit the use of our site. When Customers request pages
from our website, our servers log the Customers' IP addresses.
We do not normally link IP addresses to anything personally
identifiable, which means that a Customer's session will be
logged, but the Customer will remain anonymous to us. We can
and will use IP addresses to identify a Customer when we feel
it is necessary to enforce compliance with our site terms of
use or terms of service or to protect our service, site, customers
or others.
Use Of Cookies
Cookies are small pieces of information that a Web site sends
to yours computer for record-keeping purposes, which information
is stored in a file on your computer. Cookies make Web surfing
easier for you by saving your preferences so that we can use
the saved information to facilitate your use of our Web site
when you return to the site. Cookies do not tell us your individual
identity unless you have chosen to provide it to us. We never
save passwords or credit card information in cookies. The use
of cookies is an industry standard, and as such, you'll find
that most major Web sites use them. By showing how and when
Customers use a site, cookies help us see which areas are popular
and which are not. Many improvements and updates to the site
are based on such data as total number of visitors and pages
viewed. This information is most easily tracked with cookies.
We use the information from cookies to provide services better
tailored to our Customers' needs. Most cookies expire after
a defined period of time, or you can delete your cookie file
at any time. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies.
You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or indicate
when a cookie is being sent. However, note that some parts
of website will not function properly or may be considerably
slower if you refuse cookies. For example, without cookies,
you will not be able to set personalized preferences, and/or
may have difficulty completing marketing transactions. We have
two primary uses for its cookies. First, we use them to specify
a Customer's preferences. For example, Customers can specify
keywords across several categories or markets so you don't
have to tell us repeatedly about certain features in the home
you are seeking. Second, we use cookies to track Customers'
Web site usage trends and patterns. This helps us understand
our Customers' needs better and improve areas of that our Customers
find valuable. While both of these activities depend on the
use of cookies, you have the option of disabling the cookies
via your browser preferences.
With whom do we share my Information?
As a general rule we will not disclose any specific personal
information that you submit to us about you ("Personal
Information") in a manner that connects you with the Personal
Information, except when we have your permission or under special
circumstances, such as when we believe in good faith that the
law requires it.
Third Party & Aggregate Data:
From time to time, you may be offered the opportunity to receive
materials or special offers from third parties. If you opt
to receive information from these third parties, we will (with
your permission) share your name and e-mail address with such
third parties.
Other: We may also disclose account Information in special cases
when we have reason to believe that disclosing this Information
is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against
someone who may be violating our terms of use or terms of service,
or may be causing injury to or interference (either intentionally
or unintentionally) with any of our rights or property, other
Customers, or anyone else.
How can you control the usage of Information?
In case you change your mind or some Personal Information changes
(such as your zip code or e-mail address), we will try to provide
a way to correct, update or remove the Personal Information
that you give us. We also give you the opportunity to control
the communications we direct to you. We offer Customers the
opportunity to "opt out" of having Personal Information
shared. If a Customer wishes to update Personal Information
or objects to any usage provided herein for any reason, he/she
may e-mail the requested change to: support@carolsloop.com.

and/or outside our service. For example, if you "click" on
a link, the "click" may transfer you off the CarolSloop.com

collect data, or solicit Information.

not responsible for their contents or the hyperlinks or advertising

to these sites do not imply any endorsement of the material on
such sites or any association with their operators. Our policy
does not extend to anything that is inherent in the operation

be collected and used by people you don't know. While we strive
to protect their Customers' information and privacy, we cannot
guarantee the security of any information you disclose online,

Is my Information secure from others using your site?
The importance of security of all information associated with
our Customers is an important concern to us. We exercise care
in providing secure transmission of your information from your
computer to our servers. Unfortunately, no data transmission
over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a
result, while we strive to protect your information, we can't
ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit
to us or from our online products or services, and you do so
at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we use
industry standard efforts to safeguard the confidentiality
of your information, such as firewalls and Secure Socket Layers.
However, "perfect security" does not exist on the
Internet.
