Review Vivid-Pix’s legal and privacy notices for details on how we collect, use and protect your personal information on the website.
Your use of and access to any website or software application (Vivid-Pix Property’) either (i) made available to you directly or indirectly from this website; or (ii) with a direct link to this privacy policy is subject to this privacy policy. This privacy policy explains the data that we collect and how we use it.
We respect your privacy. If you have any privacy concerns or questions about this privacy policy, you can contact us by email at: info@vivid-pix.com mailto:info@vivid-pix.com.
ABOUT US AND THIS POLICY
All references to “we”, “us” or “our” refer to (1) Vivid-Pix and/or one or more of its affiliates. This policy gives you the details of who we are and the details of our privacy policies, including: what data we collect about you when you use Vivid-Pix Property; what organization is collecting the information; how the information will be used or disclosed; what choices are available to you regarding collection and use of the data; what security measures are in place to protect your personal information; and how you can correct any inaccuracies in the information.
This policy may be amended from time to time without notice and it is your responsibility to read it carefully and review any changes that may have been made. Since changes will be posted on this page, we encourage you to check this page regularly.
For all users in locations other than in Europe, this policy, the processing of your online account data and any other data we collect shall be governed by the laws of the State of Georgia and shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in Fulton County, Georgia. For all users located in Europe, this policy, the processing of your online account data and any other data we collect is subject to any mandatory laws in the country in which the user resides.
YOUR INFORMATION: WHAT WE COLLECT, HOW WE COLLECT IT, AND HOW IT IS USED
In common with most other websites and on-line services, we collect certain data about your visit to the Vivid-Pix Properties. Any data we gather through your use of Vivid-Pix Property falls into three categories:
(1) Personal information that you supply to us, such as information you provide when you register (including your e-mail address), create an account, create a user name, complete a survey, enter a contest, or purchase products or services;
(2) Information that is collected as you use Vivid-Pix Property that becomes identified with your personal information; and
(3) Information that does not directly identify you and is collected as you use Vivid-Pix Property, including your IP address, and information gathered with the use of a “cookie” (cookies are discussed further below), and information related to searches or recommendations on Vivid-Pix Property. Such information collected includes, without limitation, which pages and content are browsed, interactions with advertising and content, and other data related to preferences and usage. We use this information to better provide products and services, including, without limitation, to better target advertising and content, and to generate statistics and reports. You may use certain Vivid-Pix Property without registering or creating an account. We may nonetheless build a history of your interactions with the Vivid-Pix Property even though we don’t know who you are. In respect of certain Vivid-Pix Properties which are products, Vivid-Pix may also employ update management software to collect installation and registry information from your computer, including product, version, build, language and original equipment manufacturer. Where you use multiple Vivid-Pix Properties, Vivid-Pix may combine or link information collected from various Vivid-Pix Properties and use it for the purposes outlined in this privacy policy.
Personal information
As is common across websites, to use certain features of Vivid-Pix Property we ask you to register, create an account, provide your full name and email address and create a password. Once you have created an account, we may ask you to fill out a form (all or portions of which may be included in your profile). When you create your profile, we may collect personal information about you, such as name, address, location, e-mail address, favorite travel locations, dive sites, etc. which will be stored in order to provide services to you and to conduct activities including, without limitation, using it to process your registration, maintain a profile about you, process your request to receive newsletters and email announcements, or to voluntarily participate in surveys or contests and/or to communicate with you about services and products we think may be of interest to you.
Vivid-Pix may allow you to set up profiles that may be viewed by other users of the Vivid-Pix Properties. To enrich your profile you may choose to include some personal information in your public profile so that other users can identify you. You should only include information in your public profile that you do not mind making publicly available without restriction.
To process your purchase orders we require your name, billing address, phone number, email address, physical address, credit card information and credit card security codes. We use this information to process your order and, if any questions arise, to contact you about your order. We may also use it to contact you about other products and services we feel may be of interest to you. In general Vivid-Pix will try to email you first but may phone or send an electronic message to you if you have provided these details and you consent to our so doing.
In respect of ‘Vivid-Pix’ branded Vivid-Pix Property, registering your product indicates that you have informed us of your interest in receiving offers and information from us and from third parties and we will contact you after registration unless you specify that you do not wish to receive such contact by notifying us at privacy@vivid-pix.com mailto:privacy@vivid-pix.com. For those who elect to receive such materials from third parties, Vivid-Pix may release personal information to those third parties. Information released may include your name, email address and other information supplied in the Vivid-Pix registration process.
Personal information is also used to provide personalized services to you, such as recommendations.
TRACKING INFORMATION – COOKIES, FLASH COOKIES , CLEAR GIFS, AND IP ADDRESSES
We store and track user information by using “cookies” and clear GIFs, which are also sometimes called web bugs or web beacons. Cookies alone do not tell us your e-mail address or other personal information. However, information provided through cookies may be associated with personal information if you provide this information to us by, for example, registering to use certain Vivid-Pix Properties. A cookie is data sent to your browser from a web server. It is stored on your computer and contains a unique identifier that allows our sites to recognize your computer. If you have an account with Vivid-Pix, a cookie on your computer lets us remember your user name and password so you don’t have to re-enter that information each time you visit the site. Another cookie is a Flash cookie that is embedded in the Adobe Flash Player, which is a web tool that allows rapid development of dynamic content. Adobe Flash cookies may be used in certain situations where we use Flash to provide some content such as video clips or animation and to remember settings, preferences and usage. They are similar to ‘browser’ cookies (as described above) but are managed through a different interface than the one provided by your web browser. The use of cookies is standard on the Internet and you will find they are currently used by many major websites. You can set your web browser preferences to alert you when a cookie is sent to your hard drive, or to refuse cookies altogether. We do not require you to use cookies, but please keep in mind that certain features and services will not function properly if you set your browser to refuse cookies.
“Clear GIFs” are very small image files that we may place on web pages and within web-based email newsletters or other communication we send. Clear GIFs let us accurately count the number of users who have visited specific pages and the number of times those pages are accessed. Clear GIFs also let us know how many people opened an email.
We may use cookies, clear GIFs and related tracking technology to collect information such as your browser type, the type of operating system you use, the domain name of your Internet service provider, IP address, pages visited on the site, services used and how you have used them.
We may provide data about our users, traffic patterns, products, services and site information to third-parties (such as vendors, advertisers and our business partners), but we will use reasonable efforts to provide it in a form that does not directly identify you.
Find out how to disable/enable browser cookies by clicking on the “Manage Cookies” section of the Interactive Advertising Bureau website on the following link http://www.allaboutcookies.org/. You may access and manage Flash management tools such as flash cookies from Adobe’s web site directly at http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager06.html.
Email addresses are used for identification, inviting new friends to Vivid-Pix Properties, general communication, order processing and to send notifications to you. Users may be able to invite friends to join certain Vivid-Pix Properties by sending invitation emails via our automated invitation system. Where permitted by applicable law, Vivid-Pix stores these email addresses so that the respondents may be added to a friend list of the member sending the invitations and to establish relationships between users.
WHICH ORGANIZATIONS ARE COLLECTING THE INFORMATION?
When you provide information to Vivid-Pix, that information is collected and maintained either by Vivid-Pix or by an authorized agent or contractor of Vivid-Pix such as web hosting companies, customer care service providers, and transaction processing service providers, unless specifically stated otherwise at the point of collection.
ADVERTISING
We may use your personal information and non-personal information to serve ads to you via Vivid-Pix Property as well as to provide you with promotions, products and services. We may also use third-party advertising companies and other business partners to serve ads on Vivid-Pix Property and provide you with promotions, products and services. These third-party advertising companies and our business partners may be located throughout the world. These third-party advertising companies and business partners may receive information relating to the advertisements that they serve you including, without limitation, date and time of ad shown, the banner ad that was shown and your IP address and your interactions with such advertisements. These third-party advertising companies and business partners may use cookies, clear GIFs and anonymous information about your visits to Vivid-Pix Property and other websites to measure and improve the effectiveness of their ads, promotions, products and services. This information may also be used for online preference and other targeted marketing purposes. The information received by these third-party advertising companies and business partners is subject to the privacy policies of these third-party advertising companies and business partners. We may be given access to this information by these third-party advertising companies and business partners which we may use for purposes including, without limitation, to better target advertising and content to you and to generate statistics and reports that help us develop our products and services.
With your consent (as indicated when you set up your account) we may make certain information about you (including personal information, where you consent) available to third-party advertising companies and other business partners under agreements between us and those third-party advertising companies and business partners. The third-party advertising companies and business partners will use that information to target advertising to you or provide and market promotions, products and services to you. You may withdraw your consent to our providing your personal information to advertising companies and business partners at any time by adjusting your preferences in the preference page of the relevant Vivid-Pix Property. If you do so we will not provide your personal information from the relevant Vivid-Pix Property to third party advertisers or business partners from the time you opt out. However where permitted by applicable law, we may still provide them with information that does not directly identify you from which they may send you targeted advertisements.
SECURITY
We use commercially reasonable efforts to safeguard the confidentiality of your personal information. However, due to the design of the Internet, ever-changing technology and other factors outside of our control, we cannot guarantee that communications between you and our servers will be free from unauthorized access by third parties. We will have no liability for disclosure of personal information due to errors in transmission or unauthorized or unlawful acts of third parties.
You are responsible for the security of your Vivid-Pix user name, ID and password. Please take care when using and storing them.
COMMITMENT TO CHILDRENS’ PRIVACY
Protecting the privacy of children is important to us. For that reason, none of our Vivid-Pix Properties are directed at anyone under 13 and they are not structured specifically to attract anyone under 13. We also do not collect or maintain personal information from those users who we actually know are under 13. Should we learn or be notified that we have collected information from users under the age of 13, we will immediately delete such personal information.
CHANGING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION & PREFERENCES
Your Right to Choose
When you register to access certain Vivid-Pix Properties, you can let us know that you do not wish to receive announcements from us by opting out at the time you give us your personal information. You may also later opt out of providing us personal identifiable information by changing your preferences in the set up areas of the Vivid-Pix Properties or changing the necessary settings in your profile. If you opt out or do not provide your personal information then some services and features (such as personal information services, recommendations and tracking of ratings and likes and dislikes) may not be available to you or may be deleted. All newsletters and email announcements from us will contain an unsubscribe link that also allows you to opt out at any time from these messages.
