General Information Collection and Use
Soulgarden.tv is the sole owner of the information collected on the
Website. We will not sell, share or rent this information to others
in ways different from what is disclosed in this policy, without
first obtaining your consent. Generally, we request this
information when registering visitors to the Website or when
visitors to the Website and/or registered users request a
particular service. This information collected is used to register
the user for the selected service and to contact the user about
such service (e.g. e-mail address). Information required to be
submitted to become a registered user may include name, e-mail
address, license number and street address (as well as other types
of information).
Personal Information Collected Through Access to Private &
Premium Services
All personal information provided to Soulgarden.tv through your
access to the premium services that the site offers – SG Elite
readings, Soul Nirvana memberships, donations – is 100%
confidential. We may contact you using this information in the
normal course of business, to notify you of upcoming specials, to
improve our customer service, or to investigate potential fraud and
violations of our Terms and Conditions.
Cookies
A "cookie" is a piece of data stored on a user's hard drive
containing information about the user. As part of offering and
providing personalized services, we may use cookies in an effort to
save you time while on our Website. If a user rejects the cookie,
he or she may still have limited use of the Website. Generally we
use cookies to:
• Remind us who you are and to access your account information
• Track and target the interests of our users to enhance the
experience on our Website
• Estimate our audience size and measure certain traffic
patterns
IP Addresses
Every computer connected to the Internet is given an IP address.
We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the Website,
track users' movement and gather broad demographic information for
aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally
identifiable information, and our web servers do not record the
e-mail addresses of our visitors.
Links
This Website may contain links to other websites. Please be aware
that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other
websites, as this privacy policy applies solely to the Website. We
encourage our users to remain vigilant when they leave our Website
and to read the privacy statements of each and every website that
collects personally identifiable information.
Surveys
From time-to-time our Website may request information from users
via surveys. Participation in these surveys, to the extent we run
any, is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice
whether or not to disclose this information. Information requested
may include contact information (such as name and shipping address)
and demographic information (such as zip code and age level).
Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or
improving the use and satisfaction of the Website.
Security
This Website takes numerous precautions to protect our users'
information. When users submit sensitive information via the
Website (e.g. credit card information), such information is
protected both on- and offline. Using Paypal.com, we encrypt
certain sensitive information using Secure Socket Layer (SSL)
technology to ensure that our visitors' information is safe as it
is sent over the Internet to our server. SSL works by using a
private key to encrypt data that is transferred over the SSL
connection. In addition, all of our users' sensitive information is
restricted in our offices. While Soulgarden.tv employs commercially
reasonable security measures to protect our data and seeks to
partner with companies which do the same, we cannot absolutely
guarantee the security of any data transmission over the Internet
or any wireless network. Unfortunately, no data transmission over
the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100%
secure, and we therefore are not responsible for any breach of
security or for any actions of any third parties that may receive
any such information.
Legal Disclosure
We will not disclose any of your personally identifiable
information except when we have your permission or under special
circumstances (such as when we believe the law requires it). We may
disclose or share aggregated demographic information with certain
partners, affiliates and advertisers, however, except as described
above, this is not linked to any personal information that can
identify any individual person or company. In addition,
Soulgarden.tv may disclose account or other personal information
when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is
necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against
someone who may be causing injury to or interference with
Soulgarden.tv’s rights or property, other Website users or anyone
else that could be harmed by such activities.
Soulgarden.tv may also release personal information to appropriate
governmental authorities under the following circumstances:
• Where release is required by law (for example, a subpoena) or
regulation, or is requested by a government agency conducting
investigations or proceedings
• Where our records indicate a company may be engaged in fraudulent
activity or other deceptive practices that a governmental agency
should be made aware of
As with any other business, it is possible that Soulgarden.tv in
the future could merge with or be acquired by another company. If
such an acquisition occurs, the successor company would have access
to the information maintained by Soulgarden.tv, including customer
account information, but would continue to be bound by this Privacy
Policy unless and until it is amended as described herein.
Correction/Updating Personal Information
If your personally identifiable information changes at any time,
please send an e-mail to livelovebe@soulgarden.tv.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those
changes under the appropriate link on the home page of our Website
so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how
we use it and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. The
new terms shall be effective immediately upon being posted on the
Website. It is the responsibility of each user to review the latest
terms from time to time, and if any user does not agree with any
updates to the privacy policy, such user should immediately cease
use of the Website and any purchased services.
