Cottonwood Limited LLC (“Company”) takes its web site users’ (“User”) on-line security and privacy seriously, so the Company makes reasonable efforts as described below to ensure its Users’ confidence and protect their on-line security and privacy.
Types of Information Collected.
Traffic Data Collected. The Company may automatically track and collect the following information when the User visits the Company’s web sites (“Web Sites”), including the User’s: (i) IP address; (ii) domain server; (iii) type of computer; (iv) type of web browser; (v) pages visited and duration; and (vi) search terms used to access the Web Sites (collectively “Traffic Data”). Traffic Data is anonymous information that does not personally identify the User but is helpful in the Company’s efforts to improve the User’s experience on the Web Site. The Company may also use “cookies,” which are small data files that may be stored on the User’s computer by the Web Site, and clear gifs, which are tiny graphics that are similar in function to cookies.
Personal Information Collected. In order for the User to access certain services that the Company offers via the Web Sites, the Company requires the User to provide information that personally identifies the User (“Personal Information”). Personal Information may include name, mailing and e-mail addresses, phone numbers, and other data about the User. If the User communicates with the Company by e-mail or completes online registration forms, surveys or other forms, any information provided in such communication may be collected as Personal Information.
Uses of Personal Information Collected. By providing Personal Information on or through the Web Sites, the User is authorizing the Company to use that Personal Information. The Company uses Personal Information (i) to respond to requests and inquiries, (ii) to send the User information about the Company, including its affiliates, its products or services, and (iii) to otherwise contact the User. The Company may provide User’s Personal Information to third parties providing the Company services related to the Web Sites or the services provided through them, solely for the purposes of the services provided by such third party. Except as described above and as may be required by court order, other governmental agency order or other official proceeding, the Company does not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties Personal Information unless the User provides consent in advance, where such consent must be in writing, which includes by email.
User Choice Regarding Collection, Use and Distribution of Traffic Data and Personal Information. The User may choose not to allow the use of cookies under Traffic Data. The User’s system settings control the use of cookies (not the Company). The User should check whether the User’s browser settings allow the User to refuse cookies. If the User does not accept cookies, the User will still have access to some, but not all, of the facilities of the Web Sites.
The User may choose not to provide the Company with any Personal Information. In such an event, the User can still access some of the Web Sites; however, the User will not be able to access and use those portions of the Web Sites that require the User’s Personal Information and the Company may not be able to respond to certain inquiries of the User.
Removing or Changing Personal Information. User may have any Personal Information submitted to Company through the Web Sites removed or modified by sending the Company notice of such request through the following link support@cottonwoodlimited.com or by sending a written request to the following address:
