What Information Do We Collect?
The goal of StarWarsToyMuseum.com is to be your favorite Star Wars destination on the Internet by providing you with the information, services and product offerings that are most relevant to you. To achieve this goal, we collect two types of information from you when you visit the Site: personally identifiable information you voluntarily choose to disclose, and aggregate information about your use of the site, which is automatically collected when you visit the Web site.
Personal Information You Choose to Provide
Personally identifiable information refers to information that tells us specifically who you are. Personal information is collected when you voluntarily choose to request information from a school that is listed on the site. As a site user, you are asked to provide certain basic information such as your name, current e-mail address and programs of interest. You may also provide additional personal information at your discretion. Further, if you choose to correspond with us through e-mail, we may retain the content of your e-mail messages together with your e-mail address and our responses.
How Do We Use The Personal Information That You Provide To Us?
Broadly speaking, your personal information is used to help match your interests with partners who provide the products and/or services you seek.
We also use personal information for purposes of providing customer service and making available other products and services to our customers and prospective customers. Occasionally, we may also use the information we collect to notify you about important changes to the website, new services and special offers we think you will find valuable.
Aggregate Information
Aggregate information refers to information your computer automatically provides to us and that cannot be tied back to you as a specific individual. Examples include referral data (the web sites you visited just before and just after the website) the date and time of your visits, the pages viewed, time spent at the website, browser and platform type (e.g., a Netscape browser on a Macintosh platform), and IP (Internet Protocol) addresses. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you surf the Web. When you request a page from our site, our server logs your IP address to create aggregate reports on user demographics and traffic patterns for advertisers and partners, and for purposes of system administration. This allows these parties to advertise more effectively and allows you to receive advertisements that are most relevant to your personal interests.
Cookies
StarWarsToyMuseum.com, along with thousands of other web sites, uses standard technologies, such as cookies and web server logs to enhance your web viewing experience. Cookies and web server logs automatically track certain information about you that is based upon your activity on the Site. A cookie is a small piece of data transferred from a web site to the hard drive of your computer so that the web site may track your activities on the site. Web server logs allow us to count how many people visit the website and also to evaluate the site's visitor capacity.
Each time you access the site, our server may deliver certain customized information to you based on the data stored in your cookies. Cookies allow us to determine which areas and features of our site are most popular by measuring user activity. The information in the cookies lets us trace the paths followed by users as they move from one page to another. Cookies let sites and advertisers "remember" users across pages of a site and across multiple visits to a site. This allows e-commerce and Internet advertising to: personalize features such as targeted news stories, provide shopping sessions and quick navigation across multiple zones of e-commerce sites, remember user names and passwords for future visits, control ad frequency or the number of times a user sees a given ad, and deliver advertisements targeted to a user's interests. Your computer may occasionally receive cookies from our advertisers. StarWarsToyMuseum.com does not control these cookies, and they are not subject to our Privacy Policy. You can disable cookies, but access to certain parts of the website may no longer be available to you.
Sharing Information With Co-Brand Service Providers
StarWarsToyMuseum.com offers a number of third party services from the site. If you choose to use these optional services, we may provide some of your personally identifiable information to the co-brand service provider offering such services. Conversely, the co-brand service provider may provide StarWarsToyMuseum.com with personal information about you.
Sharing Information With Affiliated Businesses, Strategic Partners, Subsidiaries, Advertisers, And Other Third Parties
We may enter into strategic marketing alliances with third parties, such as advertisers, businesses, strategic partners and subsidiaries, who may be given access to personal information, including your name, address and e-mail, for the purpose of providing you with information about products and services that may be of interest to you. Advertisers and other third parties may place cookies on your browser when you visit the site. StarWarsToyMuseum.com has no control over what third parties do with this information. Further, we cannot and do not make any representations about the practices and policies of these companies.
Information Collected In Ad Delivery
We may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads on our behalf.

Any information that these third parties collect via cookies and action tags is completely anonymous.

What About Other Web Sites Linked To Or From The website?
The links you find on StarWarsToyMuseum.com allow you to leave the site. Please be aware that once you leave the site and enter another website, or use certain services provided through the site, our Privacy Policy is no longer in effect. Your browsing and interaction on websites that have a link to the website, or any links contained in a linked site, is subject to that website's own rules and policies.

Tell A Friend
We take the privacy of our users very seriously, and as such, no information from the Tell-a-Friend link is logged at any time. Tell-a-Friend is a referral service in which e-mail addresses are used only to send this one-time message. The e-mail addresses are then automatically wiped from our system, and neither e-mail addresses nor names of either party are kept, stored or sold at any time. The e-mail sent is immediate, the information is not passed along to our server, and no data is kept for comparison purposes. Because of this, it is possible to receive more than one e-mail from our site, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. |
