Your privacy is important to us. The following is the
privacy policy of Rhythm and Grooves regarding the use of personal information
collected on the Rhythm and Grooves website you are visiting.
Users are not required to provide any personal information to access some free
sections of the site. However, for full access to the site and all of its
contents, or to receive one of our newsletters by email, it will be necessary to
provide some basic information about yourself such as your name, email address,
as well as other personal information. You may also be asked to create a
username and password for future access to the site.
If you purchase something through this site, you will also be asked to provide
credit card and other information. To preserve a secure environment, we use
standard 128 bit encryption technology, authentication and other measures to
protect your data (assuming your browser is equipped with this encryption
technology)
We limit access to personal information about you to employees and contractors
who we believe reasonably need to come into contact with that information to
provide products or services to you or in order to do their jobs. We have
physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards in place to protect personal
information about you. Nevertheless, although we use these techniques to protect
your privacy, we do not promise nor should you expect that your personal
information or private communications will always remain private in an online
environment.
The Rhythm and Grooves website will collect data automatically using small data
files called “cookies” that websites transmit and are stored on the user’s hard
drive. These files contain anonymous identifiers and are used to track visited
web pages. Cookies allow you to avoid signing in each time you access your
account from the same computer and to save customized personal settings. Your
web browser may be set to reject cookies or to ask permission from you before
accepting them.
Outside companies’ advertisements may be displayed on our website, and these
companies may set cookies on your computer. The use of these are subject to each
company’s own privacy policy, and not ours.
Anonymous information about our users in aggregate, such as a user’s status as
an investor or professional advisor, or other information you may provide as
part of the registration process, may be provided to our advertisers and
business partners so that appropriate advertisements can be displayed.
Your personal information will not be sold or shared with any company not
affiliated with Rhythm and Grooves, without your permission, with the following
exceptions:
- In response to subpoenas, court orders or legal process from law
enforcement agencies or to defend against legal claims;
- We provide information to investigate or prevent suspected illegal activities.
With your permission (through our “opt-in” messages on registration pages of
this site) we may send you email messages such as service announcements and
other event related messages, as well as our newsletter, but you will maintain
the right to change your “opt-in” status going forward through online
communications and/or other means through this web site.
CHANGES TO THIS POLICY: If our policy changes, we will post the new policy on
the Web site and changes will be made applicable within 24 hours. Please check
back often to review the latest changes.
