This site is
owned and operated by Radical Transformation LLC. Your privacy on
the Internet is of the utmost importance to us. At Radical
Transformation LLC, we want to make your experience online
satisfying and safe.
Because we
gather certain types of information about our users, we feel you
should fully understand our policy and the terms and conditions
surrounding the capture and use of that information. This privacy
statement discloses what information we gather and how we use it.
INFORMATION
RADICAL TRANSFORMATION LLC GATHERS AND TRACKS
Radical
Transformation LLC gathers two types of information about users:
-
Information that users provide through optional, voluntary
submissions. These are voluntary submissions to receive our
electronic newsletters, to participate in our message boards or
forums, to email a friend, and from participation in polls and
surveys:
-
Information Radical Transformation LLC gathers through
aggregated tracking information derived mainly by tallying page
views throughout our sites. This information allows us to better
tailor our content to readers' needs and to help our advertisers
and sponsors better understand the demographics of our audience.
Because Radical Transformation LLC derives its revenue mainly
from sponsorships and advertising, providing such aggregated
demographic data is essential to keeping our service free to
users. Under no circumstances does Radical Transformation LLC
divulge any information about an individual user to a third
party.
Radical
Transformation LLC Gathers User Information In The Following
Processes:
Optional
Voluntary Information
We offer
the following free services, which require some type of voluntary
submission of personal information by users:
1.
Electronic newsletters policy (Dispatches)
We will
offer a free electronic newsletter to users. Radical Transformation
LLC gathers the email addresses of users who voluntarily subscribe.
Users may remove themselves from this mailing list by following the
link provided in every newsletter that points users to the
subscription management page. Users can also subscribe to the
newsletters at the time of registration.
2. Message
boards/forums policy
Users of
the site's Message Boards and Forums must register separately for
these services (both are free of charge) in order to post messages,
although they needn't register to visit the site. During
registration the user is required to supply a username, password,
and email address.
3. "E-mail
this to a friend" policy
Our site
users can choose to electronically forward a link, page, or
documents to someone else by clicking "e-mail this to a friend". The
user must provide their email address, as well as that of the
recipient. This information is used only in the case of transmission
errors and, of course, to let the recipient know who sent the email.
The information is not used for any other purpose.
4. Polling
We may
offer interactive polls to users so they can easily share their
opinions with other users and see what our audience thinks about
important issues. Opinions or other responses to polls are
aggregated and are not identifiable to any particular user. Radical
Transformation LLC may use a system to "tag" users after they have
voted, so they can vote only once on a particular question. This tag
is not correlated with information about individual users.
5. Surveys
Radical
Transformation LLC may occasionally conduct user surveys to better
target our content to our audience. We sometimes share the
aggregated demographic information in these surveys with our
sponsors, advertisers and partners. We never share any of this
information about specific individuals with any third party.
USE OF
INFORMATION
Radical
Transformation LLC uses any information voluntarily given by our
users to enhance their experience in our network of sites, whether
to provide interactive or personalized elements on the sites or to
better prepare future content based on the interests of our users.
As stated
above, we use information that users voluntarily provide in order to
send out electronic newsletters and to enable users to participate
in polls, surveys, message boards, and forums. We send out
newsletters to subscribers on a regular schedule (depending on the
newsletter), and occasionally send out special editions when we
think subscribers might be particularly interested in something we
are doing. Radical Transformation LLC never shares newsletter
mailing lists with any third parties, including advertisers,
sponsors or partners.
When we use
tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users
like and don't like based on traffic to those areas. We do not track
what individual users read, but rather how well each page performs
overall. This helps us continue to build a better service for you.
We track search terms entered in Search function as one of many
measures of what interests our users. But we don't track which terms
a particular user enters.
Radical
Transformation LLC creates aggregate reports on user demographics
and traffic patterns for advertisers, sponsors and partners. This
allows our advertisers to advertise more effectively, and allows our
users to receive advertisements that are pertinent to their needs.
Because we don't track the usage patterns of individual users, an
advertiser or sponsor will never know that a specific user clicked
their ad. We will not disclose any information about any individual
user except to comply with applicable law or valid legal process or
to protect the personal safety of our users or the public.
SHARING OF
THE INFORMATION
Radical
Transformation LLC uses the above-described information to tailor
our content to suit your needs and help our advertisers better
understand our audience's demographics. This is essential to keeping
our service free. We will not share information about individual
users with any third party, except to comply with applicable law or
valid legal process or to protect the personal safety of our users
or the public.
SECURITY
Radical
Transformation LLC operates secure data networks protected by
industry standard firewall and password protection systems. Our
security and privacy policies are periodically reviewed and enhanced
as necessary and only authorized individuals have access to the
information provided by our customers.
OPT-OUT
POLICY
We give
users options wherever necessary and practical. Such choices
include:
-
Opting not
to register to receive our electronic newsletters.
-
Opting not
to participate in certain interactive areas, which completely
alleviates the need to gather any personally identifiable
information from our users
