TravellersMART’s Privacy
Practices
TravellersMART has created this privacy statement in order to
demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy. The following discloses our
information gathering and dissemination practices for TravellersMART’s
Web sites.
TravellersMART publishes various e-mail newsletters. Users can sign up
for newsletters from our home page by providing their e-mail address,
country and zip code. This information will not be shared with third
parties. Recipients can edit their personal information or manage
newsletter subscriptions by visiting the edit profile page. Information
on how to unsubscribe is also included in every newsletter.
TravellersMART uses cookies to deliver content specific to your
interests. The cookie is a small text file that resides on your hard
drive. It is used to retrieve stored information that you knowingly
provided us such as name, e-mail address and zip code in order to
personalize your use of TravellersMART’s Web sites. TravellersMART also
works with third parties with whom we have a service agreement
(“Service Providers”) who use cookies to aid in the reporting of
aggregate site usage statistics for TravellersMART’s Web sites. Such
statistics are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Some TravellersMART advertisers use “view-through” pixels to track the
effectiveness of the promotions they run on TravellersMART. Such pixels
lead to cookies being placed on your computer by these advertisers.
TravellersMART does not have control over these 3rd party cookies, and
cannot access any personally identifiable information about you as a
result of these cookies.
TravellersMART tracks individual user response (clicks) on offers on
its Web sites. This information is used to better customize content and
advertising for you in the future. Individual user click behavior is
not shared with third parties in ways other than disclosed in this
privacy statement.
TravellersMART reserves the right to send you certain communications
relating to TravellersMART’s service or products, including
administrative messages, market research surveys, and periodic product
announcements associated with your newsletter or e-mail product
subscription(s), as long as you remain a subscriber to one of our
newsletters or e-mail products. Your voluntary response to market
research surveys may be used to improve our products and services and
for anonymous, aggregate reporting for internal and external clients.
From time to time TravellersMART announces voluntary promotional
programs which include promotional incentives for subscribers. These
programs usually require personally identifiable information (ex: name,
mailing address or frequent flyer account numbers) to be submitted for
those subscribers who wish to participate. This information is then
shared, upon the explicit opt-in of the subscriber, with external third
parties for the purpose of fulfilling the promotional components of the
program, for example with an airline for the awarding of frequent flyer
miles to a subscriber’s account. Subscribers who do not wish this
information to be disclosed to third parties may decline participation
in these optional programs. Any promotional program which includes the
sharing of information with a third party will have such a disclosure
clearly described in the program’s description and rules.
We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, and
to administer our Web site. IP addresses are associated with your
e-mail address and other personally identifiable information for the
purpose of documenting that you explicitly signed up (opted-in) for our
e-mail newsletters.
In order to provide our users a seamless experience, some pages on our
site may be hosted by Service Providers. For example, much of our
Investor Relations section is powered by Shareholder.com. When you sign
up for investor-related e-mail alerts, you are actually entering your
information directly with Shareholder.com so that they can provide the
requested service for you on our behalf. Service Providers are
prohibited from using your personally identifiable information for any
other purpose other than for fulfilling the service you requested.
The Site includes a Service Center for TravellersMART shareholders.
This section is password-protected. The features allow shareholders to
update their contact information (e-mail address and mailing address).
This information will not be shared with third parties in ways other
than disclosed in this privacy statement.
Advertising customers can contact advertising sales by filling out an
online form. This form asks for name, company name, phone, fax, and
e-mail. This is an optional feature to help us initially contact
interested advertising customers, and as such the information cannot be
automatically updated once submitted. This information will not be
shared with any third parties in ways other than disclosed in this
privacy statement.
TravellersMART has security measures in place to protect user
information under our company’s control against loss, misuse, or
alteration. Access to private and confidential data is limited to only
those employees with a specific need to retrieve this information. Data
is stored on multiple server systems and written to tapes. All server
systems are located in a secure, limited access Class A facility
complete with environmentally controlled conditions, raised floors, and
dry sprinkler systems.
TravellersMART’s Web sites contain links to other sites. Please be
aware that TravellersMART is not responsible for the privacy practices
of such other sites. TravellersMART encourages our users to be aware
when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and
every Web site that collects personally identifiable information. This
privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Web
site.
TravellersMART reserves the right to add to or modify this Policy
simply by posting such addition or modification on the TravellersMART
Web site. If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable
information in a manner materially different from that stated at the
time it was collected, we will notify users by way of an e-mail or via
a prominent notice on our site.
Legal Disclaimer
Though we make every effort to preserve your privacy we may need to
disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a
good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a
current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on
our Web site.
