Your privacy and safety on the Internet are important to us. As part of the operation of BoundUpBoys.com or any sites operated by Kenneth Benjamin Media ("KB Media"), we gather certain types of information about KB Media customers, and we would like to explain the types of information we gather, what we do with it, and how to correct or change the information.
INFORMATION COLLECTED BY KB MEDIA
KB Media collects two types of personally identifying information from users: personal data (such as names and e-mail addresses); and aggregated data (such as information about traffic patterns on KB Media sites, for example how many users log into KB Media sites on a daily basis).
Please see our payment processor’s Privacy Policy concerning collected information.
PERSONAL DATA
Personal data is collected when users provide personal data to KB Media, for example in purchasing merchandise online, in registering for online bulletin boards, in applying for modeling opportunities, and in answering surveys. As such KB Media does not collect consumer data from third party sources and does not engage in spamming and other illegal Internet activities that violate the privacy of users. None of the personal data KB Media gathers is shared with any third-party individuals or businesses.
AGGREGATED INFORMATION
Aggregated information, such as which pages users access or visit and information volunteered by users, such as survey information, is collected through various methods. For example, KB Media sites collects IP addresses. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you’re surfing the Web. Web servers, the computers that "serve up" Web pages, automatically identify your computer by its IP address, and when you request a page from a KB Media site, our servers may log your IP address. KB Media does not link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable, so although your session may be logged, you will remain completely anonymous to us. Should KB Media collect IP addresses, it is only for the purposes of system administration and to gather aggregate data about the volume of use on KB Media Web sites.
USE OF COOKIES
KB Media sites do not use cookies at this time. A cookie is a small data file that most major Web sites write to your hard drive for record keeping purposes when you visit them. Please see our payment processor’s Privacy Policy concerning use of cookies.
USE OF INFORMATION COLLECTED BY KB MEDIA
KB Media uses both the personal and aggregated information we collect for multiple purposes. The personal information is used to improve the content of KB Media sites, to customize the content and/or layout of KB Media sites for each individual user and to notify users about updates to KB Media sites or promotional offers or opportunities that we believe will be of interest to you.
KB Media may also share aggregated information with consultants and affiliates for internal business purposes. We may be forced to divulge personal information if such information is subpoenaed, or if KB Media believes that any user has committed unlawful acts, to acts that endanger the health or safety of another user or of the general public. Also, in the event that KB Media is sold or KB Media property is transferred to another entity, customer information will of course be one of the transferred assets.
MESSAGE BOARDS AND CHAT ROOMS
Please remember that information posted to message boards and chat areas becomes public information. Use caution when posting. Users under the age of 18 should be especially careful not to provide any personally identifying information while using chat rooms or message boards. Users of KB Media chat rooms and message boards must follow acceptable standards of behavior when posting messages online. KB Media encourages parents and guardians to spend time with their children online, and to be fully familiar with the sites visited by their children. KB Media relies on users to be truthful in interactions with the site.
