Privacy Policy
The policy below is applicable to all Okvine sites and to Okvine.com in
general.
Your privacy on the Internet is important to us. We have created this
privacy statement to demonstrate our commitment to your privacy.
As
part of the operations of Okvine, we gather certain types of
information about Okvine users. This Okvine privacy policy (the
“Privacy Policy”) explains the types of information we gather, what we
do with it and how you may correct or change information that
Okvine.com may collect.
Information Collected by Okvine
Okvine.com collects two types of information about users: personal
information (e-mail address) and aggregate information (such as
information about how many users log on to our sites on a daily basis).
Personal Information
Personal information is collected when users voluntarily register.
Personal information includes e-mail addresses, user registration data,
passwords and any other user data. We may also receive personal usage
and demographic information from our third-party partners, and we also
collect e-mail addresses from users who send us support mail or request
technical or other help. This information enables Okvine to improve its
sites to make your online visits more productive and enjoyable.
Our site’s registration form requires users to, give us a valid e-mail
address. We use e-mail addresses to let you know about new features,
offers and other benefits.
Aggregate Information
One method of collecting aggregate information about your activities
online (such as the pages you access most frequently or the search
terms you enter), and information volunteered by you (such as survey or
registration information), is by tracking Internet Protocol (IP)
addresses. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to
your computer whenever you surf the Web. The computers that deliver the
Web pages to you automatically identify your computer by its IP
address. When you request a page from one of our sites, our servers log
your IP address. Okvine.com sites record IP addresses for the purpose
of system administration and to provide aggregate data to advertisers
about the volume of use on our sites. We also use your IP address to
help diagnose problems with our server, and to administer our Web site.
In addition, your IP address is used to help identify you and to gather
broad demographic information.
Sharing Data with Third Parties
Okvine shares aggregate information with third parties for advertising
and promotional purposes. Okvine may also share personal information
with consultants and affiliates for internal business purposes and may
divulge personal information if such information is subpoenaed, or if
Okvine believes that membership has been used to commit unlawful acts,
or acts that may endanger the health or safety of another user or of
the general public.
Use of Cookies
Okvine sites use ‘cookies’ to record information. A cookie is a small
data file that Web sites store on your hard drive when you visit them.
Cookies allow us to measure activity on our sites and to improve your
user experience by remembering your passwords and viewing preferences,
and allowing you to visit various members-only parts of our sites
without re-registering. Cookies allow us to determine which areas and
features of our sites are most popular by measuring user activity. This
information allows us to make improvements and updates to improve your
Okvine.com experience. Okvine sites do not use cookies to retrieve any
information from your computer.
Most browsers are set to accept cookies. If you prefer, you may set
your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being
sent. However, some parts of our sites, such as the members-only areas
will not function properly if you choose not to accept cookies.
Links to Third Parties
This site contains links to sites other than our own. Those sites may
not follow the same privacy policies as Okvine. Such links may be to
advertisers, content providers or partners who may use our logo and/or
style as a result of a co-branding or application service provider
agreements. These sites may send their own cookies to you, and may
collect information and use it in a way inconsistent with Okvine’s
privacy policy. Such sites may contain information that content
providers independent of Okvine have created, maintained, published,
posted or otherwise made available.
The use of any information or materials that you may access at these
external sites is purely voluntary. You should not rely on the contents
without independent and thorough review of the accuracy, completeness,
effectiveness, timeliness and correct sequencing. These external sites
may also refer to specific commercial products, processes, or services
by trade name, trademark, service mark, manufacturer or otherwise.
Unless Okvine.com has provided explicit authority, such references in
no way indicate our endorsement, recommendation or preference.
Okvine may use a third-party ad company to display ads on our site.
These ads may contain cookies. While we use cookies in other parts of
our Web site, cookies received with banner ads are collected by our ad
company, and we do not have access to this information.
Public Forum
Information posted to message boards, chat areas and home pages is
available to the general public and becomes public information. In
addition, the site offers to visitors the possibility to provide their
own content. PLEASE EXERCISE CAUTION WHEN DECIDING TO DISCLOSE YOUR
PERSONAL INFORMATION. Users under the age of 18 should be particularly
careful not to provide any personally identifying information while
using chat rooms or message boards. Users of chat areas and message
boards must follow acceptable standards of behavior when posting
messages online. Okvine.com reserves the right to, but is not obligated
to, refuse or delete any content that in our sole discretion is
considered inappropriate.
Children’s Guidelines
Okvine.com encourages parents and guardians to spend time with their
children online, and to be familiar with the sites their children
visit.

database at any time and to not receive future communications and to no
longer receive the membership benefits of our service. To do so, please
