King Sports International,
Inc. (“KSI”) Online Privacy Policy
(Last updated August 14,
2005)
KSI has established this Privacy Policy to explain how it
protects and manages the personal information that it
collects from you (the customer) online.
|
1. |
Consent for Collection, Use and Disclosure |
Your use of the KSI site and/or your registration for KSI
products and services constitute your consent to the terms
of this Privacy Policy.
If you do
not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not
use the KSI site.
KSI may
occasionally update this Privacy Policy. When it does, KSI
will also revise the “last update” date at the top of this
Privacy Policy. In addition, KSI will seek a customer’s
prior consent, by email, for any new uses or proposed
disclosures of information collected from the customer prior
to the change. KSI will notify customers by email
of changes to this policy that will affect information
collected from them in the future.
In
certain circumstances, however, KSI will not inform and
obtain the consent of the customer, such as in connection
with an investigation of a breach of an agreement,
contravention of laws, an emergency where the life, health
or security of an individual is threatened, the collection
of a debt or in compliance with the request of a law
enforcement agency or a court order. In cases where
information has been provided, including testimonials, and
at the time the client has submitted those with reasonable
expectation that they have given permission for use in
marketing, KSI will not further inform and obtain the
consent of the customer.
A customer may withdraw his or her consent for collection,
use and disclosure at any time by sending an email to
unsubscribe@kingsports.net, including asking in writing
in this email to unsubscribe you. Please note that, if you
do, KSI may suspend its provision of products and services
to you. When
you unsubscribe, if you fall within the guarantee
period for any KSI product and you request a refund, the
guarantee will be honoured.
KSI collects, at the time of your registration and your
sign-on to its web site, certain “personal information”
(information that personally identifies you) including but
not limited to your name, email address, home or work
address, telephone number, and information about your
computer hardware and software (e.g., IP address,
operating system, browser type, domain name, URL, access
times, and referring web site addresses).
KSI has implemented this Privacy Policy to protect personal
information received from its customers, and to respond to
any inquiries.
The Privacy Policy also provides that KSI will use
appropriate contractual means to establish a comparable
level of protection for personal information which is sent
for processing by third parties on KSI’s behalf.
|
3. |
Purposes for Collecting Personal Information |
KSI collects and uses personal information for the following
Identified Purposes:
|
(a) |
to understand customer needs regarding KSI’s
services; |
|
(b) |
to develop and provide our web site and our products
and services for our customers; |
(c)
to fulfill your requests for
products, services or information;
|
(d) |
to communicate with customers and site visitors,
when necessary, and to inform customers of upgrades,
as well as of other products and services available
from KSI, its affiliates and third parties; |
|
(e) |
to allow customers to access limited-entry areas of
KSI’s site; |
|
(f) |
to personalize some of our services and products for
you and to deliver targeted advertisements and
offers from KSI and third parties; |
|
(g) |
to bill accounts and maintain payment records;
|
|
(h) |
to comply with any applicable law, regulation, legal
process or government request; |
|
(i) |
to respond to a legitimate claim, or to address our
reasonable belief, that you are violating the rights
of any third party or any of the agreements or
policies that govern your use of the KSI site or any
KSI product or service; |
|
(j) |
to protect the services, products or rights of KSI,
including but not limited to the security or
integrity of the KSI site; and |
|
(k) |
to
identify and resolve technical problems concerning
KSI’s site, products and services. |
KSI also uses personal information in an aggregate form (i.e.,
not individually attributable to you) for its business
analysis, operational, marketing and other promotional
purposes.
If we hire other companies to provide some products or
services on our behalf, then we will only provide those
companies the personal information they need for the
Identified Purposes, and we will limit their rights to use
and further disclose your personal information as
appropriate in the course of their work for us.
|
4. |
Limiting the Collection of Personal Information |
KSI limits its collection of personal information to only
that information which is necessary for the Identified
Purposes. KSI does not direct its site to, nor does it
knowingly collect any personal information from children
under the age of thirteen.
When you visit the KSI web site, a cookie may be placed on
your computer or the cookie may be read if you have visited
the KSI site previously. KSI uses cookies to allow KSI to
determine which products and services you have already
purchased so that KSI does not provide redundant information
to you, and, if you are an KSI affiliate, to track KSI sales
made to customers referred by you so that you can receive
compensation under our affiliate program. If you choose to
not have your browser accept cookies from the KSI web site,
you may not be able to view all the text on the screens, or
to experience a personalised visit, or to subscribe to
certain service and product offerings on the KSI site.
|
5. |
Disclosure, Processing and Retention
|
KSI does not sell, rent or disclose your personal
information to anyone else, except:
|
(a) |
to someone you have designated to act as your agent,
for one or more of the Identified Purposes (listed
in Section 2, above); |
|
(b) |
to KSI’s employees, independent contractors,
subsidiaries, affiliates, consultants, business
associates, service providers, suppliers and agents,
acting on KSI’s behalf
for any of the Identified Purposes; |
|
(c) |
as necessary if KSI has reason to believe that
disclosure is necessary to identify, contact or
bring legal action against someone who may be
causing injury to or interference (either
intentionally or unintentionally) with KSI’s rights
or property, other users of KSI’s web site, products
or services, or anyone else that could be harmed by
such activities; and |
|
(d) |
to
respond to judicial process and provide information
to law enforcement agencies or in connection with an
investigation on matters related to public safety,
as permitted by law, or otherwise as required by
law. |
In addition, as we continue to develop our business, we or
our affiliates may sell or buy other businesses or entities,
or we may merge with another company. In such transactions,
personal information may be one of the transferred business
assets. Also, in the event that KSI or substantially all of
its assets are acquired, your personal information may be
one of the transferred assets.
Your information may be stored and processed in the United
States, or in any other country in which KSI or its
affiliates, subsidiaries or agents maintain facilities. By
using this web site, you consent to any such transfer of
information outside of your country.
After your account becomes inactive (that is, if you request
to be removed from our database), KSI will keep your
personal information in its archives. Your information will
then be used only as necessary for tax reasons or to prove
KSI’s compliance with any
applicable law.
|
6. |
Accuracy of Personal Information |
KSI will use reasonable efforts to keep customer personal
information accurate for the Identified
Purposes, and for minimizing the possibility of
making inappropriate customer decisions based on such
information. Customers are responsible for informing KSI
about changes to their personal information. KSI will use
new or updated personal information it receives from
customers to update its own records.
Customers have the right to request that inaccurate or
incomplete information be amended as appropriate, by
contacting KSI. KSI will promptly correct such personal
information.
KSI will use reasonable efforts to protect customers’
personal information.
