The Lead Champion maintains high standards for the protection of privacy over the Internet. The following policy statement explains how The Lead Champion protects the privacy of information transmitted over the Internet from its web site visitors.
Generally, The Lead Champion only obtains specific and individualized data about its web site visitors when such information is supplied voluntarily, i.e., when web site visitors send e-mail to or purchase services from The Lead Champion. The Lead Champion then uses the information for the purpose of fulfilling the visitors' requests. However, The Lead Champion gathers some generic information automatically, solely to help The Lead Champion determine the success and usefulness of its web sites. This generic information, which does not reveal the identity of the visitor, include: what web site the visitor visited, how much time people spend on various pages of the site, visitors' domain name types (.com, .org, etc.), and the originating web page of the visitor. The Lead Champion uses this information to determine customer service needs. In the future, The Lead Champion may increase its technical abilities for gathering data about visitors in order to enhance the services offered to visitors and customers. This privacy policy will be periodically updated to reflect any such changes to The Lead Champion’s practices.
The Lead Champion web sites may employ "cookies". Cookies are small segments of text that are transmitted to a visitor's web browser and which store information on the visitor's hard drive. This information is later transmitted back to the server that originally sent it to the visitor upon a later visit to that site. Cookies allow servers to recall previous transactions to avoid repetition in data gathering. A visitor can configure its equipment hardware, usually with its browser to make notification when they receive a cookie. The visitor can refuse it.
The Lead Champion does not send "junk" e-mail, also known as "spam". In certain instances, when The Lead Champion wishes to contact customers via e-mail, respond to messages, confirm purchases, or transmit information requested by a visitor, The Lead Champion will use e-mail. Any time a customer or visitor receives e-mail it does not want from The Lead Champion, the customer can request that The Lead Champion not send further e-mail.
The Lead Champion has security measures in place for protecting data conveyed during a visitor's purchase with The Lead Champion. The Lead Champion employees, partners and subcontractors are required to protect the privacy of such data. The Lead Champion wants its visitors and customers to feel that their privacy will be protected when the visitor accesses their account or purchases services from The Lead Champion on-line. The Lead Champion denies any responsibility for the privacy protections or content offered by other sites to which The Lead Champion's web sites may contain links.
Because The Lead Champion desires accuracy in the information it obtains and uses about its visitors and customers, The Lead Champion will attempt to verify its data and will ask its customers to notify it of any inaccuracies or mistakes of which they may become aware through their on-line account data and monthly bills.
