Privacy Policy
The privacy and security of our program participants and their family/guardians is very important to us. This privacy policy describes how we collect, protect and use information we receive from website visitors. This website is operated by Gold Travel Blog, Inc. (Outdoors NW). Please note when you enter any other Gold Travel Blog website, it may have a different privacy policy specific to that site. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of each Gold Travel Blog site.
1. What Information We Collect and How We Use It
Participant Information
To participate in any of the programs offered on the site you will need to register. No one under the age of 18 years old (by the date the contest ends) is allowed to win. To register you will need to provide personal information such as name, address, contact information and specific criteria (e.g., age or gender) that is established for each program. Contact information is used for notification purposes (e.g., to confirm program registration) or when necessary for customer service.
Additional Uses
All of the information we collect is used to personalize your account, to customize our services and to allow our customer service representatives to contact you when necessary. We release personally identifying information you have provided to process a request for a program, product or service or when we provide you with prior notice. We will also disclose personal information about an individual user if we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary to comply with an applicable law or valid legal process. We will use contact information that you provide to send you information about us and promotional material from some of our partners, but only if you indicated you would like to receive such information. You can opt out of receiving these promotions. Information may be released on an aggregated basis (meaning that the information from many participants is grouped together in a way that does not disclose the personal information of any particular participant).
In addition to the disclosures described above, personal information about our users may be provided occasionally to outside auditors, consultants, and others we hire for routine website operations, to help us manage email communications with our members, or for other standard business activities. We ask all recipients to agree to protect the confidentiality, security, and integrity of the information.
When you register to win, it is possible that all names and email addresses are provided to the prize partner for their promotional purposes.
2. Linked Websites
Our Web site contains links to partners, advertisers and third party Internet sites and services that may collect data in connection with registrations, promotions, e-commerce, etc. These sites have their own policies regarding privacy and content that are not under our control. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of these sites. Please understand that we have no responsibility for content on linked websites and provide these links solely for the convenience and information of our visitors. If you click on a website link, we do not send any personal information to that website unless we have advised you about the disclosure. Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns about any links that you find on our site.
3. Security
We use a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your information. All information we collect is stored in encrypted form in a secure database which is protected by a firewall and hosted in a high security operating environment that is monitored 24/7 and not accessible by the public.
4. Changes to Our Privacy Policy
This policy statement has a version number and date. If we change the policy, we will also change the version number and date so users can tell that a change has been made. We may make minor changes from time to time as our services change, as our relationship with other partners develops, and as the Internet evolves. If we plan to make a significant change in the way in which we collect, use, or disclose personal information, we will notify registrants of the change.
