Information Collection and Use
Parent Day Out Inc. may collect information from our users at several different points on our website. Parent Day Out Inc. is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. We will not sell, share or rent this information to others in ways other than as disclosed in this statement.
We may share aggregated demographic information with our partners and sponsors. This is not linked to any personally identifiable information.
We may share your email address with our partners to offer you programs and services we are jointly promoting. Please note, however, if such communications include a link to a vendor’s website or a co-branded partner page and you submit personal information to such vendor’s website or a co-branded partner page, then the privacy policies and practices of such vendor’s website or a co-branded partner page governs the use of your personal information.
We may release information provided by a user if a subpoena, order, or demand from a governmental agency or court requires disclosure. We may also release information provided by a user if Parent Day Out in its sole discretion determines that release may assist in protecting the health, safety, or welfare of another. However, Parent Day Out has no obligation to exercise such discretion.
Cookies
Parent Day Out Inc. may deposit cookies on users’ hard drives. A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user’s hard drive containing information about the user. By setting a cookie on our site, a user does not have to log in a password more than once and saves time while on our site. Users who reject the cookie may still use ParentDayOut.com, but they may be limited in some areas of our site.
Cookies can also enable us to better understand the interests of our users to enhance their experience. Some of the information about how our users experience our site, such as page views and specific pages visited, may be logged by a third-party marketing company on our behalf, using cookies and Web beacons. If used, web beacons help us understand information such as what browsers our users have so that we are able to develop our site to best support our users. We control how this data may and may not be used.
Parent Day Out may also work with third-party media measurement services that enable advertisers, publishers and agencies to view audience reports for websites. They use certain data, including IP address and information from cookies to aggregate Internet activity to produce these reports and analysis.
Parent Day Out may also use Google Analytics to help analyze how visitors use our site. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect standard internet log information and visitor behavior information in an anonymous form. For more information on how Google collects and processes this data, please click here.
Parent Day Out may also work with third-party companies to serve ads when you visit www.ParentDayOut.com. These companies may use information (not including your name, address, email address or telephone number) about your visits to www.ParentDayOut.com in order to provide advertisements on www.ParentDayOut.com, other websites and other forms of media about goods and services that may be of interest to you.
Log Files
We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track users’ movement and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Links
This website may contain links to other sites. Please be aware that Parent Day Out Inc. is notresponsible for the privacy practices of these other sites. When users leave our site, we encourage them to be aware of and to read the privacy statements of each and every website that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this website.
User Surveys
From time to time, we may request information from users via surveys. Participation in these surveys is voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information. Information requested may include contact information (such as name, phone number, and address), and demographic information (such as ZIP code and child’s grade level).
Survey information will be used for the purposes improving the use and satisfaction of this site. The information you provide in response to survey questions may be shared, but only in the aggregate or anonymously, with advertisers and partners, unless we notify you otherwise at the time of collection.
Email Referral Service
If users elect to use our email referral service (“Share Profile”), for informing a friend about our site, we ask them for the friend’s name and email address. Parent Day Out Inc. may automatically send the friend a one-time email inviting them to visit the site.
Security
Parent Day Out Inc. has implemented commercially reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration or disclosure. When users submit sensitive information via the website, Parent Day Out Inc. uses commercially reasonable efforts to protect their information both online and offline. However, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat those measures or use your personal information for improper purposes. Thus, you acknowledge that you provide your personal information at your own risk.
If and when a form asks users to enter sensitive information, that information will be encrypted and protected with encryption software called SSL. Learn more about SSL.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to protect personal user information offline. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job will be granted access to personally identifiable information. Furthermore, all employees are kept up to date on our security and privacy practices. The servers that are used to store personally identifiable information are kept in a secure environment.
Compromise of Security
In the event that personal information is compromised as a result of a breach of security, Parent Day Out Inc. will make a best effort to notify those persons whose personal information has been compromised, in accordance with the notification procedures set forth in this Privacy Statement, or as otherwise required by applicable law.
Correction / Updating Personal Information
If a user’s personally identifiable information changes or if a user no longer desires our service, we will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update or remove that user’s personal data provided to us.
Notification of Changes
As we continue to develop our website, this privacy policy likely will change. We therefore encourage you to refer to this policy on an ongoing basis so that you understand our current privacy policy. You agree to review this policy periodically since such changes, modifications, additions or deletions shall be effective immediately upon posting and your subsequent use after such posting shall conclusively be deemed to be acceptance by you of such changes, modifications or deletions.
Login Security
When you choose a password, the password is stored on a protected Parent Day Out Inc. server. However, because Internet communications are generally not secure, you should be aware that when you send your password across the Internet to us, there is a possibility that an experienced hacker could intercept your password. However, we have no evidence to date that password information presents a serious security threat to warrant using a secure shell for this transaction.
A Notice About Advertisers
Parent Day Out may allow advertising by third parties. Parent Day Out does not control linking practices of advertisers or sponsors and does not monitor or claim responsibility for any content or privacy practices of such website. Once you have clicked on an advertisement and have left the Parent Day Out site, you must read the privacy policy of the advertiser or sponsor to see how your personal information will be handled.
Parent Day Out may offer contests, sweepstakes, and promotions that are sponsored by third-party advertisers or sponsors. These third parties may obtain personally identifiable information that visitors voluntarily submit to participate in the activity. Parent Day Out does not control the third parties’ use of information.
Parent Day Out may user a third party advertising server (such as Double Click) to display ads on our site. Some of these ads may contain cookies that are set by third parties (advertisers, sponsors). In addition, we may allow third parties to place cookies or related tools on our site to collect data that may be used to serve advertisements elsewhere (i.e. on other websites). The Parent Day Out privacy policy does not cover any use of information that a third-party may have collected from you.
A Notice About External Links
You may find links from Parent Day Out to independently owned, controlled, and/or managed website whose content we believe will be of possible interest and value to our visitors. Additionally you may see links from advertisers, sponsors and other partners that may use Parent Day Out’ logo as part of a co-branding agreement.
These links may represent cooperative projects or mutual links established with the organizations connected with these sites. We don’t control the content of these links. These other sites may send you their own cookies, collect data, or solicit personal information. While we identify sponsor and advertiser areas of our websites, we do not control these cookies or the content of these third parties.
In the future, Parent Day Out may partner with other companies to provide certain services. In some cases, you may see Parent Day Out’ logo on another company’s site. Parent Day Out does not share any of your personally identifiable information with these partners and they do not share any information with us.
Once you leave our servers (you can generally tell where you are by checking the URL), the use of any information you provide is governed by the privacy policy of the operator of the site you are visiting. That policy may differ from ours. If you can’t find the privacy policy of any of these sites via a link from that site’s home page, you should contact the site directly for more information.
We specifically recommend that parents or teachers monitor any new sites before children connect to them.
Our Commitment to Children’s Privacy
Protecting the privacy of young children is especially important. For that reason, Parent Day Out does not knowingly collect personal information through the website submitted by persons under 13 years of age, and no part of our website is directed to persons under 13. If you are under 13 years of age, then please do not use or access the website without adult supervision. If Parent Day Out learns that personally identifiable information of persons under 13 years of age has been collected through the website without verified parental/guardian consent, then Parent Day Out will make a best effort to delete this information.
