INTERNET
PRIVACY STATEMENT
Your
privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy,
we provide this notice explaining our Internet information
practices and the choices you can make about the way your
information is collected and used on this Web site.
INFORMATION COLLECTION
When
you browse zoomvacations.com and/or any Web site owned, operated,
licensed or controlled by Zoom Vacations (referred to in this
Internet Privacy Statement as "Zoom") and have not
registered for any online service from Zoom, you browse anonymously.
Personal information such as your name, address, phone number,
or E-mail address, is not collected as you browse. Zoom does,
however, use "cookies," "client variables"
and "session variables" to collect information about
how our site is used. Information, such as the server your
computer is logged onto, your browser type, and whether you
responded to a Zoom hyperlink or E-mail, is collected and
tracked in aggregate. This information is used for the purpose
of measuring response rates to hyperlinks and E-mail offers
as well as overall Web site activity and performance.
IP ADDRESSES
Zoom collects the IP addresses used to access our
Web site and the dates and times of access. This information
is used to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's
movement, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate
use. IP addresses are not personally linked to identifiable
information.
REGISTRATION FOR ONLINE PRODUCTS
& SERVICES
In order to provide you with a particular product
or service online, we may request that you voluntarily supply
us with personal information, including your E-mail address,
for purposes such as correspondence, site registration, submitting
an application or booking request, placing an order, or participating
in online surveys and/or contests and enabling us to provide
an online product or service to you in an efficient manner.
If you are known to us as a registered user of a Zoom online
product or service, we may combine information about your
use of zoomvacations.com and/or any Web site owned, operated,
licensed or controlled by Zoom and the online product or service
you utilize with certain other online and offline information
we have about you as a Zoom customer and information you have
provided to us as well as information available from external
sources in order to customize your online experience and present
you with relevant online and offline offers and updates. We
also use a "cookie," "client variable"
or "session variable" to enable our server to recognize
you as a registered Zoom online service user when you re-enter
our Web site.
INFORMATION USE
We may use information you have given us to, for
example, provide a service, ensure proper booking, measure
consumer interest in our various products and services and
inform you about products and services. If you have provided
your E-mail address to us or to a company we've partnered
with to make their products and services available to you,
we may send you E-mails. These E-mails may be based on information
you provided in your initial transaction with us, in surveys
both online and offline, from information that may indicate
purchasing preferences and lifestyle, as well as information
available from external sources. These E-mails come directly
from Zoom. You can opt-out from receiving E-mail from Zoom
as described below in the section, "Declining E-mail".
When we send E-mails to you, we may be able to identify information
about your E-mail address, such as whether you can read graphic-rich
HTML E-mails. If your E-mail address is HTML-enabled, we may
choose to send you graphic-rich HTML E-mails. Please note
that we do not provide your E-mail address to our business
partners. However, we may send you offers on behalf of our
business partners. Keep in mind that if you take advantage
of an offer from a Zoom business partner and become their
customer, they may independently wish to send E-mails to you.
In this case, you will need to inform them separately if you
wish to decline receiving future E-mails from them.
We may also share information with law enforcement agencies
in the event of a criminal investigation or suspected illegal
activity.
DECLINING E-MAIL
Zoom provides customers with an easy means to decline
receiving E-mail. We recognize the importance of providing
you a choice. At any time, you may request to discontinue
receiving these E-mails from us by simply replying to the
E-mail and informing us of your preferences.
CHILDREN
We do not use zoomvacations.com and/or any Web
site owned, operated, licensed or controlled by Zoom to
knowingly solicit data from or market to children under
the age of 18.
