The
Internet contains a wealth of information, which is what attracted
you to it in the first place. Some sites will collect personal
information about you to enhance the use of that site - to personalize
pages etc. You probably don't want anyone else to know these details
- for example, your real name (though some people on the 'net
use aliases, alter egos or nicknames), street address, phone number,
or e-mail address. Also the other thing to remember is that when
you go online, sites you visit may be gathering information about
you without your knowledge. Blazer's policy is to respect and
protect the privacy of our users. Blazer and the Blazer affiliates
will never willfully disclose individually identifiable information
about its customers to any third party without first receiving
that customer's permission.
This policy statement tells you how we collect information from
you and how we use it. Using the Internet should be a fun and
non-threatening experience and we want to help make it so. Blazer
occasionally shares information about our users with business
partners, sponsors and other third parties. However, we always
talk about our users in aggregate, not as individuals. For example,
we will say Blazer's audience is x percent females and y percent
males. This data is only used to slant the Blazer web sites content
for its visiters.
There are cases where Blazer may ask you for personal information,
such as your name or address. We only do this when you register
for contests/promotions or services that require registration
or subscription (for example, a chat). Blazer needs to collect
this information for fulfilling prizes (otherwise you wouldn't
receive them), tracking or verifying compliance with Blazer policies
as well as federal, state and local laws and/or for editorial
and feedback solicitation purposes. When we intend to use your
personal information, we tell you up front. This way you can decide
whether you want to give us the information or not. For example,
we may want to post the names of contest winners on our site or
send you materials via e-mail or regular mail at your request.
In case you change your mind or some personal information may
change (such as your marital status), we will endeavor to provide
a way to correct, update or remove the personal data you give
us.
Blazer encourages parents and guardians to spend time online with
their children and to participate in the activities offered with
the multitude of sites the World Wide Web (WWW) offers. No information
should be submitted to or posted on an Blazer website by guests
under 13 years of age without the consent of their parent or guardian.
Unless otherwise disclosed during collection, Blazer does not
provide any personally identifying information, regardless of
its source, to any third party for any purpose whatsoever.
All registrants receive e-mail confirming their registration.
No information collected from guests under 18 years of age is
used for any marketing or promotional purposes whatsoever, either
inside or outside Blazer except as explicitly stated during registration
for contests or promotions. Although guests under 13 years of
age are allowed to participate in contests and promotions, if
such a guest wins, notification and prizes are sent to the parents
or guardians identified in the initial registration process. Publication
of contest winners names and ages for individuals under 18 require
parental or guardian consent during contest registration.
Users should be aware that when you are on an Blazer site, you
could be directed to other sites that are beyond our control.
There are links to other sites from Blazer pages that take you
outside our service. For example, if you "click" on a link in
a news item, the "click" takes you off the Blazer site. This includes
links from partners that may use Blazer's logos as part of a co-branding
agreement. These other sites may send their own cookies to users,
collect data or solicit personal information. Always be aware
of where you may end up! Please keep in mind that whenever you
give out personal information online --- for example, via message
boards or chat --- that information can be collected and used
by people you don't know.
While Blazer strives to protect its user's personal information
and privacy, we cannot guarantee the security of any information
you disclose online and you do so at your own risk. Blazer's policy
does not extend to anything that is inherent in the operation
of the internet, and therefore beyond Blazer's control, and is
not to be applied in any manner contrary to applicable law or
governmental regulation.
We reserve the right at our discretion to make changes to this
policy at any time. Please check this page periodically for changes.
