WELCOME

Thank you for visiting the JUPITER HOSTING (“Jupiter”) website at www.jupiterhosting.com (“Website”) and reviewing our Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy describes the information collected from visitors/users/customers of this Website and how this information is used. This Privacy Policy may change at any time, without prior notice to any visitor/user/customer. Please check this Privacy Policy periodically for changes. This Privacy Policy applies only to information that you provide to Jupiter online while visiting Jupiter’s Website, and does not apply to any information that Jupiter has received, obtained or may obtain offline or through other traditional means. This Privacy Policy is subject to the terms and conditions as set forth in Jupiter’s Terms of Use, accessible at http://wwwjupiterhosting.com/page/view/p/61/t/terms_and_conditions.html.

YOU ARE HEREBY ADVISED THAT YOUR CONTINUED USE OF JUPITER’S WEBSITE AND/OR SERVICES OR PRODUCTS CONSTITUTES YOUR ACCEPTANCE TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY, AND THE CURRENT AND PRIOR VERSIONS, AND ANY AMENDMENTS THERETO.

Your privacy is important to us! Jupiter values its visitors/users/customers and is committed to protecting your privacy. Jupiter shares your information only as described in this Privacy Policy. Jupiter has provided this Privacy Policy to assist you in understanding the information that we collect, how we use it, and the ways we maintain it, including the security of your personal information.

GENERAL INFORMATION COLLECTED
In order to enhance the content contained on this Website, Jupiter may gather and store certain information about your visit. “General Information” is information about you or your activities through which you cannot be identified. This information may include some or all of the following items:

1. The Internet Protocol (“IP”) address of your Internet Service Provider (“ISP”) and/or your computer, if it has its own static IP address. The domain name may also be collected.

2. The date, time, length of stay, and specific Jupiter web pages, images, documents or forms accessed at this Website.

3. Whether a visitor/user/customer is viewing the Website for the first time, or is a return visitor/user/customer.

4. The Uniform Resource Locator (“URL”) of the website that referred the visitor/user/customer to the Jupiter Website, and/or the search engine that referred a visitor/user/customer and any search strings or phrases entered into the search engine to find this Website.

5. Demographic information concerning the country of origin of the visitor/user/customer and language(s) used.

6. The type and version of the Internet browser used to visit this Website, the operating system on the visitor/user/customer’s computer, and information regarding client errors viewing this Website.

Jupiter collects this General Information and may use it to generate aggregate statistics about visitors to the Website. In situations where it is possible to do so, General Information may be linked to Personal Information.

PERSONAL INFORMATION COLLECTED
“Personal Information” is information through which you can be identified. Providing your personal information to Jupiter is each visitor/user/customer’s choice. Personal Information that Jupiter may collect from you includes, but is not limited to your name, postal address(es), telephone number(s), facsimile number(s), e-mail address(es), date of birth, social security number, driver’s license number and state issued, credit card number(s) and account information, bank account number(s) and account information, passport information, naturalization information, and any other information that you voluntarily provide. Personal Information volunteered by a visitor/user/customer is used by Jupiter for internal verification to complete requested transactions, to enable and provide support, ensure appropriate legal use of Jupiter’s goods and/or services, provide notification to its visitors/users/customers about updates to Jupiter’s Website, goods, services, scheduled maintenance and data, and to help provide technical and support for Jupiter’s goods and services to its visitors/users/customers.

Your Personal Information is collected from our Website, through e-mail and/or through online applications you complete, our contact us page, and through your activities with Jupiter. Personal Information that Jupiter collects depends on the nature of your activities, including, but not limited to, whether you contact us through e-mail or our contact us page and/or purchase a product from our store. For example, Personal Information submitted by you on the “Contact Us” web page is used by Jupiter to enhance this Website or to reply to questions/comments made by you.

In addition to its own use, Jupiter may pass your Personal Information to a participating credit card processor, distributor, and/or any of their authorized agents who provides the goods or services requested to meet the visitor/user/customer’s needs. Jupiter may provide your e-mail address to vendors that it deems provide goods or services which you may need. You may opt out of receiving such vendor emails by contacting us at ops1@jupiterhosting.com .

Jupiter may also use your Personal Information, or a portion thereof, to send you marketing and promotional materials, new product or services information, distributor information, retail store information, information regarding the industry and/or vendors with information that you may need, unless you notify Jupiter that you do not wish to receive such materials. Jupiter may also use the services of bonded mailing houses that are authorized to use your Personal Information only for the benefit of Jupiter. Please contact Jupiter at ops1@jupiterhosting.com and request that you not be sent any or all of such information.

Jupiter may also disclose your Personal Information if: (1) your information is subject to disclosure in response to the demand of a judicial or governmental subpoenas, warrants, or orders served on Jupiter; (2) your information is subject to disclosure to protect Jupiter’s rights or property, to enforce the provisions of this Privacy Policy and/or Jupiter’s Terms of Use, and/or to prevent harm to yourself or other; and (3) your information is subject to disclosure or transfer if Jupiter or its business is sold or offered for sale to another entity or individual(s), a petition for relief is filed under U.S. Bankruptcy laws for or against Jupiter, or if Jupiter becomes subject to an order of appointment of a trustee or receiver.

Jupiter may purchase a business or sell one or more of its businesses and your Personal Information may be transferred as a part of the purchase or sale. In the event that we purchase a business, the Personal Information received with that business would be treated in accordance with this Privacy Policy, if it is practicable and permissible to do so. In the event that we sell a business, we will attempt to include provisions in the selling contract requiring the purchaser to treat your Personal Information in the same manner required by this Privacy Policy. Thus, any of your opt out requests will not affect our right to transfer your information to a purchaser in these circumstances. Jupiter reserves the right to transfer your Personal Information to a third party in the event of a transfer of all or substantially all of Jupiter’s assets to a third party, provided that the third party agrees to adhere to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

Jupiter may hire companies to help deliver products or services, like a bandwidth company, hardware or software vendor or a company that helps fulfill promotions or other service offerings. In those instances, there is a need to share your information with these companies. Jupiter may also work with other companies who help either gather your information or communicate with you. Your opt-out of receiving information from us and/or third parties will not apply to sharing by Jupiter of your personal information with any of these companies. Nonetheless, except as separately permitted by other provisions of this Privacy Policy, these companies are allowed to gather, receive, and use your information only for the purposes described herein or as required by law.

Jupiter may take your Personal Information and make it non-personally identifiable, either by combining it with information about other individuals (aggregating your information with information about other individuals), or by removing characteristics (such as your name) that make the information personally identifiable to you (de-personalizing your information). Given the nature of this information, there are no restrictions under this Privacy Policy upon the right of Jupiter to aggregate or de-personalize your Personal Information, and Jupiter may use and/or share with third parties the resulting non-personally identifiable information in any manner.

Unless legally required to do so, Jupiter will not sell, rent or otherwise disclose your Personal Information to any outside company or organization, except as described herein. This Privacy Policy excludes data that may be stored or transmitted to or from the Internet company hosting this Website.

COOKIES

When you visit our Website, we place a cookie in a directory of your computer’s hard drive. The information that cookies collect includes the date and time of your visit and your registration information. Cookies offer you many conveniences for our Website. For example, they allow Jupiter to recognize certain information, such as your browser type, so we know if you can view certain plug-ins like Macromedia Flash files. They also allow us to streamline your visit based on previous visits.

Cookies may be either permanent or temporary. Jupiter uses permanent cookies. This means that the cookie stays on your hard drive until you delete it. You can delete our cookie at any time by following the instructions contained in your browser’s help file, or by contacting the company providing your browser’s technical support.

You may configure your browser to accept or deny cookies from this Website.

For more information on cookies or to further understand their use and benefits, please see the U.S. Department of Energy’s Computer Incident Advisory Capability (CIAC) report at: http://www.ciac.org/ciac/bulletins/i-034.shtml.

MAINTENANCE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
You can access your Personal Information contained in Jupiter’s database by contacting us at PrivacyInformationAccess@Jupiterhosting.com. If you believe that any of your information is incorrect or needs updating, please let us know either at the e-mail address listed in this section, or by U.S. Postal Mail to our address listed below (Attn: Privacy Information Access).

After such a request is received, Jupiter will use reasonable efforts to refrain from including you when sending such notifications to Jupiter’s visitors/users/customers by noting your opt out election in our database.

CHILDREN
Jupiter does not knowingly solicit or collect information from children (defined as minors younger than thirteen (13) years of age). If you are the parent or guardian of a child under the age of eighteen (18) or the legal age of contract majority, and have authorized your child to use your computer, we urge you to instruct your child never to give out his or her real name, address, phone number, e-mail address or other personally identifying information while on this Website. There are no computer applications on this Website which allow for the determination of the age of a visitor/user/customer. All information volunteered to Jupiter will be treated the same as information given by an adult. Jupiter recommends that the Internet browsing behavior of any child should be carefully supervised by a responsible adult at all times.

LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES
This Website contains several links to other websites. Neither Jupiter, nor any of its officers, directors, partners, affiliates, subsidiaries, employees, agents, representatives, vendors or suppliers of Jupiter are responsible for the content, privacy policies, products, services, reliability, viewpoint, or accuracy of information on any such websites. We do not control and shall not be responsible for the collection of personal information by third party websites, including websites owned or controlled by our distributors, vendors and/or websites not controlled or authorized by Jupiter. Third party websites that are accessed through links on our Website have separate privacy policies. We have no responsibility or liability for the policies implemented by third parties on their websites. You should contact them directly to ask questions about their privacy policies.

If you enter or choose to leave our Website via links to other non-Jupiter websites (including those of our distributors or vendors), your visits to those websites are not covered by this Privacy Policy.

SECURITY
The security and confidentiality of your information is extremely important to us. We have implemented technical, administrative, and physical security measures to protect your information from unauthorized access and improper use. Jupiter makes access to your Personal Information subject to certain security measures, including technological controls such as “firewalls,” in accordance with industry standards. When the use of a Jupiter web page involves the transmission of Personal Information or confidential information of Jupiter, Jupiter uses Secure Socket Layer (“SSL”) technology to establish a secure connection between your computer and Jupiter. SSL allows the transmission of encrypted information from your computer to Jupiter and back again, and is currently the industry standard for Internet platform security. From time to time, we review our security procedures in order to consider appropriate new technology and methods.

Please be aware though that no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, so while Jupiter strives to protect your Personal Information, Jupiter cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information that you voluntarily give to Jupiter.

Jupiter reserves the right to monitor all network traffic to this Website to identify and/or block unauthorized attempts or intrusions to upload or change information or cause damage to this Website in any manner. Anyone using this Website expressly consents to such monitoring.
