This Privacy Policy discloses the privacy practices for all web sites (the
"Web Sites") operated by Christ Church, 316 East High St., Pottstown PA,
(designated "we" or "us").
Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy will tell you what information we collect, how we protect it, how we use it, and what choices you have about how that information is used. We urge you to read our Privacy Policy so that you will understand both our commitment to you and your privacy, and how you can participate in that commitment. Information Collected The Web Sites collect no information about you that could be used to identify you ("Personally Identifiable Information") unless you knowingly and willingly provide it to us. This means that you can visit the Web Sites without telling us who you are or revealing any information about yourself. However, in order to access certain services and restricted areas (the "Services") within the Web Sites, or to respond to specific inquiries, we may require that you provide Personally Identifiable Information. This information may include, without limitation, your legal name, address, telephone number(s), e-mail address, subscriber name or "screen name," password used to access the services, method of payment, and, if applicable, a credit card number. we reserve the right to request any additional information necessary to establish and maintain your account for use of the Services. Unless specifically indicated to the contrary on a specific page where information is collected, Christ Churst is the sole owner of information collected on the Web Sites. Christ Church also collects information about you and your use of the Web Sites through the use of Cookies and/or Session Variables. "Cookies" are small computer files that we transfer to your computer's hard drive that allow us to know how often someone visits our site and the activities they conduct while on our site (such as the chat rooms you visited, etc.), in addition to information about other web pages that someone may have visited before coming to our site. "Session Variables" are similar to Cookies except that they remain on our servers and are not transferred to your computer. Usage of a Cookie or Session Variable is in no way linked to your Personally Identifiable Information. Once you close your web browser, the Cookie or Session Variable simply terminates. For instance, by setting a Cookie or Session Variable on the Web Sites, you would not have to enter your user name, thereby saving time while on the Web Sites, although you would still have to enter your password. If you reject the Cookie or Session Variable, however, you may still use the Web Sites. Sponsors and advertisers may also use Cookies or Session Variables if you click on an advertisement to learn more about a product or service; Christ Church is unable to control their use of Cookies and Session Variables or how they manage the information they gather. You should consult their respective privacy policies to learn more about their information collection practices. Confidentiality We will not sell, rent, trade, barter, or otherwise disclose the Personally Identifiable Information to any third party without your express permission, except as set forth in this section. In the following limited circumstances Christ Church will consider, and may release, Personally Identifiable Information to third parties: (1) to comply with valid legal requirements such as a law, regulation, search warrant, subpoena or court order; (2) in special cases, such as a physical threat to you or others, or (3) in connection with the sale of the relevant Web Site or Sites and substantially all of the assets related thereto. Subscribers may have access to certain electronic forums, such as chat rooms, bulletin boards, e-mail lists, or others, to which other subscribers also have access. Any information you post to an electronic forum will be accessible to one or more third parties. Christ Church does not routinely monitor these forums, and is not responsible for protecting the privacy and confidentiality of any information that you disclose in such a forum.
