Carl's Plumbing & Heating Privacy Policy

Thanks for taking a moment to visit this important area of the Carl's Plumbing & Heating web site. The Internet is a powerful tool and like most everything else in life it's a double-edged sword. On the one hand the Internet provides more information and services than a person could ever hope to wade through in a single lifetime. On the other hand, it can be used to provide more information about you to the rest of the world than you probably will ever wish to be known. Scary, isn't it?
There aren't really any easy answers on how to protect your privacy. To be completely safe you have to choose not to participate at all. However, this isn't a viable option for most of us, who what to get better at what we do and use the power of this site and the Internet to do so…so the next best thing is to be particular about whom you choose to provide with your personal information. Carl's Plumbing & Heating wants you to know exactly how we use the information you provide.


PERSONAL INFORMATION:
First and foremost we respect and protect the privacy of our users. Carl's Plumbing & Heating will never willfully disclose individually identifiable information about its customers and members to any third party without first receiving your written permission.
However, we only talk about our users and members in aggregate, not as individuals. For example, we feel it's ok to tell an advertiser that our membership base is x percent female and y percent male. This type of information is useful in tailoring our content and advertisement to your taste as a group.
There are cases where we collect personal information such as your name or address. We do this when you register. We use this information for internal use only and we never sell, distribute, share, or inform any third party about any detail of this type of information. 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 send you materials via e-mail or regular mail at your request or use a testimonial you've given us. In case you change your mind or your personal information changes (such as your marital status), we will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update, or remove the personal data you give us.


USE OF COOKIES:
We use "cookies" at Carl's Plumbing & Heating in a few areas of the site. These cookies are used to identify you uniquely, but not personally. For instance, when you enter an area of the site that uses cookies, we might log you in and create a temporary "cookie" id for your session. As you move through the site we keep track of your preferences during the session so that you don't have to continue logging in on every protected page you browse. We don't use the cookie to track you as "by name" we use it to uniquely identify your session. A large percentage of our content does not use the cookie concept, but when it does it is mandatory that the cookie be accepted. We realize that this might not be a popular position, but we are being up front with you about how we use the cookie; there is nothing up our sleeves and we don't use it to collect personal information.


LINKS TO OTHER SITES:
There are links to other sites from Carl's Plumbing & Heating pages that take you outside our site. For example, "Links to sales tip providers" give you access to other great sales trainers on the net. When you click on a link to another site, our policy end and the new site's policies begin. We can only control our policies while you are visiting pages within our site. Be aware that not everyone is up-front about privacy and the collection of information from its users.
Carl's Plumbing & Heating privacy policy does not extend to anything that is inherent in the operation of the Internet, and therefore beyond our control, and is not to be applied in any manner contrary to applicable law or governmental regulation.
Carl's Plumbing & Heating reserves the right to make changes to this policy at its discretion. Please check this page periodically for changes.
