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.
Thank you for putting your trust in us!
