Privacy Policy

ONLINE PRIVACY POLICY

3opolis respects the privacy of visitors to our website. This online privacy policy explains the use and collection of information from you by 3opolis ("we" or "us") through your use of our website. This privacy policy applies to any information you may provide to us through other means (for example, over the telephone or by mail). By visiting our website, you agree that your visit, and any dispute over our online privacy practices, is governed by this privacy policy.   As we continue to develop our website and take advantage of technologies to improve the services we offer, this policy will likely change.  We therefore encourage you to refer to this policy on an ongoing basis so that you understand our current privacy policy.


TYPES OF INFORMATION THAT WE COLLECT

Personal Information.  When visiting on our websites, we will ask you to provide us with certain personal information, including your name, address, telephone number, email. We may also ask you to provide additional information such as unique identifiers, i.e. your date of birth, and registration information (login name and password). We will use the information you provide us to provide you with notices for events and activities, and to inform you of the developments that we are involved with on our other websites. We may also share this personal information with third parties. We also collect this personal information from visitors who voluntarily submit a feedback/inquiry form, send electronic mail to us, register for events, subscribe to newsletters, or otherwise voluntarily submit such information to us through the websites. We save the personal information collected through our websites in our contact database and we may combine it with pre-existing personal information already in the database.  If you do not want us to share information you provide to us with third parties, please contact us using the email form at the bottom of our homepage at www.VRFEST.org.


COOKIES

We also collect information on usage patterns and preferences as visitors navigate our websites.  To help make our sites more responsive to the needs of our visitors, we invoke a standard feature of browser software, called a "cookie," to assign each visitor a unique, random number that resides on your computer. The cookie doesn't actually identify the visitor, just the computer that a visitor uses to access our sites. Unless you voluntarily identify yourself (through a purchase, for example), we will not know who you are, even if we assign a cookie to your computer. The only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply. A cookie cannot read unrelated data from your hard drive. If you are shopping on our sites, we may use cookies to help us keep track of your shopping cart. In addition, we may use cookies to track the pages on our site visited by our users. We can build a better site if we know which pages our users are visiting and how often. Of course, you can set your browser not to accept cookies, but if you do, you may not be able to take advantage of some features enjoyed by other visitors to our sites.


IP ADDRESSES
Our web servers automatically collect limited information about your computer's connection to the Internet, including your IP address, when you visit our sites. (Your IP address is a number that allows computers attached to the Internet know where to send you data -- such as the web pages you view). We use this information to deliver our web pages to you upon request, to tailor our sites to the interests of our visitors, and to measure traffic within our sites.


OTHER METHODS OF COLLECTING INFORMAION
Our web pages may contain electronic images (called "single-pixel GIFs" or "web beacons") that allow us to count users who have visited particular pages or to access certain cookies. We may use these tools and other technologies to recognize which pages users visit, and which links they click. These features are also included in our promotional emails and newsletters so that we can learn which messages have been opened and acted upon. We may also be able to verify your online purchases from us or from third party sites that have agreed to share such information with us.


STORAGE OF INFORMATION

All information gathered on any of our websites, including your personal information, is stored within a secure database operated by us or by a contractor on our behalf. We cannot guarantee the security of our database, nor can we guarantee that information you supply won't be intercepted while being transmitted to us over the Internet.


CHILDRENS’ PRIVACY

Children should always get permission from their parents before sending any information about themselves (such as their names, email addresses, and phone numbers) over the Internet, to us or to anyone else. We generally direct our products and services to individuals over the age of 18.


YOUR PRIVACY CHOICES

We provide you with a number of choices regarding our handling of your personal information.


COMMUNICATIONS FROM 3OPOLIS
We may send free newsletters and other promotional information to select website visitors or those who have participated in any of the services or programs that we provide. If you do not wish to receive our emails or promotional materials please contact us using the email form at the bottom of our homepage at www.VRFEST.org.  To opt-out of email, you may also click on the “Unsubscribe” link and press send at the bottom of email communication.

Once you have submitted your request through these links you should assume that it has been successfully received and that your request is being processed. Please allow us thirty (30) days from when we receive the request to complete the removal, as some of our promotions may already have been in process before you submitted your request.
