Security & Privacy
Welcome to www.mydishgarden.com (the "Site"). We want you to feel safe and secure using the Site, so we have created this Privacy Policy to let you know what information we may collect from you on the Site and how we may use that information. Please take a moment to review the terms of our Privacy Policy. By using the Site, you agree to accept the terms of our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not use the Site. This policy is effective as of December 29, 2008. Information We Collect From time to time, we also may collect general, non-personal, statistical information about the use of the Site, such as visitors IP addresses, how many visitors visit a specific page on the Site, how long visitors stay on that page, and which hyperlinks, if any, visitors "click" on. We collect this information in order to determine which areas of the Site are most popular and to enhance the Site for visitors. We may also group this information into aggregate visitor data in order to describe the use of the Site to our existing or potential business partners, sponsors, advertisers or other third parties, or in response to a government request. However, please be assured that this comprehensive data will in no way personally identify you or any other visitors to the Site. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the Web, and can be used to identify your computer. However, when we collect IP addresses, we do so only in a comprehensive fashion and not in a way that will identify you personally. Personally Identifying Information We Collect In order to access certain information and features contained on the Site, we may require you to register for an account on the Site or otherwise provide us with personally identifying information ("PII"). The categories of PII we collect may include, without limitation, your first and last name, email address, mailing address, phone and fax numbers, and general information about you. We also may collect any other information you provide us voluntarily or through your electronic communications with us. We collect PII in order to fulfill our services to you and to ensure compliance with our policies and applicable law. We also may use your PII to process requested transactions, customize the services we provide to you and send you periodic communications by email or regular mail. For example, we may ask for your feedback regarding the Site or provide you with promotional or other special offers.
