PRIVACY POLICY
Your
privacy is very important to us. Mackinac Media, Inc. (“Mackinac”)
collects certain personally identifiable information from
its Site users on www.mackinacmedia.com (the “Site”).
This policy describes what the types of personal information
we collect and how we use that information.
Information
We Collect
When you visit the Site, we collect and store certain
information
automatically and other information only when you provide
it to us. We automatically collect information relating to:
· your IP address
· your computer browser information
· the Internet address that you visited before accessing
our Site
· the Internet address that you visit when you leave
our Site
· the date, time and duration of your visit
· the name of the domain and host you used to access
the Internet
· the pages and features of our Site which you used.
We may use “cookies”
to assist in automated data collection and to track Site usage.
“Cookies” are simple text files stored on your
computer for record-keeping purposes. The use of cookies is
a standard practice among Internet Web sites; most Internet
browsers permit a user to accept, decline or delete cookies.
If you reject cookies, you may still use the Site, but your
ability to use some of its features may be limited.
In addition,
we collect and store information that you voluntarily provide
when you place an order, send us an email, use certain Site
features, participate in a survey or contest, or register
with us. If you place an order, we request certain personally
identifiable information from you, including contact information
and financial information.
Information Use
and Disclosure
We use collected information
to market our products, to communicate with customers, to
respond to inquiries, to provide information about our products,
to resolve problems, and to manage our Site and assess its
use patterns. Unless it is for the purposes you have requested
or originally agreed, we will not share the personally identifiable
information you provide via the Site with any non-affiliated
third parties, except (a) with your consent, (b) to third
parties with whom Mackinac contracts to carry out the internal
operations of the web site or our business; or (c) as may
be required by law or court order or to protect the personal
safety or property of our users, the public, or ourselves.
Unless you instruct us otherwise,
Mackinac may contact you to provide information about products,
services, promotions, contests, or other activities or offers
that may be of interest to you. In addition, with each communication
you receive from us, you will be given the opportunity to
indicate if you do not wish to receive future communications.
We also may share aggregated
demographic and site visit data with certain third parties
such as advertisers and distributors; this aggregated data
does not identify individual users. In the event that Mackinac
goes through a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition
by another company, or a sale of all or a portion of its assets,
your personally identifiable information will likely be among
the assets transferred.
Links to Other
Sites
This policy only applies to
information collected while you are on our Site pages. These
pages may frame or contain links to other web sites, including
sites of third parties who have a relationship with Mackinac
or display Mackinac trademarks or other brand elements. Please
be aware that when you click on a link that takes you to another
web site, any information you provide, including financial
information, is subject to the privacy policy of that site,
and that Mackinac does not control and is not responsible
for the privacy practices of such other sites.
Children’s
Privacy
This web site is not directed
toward children, and we do not knowingly collect information
from children.
Security
We are committed to protecting
personal information collected through the Site against unauthorized
access, use or disclosure. For Site security purposes and
to maintain its availability for all users, we employ software
to monitor traffic to identify unauthorized attempts to upload
or change information or otherwise damage the Site. We know
that security is a concern for all customers and we committed
to employing reasonable technology to protect the security
of our Site. However, no site is 100% secure. We will take
measures that we believe are commercially reasonable and appropriate
to protect your information from unauthorized access or disclosure
and accidental loss, alteration or destruction.

This privacy policy is effective
as of May 2, 2005. We reserve the right to change this policy
at any time, so please review it frequently. Any such policy
updates will be effective when posted.
