1. Our Security Policy
With respect to using your credit card to conduct transactions
through the Services, the credit card issuer's policy regarding
unauthorized use will determine what (if any) limits there are
on your liability. If you feel that you have been a victim of
unauthorized use of your credit card, you must notify your credit
card provider in accordance with its own reporting rules and procedures.
If you feel that your situation has not been resolved satisfactorily,
please contact us at service@iGROWyourBiz.com and we will use
reasonable efforts to assist you. Please note that you are responsible
for maintaining the confidentiality of your Evans Consulting Group,
Inc. password, and are responsible for any and all activities,
including but not limited to all orders (whether or not such orders
were authorized by you), that are made through your Evans Consulting
Group, Inc. account.
Measures We Take to Help Ensure the Safety of Your Transactions
IGROWyourBiz.com uses an industry-standard security technology
called Secure Sockets Layer ("SSL"), a protocol developed
by Netscape for the secure transmission of private information
over the Internet. SSL works by using a private key to encrypt
data that are transmitted over the SSL connection. Current versions
of the Netscape Navigator, Internet Explorer and America Online
browsers support SSL, as do other browsers, and Evans Consulting
Group, Inc.'s Web site uses SSL when its customers transmit confidential
information, such as credit card numbers. Your document is uploaded
to us using the same encryption settings your browser uses when
connecting to our site. Web pages that require an SSL connection
generally start with "https" instead of "http,
although some pages and frames within pages may be encrypted even
without the https address. Your browser's help files can show
you how to verify whether a particular page utilizes SSL. For
more information on SSL, please visit the Netscape Web site at
http://home.netscape.com/security/techbriefs/ssl.html.
Every time you place an order, a confirmation regarding your
order status will be provided within your Client Administration.
You will know exactly when we have received your order, when the
printing job is completed and even when we submit your documents
to our partner carriers for shipping. Once your order has been
submitted to the carrier, all delivery service and tracking information
is provided by the carrier.
While Evans Consulting Group, Inc. encourages all third parties
involved to conform to our security practices, we cannot and do
not assume any responsibility for any actions or omissions of
third parties with respect to security.
2. Our Privacy Policy on the Information We Gather
In order to use the Services, each Customer is required to provide
us with an email address and a unique password. In addition, when
placing an order with Evans Consulting Group, Inc., each Customer
is required to provide us with personally identifying and other
information such as the Customer's name, phone number, address,
payment information (including credit card information), and shipping
information (such as third party shipping addresses and shipping
preferences). This information is used to contact the customer
in the normal course of business (i.e., shipping documents and
emailing confirmation letters).
IGROWyourBiz.com also collects non-personally identifiable information
such as aggregate use statistics, for internal evaluation of our
services. We collect such non-personally identifiable information
in part through the use of "cookies" (small text files
placed on your computer's hard drive). Cookies are used to temporarily
identify users as "logged in" to our secure servers.
A user's refusal of cookies would render the site unusable, since
our databases would no longer be able to identify that user as
"logged in."
The Services are neither directed toward children (under thirteen
years of age), nor is it made available to children. We do not
knowingly collect any personally identifiable information or accept
orders from children.
How We Use, and Do Not Use, the Information We Gather
Please take some time to familiarize yourself with the different
ways Evans Consulting Group, Inc. uses the information that it
gathers. Evans Consulting Group, Inc. does not share any personally
identifiable information with third party providers.
(a) How we use (and do not use) non-personally identifiable information
We use non-personally identifiable information in aggregate form
to build higher quality, more useful Services by performing statistical
analyses of the collective characteristics and behavior of our
Customers and visitors, and by measuring demographics and interests
regarding specific areas of the Evans Consulting Group, Inc. web
site. We may provide statistical information based on this data
to advertisers, affiliates, and other current and potential business
partners.
The Evans Consulting Group, Inc. web site may contain links to
other Internet web sites, including co branded or other affiliated
sites which may or may not be owned or operated by Evans Consulting
Group, Inc. Unless otherwise explicitly stated, we are not responsible
for the privacy practices or the content of such web sites, including
such sites' use of any information (such as IP number, browser
type, or operating system) collected when visitors to the Evans
Consulting Group, Inc. web site click through links to those sites.
Even though such information might not identify you personally,
we strongly encourage you to become familiar with the privacy
practices of those sites.
(b) How we use (and do not use) personally identifiable information
Evans Consulting Group, Inc. provides notice to potential customers
that personally identifiable information will be collected when
a Customer places an order in order to process such order; moreover,
this Security and Privacy Policy itself serves as notice that
such information is collected under those circumstances.
Evans Consulting Group, Inc. believes that all emails it sends
to you after you sign up for an account are designed to help you
best use the Services. The solicitations are limited in that they,
among other things, will clearly indicate the originator of the
e-mail and provide the customer with a method of "opting
out" of receiving future communications of a similar nature.
PLEASE NOTE that despite the disclosure limitation above, Evans
Consulting Group, Inc. reserves the right to disclose information
or documents concerning or submitted by any Customer as we reasonably
feel is necessary to protect our systems or business, including
but not limited to complying with judicial order or law enforcement
officials. Specifically, but without limitation, we reserve the
right to disclose such information or documents when a visitor
or Customer is in violation of our Terms and Conditions or other
published guidelines, or partakes (or is reasonably suspected
of partaking) in any infringing or illegal activity, even without
a subpoena, warrant, or other court order, and to disclose such
information in response to court and governmental orders, civil
subpoenas, discovery requests, and as otherwise required by law,
as well as in response to allegations of infringement or illegality.
We cooperate with law enforcement agencies in identifying those
who may be using our servers or services for illegal activities.
We also reserve the right to report any suspected illegal activity
to law enforcement for investigation or prosecution, or to suspend
or terminate your membership in connection with any suspected
illegal or infringing activity.
Surveys and Sweepstakes
Occasionally, IGROWyourBiz.com may conduct surveys in order to
better deliver advertisements and content and to better understand
your needs relating to the Services. We will not share your survey
information with any third party, except in aggregate form. In
addition, if we sponsor a contest/sweepstakes or promotion in
conjunction with a third party sponsor, we will post relevant
privacy information at the point of registration for that specific
contest/sweepstakes or promotion so you can determine whether
you wish to participate. Evans Consulting Group, Inc. will handle
personal information it receives as a result of a joint contest/sweepstakes
or promotion or where Evans Consulting Group, Inc. is the sole
sponsor in accordance with this privacy policy.
Changing Personally Identifiable Information
If you would like to change your personally identifiable information
in Evans Consulting Group, Inc.'s databases, you may do so through
the Services themselves, or by contacting us at service@iGROWyourBiz.com,
and we will use reasonable efforts to comply with your request.
Keep in mind, however, that there will be residual information
that will remain within Evans Consulting Group, Inc. databases,
access logs, and other records, which may or may not contain inaccurate
or outdated personally identifiable information. The residual
information will not be used for commercial purposes; however
Evans Consulting Group, Inc. reserves the right, from time to
time, to re-contact former users of the Services for the purpose
of informing them of changes in our service or hours of service.
