The Internet is an amazing tool. It has the power to change the way we live, and we're starting to see that potential today. With only a few mouse-clicks, you can follow the news, look up facts, buy goods and services, and communicate with others from around the world. It's important to the Steeplechase Resident Homeowners' Association to help our members retain their privacy when they take advantage of all the Internet has to offer.
To protect your privacy, Steeplechase.org follows five principles in accordance with worldwide practices for Member privacy and data protection.
We will ask you when we need information that personally identifies you (Personal Information) or allows us to contact you. Generally this information is requested when you are asked to register before using the community database, downloading the Thorough-Read News, or ordering e-mail newsletters. We use your Personal Information for three primary purposes:
If you choose not to register or provide personal information, you can still use most of Steeplechase.org. But you will not be able to access areas that require registration.
If you decide to register, you will be able to select the information you want to receive from Steeplechase.org by subscribing to various services, like our electronic newsletters.
Steeplechase.org never allows other companies to offer our registered members information about their products and services.
We will provide you with the means to ensure that your personal information is correct and current. You may review and update this information at any time by sending an e-mail to admin@steeplechase.org or checking on the interactive community directory.
Steeplechase.org strictly protects the security of your personal information and honors your choices for its intended use. We carefully protect your data from loss, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure, alteration, or destruction.
If for some reason you believe Steeplechase.org has not adhered to these principles, please notify us by e-mail at admin@steeplechase.org, and we will do our best to determine and correct the problem promptly. Be certain the words Privacy Policy are in the Subject line.
Parents or guardians: we want to help you guard your children's privacy. We encourage you to talk to your children about safe and responsible use of their Personal Information while using the Internet. You can find a wealth of information at the microsoft.com Internet Safety site.
As mentioned above, every registered member has a unique personal profile. Each profile is assigned a unique personal identification number, which helps us ensure that only you can access your profile. When you register, we create your profile, assign a personal identification number, then send this personal identification number back to your hard drive in the form of a cookie, which is a very small bit of code. This code is uniquely yours. It enables seamless travel across Steeplechase.org, allowing you to search the community directory, order and view newsletters, and join mailing lists without having to fill out registration forms with information you've already provided. Even if you switch computers, you won't have to reregister - just use your username (e.g., firstname.lastname) and password to identify yourself.
