As is true of most Sites, we gather certain information automatically and store it in log files.

Disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information

Our practices with respect to the disclosure of personally identifiable information include the following:

Consent. We may disclose your personally identifiable information to third parties with your express consent.

Agents/Service Providers. We use third party service providers to assist us in providing our Services and Sites, including database backup providers to protect our data, and fraud prevention services. We may disclose your personally identifiable information to third parties who complete transactions or perform services on our behalf or for your benefit. We may utilize the services of third parties to verify customer data, or to supplement other information we have collected. We may also contract with third parties to host our Sites and to conduct market research. All service providers are authorized to use your personally identifiable information only as necessary to provide their respective services to us, and are obligated to protect your personally identifiable information under contract terms which are no less protective than those set forth in this Policy.

Legal Process. We may disclose your personally identifiable information as required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or other legal process, or when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request.

Certain Business Transfers. Your personally identifiable information may be disclosed as part of a corporate business transaction, such as a merger, acquisition, joint venture, or financing or sale of JvGeniusPortal assets, and could be transferred to a third party as one of the business assets in such a transaction. It may also be disclosed in the event of insolvency, bankruptcy or receivership. We will use reasonable efforts to direct any such transferee to use your personally identifiable information in a manner that is consistent with our Privacy Policy.

You will be notified via email and/or a prominent notice on our Site of any change in ownership or uses of your personally identifiable information, as well as any resulting choices you may have regarding your personally identifiable information.

Security

The security of your personally identifiable information is important to us. When you enter sensitive information such as credit card number on our registration or order forms, we encrypt that information using SSL.

We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personally identifiable information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personally identifiable information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.


Links to Other Sites

If you click on a link to a third party site you will leave our site and go to the site you selected. Because we cannot control the activities of third parties, we cannot accept responsibility for any use of your personally identifiable information by such third parties, and we cannot guarantee that they will adhere to the same privacy practices as us. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any other site you visit or service provider from whom you request services.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here, or by means of a notice on the Site.

Under the DMCA, the bona fide owner of copyrighted materials who has a good faith belief that their copyright has been infringed may contact not only the person or entity infringing on their copyright, but may also contact the designated agent of an Internet Service Provider (“ISP”) to report the alleged infringements of protected works, when such alleged infringements appear on pages contained within the system of the Internet Service Provider.

Upon receipt of a properly filed complaint under the DMCA, the owner and/or the ISP of this website will block access to the allegedly infringing material. The website owner and/or the ISP will forward a copy of the notification of claimed copyright infringement to the alleged infringer.

Anti Spam Policy


We dislike unsolicited commercial email (UCE), otherwise known as spam or junk email, as much as you do. Maybe more, since our team gets lots of email every day and there's no bigger waste of time than deleting all that junk!

We consider spam to be an offense and disservice to the entire Internet community. This is why we fully endorse and comply with all the requirements of the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 (Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing Act). We also comply with all other applicable unsolicited commercial email laws.

How does this affect you? When you subscribe to our digital/electronic newsletters or other online communications from us and through our website, we always give you the option to unsubscribe. You can do that immediately, or you can do that any time in the future simply by clicking a link in the email you receive from us.

(Of course, if you send us a support email, an email about billing, or any other individualized email, we will naturally respond personally.)

If you have questions, concerns or feedback about this anti-spam policy, just ask.

Send an email to support@JvGeniusPortal.com and let us know what's on your mind.
