Lynn Creative Inc. is the sole owner of the information collected on this site except where noted otherwise. We have created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to your privacy and the protection of your information.

Our Privacy Policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we collect, use and safeguard the personal information you provide to us.

 

Section 1. What Information Do We Collect?
When you visit our Web site you may provide us with two types of information:

1) Personally identifying information from you only if you voluntarily submit such information to us on contact forms, survey information and/or site registrations.

2) Web Site Use (see Section 3) information collected on an aggregate basis as you and others browse our Web site.

Section 2. Personal Information
The privacy of individuals who visit our website or provide an e-mail address, name, home address or other Personal Information to register to receive newsletters, register to write a review, or register to enter a sweepstake, contest or survey and the like is a matter of importance to us. The following outlines our policies with regard to the disclosure and protection of your private Personal Information.

We will never share, sell, or rent individual personal information with anyone without your advance permission or unless ordered by a court of law. Information submitted to us is only available to employees managing this information for purposes of contacting you or sending you emails based on your request for information and to contracted service providers for purposes of providing services relating to our communications with you.

Section 3. Website Use Information
Similar to other Web sites, we use a standard technology called "cookies" (see explanation below) and Web server logs to collect information about how our Web site is used. Information gathered through cookies and Web server logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed and time spent at our Web site. This information is collected on an aggregate basis. None of this information is associated with you as an individual. Information of this nature collected by Bikekinetix® shall be used for statistical purposes only. We may disclose anonymous aggregate information (for example, the percentage of our viewers that visit the Special Features section of our Web site) to third parties such as our advertisers or business partners.

In order to provide better service when visitors return to our site, Bikekinetix® may use cookies to determine whether you have been to our Web site before, to save your password, to store visitors' preferences and information about such things as items added to a user's shopping cart, what pages users visit, for advertising efficiency, and past user activity at bikekinetix.com. "Cookies" are tiny pieces of information stored by your browser on your computer's hard drive. This information also assists us in designing and arranging our Web pages in the most user-friendly manner and to continually improve our Web site to better meet the needs of our site visitors.

Like most standard Web site servers we use log files. This includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses, etc. are not linked to personally identifiable information. We may use a tracking utility that uses log files to analyze user movement. Web server logs allow us to count how many people visit our Web site and evaluate our Web site's visitor capacity. Upon review of our web server logs, if a query looks similar to automated requests from a computer robot, spider, virus or spyware application coming from your ISP's IP Range we do lookup IP Address and host information to block access to, protect our server as well as report these violations. Once you leave our site, we do not track you.

Companies which place advertisements on our pages or offer products on our Web site may set and access their cookies on your computer while you are on our Web site. The use of cookies by these companies is not subject to this Privacy Policy.

Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, Bikekinetix® may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on Bikekinetix.com.

If you want to disable cookies, there is a simple procedure in most Internet browsers that allow you to turn off cookies. Please remember however, that cookies may be required to allow you to use certain features of our site.

Section 4. Website Referral Service
If a user elects to use our referral service for informing a friend about our site, we ask them for the friend's name and email address. Bikekinetix® reserves the right to send the friend a one-time email inviting them to visit the site. Bikekinetix.com stores this information for the sole purpose of sending this one-time email [and tracking the success of our referral program].

Section 5. Opt Out or Modify Information
Each email sent from us contains an easy, automated way for you to cease receiving email from us. If you wish to do this, simply follow the instructions at the end of any email.

E-mail that you may send to us, or forms that you may submit, may not be secure unless we advise you that security measures will be in place prior to your transmitting the information. For that reason, we ask that you do not send confidential information such as Social Security or account numbers to us through an unsecured E-mail.

Section 6. Security
We use commercially reasonable tools and techniques to protect against unauthorized access to our systems. Also, we restrict access to Personal Information to those who need such access in the course of their duties for us.

Your own efforts to protect against unauthorized access play an important role in protecting the security of your Personal Information. You should use commercially available virus protection software and check your system for "Web Bugs". Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer, and always log out of any site when viewing Personal Information.

Section 7. Children Under 13
We care about the safety of children. We won't knowingly allow anyone under 13 to provide us any personally identifying information. Children should always get permission from their parents before sending any information about themselves (such as their names, e-mail addresses, and phone numbers) over the Internet, to us or to anyone else. We encourage you to become involved in your children's online experience.

Section 8. Privacy Policy Changes
Bikekinetix.com may need to change this privacy policy from time to time, without prior notice in order to address new issues, evolving technologies and basic changes on our sites.
