Fantasy Forest Kennels
(dba
www.fantasyforestkennels.com
) has
put in place the following Online Privacy Policy. This policy covers
Fantasy Forest Kennels
and its subsidiaries. Fantasy Forest Kennels
will continue to protect customer information
collected from its website, and e-mail consistent with federal laws
and with federal regulations issued by the Federal Communications
Commission.
Fantasy Forest Kennels
's Online Privacy Policy
Protecting privacy is not a new
endeavor for Fantasy Forest Kennels
. Fantasy Forest Kennels
has a
long-standing tradition of recognizing and protecting the privacy of
customers who use its services. The company maintains strict
customer information privacy policies and uses state of the art
technologies to safeguard customer information and communications
from unauthorized intrusions.
Fantasy Forest Kennels
recognizes
that the growth of online services, including Internet services, has
created additional privacy concerns, particularly for consumers.
Online privacy concerns focus
primarily on the protection of "customer identifiable" information
which an individual or other customer reasonably expects to be kept
private. As the term suggests, "customer identifiable" information
is information that, when associated with an individual identifies
that individual, for example, a customer's name, address, telephone
number, and e-mail address.
Some Internet users may also wish to
know who can learn about what they do on the Internet, even when
that online behavior is not directly linked to any information that
identifies an individual. For example, advertisers may observe
whether visitors to a Web site see or respond to online advertising
without knowing who those visitors are.
It is common practice and often a
necessity for companies, governments, or other organizations to
collect customer identifiable information in order to conduct
business and offer services. For example, a telecommunications
provider may collect customer identifiable information, such as
name, address, telephone number, and a variety of other information
in the course of billing and providing telephone service to a
customer.
Some activities on the Internet follow
very familiar patterns. Consumers signing up for an Internet access
service, for example, are usually asked to provide name, address,
telephone number and credit card and other information that is
typical when the consumer orders a product or service. Similarly,
business Web sites may ask visitors to supply information about
themselves, particularly when information, services or merchandise
are requested, but often simply to be able to better target the
company's services to the customer's interests and requirements.

How Fantasy Forest Kennels
Protects Your Privacy Online
Collection and Use: Fantasy Forest Kennels will collect and use customer identifiable information
for billing purposes, to provide and change service, to anticipate
and resolve problems with your service, or to create and inform you
of products and services that better meet your needs. This means
that Fantasy Forest Kennels
may use your customer identifiable
information, in conjunction with information available from other
sources, to market new services to you that we think will be of
interest to you, but we will not disclose your customer identifiable
information to third parties who want to market products to you.
When you access the Internet, the
computers that host Web sites you visit (Web servers) automatically
receive some anonymous information. This "usage data" may include a
record of which pages a Web browser has visited. Fantasy Forest Kennels servers receive usage data when customers visit the
Fantasy Forest Kennels
Web site. Fantasy Forest Kennels
may use
usage data to provide advertising about goods and services that may
be of interest to Fantasy Forest Kennels
customers, or to provide
customized features and services. Fantasy Forest Kennels
will not
use information about your activities on the Internet together with
any information that identifies you without your consent.
Fantasy Forest Kennels
and its
advertisers may use various kinds of software devices to collect
information about Internet use. Small files called "cookies" may be
attached to your Web browser. These files identify your browser and
save information such as passwords so that Web sites can recognize
you. You can set your browser to disable cookies, but the Fantasy Forest Kennels Web site (and other Web sites) may not work properly
if you do this. For more information about cookies,
click here.
In addition, on some Web sites,
Fantasy Forest Kennels
and its advertisers may use small bits of
code called "one-pixel gifs," or "clear gifs" embedded in some Web
pages, to make cookies more effective. Fantasy Forest Kennels
will
not associate the information these software devices collect with
your name or email address.
Disclosure: Fantasy Forest Kennels will not sell, trade, or disclose to third parties any
customer identifiable information derived from the registration for
or use of an Fantasy Forest Kennels
online service -- including
customer names and addresses -- without the consent of the customer
(except as required by subpoena, search warrant, or other legal
process or in the case of imminent physical harm to the customer or
others). When Fantasy Forest Kennels
uses other agents, contractors
or companies to perform services on its behalf, Fantasy Forest Kennels
will ensure that the company protects your customer
identifiable information consistent with this Policy. If Fantasy Forest Kennels includes your name and any other customer identifiable
information in a directory that Fantasy Forest Kennels
creates from
information we receive as an online service provider, the company
will give you the opportunity to have your information excluded from
that directory. Business directories that Fantasy Forest Kennels
creates may, however, contain information obtained from other
sources.
Security: Fantasy Forest Kennels
has implemented technology and security features and
strict policy guidelines to safeguard the privacy of your customer
identifiable information from unauthorized access or improper use,
and we will continue to enhance our security procedures as new
technology becomes available.
E-mail Contents:
The company will not read or disclose to third parties
private e-mail communications that are transmitted using Fantasy Forest Kennels services except as required to operate the service or
as otherwise authorized by law.
Improper Conduct: Fantasy Forest Kennels may also use customer identifiable information to
investigate and help prevent potentially unlawful activity or
activity that threatens the network or otherwise violates the
customer agreement for that service.
Account Information: Fantasy Forest Kennels honors requests from customers to review all customer
identifiable information maintained in reasonably retrievable form,
which currently consists of your name, address, e-mail address,
telephone number and/or billing information, and will correct any
such information which may be inaccurate. Customers may verify that
appropriate corrections have been made.

any changes that we make.

Additional Privacy Protections for Children Using the Internet
Fantasy Forest Kennels
joins the
industry in recognizing that children, including young teens, may
not be able to make informed choices about personal information
requested online.
Accordingly, Fantasy Forest Kennels
does not target children or teenagers (younger than eighteen years
of age) for collection of information online. Fantasy Forest Kennels
does not solicit or collect customer identifiable
information targeted at children and teenagers under eighteen and
does not allow anyone else to do so on the Fantasy Forest Kennels
Web site. In addition, the editorial content of the Fantasy Forest Kennels Web site designed for children will not knowingly
promote or link to any third party Web site that collects customer
identifiable information unless that Web site publishes a privacy
policy that is easily accessible.
In addition, on the Fantasy Forest Kennels Web site, Fantasy Forest Kennels
will encourage
children to seek the consent of their parents before providing any
information about themselves or their households to anyone on the
Internet.
Fantasy Forest Kennels
encourages
parents to take an active role to protect the privacy and security
of their children and to prevent the inappropriate use of
information about their children. Fantasy Forest Kennels
supports
the development of technologies that help parents to control the
collection and use of personal information from children who use
online services in their households.
Finally, Fantasy Forest Kennels
complies with all Federal laws and regulations, including the
Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, which requires the consent
of a parent or guardian for the collection of personally
identifiable information from children under 13 without the consent
of a parent or guardian.
