Privacy policy and legal notice

Privacy

brampton.com is free for use by individual web users. No registration is required to use the search engine and/or interface pages of brampton.com.

The privacy of our users is important to us. brampton.com does not collect any personally identifying information about users, except that which is knowingly and specifically supplied to us by the user. We will not disclose any personal information about users to any outside parties unless the user was advised of this possibility before providing the personal information.

brampton.com reserves the right to share general demographic information with advertisers or potential advertisers; however, profiles of individual users are not shared.

We reserve the right to change this Privacy Policy from time to time by updating this posting. Please check this Privacy Policy periodically for changes. Your continued use of this site following the posting of changes to this Privacy Policy will mean you accept those changes.

If you are under 18, be sure to obtain your parent's or guardian's permission before you send any information about yourself (your name, address, e-mail address, etc.) to us or anyone else over the Internet. We encourage parents to get involved with their children's online usage and to be aware of the activities in which they are participating.

Contests

Users participating in brampton.com contests may be required to submit varying degrees of personal information, depending upon the nature of the particular contest. The specific information to be collected and how it will be used will be disclosed in the general contest rules and regulations and/or in the referring contest page or newsletter. The names, addresses and photograph or likeness of contest winners may be reproduced on the site or in other advertising materials.

Please carefully read the rules and regulations of individual contests as they appear on the site.

Cookies

Cookies are pieces of information that a Web site transfers to an individual's hard disk for record-keeping purposes. Cookies can make the Web more useful by storing information about your preferences on a particular site, like what items you have in a "shopping cart" for an online store. The use of cookies is an industry standard, and many major Web sites use them to provide great features for their customers.

The brampton.com has two primary uses for its cookies. First, we use them to specify unique preferences. Secondly, we use cookies to track user trends and patterns. This helps us better understand and improve areas of the brampton.com Network service that our users find valuable. While both of these activities depend on the use of a "cookie," visitors to the brampton.com Network always have the option of disabling cookies via their browser preferences.

Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, note that some parts of the brampton.com Network service may not function properly if you refuse cookies. brampton.com uses cookies to better understand how our site is used, to make sure our ads are served correctly, and to improve the performance of our site for our users.

Surveys

From time to time, brampton.com may conduct online surveys for internal purposes or for third-parties, to gather general information about users and/or their views. Participation in these surveys is voluntary; no information will be collected except that which is knowingly supplied by the user. Identifying personal information will not be shared.

These privacy policies refer to areas and services offered by brampton.com at the domain (web address) www.brampton.com. brampton.com partner sites may post their own privacy policies. Users are encouraged to take the time to familiarize themselves with the privacy policies of websites outside the brampton.com site.

Any questions about our privacy policies should be forwarded to info@brampton.com.

External links

Users should be aware that when you are on the brampton.com, you could be directed to other sites that are beyond our control. There are links to other sites from the brampton.com Network pages that take you outside our service. For example, if you "click" on a banner advertisement or a brampton.com Network search result, the "click" takes you off the brampton.com Network site. This includes links from advertisers, sponsors and partners that may use the brampton.com Network’s logo as part of a co-branding agreement. These other sites may send their own cookies to users, collect data or solicit personal information. Always be aware of where you end up!

The brampton.com Network's policy does not extend to anything that is inherent in the operation of the Internet, and therefore beyond the brampton.com Network's control, and is not to be applied in any manner contrary to applicable law or governmental regulation.
