At www.hiddencalifornia.com, we
recognize that privacy of your personal
information is important. Here is
information on what types of personal
information we may receive and collect
when you use and visit
www.hiddencalifornia.com, and how we
safeguard your information. We never sell
your personal information to third
parties.
We do use third party advertisements
on www.hiddencalifornia.com to support our
site. Some of these advertisers may use
technology such as cookies and web beacons
when they advertise on our site, which
will also send these advertisers (such as
Google through the Google AdSense program)
information including your IP address,
your ISP, the browser you used to visit
our site, and in some cases, whether you
have Flash installed. This is generally
used for geotargeting purposes (showing
New York real estate ads to someone in New
York, for example) or showing certain ads
based on specific sites visited (such as
showing cooking ads to someone who
frequents cooking sites).
We also may use DART cookies for ad
serving through Google's DoubleClick,
which places a cookie on your computer
when you are browsing the web and visit a
site using DoubleClick advertising
(including some Google AdSense
advertisements). This cookie is used to
serve ads specific to you and your
interests ("interest based targeting").
The ads served will be targeted based on
your previous browsing history (For
example, if you have been viewing sites
about visiting Las Vegas, you may see Las
Vegas hotel advertisements when viewing a
non-related site, such as on a site about
hockey). DART uses "non personally
identifiable information". It does NOT
track personal information about you, such
as your name, email address, physical
address, telephone number, social security
numbers, bank account numbers or credit
card numbers. You can opt-out of this ad
serving on all sites using this
advertising by visiting
http://www.doubleclick.com/privacy/dart_adserving.aspx
You can chose to disable or
selectively turn off our cookies or
third-party cookies in your browser
settings, or by managing preferences in
programs such as Norton Internet Security.
However, this can affect how you are able
to interact with our site as well as other
websites. This could include the inability
to login to services or programs, such as
logging into forums or accounts.
Deleting cookies does not mean you
are permanently opted out of any
advertising program. Unless you have
settings that disallow cookies, the next
time you visit a site running the
advertisements, a new cookie will be
added.
