In general, you can visit RPG.SOCIALMUD.COM without telling us who you are or revealing any personal information about yourself. We track the Internet address of the domains from which people visit us and analyze this data for trends and statistics, but the individual user remains anonymous.

To protect your privacy, we have adopted the following principles:


INFORMATION

    We want to give you information about our privacy policy and assure you that we take reasonable steps to see that it is followed within our company.


COMMITMENT

    We are committed to privacy and we are actively involved in and support current industry initiatives to preserve individual privacy rights on the Internet. Personal data privacy is a new and evolving area, and RPG.SOCIALMUD.COM is evolving to meet these demands. Mistakes are possible; mis communication is possible. If you have any comments or questions regarding our privacy policy, please contact us. We will address any issue to the best of our abilities.


INFORMATION COLLECTION & USE

    RPG.SOCIALMUD.COM is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in this statement. RPG.SOCIALMUD.COM collects information from its users at several different points on the website.


ORDER

    We request information from the user on our order form. Here a user must provide contact information (like name and email address). Our company does not collect the financial information (like credit card numbers, expiration date) at our site or by the order process. We use the payment gateway service of a trusted 3rd party. This information is used for billing purposes and to fill customer's orders. If we have trouble processing an order, this contact information is used to get in touch with the user.


COOKIES

    A cookie is a piece of data stored on your hard drive containing information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information while on our site. Once you close your browser, the cookie simply terminates. For instance, by setting a cookie on our site, you would not have to log in a password more than once, thereby saving time while on our site.

    If you reject the cookie, you may still use our site. The drawback to this is that you will be limited in some areas of our site.

    We also use cookies for maintaining our Affiliate Program. In this case the affiliate ID of our partner will be stored on your computer only. This is to track the leads and sales and to pay commissions to our referrals.

    Please enable cookies to use all the benefits from the RPG.SOCIALMUD.COM website!

    Some of our business partners use cookies on our site (for example, advertisers). However, we have no access to or control over these cookies.


LOG FILES

    We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's movement, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.


SHARING

    We will share aggregated demographic information with our partners and advertisers. This is not linked to any personal information that can identify any individual person.

    We use a credit card processing company to bill users for goods and services. This company does not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.

    We partner with another party to provide specific services. When the user signs up for these services, we will share names, or other contact information that is necessary for the third party to provide these services.

    These parties are not allowed to use personally identifiable information except for the purpose of providing these services.


LINKS

    This website contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we, RPG.SOCIALMUD.COM, are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every website that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by RPG.SOCIALMUD.COM.


NEWSLETTER

    If a user wishes to subscribe to our newsletter, we ask for contact information such as name and email address.


SURVEYS AND CONTESTS

    From time-to-time our site requests information from users via surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information. Information requested may include contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code, age level). Contact information will be used to notify the winners and award prizes. Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site.


TELL-A-FRIEND

    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. RPG.SOCIALMUD.COM will automatically send the friend a one-time email inviting them to visit the site. RPG.SOCIALMUD.COM stores this information for the sole purpose of sending this one-time email. The friend may contact RPG.SOCIALMUD.COM to request the removal of this information from our database.


SECURITY

    This website takes every precaution to protect our users' information. When you submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both on-line and off-line.

    If you have any questions about the security at our website, you can send us an email.


SPECIAL OFFERS

    We send all new members a welcoming email to verify password and username. Established members will occasionally receive information on products, services, special deals, and a newsletter. Out of respect for the privacy of our users we present the option to not receive these types of communications. Please see our choice and opt-out below.


SITE AND SERVICE UPDATES

    We also send the user site and service announcement updates. Members are not able to un-subscribe from service announcements, which contain important information about the service. We communicate with the user to provide requested services and in regards to issues relating to their account via email.


CORRECTION/UPDATING PERSONAL INFORMATION

    If a user's personally identifiable information changes (such as your zip code), or if a user no longer desires our service, we will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update or remove that user's personal data provided to us. This can usually be done at the member information page or by sending us an email.


CHOICE/OPT-OUT

    Our users are given the opportunity to 'opt-out' of having their information used for purposes not directly related to our site at the point where we ask for the information. For example, our order form has an 'opt-out' mechanism so users who buy a product from us, but don't want any marketing material, can keep their email address off of our lists.

    Users who no longer wish to receive our newsletter or promotional materials from our partners may opt-out of receiving these communications.

    Users of our site are always notified when their information is being collected by any outside parties. We do this so our users can make an informed choice as to whether they should proceed with services that require an outside party, or not.


NOTIFICATION OF CHANGES

    If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on our website so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users by way of an email. Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected.


Thank you for your support of these policies and of RPG.SOCIALMUD.COM!
