Privacy Policy
This policy discloses what information we gather about you when you
visit any of our Web sites (all Delta Visuals sites) or buy
products directly from us. It describes how we use that information
and how you can control it. Our privacy policy addresses:
Information
Delta Visuals gathers and tracks
Delta Visuals collects two kinds of information about users: 1) data that
users volunteer by signing up to receive news and product information,
entering contests, completing surveys, downloading demo versions of
Delta Visuals software, or buying directly from us; and 2) aggregated
tracking data we collect when users interact with us.
Personal information
We use the personal information you provide voluntarily to send
information you've requested and to fulfill orders. The specific use
of your personal information varies, depending on how you contact us:
- When you sign up to receive Delta Visuals Network newsletters and/or
Delta Visuals product and company news, you must provide your name, email
address, and a password. We never sell or rent your email address or
other personally identifiable information you provide when
subscribing to our lists.
- When you register for a Delta Visuals conference, or sign up for a
conference email list, we will send you email announcements and
updates about Delta Visuals conferences. We send conference brochures to
past conference attendees.
- When you order books directly from us, or request book catalogs,
we add you to our snailmail list, and we send you catalogs and other
marketing pieces.
- When you download demo versions of Delta Visuals software, we may
provide a distributor with your contact information. Our software
distributors are restricted from selling or re-using the contact
information we share with them. We provide contact information only
for users who actually download software.
- When you enter a contest, we may ask for your name, address, and
email address so we can administer the contest and notify winners.
We share customer information only with affiliated companies and as
described below:
- With third parties we retain to perform functions on our behalf,
such as fulfilling orders, processing credit card payments, managing
mailing lists, and delivering packages. These parties are restricted
from using your information for any other purpose.
- We rent our snailmail list for one-time use to third parties we
deem relevant and appropriate. We do not rent or sell our email
lists.
- We release personal information when we believe that release is
appropriate to comply with the law, or to protect the rights,
property, or safety of Delta Visuals & Associates, our users, or others.
This may include exchanging information with other companies and
organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
Aggregated tracking
information
We analyze visitors' use of our sites by tracking information such as
pageviews, traffic flow, search terms, and click through. We use this
information to improve our sites. We also share this anonymous traffic
and demographic information in aggregate form with advertisers and
other business partners. We do not share any information with
advertisers that can identify an individual user.
Cookies
A cookie is a small data file that we transfer to your computer's hard
drive through your web browser when you visit our sites. Cookies

On Delta Visuals Network sites, we and some of our advertisers use a
third-party ad server to display ads. These ads may contain cookies.
The ad server receives these cookies, and we don't have access to
them.
You can set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies or to

Notification of Changes
If we change our Privacy Policy, we will post those changes on all
Delta Visuals sites. If we decide to
use personally identifiable information in a manner different from
that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users via
email. Users will be able to opt out of any new use of their personal
information.
