Privacy Policy
This site is owned and operated by Holidaze, located in Plano, Texas. Your privacy on the Internet is of the utmost importance to us. At Holidaze, we want to make your experience online satisfying and safe. Because we gather certain types of information about our users, we feel you should fully understand the terms and conditions surrounding the capture and use of that information. This privacy statement discloses what information we gather and how we use it.
Information we gather and track:
Holidaze gathers two types of information about users:
1. Information that users provide through optional, voluntary submissions.
These are voluntary submissions to receive our electronic newsletters, or through the contact form on our website.
2. Information Holidaze gathers through aggregated tracking
This information is derived mainly by tallying page views throughout our site. This information allows us to better tailor our content to visitors’ needs. Under no circumstances does Holidaze divulge any information about an individual user to a third party.
Holidaze gathers user information in the following processes:
Optional Voluntary Information
We offer the following free services, which require some type of voluntary submission of personal information by users:
1. Electronic newsletters
We offer a free electronic newsletter to users. Holidaze gathers the email addresses of users who voluntarily subscribe. Users may remove themselves from this mailing list by using the contact form on our home page.
2. Contact Form
Our site users can choose to electronically send a message to Holidaze, using the contact form on our website. The user must provide their email address. This information is used only to respond to the individual who sent the email. The information is not used for any other purpose.
3. User Accounts
Our customers may voluntarily set up a user account with us. This enables them to place their orders with greater convenience. Information provided for this purpose will not be shared with any third party.
Usage Tracking
Holidaze tracks user traffic patterns throughout our site. However, we do not correlate this information with data about individual users. Holidaze does break down overall usage statistics according to a user’s domain name, browser type, and MIME type by reading this information from the browser string (information contained in every user’s browser). Holidaze sometimes tracks and catalogs the search terms that users enter in our Search function, but this tracking is never associated with individual users. We use tracking information to determine which areas of our site users like and don’t like based on traffic to those areas. We do not track what individual users read, but rather how well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better service for you.
