FAQ About Your Privacy at Hammock.com

What information do you collect about me?

Like most Web sites we use log files to capture information to help us understand our site better. This means we may collect your Internet protocol (IP) address; browser type; the page you came to Hammock.com from (referring page); type of operating system; date/time stamp; and number of clicks. We use this information to analyze trends, administer the site, track aggregate movement on the site, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate, but not individual, use. This type of information that we collect is not linked to personally identifiable information.

We may use email addresses voluntarily given to Hammock employees to present opt-in opportunities for Hammock-produced newsletters. Email addresses are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with outside parties.

Who owns the information you collect on Hammock.com? Who can use it?

Hammock Inc. is the sole owner of the information collected on Hammock.com. We will only use information for the purpose for which it was given — in other words, we will only use your email address to send you the newsletter and not to advertise. We will not share information you share with us on Hammock.com with another party without your permission.

Our commitment to data security

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

Will you share my personal information?

Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law, wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on our website.

What about links to other sites?

Hammock.com contains links to other sites. Hammock Inc. is not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites. We encourage you to be aware and to read the privacy statements of each and every Web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by Hammock.com.

Forms, Surveys and Contests

Our site may request information from users via forms, 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. The requested information typically includes contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as ZIP code). Contact information will be used to notify winners and award prizes. Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site. Users’ personally identifiable information is not shared with third parties unless we give prior notice and choice. Though we may use an intermediary to conduct these surveys or contests, they may not use users’ personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.

Security

This Web site takes every precaution to protect our users’ information. When users submit sensitive information via the Web site, their information is protected both online and off-line.

Will you change this privacy policy? How will I know?

If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post the new policy on this website. The current privacy policy posted on Hammock.com supersedes any previous privacy policies.
