privacy policy

At The Paradise Media Group LLC we are committed to maintaining the privacy policy that we will not collect personal information about our Web site users. You may visit our web site and remain anonymous. Our software does not collect information that indicates to us your identity or your Web surfing habits. We limit the collection of information about our web site users to how many anonymous users viewed materials containing information and advertisements within each business category or web pages. Our advertisements are fixed in graphic format within the materials and are non-intrusive.

We recognize that our web site users have a right to maintain their privacy when using our web site.  The Paradise Media Group LLC collects only publicly available information about businesses in order to publish the information in an Internet business directory format for free public access. The following discloses our Web site information gathering and use practices.

All references to The Paradise Media Group LLC throughout this policy statement include, unless otherwise stated, all The Paradise Media Group LLC affiliated companies, successors and assigns.

Cookies

The Paradise Media Group LLC does not use cookies (or similar technologies) that provide data about our users other than the cookies used by standard web usage statistic generating programs.  A cookie is data that a Web site can send to your browser, which is stored on your computer’s hard disk drive. We understand that many users do not want anything installed in their computers because of justified concern about privacy abuse issues. Although cookie technology can enable a web site to perform many positive things, there have been published cases of privacy abuse using this technology. This is why we have established our privacy policy to provide our users with anonymity.

Users may set their browsers to notify them or decline the receipt of a cookie; however, certain features of other web sites may not function properly or be available when browsers are configured to disable cookies. Users must exercise caution when deciding to permit the use of “Cookies” since they are in effect, trusting that the permitted Web site will not abuse their privacy rights. There are several Internet firewall programs that have “Cookie” management software that permits users to refuse or remove “Cookies”.

How to Set Your Browser “Cookie” Preferences to protect your privacy:

Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.x: In the “TOOLS” menu, choose “INTERNET OPTIONS”. Then choose “PRIVACY”.  If you slide the lever to the highest privacy level, it will say: “Block all cookies” Cookies from all websites will be blocked. Existing cookies on your computer cannot be read by Web sites.”  By using the “EDIT” button, you may override cookie handling for individual web sites. Other Browsers: Contact the manufacturer of the browser for information.

The Paradise Media Group LLC uses such information to evaluate the use of our web site, and to continuously improve the content and services being provided. The general usage information collected cannot identify individual users and is useful only for measuring advertising exposure and web server performance.

In addition to requiring the use of a unique passcode or password, all payments processed through our Web site require personal transactional information provided by you to be sent in a "Secure Session" using Secure Socket Layer encryption technology. This technology encrypts - or scrambles - your financial or credit card account information to help prevent unauthorized parties from reading it. We regularly test and update our technology to help protect your personal information. When doing business with others, such as advertisers to whom you can link from our site, you should consider the separate security and privacy policies of those other sites.
