Privacy

BLUU is very sensitive to privacy issues on the Internet. We believe it is important that you understand how we treat the information you may provide to us. Unless specifically stated otherwise, the information you provide is never shared with anyone other than BLUU employees or authorized contractors.

This privacy statement applies to information collected by web addresses in the goBLUU.com, goBLUU.net, and other domains owned and operated by BLUU.

How We Gather Information

If you purchase a product or service from us, we request certain personally identifiable information from you on our order form. You must provide contact information (such as name, email, and shipping address) and financial information (such as credit card number, expiration date). We use this information for billing purposes and to fill your orders. If we have trouble processing an order, we will use this information to contact you. We also use the mailing address to send you conference brochures and other items of interest.

If you fill out a form on one of our webpages and submit it, we request certain personally identifiable information from you. You must provide contact information (such as name, e-mail, and shipping address). We use this information for purposes of contacting you about problems you may be experiencing with our website, providing newsletters, or promotional e-mails that you may have signed up to receive.

BLUU may occasionally provide you the opportunity to participate in contests or surveys on our site. If you participate, we may request certain personally identifiable information from you. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and you therefore have a choice whether or not to disclose this information. The requested information typically includes contact and demographic information such as name and address. We may share aggregated demographic information about our user base with our partners and advertisers. This information does not identify individual users.

Cookies

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a users computer for record-keeping purposes. We do not use cookies on our site.

How We Protect Your Personal Information

BLUU safeguards the security of the data you send us with physical, electronic, and managerial procedures. Likewise, we urge you to take every precaution to protect your personal data when you are on the Internet. Change your passwords often, use a combination of letters, numbers and symbols, and make sure you use a secure browser.

The BLUU website uses SSL v3 and TLS v1 encryption on all web pages when requesting personally identifiable information containing credit card is submitted. This protects the confidentiality of your personal and credit card information as it is transmitted over the Internet.

BLUU does not store credit card numbers on our servers. Credit card numbers are submitted to a credit card authorization service. This service provides BLUU with credit card validation information only. We do not have access to your personal financial data.

BLUU may employ independent contractors to help manage data services, and such contractors may have access to data, similar to the access we give our employees. Also, BLUU may store sales account data, including personally identifiable information, with a third party application service provider.

Access To Your Personal Information

You may write to us using the “Contact” page to have the information changed or removed.

Newsletters And Promotional Email

If you no longer wish to receive our newsletters and promotional communications from BLUU, you may opt-out of receiving them by following the instructions included in each newsletter or communication.

Links To Other Sites

The BLUU web site contains links to other sites that are not owned or controlled by BLUU. Please be aware that BLUU is not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage you to be aware when you leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information.

Information Obtained From Third Parties

BLUU does not sell or trade your personal information. We may at times receive contact lists from other organizations. We may send mailings such as brochures to these addresses. Typically, these are one-time mailings, and the data is not entered into our database. If you want to remove yourself from the third party’s database, you must contact them directly. These mailings have a brochure code printed on the mailing label. By providing this code, we will be able to tell you from what provider we received your contact info.

Changes To This Privacy Statement

We reserve the right to modify this privacy statement at any time, so please review it frequently. If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement, the homepage, and other places we deem appropriate so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
