Privacy Policy

Web Site Privacy Policy

Dogtrainingonlinetips.com

Dogtrainingonlinetips.com, including subsidiaries, affiliates, employees and agents (“Website” or “Website Owner” or “we” or “us” or “our”) acknowledge that visitor (“visitor”) (cumulatively referred to as “you” or “your” hereinafter) privacy is important. This document, “Privacy Policy”, outlines the types of personal information we obtain and collect when you use our website, as well as some of the steps and procedures we take to protect this information.

“We do not disclose or reveal your personal information to outside marketers or advertisers.”

We make every effort to uphold the highest standards of decorum, fairness and integrity in all our operations and procedures. Likewise, we are dedicated and committed to protecting your information and privacy on our web site.

Visitors “Personal Information”:

We collect Personally Identifiable Information (PII) from the visitors to our web site only on a completely voluntary basis. PII collected may include names, postal addresses, email addresses, company names and telephone numbers.

PII is collected if you request information from us or subscribe to our email list.  The PII collected is reviewed within, used to improve the content of our website, notify you of updates, and/or reply to your inquiries.

Once PII is reviewed, it is securely destroyed or stored securely in our files. If we make material changes in the collection of PPI we will notify you by placing a notice on our website. PPI received from any visitor will be used only for in-house purposes and will not be sold or provided to third parties.

Advertisers, Cookies and Web Bugs:

We may use or make use of cookies to collect statistics and data about your visit. For example, the amount of time you stayed on our website, how you navigated throughout our website, and what kind of browser you are using. We may also use cookies to keep track of your shopping cart when you are on one of our client’s web sites.

Cookies are small pieces of text that are transferred to your computer’s hard drive through your web browser to allow our systems to identify and recognize your browser. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page.

You have the capability and capacity to accept or decline these cookies by modifying your web browser; however, if you opt to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of our website.

A “web bug”, (Alternative names are web beacon, tracking bug, tracking pixel, pixel tag, 1×1 gif, and clear gif.) is a transparent image file used to monitor your journey around a website or group of sites. They are typically used by sites that hire third-party services to monitor web traffic. They may be used in conjunction with cookies to understand how visitors interact with the pages and content on the pages of a web site.

We may serve third party advertisements that use cookies and web bugs in the course of ads being served on our web site to determine how many times you’ve seen an advertisement. No PII you give us is provided to them for cookie or web bug use.  Therefore, they cannot personally identify you with that information on our web site.

Your browser can be set to accept or reject cookies or notify you when a cookie is being sent. “Privacy software”, (Software designed to protect the privacy of its users. The software typically works in conjunction with Internet usage to control or limit the amount of information made available to third-parties.) can be used to supersede web bugs. Taking either of these actions shouldn’t cause a problem with our site, should you so choose.

Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on this site. Google’s use of the DART cookie enables it to serve ads to users based on their visit to your sites and other sites on the Internet. We do not have access to the information gathered. We are not responsible for nor do we endorse the content of these ads. Users may opt out of the use of the DART cookie by visiting the Google ad and content network privacy policy.
