FunEnclave has created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our
commitment to privacy. The following discloses the information gathering and
dissemination practices for this Web site:
www.FunEnclave.com
What constitutes FunEnclave.com
For all purposes, FunEnclave.com refers to the domain www.funenclave.com and
all of its directories and sub domains. This privacy policy is applicable at
all such areas that fall under the domain of "funenclave.com". Individual
sections of this website might be covered separately as an add-on to this privacy policy.
Right to Change Policy
As FunEnclave.com is constantly innovating and enhancing the type of services
it provides to its users, this Privacy Statement will also continue to change
to match the services and features we make available. As such, we reserve the
right to change this statement to match the services we provide. If we make any
material change to this statement, we will change the date at the top of this
statement to reflect the effective date of the change. When you visit our site
or use our services and site features, we encourage you to check the date of
this Privacy Statement to ensure you are aware of any updates. However,
regardless of how this Privacy Statement may change or evolve over time,
FunEnclave will not collect or maintain your private and personally
identifiable information without your consent. Further, if you consent to give
us your personal information, we will keep it confidential and will not sell,
license or disclose your personal information to any third party without your
consent in any manner that personally identifies you, unless we are compelled
to do so under the law or to comply with court order.
Types of Information We Collect
A user can browse this website at two levels. The information gathering
policies of FunEnclave.com depend on the level at which you browse.
- As a guest, without registering on the site, you are
free to browse FunEnclave.com without submitting any personal information
as a guest where personal information refers to your name, email address,
your address, phone number or any such information that directly
identifies you. However, all your activities on this website will be
logged in a non-personally identifiable manner for statistical purposes by
our software and/or third party software applications. This information
helps us to understand browsing habits of our users and is used to plan
our future strategies vis-a-vis content we put on this website.
- As a registered member, you are required to provide
this website at a bare minimum, your email address which is used for
activating your account and/or for future communication with you. You will
also be required to provide us with a password and select a nickname that
will identify you on this site and is used to log you into this website
and allows you to browse as a registered member. FunEnclave.com does not
ask for any other information at the time of registration that personally
identifies you. However, you as a user might chose to provide us any other
information voluntarily both at the time of registration and subsequently
while browsing the website.
Voluntary information that FunEnclave.com requests
When you register, you are asked to give demographic information (like
birth year, occupation, and gender). We ask you to tell us a little about
yourself so we can better understand the types of people who register. This
information can also be used to provide you with content that may be of
interest to you, and to show you advertisements that are relevant to your
demographic information. FunEnclave.com uses third party ad companies to
display ads on its sites. These ads may contain cookies. While FunEnclave.com
uses cookies in other parts of its sites, the ad companies also use cookies
with the ads displayed, and FunEnclave.com may not have access to the type of information
they log.
Information Automatically Logged
As and when you visit this website, your IP address is automatically logged. We
will also log via third part software your browsing trends which are used
solely for understanding user demands and planning our future strategy such as
the type of content we should make available for you in future. As such the
information logged when you browse as guest is not personally identifiable. As
a registered member, the information may or may not be associated with your web
identity (which you provided this website when you chose to register on this
website). However, even in this case we never use such information to study
individual trends but to use a collection of data obtained for a multitude of
users for statistical purposes.
Children's Online Privacy
While this website is open for all to browse and register, we expect and state
at the time of sign up that children below the age of 13 will obtain their
guardian's permission before browsing this website and/or trying to register.
However this website does not make any warranty or claim of protecting the
privacy of children in any other particular way.
Password Encryption
Please note that registration in our message boards require that you specify a
password for your use. This password is then encrypted by the underlying
software automatically, which means that the neither the staff nor any other
member of FunEnclave has access or knowledge of what your exact password is.
This gives you ample security in case you are using the same password
repeatedly in other sites (which is strongly discouraged). As and when you
request for a new password, you will be asked for your old password. If you
have forgotten your old password you can chose to generate a new one, in which
case the underlying software will generate a new password arbitrarily (note
your old password will not be recovered in its exact form even by this method)
and will automatically send you the same via a email to the email address you
had provided this website at the time of signing up.
