Mall Secrets we're
mad about malls. We think shopping malls and centres
are fascinating places.
The
Mall Secrets website is a place to celebrate your
favourite malls and shopping centres.
Privacy Policy for MallSecrets.com
The privacy of our visitors to MallSecrets.com
is important to us.
At MallSecrets.com,
we recognize that privacy of your personal information
is important. Here is information on what types
of personal information we receive and collect
when you use and visit MallSecrets.com,
and how we safeguard your information.
We never sell your personal information
to third parties.
Log Files
As with most other websites, we collect and use
the data contained in log files. The information
in the log files include your IP (internet protocol)
address, your ISP (internet service provider,
such as AOL or Shaw Cable), the browser you used
to visit our site (such as Internet Explorer or
Firefox), the time you visited our site and which
pages you visited throughout our site.
Cookies and Web Beacons
We do use cookies to store information, such as
your personal preferences when you visit our site.
This could include only showing you a popup once
in your visit, or the ability to login to some
of our features, such as forums.
We also use third party advertisements on MallSecrets.com
to support our site. Some of these advertisers
may use technology such as cookies and web beacons
when they advertise on our site, which will also
send these advertisers (such as Google through
the Google AdSense program) information including
your IP address, your ISP , the browser you used
to visit our site, and in some cases, whether
you have Flash installed. This is generally used
for geotargeting purposes (showing New York real
estate ads to someone in New York, for example)
or showing certain ads based on specific sites
visited (such as showing cooking ads to someone
who frequents cooking sites).
DoubleClick DART cookies
We also may use DART cookies for ad serving through
Google’s DoubleClick, which places a cookie
on your computer when you are browsing the web
and visit a site using DoubleClick advertising
(including some Google AdSense advertisements).
This cookie is used to serve ads specific to you
and your interests (”interest based targeting”).
The ads served will be targeted based on your
previous browsing history (For example, if you
have been viewing sites about visiting Las Vegas,
you may see Las Vegas hotel advertisements when
viewing a non-related site, such as on a site
about hockey). DART uses “non personally
identifiable information”. It does NOT track
personal information about you, such as your name,
email address, physical address, telephone number,
social security numbers, bank account numbers
or credit card numbers. You can opt-out of this
ad serving on all sites using this advertising
by visiting http://www.doubleclick.com/privacy/dart_adserving.aspx
You can choose to disable or selectively turn
off our cookies or third-party cookies in your
browser settings, or by managing preferences in
programs such as Norton Internet Security. However,
this can affect how you are able to interact with
our site as well as other websites. This could
include the inability to login to services or
programs, such as logging into forums or accounts.
Deleting cookies does not mean you are permanently
opted out of any advertising program. Unless you
have settings that disallow cookies, the next
time you visit a site running the advertisements,
a new cookie will be added.
