PRIVACY POLICY
MBCH is committed to protecting your
privacy and developing technology that gives you the most powerful and
safe online experience. This Statement of Privacy applies to the MBCH
website and governs data collection and usage. By using the MBCH
website, you consent to the data practices described in this
statement.
Collection of your
Personal Information
MBCH collects personally identifiable information, such as your e-mail
address, name, home or work address or telephone number. MBCH also
collects anonymous demographic information, which is not unique to
you, such as your ZIP code, age, gender, preferences, interests and
favorites.
There is also information about your computer hardware and software
that is automatically collected by MBCH. This information can include:
your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times and
referring website addresses. This information is used by MBCH for the
operation of the service, to maintain quality of the service, and to
provide general statistics regarding use of the MBCH website.
Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally
identifiable information or personally sensitive data through MBCH
public message boards, this information may be collected and used by
others.
MBCH encourages you
to review the privacy statements of websites you choose to link to
from MBCH so that you can understand how those websites collect, use
and share your information. MBCH is not responsible for the privacy
statements or other content on websites outside of the MBCH family of
websites.
Use of your Personal
Information
MBCH collects and uses your personal information to operate the MBCH
website and deliver the services you have requested. MBCH also uses
your personally identifiable information to inform you of other
products or services available from MBCH and its affiliates. MBCH may
also contact you via surveys to conduct research about your opinion of
current services or of potential new services that may be offered.
MBCH does not sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties.
MBCH may, from time to time, contact you on behalf of external
business partners about a particular offering that may be of interest
to you. In those cases, your unique personally identifiable
information (e-mail, name, address, telephone number) is not
transferred to the third party. In addition, MBCH may share data with
trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis, send you
email or postal mail, provide customer support, or arrange for
deliveries. All such third parties are prohibited from using your
personal information except to provide these services to MBCH, and
they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information.
MBCH does not use or disclose sensitive personal information, such as
race, religion, or political affiliations, without your explicit
consent.
MBCH keeps track of the websites and pages our customers visit within
MBCH, in order to determine what MBCH services are the most popular.
This data is used to deliver customized content and advertising within
MBCH to customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in
a particular subject area.
MBCH websites will disclose your personal information, without notice,
only if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such
action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply
with legal process served on MBCH or the site; (b) protect and defend
the rights or property of MBCH; and, (c) act under exigent
circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of MBCH or the
public.
Use of Cookies
The MBCH website uses "cookies" to help you personalize your online
experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk
by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or
deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to
you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued
the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience
feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web
server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you
personalize MBCH pages, or register with MBCH site or services, a
cookie helps MBCH to recall your specific information on subsequent
visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal
information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on.
When you return to the same MBCH website, the information you
previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the MBCH
features that you customized.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers
automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser
setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline
cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive
features of the MBCH services or websites you visit.
Security of your Personal Information
MBCH secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use
or disclosure. MBCH secures the personally identifiable information
you provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment,
protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When personal
information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other
websites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the
Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
Changes to this
Statement
MBCH will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect
company and customer feedback. MBCH encourages you to periodically
review this Statement to be informed of how MBCH is protecting your
information.
Contact Information
MBCH welcomes your comments regarding this Statement of Privacy. If
you believe that MBCH has not adhered to this Statement, please
contact MBCH. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly
determine and remedy the problem.
