PLEASE NOTE: Under certain circumstances, I.P. addresses and/or domain names may be linked to personally identifiable information, when this information is stored in databases managed by internet registrars or registries.

Information We May Place Automatically On Your Computer’s Hard Drive

When you view our Site or advertisements, we may store some information on your computer. This information will be in the form of a “Cookie” or similar file and will help us in many ways. For example, Cookies allow us to tailor the Site or advertisement to better match your interests and preferences. With most Internet Browsers, you can erase Cookies from your computer hard drive, block all Cookies, or receive a warning before a Cookie is stored. Please refer to your Browser instructions or help screen to learn more about these functions.

 

Basis of Privacy Policy Principles

The privacy principles of this policy are based on respect for international standards of privacy protection, such as the Information Privacy Principles set out in section 14 of the Commonwealth Privacy Act, 1998, and section 6 of the New Zealand Privacy Act 1993 and the Australian Privacy Charter.

 

Security of Information

VN Mecca takes reasonable steps to preserve the security of “Cookie” and personal information in accordance with this Site’s Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. We operate secure data networks protected by industry standard firewall and password protection. We have security measures in place to attempt to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of your user data under our control. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed as totally secure. Accordingly, VN Mecca strives to protect such information. VN Mecca cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our online products or services and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission we take reasonable steps to preserve the security of the information in our systems.

Only certain employees have access to the information you provide us. For example, we impose strict rules on our employees who have access either to the databases that store user information or to the servers that host our services. While we cannot guarantee that loss, misuse or alteration to data will not occur we try to prevent such unfortunate occurrences.
