Intern Memo, LLC (“Intern Memo”) is committed to protecting the online privacy of visitors to our website and subscribers to our email newsletter. The Intern Memo seeks to provide information that is relevant and specific to your individual tastes and, at the same time, protect your privacy. The policy set forth below (this "Policy") applies only to the website and online services provided by Intern Memo. This Privacy Policy describes how we treat the information we collect when you visit our Web site and/or register for our email publication. Please read this notice carefully.
For the distribution of the Intern Memo, we naturally require your e-mail address. So that we may provide you with additional services as well as more interesting and relevant content, we may request as part of the registration process, additional information, including your name, zip code and telephone number. Intern Memo does not collect any other personal information that you do not expressly provide. Most importantly: Intern Memo will NEVER disclose your personal information to any third party without your consent with the exception of third parties specifically subcontracted to distribute our email newsletter.
At other times and at various locations on our website, such as in registration forms, surveys, and polls, we may request that you supply us with additional "personal information," such as your name, email address, mailing address, home or work telephone number. You will hopefully know when we are collecting personal information, because we attempt to collect personal information only when you voluntarily submit it to us through our online forms and questionnaires. If you do choose to give us personal information through our website, we will collect and retain that information.
When you use our website OR subscribe to our newsletter, we may also collect "non-personal information." We consider "non-personal information" to be information that, by itself, cannot be used to identify or contact you personally. Examples of this information are demographic information such as your age, gender, income, education, profession, zip code, college class and college etc. Non-personal information may also include technical information, such as your IP address, the type of browser you are using, the websites you visit immediately before and immediately after you visit our website, and other anonymous data involving your use of our website. Non-personal information may also include information that you provide us through your use of our website, such as the terms you enter into the search functions of our website. We reserve the right to use or disclose non-personal information in any way we see fit. We may use this data to improve our site and/or personalize your experience at our site or readership of the newsletter, in order to bring you more targeted and relevant content and to display such content according to your preferences. This information might also be disclosed to advertisers interested on advertising on the Intern Memo site and/or newsletter but never on an individual level.
This information will only be shared in an aggregate, anonymous manner, which means that the information will not contain any personally identifiable information about you or any other person.
We use "cookies" to enhance your visits to our website. A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer's hard drive. Cookies do not store personal information about you, unless you knowingly provide it. Cookies can store non-personal information, such as what websites, pages, or advertisements your browser has accessed. We use cookies to store information and personalize your experience with our website. For example, cookies allow our website to recognize your browser as a previous visitor, and thus save and remember any preferences that may have been set while you were previously browsing our website. Our cookies can also store your password, personalize pages, and keep track of selections, such as your time zone and episode selections.
You do have control over cookies. Most browsers can be set to notify you when a cookie is being placed on your computer. Most browsers can also be set to refuse to accept cookies, although this may affect your Internet experience. You can also erase cookies that are already on your computer. For more information about working with cookies, you should consult your user manual, FAQ, or "help" function of your specific browser and operating system software.
If we ever send you information by e-mail concerning new products or services that you did not expressly request, we will provide you with the option to change your preferences and opt-out of receiving those communications. You may request at any time that we not email you in the future by clicking the "unsubscribe" link which is included at the bottom of any email that you receive from us. If you unsubscribe, we will make reasonable efforts to discontinue these email communications as soon as practicable.
Except as specifically set forth in this Policy, we do not share your personal information with any non-affiliated third party without your permission. We may disclose aggregate information, such as demographic information, and our statistical analyses to third parties, including advertisers or other business partners. This aggregate information does not include your personal information.
We may use third-party advertising companies to deliver specific advertisements to you, which appear on pages throughout our website. These companies collect non-personal information about your visits to our website and other websites in order to provide advertisements about products and services that may be of interest to you. Information about your visit to their site, such as number of times you have viewed an ad (but not your name, address or other personal information), is used to serve ads to you. If you want to prevent a third-party advertiser from collecting and using this information, you may visit each third party advertiser's website directly and opt-out.
We may disclose personal information when we are required or requested to do so by law, court order or other government or law enforcement authority or regulatory agency; to enforce or apply our rights and agreements; or when we believe in good faith that disclosing this information is necessary or advisable, including, for example, to protect the rights, property, or safety of Intern Memo, our users, or others.
Intern Memo is not intended for use by children, especially those under age 13. We ask that anyone under the age of thirteen not submit any personal information through our website or register for our email. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of thirteen, and therefore we do not knowingly distribute such information to third parties. Minors between the ages of 13 and 17 must get the permission of their parent(s)or legal guardian(s) before viewing the website or receiving emails.
Our website may contain links to other websites, including websites directed to children. We have no control over the privacy practices or the content of any of our business partners, advertisers, sponsors or other websites to which we provide links from our website. Please consult those sites' individual privacy policies in order to determine how they treat user information.
All information described above is stored on restricted database servers. As we deem appropriate, we use security measures consistent with industry standards, such as firewalls and encryption technology, to protect your information. However, we cannot guarantee the security of our databases, nor can we guarantee that information you supply won't be intercepted while being transmitted to us over the Internet.
