*10*--PRIVACY POLICY
- New Database System--**
With our new database
system, Internet Search Engines, such as Yahoo!, can not search our
database.
It is also more difficult
for spammers to collect e-mail addresses. They would have to manually go
into each state, year, class, and classmate to get anything. It is just too
much hassle for them.
This is also why we
have not provided an internal site search engine. We feel that it would lead
to abuse.
We reserve the right
to use your e-mail and/or address information to advise you of your class
reunion(s) and who in your class is:
-
Having a Birthday
-
Getting Married
-
Having a Baby
-
Getting Divorced
-
Having an
anniversary
-
Moving to a new
address
-
Getting a new phone
number
Hosting a Classmate
"get together" or such an event Taking over the task of setting up your class
reunion Taking over the task of maintaining the files of your class And any
other information that we feel may be of interest to you.
If we determine there
to be a large amount of mail/e-mail, we may, at our option, send out a weekly,
biweekly, or monthly newsletter.
* Keep in mind that
if such information is listed as private, we will notify you for your
authorization to send out (See above). (This is not an option for deaths/funerals
listed with any news media)
We also reserve the
right to send you via e-mail, and/or U.S. Mail, any ads that we feel may
be useful to you. (i.e. a card store ad for a birthday, or a wedding cake
company for a wedding.) These ads help pay for such announcements. We do
not and will not sell or rent your information to anyone or any company.
We would simply take a pre-printed ad and add the announcement to it.
We try to only link
our site to and with companies who will also respect your and our privacy,
however, we are not responsible for the content or privacy standards used
by them.
We currently use the
following web addresses:
-
http://www.DeKalbHighSchool.com
-
http://profiles.DeKalbHighSchool.com
(We have other names
reserved and/or we may use others as time goes on.)
If you have proof that
another company is violating your or our privacy, please e-mail us at
abuse@dekalbhighschool.com.
We will attempt to investigate the allegation and take the steps needed at
that time.
We may amend this policy
from time-to-time. We will post any and all revisions to it on this site
(http://www.dekalbhighschool.com/tos.html). Please check it from
time-to-time.
The use of this and
all related web sites/domains constitutes acceptance of these terms of service,
including any and all additions, corrections, updates, and
modifications.
