Web Site Privacy Statement

WELCOME!

This Web site brings you the coolest information about the world of puzzles and provides a first hand look at some of our puzzles.

Dr. Radut Consulting ("Dr.Radut") respects the privacy rights of its online visitors and is committed to providing you with a secure online environment.

If you have any questions, complaints, or comments regarding our privacy statement or policies, please contact us using this email form. For complaints, you can also call +40-722-302258 or by regular mail at 108 Toamnei St., Bucharest-2, 020715 Romania. Please note, however, that this Privacy Policy applies only to sites operated by Dr.Radut from its offices and not to Web sites operated by our international affiliates, partners or other companies or organizations to which we link. When you link to any other sites from Dr.Radut Web site, this policy no longer applies and Dr.Radut does not control the activities of those sites. In addition, this Privacy Policy applies only to the information that Dr.Radut collects online, not offline.

What information does Dr.Radut collect?

In order to give you the most exciting Internet experience possible, Dr.Radut may request and/or collect information from you on a voluntary basis when you: (1) register with us; (2) shop at any of our online stores (when available); (3) participate in contests, events or promotions; (4) send questions or comments via e-mail to Dr.Radut; (5) submit your resume to us online; and/or, (6) fill out online surveys. The requested information may include personal information such as your name, e-mail address, telephone number, and home address. For some activities, we may also ask you to create a password and to provide demographic information such as your age, the gender and birth dates, and puzzle ownership and preferences. If demographic information is collected for an activity that also requires personal information, we may combine the demographic information with your personal information. This allows us to tailor the notices we send you and the content we provide you according to your preferences and interests.

If you are under the age of 14, you will need your parent or guardian's consent before you can provide any personal information to us for purposes of registration and other online activities. Kids, if you are ever unsure about anything you are seeing on this site, ask your parent or guardian for help.

Registration

If you wish to register with one of our sites or register a Dr.Radut product and/or service, you may be asked to supply personal information such as your full name, e-mail address, and (in the case of product/service registration) mailing address. We may also ask you to provide demographic information such as your birth date, gender, the birth dates and genders of children in your household, the postal code and country in which you live, and information on products you own or of interest to you. Dr.Radut uses such information to periodically contact you with product information news, special offers and relevant announcements (including service announcements) and to provide other exclusive benefits to those who register their products on our sites.

Online Store

In the event we provide an online store, visitors purchasing goods and services through such store will need to provide a valid credit card number and expiration date, in addition to name, mailing address, phone number and e-mail address.

Promotions

To participate in some of our promotions, you may be asked to provide an e-mail address or screen name, so that we can let you know if you won a prize. Please do not use your real name for these promotions. For other Dr.Radut promotions, we may request your name and home address in order to send you products or information by regular mail.

E-mail

By allowing you to send e-mail to us, we are not attempting to collect any personal information about you. We will only use personal information (such as name, mailing address and e-mail address) contained in your e-mail to respond to your specific inquiry or comments in the e-mail.

By allowing you to send postcards or pages to friends, we are not attempting to collect any personal information about you or the person you are e-mailing. We will use the personal information supplied (such as name and e-mail address) only to send the postcard or page as you request and allow the recipient to respond to you.

Resumes

Some of our sites allow for the online submission of resumes. Personal information collected from resumes is not subject to this Privacy Policy. However, we can assure you that such information will be used solely for the purpose of accepting and evaluating candidate submissions for job postings.

Online Surveys

In order to improve the user experience at our Web sites, we may employ online surveys for visitors to volunteer anonymous demographic information about themselves and provide us feedback about why they visit our sites and what we can do to make them better. Information collected through these surveys is anonymous; we cannot identify who is submitting the information or tie it to other personally identifiable information a user may have provided us through another means.

Whatever the activity may be, we will only collect information to the extent deemed reasonably necessary to fulfil your requests and our legitimate business objectives. If you do not want to submit personal information when requested, you will not be able to access certain areas on our site. However, you do not need to provide personal information to Dr.Radut in order to use our Web sites.

Who is collecting my information and how will it be used?

Dr.Radut collects the personal information you provide on our sites. We will use the information you submit to our Web sites to send you advertising or promotional materials, including information about new products, contests, features and enhancements, special offers and other events of interest. We also use your personal information for our internal marketing and demographic studies, so we can constantly improve the products and services we provide you and can better meet your needs.

The demographic information (e.g., age and gender) you provide us is collected by Dr.Radut and may be disclosed in aggregate to third parties. This aggregate demographic information cannot be used to personally identify you or your computer.

With whom does Dr.Radut share my personal information?

From time to time, Dr.Radut may employ and share its customers' personal information with entities who use it solely to provide support for the internal operations of Dr.Radut's web site (e.g., online product fulfilment, online registration and email services, or technical support).

We may disclose personal information in the good faith belief that we are required to do so by law, including but not limited to disclosure to law enforcement or other government officials in connection with an investigation of fraud, intellectual property infringements, or other activity that is illegal or may expose you or us to legal liability.

Cookies and Clear GIFs

Dr.Radut may use cookies and clear GIFs to enhance your experience at our Web sites. These cookies and clear GIFs let us know how many people are coming to individual sites, how frequently, and how they are using the sites, allowing us to make updates to content and improve navigation as appropriate.

Cookies are pieces of information that we place on your computer to help us accurately understand how many consumers are visiting a particular site, how often they visit that site, what content they are most interested in, and how they prefer to shop for our products. For example, a cookie will allow us to remember certain things based on your Internet Protocol or "IP" address (an IP address is the string of numbers that identifies each sender or receiver of information that is sent across the Internet), such as your login information, the time and duration of your visits, how you navigated through our content and where you exited a particular site. To save you the time of re-entering your login information every time you come back to our Web sites, Dr.Radut may link information contained in a cookie to your email address. We do not use cookies to retrieve information from your computer that we did not originally send in a cookie.

Clear GIFs, sometimes called "Web bugs," are file objects, usually a graphic image such as a transparent one pixel-by-one pixel GIF (Graphics Interchange Format, one of the two most common file formats for images on the Web), that are placed on a Web page or in an e-mail message to monitor user behaviour. The GIF tells us the IP address of the computer that fetched our page, the URL of the page the GIF is on, the time the page was viewed, the type of browser used, and can tell us a previously set cookie value. This anonymous information is returned by the clear GIF to Dr.Radut and we use this information to accurately count visitors across multiple sites and understand how they navigate and use our network of sites.

Log Files

Other information passively collected by Dr.Radut is in the form of logs - files that record web site activity and gather statistics about web users' browsing habits. These entries are generated anonymously, and help Dr.Radut determine (among other things) how many and how often users have visited our Web sites, which pages they've visited, and other similar data. We also use the log file entries for our internal marketing and demographic studies, so we can constantly improve the online services we provide you. Log files are used internally only, and are not associated with any particular user, computer, or browser.

Linking to third party sites

To provide relevant information not found on our Web sites and to facilitate online shopping, Dr.Radut may provide links from our Web sites to third party Web sites. Dr.Radut encourages users to read third party sites' privacy policies before submitting personal information.

Opt-out

If you do not want Dr.Radut to send you e-mail or regular mail about our products and/or services, you can opt-out at the time of registration or at the time of information collection. If you are receiving e-mails or regular mail and at a later date you choose to opt-out and have your name removed from Dr.Radut's e-mailing list, you can do so by using the link included with a Dr.Radut e-mail.

Safeguarding your personal information

Dr.Radut will only collect personal information to the extent deemed reasonably necessary to serve our legitimate business purposes, and we will take appropriate steps to ensure the security and integrity of any information you provide to us.

Review, update and removal of personal information

If you have registered with our site, you may at any time review and/or update the contact information we have for you or inform us that you want us to remove your information from our database by visiting the online profile section of one of our sites.
