Black Sheep HDFC Privacy Statement Information
Because we gather information about the members of Black Sheep HDFC, we feel you should fully understand the terms and conditions surrounding the capture and use of that information.
Information Black Sheep HDFC gathers and tracks
Black Sheep HDFC gathers two types of information about users: 1) Data that users provide through optional, voluntary registration on several of our sites, and 2) aggregated tracking information derived mainly by tallying page views throughout our sites. Such information enables us to better tailor our content to readers’ needs. Black Sheep HDFC never sells or shares your personal information with any third party.
Electronic Newsletters
Black Sheep HDFC may offer free electronic newsletters to users. Black Sheep HDFC may gather the e-mail addresses of users who voluntarily subscribe. Customers may remove themselves from any mailing list by following the instructions contained in every newsletter. They can also subscribe to the newsletters at the time of registration.
Usage tracking
Black Sheep HDFC tracks user traffic patterns throughout Black Sheep HDFC and this information may be correlated with data about individual users. Overall usage statistics, according to a user’s domain name, browser type and MIME type gotten by reading this information from the browser string (information contained in every user’s browser), are also broken down.
Black Sheep HDFC also tracks and catalogs the search terms that customers enter into our search tools, but this tracking is never associated with individual users.
Cookies
A cookie is a small data file that certain Web sites write to your hard drive when you visit them. A cookie file can contain information such including a user ID that the site uses to track the pages you’ve visited. But the only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie can’t read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. Black Sheep HDFC uses cookies to track the items you add to your shopping card.
If you’ve set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, you will receive the warning message with each cookie.
You can refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser. However, you need to have cookies turned on to purchase software through Black Sheep HDFC.
Use of the information
Black Sheep HDFC uses any information voluntarily given by our users to enhance their experience in our network of sites, whether to provide interactive or personalized elements on the sites or to better prepare future content based on the interests of our users.
As stated above, Black Sheep HDFC uses information that users voluntarily provide in order to send out electronic newsletters. We send out newsletters to subscribers on a regular schedule and occasionally send out special editions when we think subscribers might be particularly interested in something we are doing. Black Sheep HDFC never shares newsletter mailing lists with any third parties, including advertisers or partners.
We use tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users like and don’t like based on traffic to those areas. Black Sheep HDFC does not track what individual users read, but rather how well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better service for you.
We track search terms entered in our search function as one of many measures of what interests our users. But we don’t track which terms a particular user enters.
Black Sheep HDFC uses the above-described information to tailor our content to suit your needs. We do not share information about individual users with any third party.
Opt-Out Policy
Black Sheep HDFC gives users options wherever necessary and practical, such choices include:
• Opting not to receive our electronic newsletters when registering for a site
• Opting not to provide certain personal information when registering for a site or service
• Opting not to participate in certain interactive areas, which completely alleviates the need for any information from our users
Unsubscribe Policy
