Orens Brothers Privacy Policy
Your privacy is very important to us. We want to make your experience on the
Internet as enjoyable and rewarding as possible, and we want you to use the
Internet?s vast array of information, tools, and opportunities with complete
confidence.
Orens Brothers has created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment
to privacy and security. This Privacy Policy describes how Orens Brothers collects
information from users of Orens Brothers services (the ?Services?), how we use the
information we collect and the choices you have concerning the collection and
use of such information. Please read this Privacy Policy carefully.
Collection and Use of Information
Members are asked to provide certain information when they sign up for our
Services such as name, address, telephone number, billing information (such
as a credit card number), and the type of personal computer being used to access
the Services. The personal information collected from Members during the registration
process is used to manage each Member?s account (such as billing and collections).
In order to better understand its Members, Orens Brothers collects consumer data
such as ZIP code, demographics and other publicly available information from
third-parties. Orens Brothers uses this data to provide product and service offers.
We use data in aggregate to develop products and offers to better serve its
Members.
Orens Brothers collects information from Visitors and Members who use the various
parts of our Services. We use this information primarily to provide a customized
experience as you use our Services. Orens Brothers collects consumer information
about its Members through surveys or preference pages.
Orens Brothers may share personal information with select affiliates in order to
provide Orens Brothers services to our Members. Orens Brothers does not share identifying
information (like Name and address) with affiliates for their use in delivering
product and service offers to Members. Affiliates will not be allowed to use
any information provided in serving our customers to be sold, rented, or given
to any other company. Affiliates are not allowed to use Orens Brothers data for any
other purpose other than Orens Brothers approved programs designed to better serve
Members.
In instances where Orens Brothers and an affiliate jointly promote the Services,
Orens Brothers may provide the affiliate certain personal information, as a result
of the joint promotion. In this instance, the information may not be used by
the affiliate for any other purpose. Orens Brothers may also generate aggregate profiles
from information provided during registration (such as the total number, but
not the names, of Members). We may use this aggregated and non-identifying information
to sell advertisements that appear on the Services.
We use registration information to contact you in a variety of ways. We may
send you offers through email, phone or regular mail of Orens Brothers products and
services or offers on behalf of selected affiliates. If you order products directly
from Orens Brothers, we will use your information to continue to provide you products
that you are interested in.
Orens Brothers Affiliates and Sponsors
Some Orens Brothers products and services are offered to Members in
conjunction with a third-party vendor. To provide these products and services,
the vendor may need to collect and maintain your personal information. Delaware
Valley On Line may share non-identifying and aggregate consumer information
with such affiliates in order to more effectively market our co-branded products
or services offered to our customers.
Online Shopping
At some web sites, you can purchase products and services or register to receive
materials, such as a catalog or new product and service updates. In many cases,
you may be asked to provide contact information, such as your name, address,
email address, phone number, and credit/debit card information. If you complete
an order for someone else, such as an online gift order sent directly to a recipient,
you may be asked to provide information about the recipient, such as the recipient?s
name, address, and phone number. Orens Brothers has no control over third-party web
sites and their use of any personal information you provide when placing such
an order. Please exercise care when doing so.
Online Advertisements
Orens Brothers may share aggregated and non-identifying information
about our Visitors and Members collected through the registration process as
well as through online surveys and promotions with select advertisers. In some
instances, we use this information to deliver tailored advertisements. Based
upon the information we have collected, we may then display advertisements to
specific audiences. Orens Brothers does not share personal information
about its Members with these advertisers. We may use third-party advertising
companies to serve ads when you visit our Web sites. These companies may use
information (not including your name, address, email address or telephone number)
about your visits to this and other Web sites in order to provide advertisements
on this site and other sites about goods and services that may be of interest
to you.
Voluntary Surveys
We may periodically conduct both business and individual surveys. We encourage
Members to participate in these voluntary surveys because they provide us with
important information that helps us to improve the types of services we offer
and how we provide them to you. Your personal information and responses will
remain confidential, even if the survey is conducted by a third-party.
We take the information we receive from individuals responding to our surveys
and combine (or aggregate) it with the responses of other Members to create
broader, generic responses to the survey questions (such as gender, age, residence,
hobbies, education, employment, industry sector, or other demographic information).
We then use the aggregated information to improve the quality of our services
to you, and to develop new services and products. This aggregated, non-personally
identifying information may be shared with third-party affiliates.
Special Cases
It is Orens Brothers?s policy not to use or share the personal information in ways
unrelated to the ones described above without also providing an opportunity
to opt out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses. However, Orens Brothers may
disclose personal information or information regarding use of the Services if,
for any reason, in our sole discretion, we believe that it is reasonable to
do so, including: to satisfy laws, regulations or other legal requests for such
information; to disclose information that is necessary to identify, contact
or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our Acceptable Use
Policy or other policies; to operate the Services properly; or to protect Orens Brothers,
our Services, our employees or our Members.
"Cookies" and How Orens Brothers Uses Them
A ?cookie? is a small data file that can be placed on your hard drive when
you visit certain Web sites. Orens Brothers may use cookies to collect, store, and
sometimes track information for statistical purposes to operate and improve
the products and services we provide and to manage our network and property.
If you have created your own Personal Start Page, we will use a cookie to save
your settings and to provide customizable and personalized services. Additionally,
be aware that if you visit non-Orens Brothers web sites where you are prompted to
log in or that are customizable, you may be required to accept cookies.
Advertisers and partners may also use their own cookies. We do not control
use of these cookies and expressly disclaim responsibility for information collected
through them.
Orens Brothers's Commitment to Children's Privacy
Protecting children?s privacy is especially important to us. It is our policy
to comply with the Children?s Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 and other
applicable laws. You must be 18 to use the Services. Orens Brothers does not attempt
to ask or collect information from any person under the age of 18.
Orens Brothers may have products and web pages designed especially for younger users
under the direct supervision of an adult Member. While we make every effort
to ensure that these Services are fun and age-appropriate for a younger audience,
we believe that there is no substitute for proper parental supervision. For
further information about tips, tools, age-appropriate or kid-friendly Web sites
and how to report online trouble, please visit www.getnetwise.org.
Orens Brothers recommends that children ask a parent for permission before sending
any personal information anywhere using the Internet.
Public Forums
Any information that you disclose in public areas of our Web sites or the Internet
may become public information. You should exercise caution when deciding to
disclose personal information in these areas.
Orens Brothers's Commitment to Data Security
Orens Brothers has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse, and alteration
of the information under our control. While we make every effort to ensure the
integrity and security of our network and systems, we cannot guarantee that
our security measures will prevent third-party ?hackers? from illegally obtaining
this information. We will never sell your information to a third party.

Orens Brothers reserves the right to revise, amend, or modify this policy and our
other policies and agreements at any time and in any manner. Any revision, amendment,
