Internet user privacy and confidentiality
is of the utmost importance to Cairns Web. Our reputation
and integrity is directly related to how we serve
our clients and customers. Please find below a description
of how Cairns Web strives to protect the privacy
of Internet users, and maintain the Internet as
a highly credible medium.
User Information
Cairns Web does not acquire or
collect any personal information about you. Your
name, address, phone number, and email address
all remain your private properties. Cairns Web
does, however, collect information which is specific
to how you use the Internet. Cairns Web servers
note non-personally identifying details such as,
but not limited to, the server you are logged
onto, the geographic location of the ISP you use,
the type of browser you use, and your IP address.
This information is obtained solely for the purpose
of targeting ads and measuring a given ad's effectiveness
on behalf of Cairns Web clients and customers.
There are instances where a user may provide
specific personal information in response to an
ad containing a survey, purchase agreement, or
registration questionnaire. For such programs,
Cairns Web (or a third party working in conjunction
with Cairns Web and the advertiser) acquires this
information on behalf of the advertiser client.
This information is used by the client so the
user can receive the goods or services requested.
When requested, Cairns Web may employ this information
in a compiled format without identifying users
specifically to provide to the advertiser client
precise profiles of the types of individuals responding
to the ads.
The Cookie Principle
Cairns Web may use cookies to improve
your web browsing experience. When you are first
served a Cairns Web ad, Cairns Web may assign a
unique random number to your computer browser -
commonly known as a "cookie." We do this
to understand the way a user responds to the ads
we deliver. For example, this number lets us keep
track of how many times you view an ad we distribute.
Likewise, the cookie can help make sure you do not
see the same ad over and over - thus enhancing your
online web viewing experience. Most web browsers
automatically accept cookies, but you can usually
change your browser to prevent that use if you desire.
Disclosure
Cairns Web openly volunteers its practices
of collecting information, its targeting capabilities,
and its use of cookies. If you have any questions
pertaining to this privacy policy and its contents,
please direct your correspondence to privacy@cairnsweb.com.au.
Notification of Changes
If we decide
to change our privacy policy, we will post these
changes on this page so that you are always aware
of what information we collect, how we use it, and
under what circumstances we disclose it. Regardless
of later updates, we will never use the information
you submit under this current policy in a new way
without first providing you an opportunity to opt-out
or otherwise prevent that use.
