How does Prospect Bacon use the information?

Prospect Bacon’s primary goal in collecting information is to improve the websites and provide the user with the best possible experience on the website.

Prospect Bacon may research its users’ demographics and behavior based on the information provided to us upon registration, gathered from transaction activity, from our server log files or from surveys. This research may be compiled, analyzed or sold on an aggregated basis, which does not include information identifying individual users. Prospect Bacon also may share this aggregated data with business partners or other third parties.

Prospect Bacon may also use your information in the ways stated immediately below under “With whom does Prospect Bacon share your information?”

With whom does Prospect Bacon share your information?

1. Personally Identifiable or Account Information. Prospect Bacon may provide your personally identifiable information and account information to third parties under the following circumstances or for the following purposes:

1. Prospect Bacon may provide such information for the purpose of processing that information on behalf of Prospect Bacon. Such disclosure is made to Prospect Bacon’s affiliates and trusted business partners or persons, and Prospect Bacon asks that such parties process the information only in accordance with Prospect Bacon’s instructions and maintain appropriate confidentiality and security measures.
2. Prospect Bacon may provide such information for use in website hosting, packaging and mailing, order fulfillment, answering customer questions about products or services, sending postal mail, providing investor information and processing data. Such disclosure is made to companies who may provide such services to Prospect Bacon. We will only provide those companies the information they need to deliver the service, and they are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose.
3. Prospect Bacon may provide such information when Prospect Bacon has reason to believe that disclosing such information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating Prospect Bacon’s Terms of Service, or may otherwise be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) Prospect Bacon’s rights or property, other Prospect Bacon website users or customers, or anyone else who could be harmed by such activities.
4. Prospect Bacon may provide such information when Prospect Bacon believes in good faith that the law requires it, or for administrative and other purposes that we deem necessary to maintain, service and improve our products and services.
5. Prospect Bacon may provide such information in response to subpoenas, court orders, or legal process, or to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims.
6. Prospect Bacon may provide such information when Prospect Bacon believes it is necessary to share information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of Prospect Bacon’s terms of use, or as otherwise required by law.
7. Prospect Bacon may provide such information if Prospect Bacon acquires, or is acquired by or merged with another company, or if Prospect Bacon sells or buys the assets of another person or company. In such transactions, confidential and personally identifiable customer or client information generally is one of the transferred business assets. In the event of a transaction involving the sale of some or all of Prospect Bacon businesses, customer and site visitor information may be one of the transferred assets.

1. Data in the Aggregate. Prospect Bacon may disclose blinded aggregated data and user statistics to prospective partners and other third parties, as well as to others for lawful purposes. Blinded data is data which does not identify an individual person.

What are cookies and how does Prospect Bacon use them?

As part of offering and providing customizable and personalized services, many websites use cookies to store and sometimes track information about you. A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your computer’s hard drive. We may use cookies to allow faster and easier access to your account information, monitor traffic on the websites, and measure traffic patterns to improve functionality. Prospect Bacon web pages may also contain electronic images known as web beacons (sometimes called clear gifs or web bugs), direct server-to-server connections (like Facebook’s Conversion API) or other advanced technologies that are useful to both Prospect Bacon and you as you use our services. We may use such devices to verify compliance with our terms of service or in connection with any promotions on the websites.

By accepting our Privacy Policy, you are accepting our usage of all of these types of technologies.

How can I control my personal information?

You may contact us at legal@ProspectBacon.com if you wish to view, edit or delete your personal information from our database, and we will use commercially reasonable efforts to accommodate your request. Moreover, as noted above, if you do not want your data to be shared, you can choose not to allow the transfer by not using that particular service.

Does Prospect Bacon protect financial information collected on its websites?

Prospect Bacon does not presently collect financial information via its websites; however, as stated above, it reserves the right to do so in the future.

Security precautions to protect the loss, misuse or alteration of your information.

Your Prospect Bacon Account Information and Prospect Bacon Profile are password-protected; however, Prospect Bacon does not presently use encryption technology for passwords, registration, or other information.

We strongly recommend that you sign out of your Prospect Bacon account and close your browser window when you have finished your work or viewing of Prospect Bacon’s websites. This is to ensure that others cannot access your account by using your computer when you are away from it.

Because of the global nature of the World Wide Web and the Internet, when you give us information, that information may be sent electronically to servers outside of the country where you originally entered the information. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Since Prospect Bacon websites do not use security encryption measures, information that you disclose by use of this site (as with any site that is non-secure), by posting a message or using email, potentially could be collected and used by others. This may result in unsolicited messages from third parties or use of such information by third parties for their own purposes, legal or illegal.

As a result, although Prospect Bacon strives to protect your personal information, Prospect Bacon cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our services, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we use reasonable efforts to ensure its security on our systems.

What else should I know about my privacy?

Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose information online, that information is accessible to other customers and users. Ultimately, you are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your passwords and/or any account information. Please be careful and responsible whenever you are online.

When you or Prospect Bacon end your customer relationship with us, we will treat the information we have about you as if you were still our customer.
