What information does OZ DOWN UNDER collect and how is it used?

1. Personally-Identifiable Information:

OZ DOWN UNDER receives specific data about its website visitors only when such information is provided voluntarily. This occurs when our visitors request information, purchase or enroll for services, provide resume information for employment opportunities, or send us e-mail. Of course, some of these activities require that you give us information, such as when you make a purchase, use a credit card to pay for services, submit your resume, or request certain types of information.

When you provide personally-identifiable information to OZ DOWN UNDER through one of our websites, it will be used to fulfill your specific request. OZ DOWN UNDER reserves the right, in its discretion, to send you bulletins and other important information about your OZ DOWN UNDER services. OZ DOWN UNDER will not sell or trade your personally-identifiable information unless we are authorized or legally required to do so, or in the case of imminent physical harm to the visitor or others.

On those sites where you may provide OZ DOWN UNDER with credit card or other ordering information via the web, OZ DOWN UNDER protects and secures this information by employing commercially customary web-based security and encryption protocols, examples of which include Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and Secure Electronic Transaction (SET).

On those sites where you voluntarily offer any feedback, data, answers, questions, comments, suggestions, ideas or the like, OZ DOWN UNDER will treat that portion of the information as non-confidential and non-proprietary and, except as otherwise expressed in this privacy statement, OZ DOWN UNDER assumes no obligation to protect such information from disclosure.

OZ DOWN UNDER gathers this information for the limited purpose of determining customer service and website needs. We accomplish this by using certain technologies, including "cookies" (a technology that can be used to provide the visitor with tailored information about OZ DOWN UNDER services).

OZ DOWN UNDER does not combine information collected in this way with any personally-identifiable information. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie and you can refuse it.
