PRIVACY
POLICY
Doni
Kendig is committed to protecting your privacy. That is
why we have adopted this Privacy Policy. This Privacy
Policy is intended to describe how your personal information
is processed and used, and we will make every effort to
ensure that our activities keep within the spirit of this
Privacy Policy. Please note that by visiting and using
Doni Kendig.com you are accepting the practices described
in this Privacy Policy.
What
Information is Doni Kendig gathering about its visitors
and how is it being used?
Every
computer connected to the Internet is provided with a
domain name (e.g. earthlink.net) and an IP Address (e.g.
192.164.13.145). When a visitor requests a page from within
the Doni Kendig's website, our Web Servers automatically
identify and log the HTTP request that is made to our
Web Server. This information reveals nothing personal
about you. In fact, the only information that we automatically
gather and log is as follows:
The
IP Address of the Site that may have Referred you.
Your
IP Address
The
Web Page that you may have linked to us from, if any.
The
Product Identifier for Version and Make of Browser (e.g.
Internet Explorer 4.5)
The
Operating System platform that you may be running (e.g.
Macintosh or Windows)
Search Words or Terms that are passed from a Search Engine
(e.g. Google, Yahoo, or Lycos)
There
is absolutely nothing special about the information just
described, and the practice of collecting this data has
been generally standardized by virtually every Web Server
on the Internet today.
The
purpose for this information is actually two-fold. One,
Doni Kendig has found it advantageous to examine visitor
traffic in its aggregate, so that we can ensure maximum
compatibility for the various Browsers and Operating Systems
that visit our site. Additionally, as any business should
attest, it is our desire to generate greater amounts of
visitor traffic. By analyzing visitation patterns, referring
URLs and Search Engine terms, we can strategically enhance
our exposure on the Internet.
What
about Cookies?
Cookies
are small pieces of data that are transferred to your
computer's hard drive through your Web browser from our
Web Server. A cookie cannot read data from your hard disk
or read cookie files that may have been created from other
sites. The Doni Kendig website utilizes cookies as a means
of providing personalization features to our visitors.
For example, we utilize cookies to remember settings that
you may have made at our website.
You
can choose whether to accept cookies by changing the settings
of your browser. Typically, by accessing the browser's
help feature you can obtain information on how to prevent
your browser from accepting all cookies or to notify you
when a cookie is being sent. If you choose not to accept
these cookies, your experience at our website and other
websites may be diminished and some features may not work
as intended.
What
other information does Doni Kendig request?
We
may also request your e-mail address or mailing address
for the purposes of conducting a survey, adding you to
our mailing list, or by your request to have someone contact
you for additional information. Whenever we request the
identity of a visitor, we will clearly indicate the purpose
of the inquiry before the information is requested. We
maintain a strict "No Spam" policy that means we do not
intend to sell, rent, or otherwise give your e-mail address
to a third-party, without your consent.
In
addition, Doni Kendig will not send you e-mail that you
have not agreed to receive. If you are a member of our
Mailing List, you will be contacted with announcements,
news, portfolio additions, and new products or services.
You have the option of "Unsubscribing" from our Mailing
List at any time, thereby disabling any further such e-mail
communication from being sent to you.
What
information does Doni Kendig collect when I purchase something?
If
you purchase something, such as a Print, we need to obtain
the appropriate information in order to complete the transaction.
Depending upon the method of payment that you select and
your location, the required information may vary. However,
generally speaking we will need:
Your
Name
Billing
Address (for Credit Card Orders)
Shipping Address
E-Mail
Address
Phone
Number
Credit Card Number (for Credit Card Orders)
Expiration
Date (for Credit Card Orders)
We
use shopping cart features that safeguard this information
by using industry standard SSL (Secure Sockets Layer)
encrypted servers. SSL encodes the information transferred
between you and the server, rendering it unreadable to
anyone trying to intercept the information.
Will Doni Kendig disclose the information collected
to Third Parties?
Doni
Kendig will disclose your personal information or any
of its log file information when required by law or in
the good-faith belief that such actions are necessary
to:
1.

process served on Doni Kendig.
2.
Protect and defend the rights or property of Doni Kendig,
or visitors of Doni Kendig.
3.
Identify persons who may be violating the law, the legal
notice, or the rights of third parties.
4.

activities.
Doni
Kendig uses reasonable precautions to keep the information
disclosed to us secure. Furthermore, we are not responsible
for any breach of security or for any actions of any third
parties that receive the information. Doni Kendig also
provides "links" to a wide variety of other web sites
on the Internet. We are not responsible for their Privacy
Policies or how those web sites manage information about
their users. We strongly urge you to check with those
web sites to determine their privacy policy.
Any
changes to this Privacy Policy will be posted on this
page so that you are always aware of the information that
we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances
we disclose it.
