Nothing is more important to Afrosugar.com than protecting the private information of visitors to our site. In order to demonstrate our firm commitment to this principal, we have created this privacy statement. Below you’ll find information about our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used at our site.

Acceptance of these Afrosugar.com Web Site Privacy Policy Terms and Conditions

By using this site, you signify your agreement to the terms and conditions of this Afrosugar.com Web Site Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these terms and conditions, please do not use the site. Please read the following carefully. If you have any questions or concerns, please send us an email at admin@afrosugar.com.

Types of information That We Collect

There are two kinds of information web sites can obtain about you: “Anonymous Information” and “Personally Identifiable Information”.

“Anonymous Information” is aggregate data that web sites use to administer their sites. For example, when you visit Afrosugar.com, our web servers automatically log your IP address. An IP address is unique string of numbers that is assigned to your computer by your Internet Service Provider. We use IP addresses to help us administer our Web Site, diagnose problems with our servers, o collect broad demographic information for aggregate use.  We do not link IP addresses to personally identifiable information.

Our servers automatically collect certain non-personally identifying information, such asyour computer’s IP address, the type of browser in use, and pages viewed, streams viewed or listened to and when you visit our Sites. We use this information to understand how visitors navigate through our Sites and use our products, to enhance your experience while using our Sites, and to make the materials we post as valuable to visitors aspossible. We do not link this information to personally identifiable information.

To enhance your experience with our sites, many of our web pages may also use “cookies.” Cookies are text files we place in your computer’s browser to store your preferences. Cookies, by themselves, do not tell us your e-mail address or other personally identifiable information unless you choose to provide this information to us.

We use cookies for the following reasons:

(i) To identify who you are and, if applicable, to access your account information;
(ii) To estimate our audience size and patterns;
(iii) To ensure that you are not asked to register twice;
(iv) To control how often visitors see similar ads;
(v) To track preferences and to improve and update our Web Site; and
(vi) To track the progress and number of entries in some of our promotions and contests. 

Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but if you prefer, you can change your browser to prevent that.  However, you may not be able to take full advantage of a Web Site if you do so.  Cookies are specific to the server that created them and cannot be accessed by other servers, which means they cannot be used to track your movements around the web. Although they do identify a user’s computer, cookies do not personally identify customers or passwords.  Credit card information is not stored in cookies. 

Some of the advertisements appearing on Afrosugar.com are delivered by third parties, such as Google and DoubleClick. In the course of serving advertisements on our site, these entities may place or recognize a unique “cookie” in your browser’s cache, and may use anonymous information (including date/time of the banner ad displayed, the ad that was displayed and the IP address of the visitor) about your visits to this and other web sites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you and to collect statistical information. Again, as was pointed out earlier, cookies do not store or transmit personally identifiable information.

We may from time to time supply the owners or operators of third party sites from which it is possible to link to our Web Sites with information relating to the number of users linking to our Web Sites from their sites. You cannot be identified from this information.

We sometimes use the non-personally identifiable information that we collect to improve the design and content of our site and to enable us to personalize your Internet experience. We also may use this information in the aggregate to analyze site usage, as well as to offer you products, programs, or services.

“Personally Identifiable Information” is any information that personally identifies you, such as your name, email address, telephone number, and information about your interests in and use of various products, programs, and services. Visitors to Afrosugar.com may voluntarily supply certain personally identifiable information in connection with (i) contest or sweepstakes registration, (ii) subscription registration for services which require subscription (such as email newsletters), (iii) requests for membership information, and (iv) e-commerce transactions. In addition, personally identifiable information is often voluntarily provided in connection with certain content submissions, community postings ( i.e., forums or bulletin boards), blog comments and suggestions, user polls or surveys. We may also use this information to maintain your account and send you announcements of new Site features, special offers and promotional material that we think may be of interest to you.

We may also disclose personally identifiable information if we are required to do so by law or we in good faith believe that such action is necessary to (a) comply with the law or with legal process; (b) protect and defend our rights and property; (c) protect against misuse or unauthorized use of the Site; or (d) protect the personal safety or property of our users or the public. Please note that we may not provide you with notice prior to disclosure in such cases.

If the visitor does not want this information collected and used by us for the disclosed internal purposes, the visitor is given an opportunity to ‘opt-out.’ Our visitors need to recognize, however, that under certain circumstances, if they select to ‘opt-out’ they may not be eligible for certain activities for which the personally identifiable information is needed. For example, if a contest participant elects to ‘opt-out’ on permitting us to collect and use their personal information; we cannot contact them if they win without using such information.

Afrosugar.com will never willfully disclose any personally identifiable information about our online audience to any third party without first obtaining the user’s expressed permission. We do not collect personally identifiable information from our visitors other than what is supplied to us on a voluntary basis.

Disclosure of Information Through Business Transfers

As we continue to develop our business, we may buy, merge or partner with other companies or businesses, and in so doing, acquire customer information. In such transactions, user information may be among the transferred assets. Similarly, in the event that a portion or substantially all of Afrosugar.com’s assets are sold or transferred to a third party, customer information (including your email address) would likely be one of the transferred business assets.

Collection of Information by Third-Party Sites and Sponsors

The Site may contain links to third party web sites not owned or controlled by Afrosugar.com . We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such third party web sites. Inclusion of any linked web site on any of our Sites does not imply or express an approval or endorsement of the linked web site by us, or of any of the content, opinions, products or services provided on these web sites. Even if an affiliation exists between Afrosugar.com and a third-party web site, we exercise no control over linked sites. Each of these linked sites maintains its own independent privacy and data collection policies and procedures. If you visit a web site that is linked to from one of our Sites, we encourage you to consult that web site’s privacy policy before providing any personal information and whenever interacting with any web site.

Public Forums

Afrosugar.com may make chat rooms, forums, message boards, and/or newsgroups available to users. Please remember that any information that is disclosed in these areas becomes public information and you should exercise caution when deciding to disclose your personal information.

Our Commitment to Security

Our Site has reasonable security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. Security of information communicated by or to us over the Internet is of utmost concern to us; however, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Please note that your email, like most, if not all, non-encrypted Internet communications, may be accessed and viewed by other Internet users, without your knowledge and permission, while in transit to us. For that reason, to protect your privacy, please do not use email to communicate information to us that you consider confidential. While we strive to protect your personal information, Afrosugar.com cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or through this Site. Once we receive your transmission, we will use reasonable efforts to ensure its security on our internal systems. Depending on the nature of the inquiry, your communication may be discarded or archived.

Choice/Opt-Out Options

Afrosugar.com provide users the opportunity to opt-out of receiving communications from us and/or our partners at the point where we request information about the visitor. If you do not opt-out at that time, but later decide that you do not wish to receive future communications from us, you may remove your information from our database and from our mailing list by entering the exact email address where you are currently receiving email from Afrosugar.com.

Changes in this Privacy Statement

Afrosugar.com reserves the right, at our sole discretion, to change, modify, add, or remove portions of this privacy statement at any time. If we change this privacy statement in ways that affect the personally identifying information we have collected through Afrosugar.com, we will post those changes in this space and advise you of choices you may have as a result of those changes. You are responsible for reviewing this Privacy Statement periodically to ensure that you are aware of any changes to it.
