 | Privacy Policy |  |
Your information is safe with www.Chinese-Flute.com. Our site is running on a secure server
in the United States. Furthermore, www.Chinese-Flute.com uses paypal for our
checkout, which means that your information is just that much more secure.
TYPES OF INFORMATION COLLECTED
-
Payment Information
www.Chinese-Flute.com uses paypal for online checkout. Paypal,
in turn, sends us the information you used to checkout with.
This information includes:
- How much money you paid to us.
- Your Paypal email address.
- Your Paypal payer ID.
- Your Paypal address status (confirmed or unconfirmed).
- Your shipping address information.
That's about it.
-
Posted Message Information
If you post a message on www.Chinese-Flute.com, it is entirely
up to you to decide which information you show. We will not require
any contact information. And the information you give us will be
stored completely securely. Please note we always reserve the right to
remove and delete any message posted.
-
Login Information
www.Chinese-Flute.com may provide login services, particularly for
teachers searching for students, students searching for teachers, and
affiliate resellers.
We will ask you for the following information:
- Your name.
- Your email address.
- Your IP address.
- A username to use on www.Chinese-Flute.com.
- A password to use on www.Chinese-Flute.com.
- Your phone number.
- Your street address.
- If you are a teacher or a student.
- Your experience with playing the dizi.
After you login, we will give you the option to either make your
contact information public or private.
We will verify your email address, and track your IP address and logins when server resources are available.
This is done in case of abuse of service, which would be something like you creating fake logins, or doing
fraudulent activities, etc.
www.Chinese-Flute.com never
gives other parties passwords, which are always 100% private.
We HIGHLY recommend that you use a secondary password here on our site,
which is not the same as for your more important accounts. For example, do
not use your online banking password on our website. We currently do not
use encryption for login information, and even if we did, spyware and other
malicious software would still be able to snatch the password. Using a
secondary password on our site makes it all the less likely that malicious
software will find your login info.
SERVER SECURITY
You could say our server is super secure:
- We have a very small number of administrators who ever login (less than ten).
- We do not use simple usernames, which make it extremely unlikely that anyone is going to crack into
our server using a dictionary attack or anything like that.
- No FTP - we do not have an FTP service running.
- We also do not have any other insecure services running, not that we know of.
- Dedicated server - we have a dedicated server, which means that we do not share our server with any
other people that we do not know.
- We have lots of experience with IT - we are software engineers! Look it up.
This means that if you are a hacker and want our information, you can't hide, we will find you. If you
are a customer, your information was never safer than with two software engineers.
- Anyway, you do not need to worry about our server, because paypal handles all the sensitive payment
information for us.
EMAIL
We currently do not participate in email marketing. But when we do, we will give you the opt-out option, to remove
your name from our email lists forever.
If you are making a purchase, we will not use your paypal email address for email marketing unless you give us permission to.
EDITING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
If you have an account with us - with a username and password - you may login and edit all your information.
You may also decide whether you would like to make your information public or private. Public = anybody on the
Internet can read it on our website. Private = nobody can read it on our website.
POLICY CHANGES
From time to time we will add on new updates to the system, which will require us to revise this privacy policy.
Please be aware that new versions will be posted on this web site, so please check back periodically for
updates.
