WideOpenTee Privacy Policy
We know that you care how information about you is used and shared. We
appreciate your trust and we will do so carefully and sensibly. By visiting our site,
you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
We partner with third parties in providing information about golf courses.
Will you or your partners send unsolicited email?
Our system powers permission-based Internet marketing only; sending
personalized messages from partners and affiliates to customers. The transmission
of unsolicited commercial email is expressly forbidden through our system.
How can I stop a partner from sending me more email?
Each email sent through our system contains an easy, automated way for you to
stop receiving email from that partner. Simply follow the instructions at the end of
any email. If you have received unwanted, unsolicited email, please paste a copy of
that email with your comments to our contact form for review.
How do you help prevent unsolicited email?
* We only allow partners to communicate with individuals with whom they
already have a relationship. If other sources of information are used, they
may only send email to individuals who have expressly shared their address
or opted-in.
* We require partners to personalize their communication with information that
indicates they have an existing relationship with the customer.
* If partners use an external source for customer data, we require those
partners to supply the source to us in the event recipients complain about
receiving unsolicited email.
What personal information do you gather?
The information we gather from customers helps us personalize and continually
improve your experience. Below are the types of information we gather.
* Information You Give Us: We receive and store any information you enter on
our website/email or give us in any other way. You can choose not to provide
certain information, but then you might not be able to take advantage of
many of our features. We use the information that you provide for purposes
such as responding to your requests, customizing future promotions,
improving our functionality and communicating with you.
* Automatic Information: We receive and store certain types of information
whenever you interact with us. For example, like many websites, we use
"cookies," and we obtain certain types of information when your Web
browser accesses our email program. A number of companies offer utilities
designed to help you visit websites anonymously. Although we will not be
able to provide you with a personalized experience if we cannot recognize
you, we want you to be aware that these tools exist.
* Email Communications: To help us make emails more useful and interesting,
we often receive a confirmation when you open email from us if your
computer supports such capabilities. We also compare our customer list to
lists received from other companies, in an effort to avoid sending
unnecessary messages to our customers. If you do not want to receive email
from us, you can send an email to at any time.
* Information from Other Sources: For reasons such as improving
personalization of our service (for example, providing better product
recommendations or special offers that we think will interest you), we might
receive information about you from other sources and add it to your account
information. Sometimes we also receive updated delivery and address
information from these other sources so that we can correct our records and
deliver your next purchase or communication more easily.
What about cookies?
Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your computer's hard drive
through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser and to
provide features such as personalization and your tee time preferences.
Do you share information you receive?
Information about our customers is an important part of our business, and we will
not sell it to others. We share customer information only with our other golf course
properties.
* Agents: We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on
our behalf. Examples include email promotions, data entry, removing
repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing
marketing assistance, processing credit card payments and providing
customer service. They have access to personal information needed to
perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.
* Promotional Offers: Sometimes we send offers to selected groups of
customers on behalf of other businesses. When we do this, we do not give
that business your name and address. If you do not want to receive such
offers, please adjust your Profile Preferences.
* Business Transfers: As we continue to develop our business, we might sell
or buy additional golf courses or assets. In such transactions, customer
information generally is one of the transferred business assets. Also, in the
unlikely event any or all of our assets are acquired, customer information will
be one of the transferred assets.
* Protection of ourselves and others: We release account and other personal
information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; or
protect the rights, property or safety of ourselves or others. This includes
exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud
protection and credit risk reduction.
* With Your Consent: Other than as set out above, you will receive notice
when information about you might go to third parties, and you will have an
opportunity to choose not to share the information.
How secure is information about you?
* We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by
using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you
input.
* Our SSL certificate is provided by digicert Security Services. We use the URL
when transmitting secure
information.
* We reveal only the last four digits of your credit card number when
confirming a reservation. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card
number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing.
* It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your
password and to your computer. Be sure to sign out when finished using a
shared computer.
