Scope of Privacy Policy
This policy applies to your use of the The Dinner Table Documentary sites and services owned or operated by The Dinner Table (“The Dinner Table”. "we," "us," or "our"), including thedinnertabledoc.com, and any other site that we may own or operate currently or in the future (collectively, the "Site(s)"). Unless we say otherwise, all references to the Sites in this policy include all such sites. This policy does not apply to your use of unaffiliated sites to which any of the Sites only link. This policy covers only information collected on the Sites and does not cover any information collected offline by us.Personal Identification Information
We may request personal identification information from you (such as your name, street address, telephone number, e-mail address, date of birth, and/or any other identifier that permits the physical or online contacting of you) in connection with your use of, or participation for thedinnertabledoc.com, our contests, sweepstakes, promotions, games, surveys, forums, content submissions, chats, bulletin boards, discussion groups, requests for suggestions, visitors' requests for free products or services, or additional information (including via e-mail to us), and in connection with other activities, services or resources we make available on any of our Sites. In all of these cases, we will collect personal identification information from you only if you voluntarily submit such information to us. Except as otherwise provided in this policy, we reasonably endeavor to ensure that we never intentionally disclose any personal identification information about you as an individual user to any third party without having received your permission (through opt-in or similar procedures) except as provided for herein or otherwise as permitted or required under law.
If you give us your permission, we may also use personal identification information for internal or external marketing and promotional purposes. On occasion, for example, we may send you e-mails or newsletters to introduce a product or a service that we think might be of interest to the users of our Sites. You may change your preferences regarding emails/newsletters at any time through the unsubscribe link in the newsletters or by logging into and changing the preferences in your account. For us to obtain your permission to send you this information, we will give you an opportunity to "opt-in" at the time your registration or may request for your personal information is made. If you do "opt-in," you may choose to "opt-out" at any time, even after you have provided personal information, by following the procedures set forth below at the end of this Privacy Policy.
We have the following exceptions to these policies: We will release specific information about you or your account to comply with any valid legal inquiry or process such as a search warrant, subpoena, statute or court order. We will also release specific information in special cases, such as if there is an attempted breach of the security of the Sites, or a physical or property threat to you or others. We may also transfer user information, including personally identifiable information, in connection with a corporate merger, consolidation, the sale of related assets or corporate division, or other fundamental corporate change. We may provide access to your personally identifiable information to our contractors who are performing services for us in connection with our Sites or the services that you have requested.
In addition, on occasion, we may collect personal identification information from you in connection with optional contests, special offers or promotions. We will share such information with necessary third parties for the purpose of carrying out the contest, special offer or promotion. Your participation in the contest, special offer or promotion constitutes your consent to such disclosure and use of such information and if you are under the age of eighteen (18) years old, we will also require parental consent.
We collect and use personal and financial information, such as name, address, credit card numbers and security codes, for the limited purposes offering visitors or members, who are of legal age to form a binding contract, the opportunity to purchase consumer products at our online store. To do so, visitors/members need to provide contact, shipping, billing and credit information. We do not store credit card information and only use this information to process the order and to send order confirmations via email, as well as to send information about products and services of interest and as otherwise required by law. We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input. Using teespring reveal only the last four digits of your credit card numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing.
Please note that if you give out personal information online—for example, on one of our public forums such as a message board or chat room, folder, facebook comment, public tweet, chat IM feature—that information can be collected and used by third parties. Although we strive to protect our users' privacy, we cannot guarantee the security of information you post in these public or private forums and have no control over how such third parties may use your information. You disclose such information at your own risk.
Privacy of Children
We understand that young people need special safeguards and privacy protection. We realize that they may not understand all the provisions of our policy or be able to make thoughtful decisions about the choices that are made available to our adult users. We strongly urge all parents to participate in their children's exploration of the Internet and any online services, monitor their online activity and to teach their children about protecting their personal information while online. We do not knowingly collect any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13. If a parent or guardian believes that The Dinner Table Doc has in its database the personally-identifiable information of a child under the age of 13, please contact info@thedinnertabledoc.com and we will use our best efforts to remove the information from our records.
The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA") requires that we inform parents and legal guardians about how we collect, use, and disclose personal information from children under 13 years of age; and that we obtain the consent of parents and guardians in order for children under 13 years of age to use certain features of our Web sites. Below we explain how we do that for these "kids." Also, when we use the term "parent" below, we mean to include legal guardians.
The Sites are not directed to children under the age of 13. We prohibit registration by children under the age of 13 for all interactive portions of the Sites. We will not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13.
We may, at our discretion, require users under 18 to obtain the consent of a parent or guardian to view certain content, and we may limit access to certain content to users above a specified age. You agree to abide by any such restrictions, and not to help anyone avoid these restrictions.
