Mason-Dixon Polling is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy describes the ways in which we manage and protect the information you provide when visiting our site and subscribing to our online services.
Personally Identifiable Information We Collect
We collect personally identifiable information when you provide it to us, such as when you subscribe to our service, sign up for email newsletters, or to otherwise communicate with us. Several of the services that we offer, including but not limited to file downloads require registration as a condition of use; when you register with one of our sites you are no longer anonymous.
As a Mason-Dixon Polling customer you can also expect to receive relevant email updates on polls released and other services.
Cookies
As you probably know, cookies are small pieces of information that many Web sites store on your computer's hard drive when you visit them. They don't tell us who you are unless you've specifically given us personally identifiable information. Cookies stored on your hard drive by a Mason-Dixon Polling site are not accessible to other sites.
Like many other web sites, Mason-Dixon Polling sites use cookies to improve your experience with our online content. For example, we may use a cookie to identify members so they don't have to re-enter a user id and password when they wish to download a poll or modify their profile. By allowing us to better understand how users interact with the site over time, cookies also help us improve your experience and deliver more relevant content to you. Cookies may be created directly by our sites for these purposes, or by third-party companies operating on our behalf. However, our cookies do not contain any information that is, in itself, personally identifying. You need not have cookies turned on to visit our sites, though cookies may be required in order for you to participate in certain areas. If you choose to become a member of a Mason-Dixon Polling web site, you must have cookies enabled to access any member related pages (i.e. Subscription Service).
Most web browsers automatically accept cookies but allow you to modify security settings so you can approve or reject cookies on a case-by-case basis.
Children
Mason-Dixon Polling web sites are not intended for use by children, especially those under 13. No one under age 13 is allowed to provide any personal information or use our public discussion areas, forums, and chats. Minors under the age of 18 are prohibited from making purchases, including subscriptions, on our sites.
If your children disclose information about themselves in our public discussion areas, they may get unsolicited messages from other parties. Accordingly, you should tell them not to do so.
Changes to the Mason-Dixon Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy may be modified from time to time. Any modifications to our privacy policy will be reflected first on this page, so check back often. If there is a significant change, we will indicate on our sites that our privacy policy has changed and provide a link to the new policy.
