Veterans
Adventures wants
you to have a positive
experience at this
website. We want you to
know that we respect the
privacy and security of
our users. Our goal is
to provide you with an
experience that delivers
the information and
resources that are
helpful to you. In
order to achieve this
goal, we collect
information from you. We
discuss our information
collection practices
below.
This Privacy
Policy sets forth the
privacy practices in
effect at the Veterans Adventures
website. If you do not
agree to these terms,
please do not access the
website.
What
Information is Collected
and How is it Used?
A. General
Collection and Use of
Personal Identifying
Information We will only
collect and use personal
identifying information
(such as a first and
last name, physical
address including a
street name, telephone
number, e-mail address,
etc.) when a user
voluntarily provides it
to us. In order to use
some portions of our
websites, or in order to
undertake certain
actions (such as contact
information). Such
disclosure is strictly
voluntary. In order to
contact us by e-mail,
however, you must
provide an e-mail
address.
We will use the
personal identifying
information we collect
for limited internal
purposes that may
include, but are not
limited to, processing
your transactions,
establishing the
identity of account
holders, utilization for
customer service,
development, content
processing, or content
classification, and
providing you with
information concerning
our services. We will
retain this information.
We also may use that
personal identifying
information to improve
and customize our
content.
We reserve the right
to disclose your
personal identifying
information, if we are
required to do so by
law, or in the good
faith belief that
disclosure of the
information is
reasonably necessary to
comply with legal
process, to respond to
claims, or to protect or
advance the rights,
property, safety, or
well-being of our
company, our employees,
customers, or the
public.
B. Collection
of Non-Personal
Identifying Information We collect and
use non-personal
identifying information,
including IP addresses
and web server log files
to track trends,
administer the website,
track user movement, and
gather demographic
information. We use this
non-personal identifying
information in the
aggregate and to
troubleshoot technical
errors. We do not
combine these types of
non-personal identifying
information with
personal identifying
information. We may also
share demographic
information with our
business partners,
sponsors, advertisers,
and companies that
control, are controlled
by, or are under common
control with Veterans Adventures.
C. Cookies
and Web Service Log File
Data We may place a
"cookie" or other
tracking or information
gathering device used in
the industry in the
browser files of a
user's computer. A
cookie is a piece of
data stored on the
user's hard drive
containing information
about the user. Cookies
enable us to track and
target the interests of
our users to enhance the
experience on our
website. We are able to
access only the cookies
that our sites set on
your computer, and we
are only able to
determine the type of
computer operating
system and browser that
you are using. We
collect information from
cookies and other
information gathering
devices and log files in
the aggregate. We do not
link the information
collected through
cookies or other devices
to personal information
that users submit online
while participating in
our activities. Users
can set their browsers
or third party software
to reject cookies. If a
user rejects the cookie,
the user may be unable
to use portions of our
website. Some of the
websites we provide
links to also may use
cookies. We have no
control over these
linked websites or
access to or control
over cookies or other
technology used by
linked websites.
D. Usage
Information Monitoring In order to
provide better system
stability, we monitor
sessions on our website.
This is for the purpose
of tracking and
troubleshooting any
technical problems that
may arise when someone
accesses our website. By
monitoring the usage, we
are better prepared to
solve system problems
faster. We do not
disclose this
information to any
outside vendor.
E. Security
Veterans
Adventures has taken
steps to ensure that
personal identifying
information collected in
the future is secure,
and we have limited the
number of people who
have access to the
information, by
electronic security
systems and password
protections that guard
against unauthorized
access. Veterans
Adventures may provide
links to websites
outside of Veterans
Adventures. These
websites may not have
the same privacy
policies as Veterans Adventures.
Veterans
Adventures takes
reasonable care in
recommending these
websites but is not
responsible for their
content or privacy
policies. We urge users
to read the privacy
statement of an outside
website when leaving our
site and linking to an
outside website.
We use
industry-standard
encryption technologies
when transferring and
receiving consumer data
exchanged with our
site. We have
appropriate security
measures in place in our
physical facilities to
protect against the
loss, misuse or
alteration of
information that we have
collected from you at
our site.
F. Other Use

time we may send users
e-mail messages
regarding information or
offers from our partners

control, are controlled
by, or are under common
control with Veterans

with their telephone
number on-line will only
receive telephone
contact from us with
information regarding
orders they have placed
on-line.
Ad Servers: We do not
partner with or have
special relationships
with any ad server
companies.
From time to time, we
may use customer
information for new,
unanticipated uses not
previously disclosed in
our privacy notice. If
our information
practices change at some
time in the future we
will post the policy
changes to our website
to notify you of these
changes and provide you
with the ability to opt
out of these new uses.
If you are concerned
about how your
information is used, you
should check back at our
website periodically or
contact us.
G. How to

was originally collected
