Bullard International´s RodBuilder.co.uk, an online rod builder´s community
operated and managed by Silvia Davis is committed to protecting your privacy.
The RodBuilder.co.uk Statement of Privacy applies to the Web forum, Web surveys,
and other supporting panel Web forums produced and maintained by Bullard
International.
If you have questions regarding this statement, please
email us.
Privacy Commitment and Philosophy
Socratic Technologies is an international market research firm specializing in
online research techniques and online panel development and management. Privacy
and confidentiality of your personal information is our priority.
Bullard International surveys are conducted for market research purposes only.
All of our research studies report information in aggregate form (i.e.,
information about groups, not individuals). No one will ever attempt to sell you
anything as a direct result of your participation in one of our surveys. All
individual information provided is held strictly confidential.
Collection of Personal Information
To join RodBuilder.co.uk, we invite you to complete a brief registration that
gathers some personal information. We ask that you provide your given name,
first and last, and email address so that we can send you email invitations to
participate in discounts and specials on Bullard Products.
For example, if you participate in a RodBuilder.co.uk survey and elect not to
join our incentive questionnaires and games, the only information we will
preserve is your email address for the purposes of contacting you if you are
eligible to receive a survey prize (e.g., you are a prize drawing winner).
Unless you opt-in to join RodBuilder.co.uk, you will most likely not hear from
us.
Usage of Cookies
A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Web page
server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your
computer. One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide you a convenience
feature that will save you time. For example, if you register with
RodBuilder.co.uk, a cookie could be used to help the forum recall your specific
information and/or preferences on subsequent visits. Then, when you access the
forum in the future, the information previously provided can be retrieved, so
you can easily use the RodBuilder.co.uk features
you customized on your previous visit. While some RodBuilder.co.uk web forum
features require use of cookies, you always have the option to disable cookies
while registering or completing a survey without affecting your participation.
Member Services
Bullard International provides you with a “My Profile” area of our Web forum,
where you may correct or update your membership information, receive and send
messages/ private emails to other members, view posts-threads-articles-blogs, or
if you were having a bad day you may 'opt-out' (i.e., remove) yourself from the
forum by sending your request of removal to “admin”™ and your request will be
handled in a timely manner. We will always be glad to have you register again
when your day becomes sunny.
RodBuilder.co.uk members who participate in our Rod Builder Web surveys often
receive “Bullard Bucks” for their participation. Winners are notified by email
of their winnings. We will typically post a list of survey incentive 'winners'
on the RodBuilder.co.uk web forum and update this list monthly, taking into
account winners' privacy by only posting abbreviated name and location (e.g.,
Silvia D. from Texas won a $30 in Bullard Bucks). We will never post a winner's
full name and/or address on our Winners page without an individual´s prior
permission.
Security of Personal Information
RodBuilder.co.uk and Bullard International take strict measures to ensure every
aspect of your information is kept secure, protecting your personal information
from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure on computer servers in a
controlled, secure environment. Access to all personal information is restricted
and limited to a few key personnel. RodBuilder.co.uk will never ask you for
private information such as your credit card number or any financial
information. If you receive an email that seems suspicious by nature please
forward it, along with the email header, to
BullardIntlD2@aol.comYour profile information is highly
confidential and will be used only by RodBuilder.co.uk or Bullard International
to email you information about your winner notifications, and other information
relevant to your membership.
