Privacy Policy

Consuming, Inc., which owns and operates ShopBalsamicVinegar.com ("SBV"), provides this Privacy Policy to inform users of its policies and procedures regarding the collection, use and disclosure of information received from users of www.medtravelguide.com (this "Site"). This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. SBV will notify users of any material changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on the Site. Please consult this policy regularly for any changes. By using our Site you are consenting to our processing of your information as set forth in this Privacy Policy now and as amended by SBV, which means the use of such information in any way, including but not limited to collecting, storing and deleting, using, combining and disclosing information and transferring it internationally.

Information Collection and Use

SBV does not collect personally identifiable information, such as your name, email address, or phone number, (collectively "Personally Identifiable Information"). However, we may share certain aggregate information with our partners, customers, advertisers and potential users.

Cookies

Like many websites, SBV uses "cookies" to collect information. A cookie is a small data file that is transferred to your computer's hard disk for record-keeping purposes. SBV uses cookies for two purposes. First, SBV may utilize persistent cookies to save your registration ID and login password for future logins to the Site if you are a registered user, or for other purposes even if you are not a registered user. Second, SBV utilizes session ID cookies to enable certain features of the Site, to better understand how you interact with the Site, and to monitor aggregate usage by users and web traffic routing on the Site. Unlike persistent cookies, session cookies are deleted from your computer when you disconnect from the Site and Service. Third party advertisers on the Site may also place or read cookies on your browser. You can instruct your browser, by editing its options, to stop accepting cookies or to prompt you before accepting a cookie from the websites you visit. If you do not accept cookies, however, you may not be able to use all portions of the Site or all functionality of the Service.

Web Beacons/Log Information

When you visit our Site, our servers will automatically collect log information. This information may include your Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type, browser language, the date and time of your request, and one or more cookies that may uniquely identify your browser. We collect log information so that we can properly administer our system and gather aggregate information about how our Site is being used, including the pages visitors are viewing. We, and our advertisers, also use web beacons, sometimes called single-pixel GIF’s, that momentarily direct your browser to a server other than SBV in a way that may not be apparent to you. Web beacons are used to count users who visited specific pages. We do not link any identifying information to the web beacons.

Disclosure of Information

SBV reserves the right to disclose any web site visitor information (such as IP address, date and time of access, pages accessed, or links clicked) to relevant authorities where we have reason to believe that such disclosure is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be infringing or threatening to infringe, or who may otherwise be causing injury to or interference with, the title, rights, interests or property of SBV, our users, customers, partners, other web site users or anyone else who could be harmed by such activities, or in relation to a divestiture, merger or sale of assets.

We also reserve the right to disclose any web site visitor information in response to a subpoena or other judicial order or when we reasonably believe that such disclosure is required by law, regulation or administrative order of any court, governmental or regulatory authority.

Links to Other Sites

This Site contains links to other websites. If you choose to visit an advertiser or merchant by "clicking on" a merchant name, product image or other type of link, you will be directed to that third party's website. The fact that SBV links to a website or present a banner add or other type of advertisement is not an endorsement, authorization or representation of our affiliation with that third party. SBV does not exercise control over third party websites. These other websites may place their own cookies or other files on your computer, collect data or solicit personal information from you. This Privacy Policy addresses the use and disclosure of information that we collect from you through this Site. Other sites follow different rules regarding the use or disclosure of the personal information you submit to them.

International Users

This Site is intended for and directed to users in the United States. If you are a user accessing this Site from the European Union, Asia or any other region with laws or regulations governing personal data collection, use, and disclosure, that differ from United States laws, please be advised that through your continued use of this Site, which is governed by U.S. law, this Privacy Policy, and SBV’s Terms of Service, you are transferring your personal information to the United States and you consent to such transfer.
