Privacy Policy
After reading about how
David's Bridal will actually sell your name to vendors and they in turn could
sell your information to others, I wanted to make sure that the Maine DJ Directory had a clear and
easy to understand privacy policy.
For those curious about David's policy: "Third Parties: David's Bridal may
also choose to sell, trade or rent your personally identifiable information to
third parties providing offers that we believe would be attractive to our
customers. If you wish to opt out of these offers, please send an email to
remove@davidsbridal.net. Please note that we are not responsible for the privacy
policies or practices of these third parties."
That does NOT happen at the Maine DJ Directory

DJ Directory will NEVER sell or provide your Email addresses to a third party for marketing purposes unless you

Persons who communicate with the Maine DJ Directory, and therefore supply a DJ or DJs with an email address

specifically tell the DJ(s) to not do so.

Third Party Policy
Third Party Marketing is defined as companies that have no direct relationship
with the Maine DJ Directory customers. Third parties will not contact you
through the use of our email newsletter and promotions lists except through
advertisements within our newsletters themselves, or if you ask to be placed on
a list to receive email from our advertisers on subjects of interest.
Website links accessed through the the Maine DJ Directory website have separate
privacy and data collection practices, independent of us. Study their policies
carefully before providing information. the Maine DJ Directory has no
responsibility or liability for these independent policies or actions.

our sites. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure
the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical,
electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we
collect online.
Electronic Security
Private account information is located behind a firewall; it is not directly
connected to the Internet. Information behind the firewall on the customer
server is not available to unauthorized computers. The firewall is a recognized
industry standard and exceeds the standards set by the International Computer
Security Association (ICSA), an industry authority on Internet security.
Cookies
New technologies are emerging on the Internet that help us customize visitor
experiences. At the Maine DJ Directory, we use cookies to help us provide you
with a fast, convenient experience at our web site. A cookie is a data element a
web site sends to your browser. It is stored on your computer and tells a web
site that a previous visitor has returned. It doesn't automatically give
personal information about you, like your email address or name.
If you want to give us personal information through registration, then a cookie
will help us deliver content based on your interests and preferences. Cookies
mainly help us monitor whether our web site is functioning properly and to
perform site traffic analysis.
Encryption
Encryption is a process by which we use software to scramble sensitive
information while it is in transit to the Maine DJ Directory. It is based on a
key that has two different parts: public and private.
The public part of the key is distributed to those you want to communicate with.
The private part is for recipients' use only. When you send personal information
to us, you use our public key to encrypt your personal information. That means
if your information is intercepted during the transmission, it is scrambled and
very difficult to decrypt. Once we receive your encrypted personal information,
we use the private part of our key to decode it.
Commitment to Children's Privacy
Our website is not directed at children. However, children may, unknown to us,
access our web sites and provide information. They may request information
concerning my DJ services and attempt to book the Maine DJ Directory. We will
require any children known to us as children to seek the consent of their
parents or guardian before providing any information about themselves or their
households on the Internet.
