Information Collection and Use:

Groupdyne, Inc is the sole owner of the information collected on www.groupdyne.com. Groupdyne, Inc collects information from our users at several different points on our Web site.

Registration, Join, Memberships, Win:

If you request to receive our email or enroll in any promotional program, such as contests that we may sponsor, users are required to give their contact information (such as name and email address). We may use this information to send the user marketing emails. We do not rent, lease nor distribute our customer’s email or mailing address to any companies. If you wish to remove your name it can be done by emailing our Customer Support at info@groupdyne.com. Or, use the "SafeUnsubscribe" link located at the bottom of every newsletter sent. If you subscribe to our mailing list, we may email you for marketing promotions, special deals, new products, and maybe other company’s products, but we will absolutely not provide your addresses to any other company. By submitting your information and comments, you authorize us to print your name and comments as a review for the product listed.

Log Files:

Like most standard Web site servers we use log files. This includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user’s movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are tied to personally identifiable information to enable our Web-based service. We use log files to analyze user movement. However, we promise that we will release any of this to any third party without your permission.

Communications from the Site:

Special Offers and Updates will occasionally be sent for information on services, special deals, and newsletters. Service Announcements on rare occasions will be sent out. For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance we might send users an email. Generally, users may not opt-out of these communications. However, these communications are not promotional in nature.

Links:

This Web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we, Groupdyne, Inc, are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We strongly encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every Web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Web site.

Contests:

Our site requests information from users via various promotions or contests. Participation in these promotions or contest is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information. The requested information typically includes contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code). Contact information will be used to notify the winners and award prizes. Users’ personally identifiable information is not shared with any other company.

Security & Privacy:

This Web site takes every precaution to protect our users’ information. When users submit sensitive information via the Web site, their information is protected both online and off-line.

We value the trust of our customers, and we respect your privacy in handling personally-identifiable information relating to you and your communication with us. This Privacy Statement describes the personally identifiable information we gather about you, what we do with it, the safeguards we have in place to protect it, and how you can control our use of it.

We collect personally identifiable information that you voluntarily provide to us when you submit a request on the site, enroll in a promotional or rewards program, give us a telephone call or send us a letter or e-mail. This personally identifiable information may include your name, mailing address, e-mail address, telephone number, fax number, credit card number and expiration date, and other optional demographic information.

In addition, we may need to collect other personally identifiable information, such as your age and occupation when you elect to participate in various promotional activities we offer. This is done only to verify that you are of an age legally required to participate. After submitting this information, we do not process this information for our own use and we do not share it with any third parties.

You may browse our web site without supplying any personally identifiable information, but we will need to collect personally identifiable information to process your requests to restaurants or venues or to send you offers or information that you request.

"Cookies"
We reserve the right to use this technology in future updates. In the event that we choose to implement this technology, in order to use our web site, your computer must accept the use of cookies, which are small data files that are stored on your computer’s hard drive. Cookies do not contain personally-identifying information and do not give us control over your computer. Some of our business allies whose sites are accessible from our site may also use cookies, but we have no access to or control over these cookies. The information that we store in cookies is used to track your activity at our web site and to access your individualized settings to make your visit more convenient and to make it unnecessary for you to re-enter this information when you make return visits to our site.

We will not disclose personally-identifiable information about you to others except as disclosed in this Privacy Statement or as specifically authorized by you at the time the information is collected.

We may enter into marketing relationships with other companies that provide services or information that we believe may be of interest to our customers. We may share non-identifiable aggregated information with these companies. We will not disclose your e-mail address, telephone number, or credit card account information for these purposes.

We occasionally conduct surveys, contests, or other promotional programs that involve the collection of personally-identifiable information, and we may send promotional emails to such participants from time to time. Participation in these programs is completely voluntary, so that you have a choice whether to disclose the requested information without limiting your submit requests to restaurants or venues. Information requested may include contact information (such as name and email), and demographic information (such as gender, zip code, or age). Contact information will be used to notify participants of the outcome of such promotions. Survey information may be used or disclosed for purposes of monitoring or improving the performance of our catalog or Web site operations.

We generally do not market to or collect information through our Web site from children under age 13, if possible to identify them. If we conduct a special online program that is open to children, children under age 13 will be permitted to participate only with the consent of a parent or guardian or will otherwise be given the opportunity to participate without the need to provide personally identifying information. But confirmation of the age of any user is beyond our control.

We may share personally identifiable information with law enforcement or other entities as required by law or as we reasonably determine to be necessary to protect our rights or the rights of others, to prevent harm to persons or property, to fight fraud, or to enforce our web site terms of use.

If users have any questions about the security at our Web site, users can send an email to  info@groupdyne.com.

Sharing Personal Information:

Legal Disclaimer. Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law, or in such cases wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on our Web site.

Updating/Deactivating Personal Information:

If a user’s personally identifiable information changes (such as zip code, phone, email or postal address), or if a user no longer desires our service, we provide a way to correct, update or deactivate users’ personally identifiable information. This can usually be done by emailing our Customer Support at info@groupdyne.com.

Notification of Changes:

If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement, and other places we deem appropriate so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected.

If, however, we are going to use users’ personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection we will notify users via email. Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner. However, if users have opted out of all communication with the site, or deactivated their account, then they will not be contacted, nor will their personal information be used in this new manner. In addition, if we make any material changes in our privacy practices that do not affect user information already stored in our database, we will not post a notice on our Web site or notify users of the change via email or direct mail.
