Security Information
Our site has physical, electronic, and managerial security measures in place to
protect the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under our control. We
take many measures to protect this information while it is stored:
- We monitor system and application activity logs to identify any unusual activity,
from authorized or unauthorized individuals accessing our systems or making changes
to stored information. We regularly perform preventative system maintenance and
monitoring to ensure the security of our data systems.
- Our servers are maintained in secure facilities. BudgetBeats.com network operations
personnel monitor our data center 24 hours per day, seven days per week.
- All our employees sign confidentiality agreements and only our employees who need
information to perform their job and who have passed background checks are granted
access to personally identifiable information or any other confidential data.
You do not need to set up a user id and password to use our web sites because we
do not require you to establish your identity when you visit our sites. However,
if you have subscribed for some of our services or are a customer seeking access
to your account information, you will have to provide passwords. We recommend you
do not divulge your password to anyone. BudgetBeats.com will never ask you for your
password in an unsolicited telephone call or e-mail. You are responsible for the
secrecy of your passwords. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet
or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while
we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot ensure or warrant the
security of any information you transmit, and you do so at your own risk. Once we
receive your transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our
systems. You can report network abuse and any risk of security violations to us
by e-mailing support@BudgetBeats.com.
Children
We comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA). COPPA
and its accompanying FTC regulation establish United States federal law that protects
the privacy of children using the Internet. BudgetBeats.com does not knowingly collect
contact information or personal information from children under 13. Our sites are
not intended to solicit information of any kind from children under 13, and we have
designed our sites to block our knowing acceptance of information from children
under 13 wherever age-related information is requested. It is possible that by fraud
or deception we may receive information pertaining to children under 13. If we are
notified of this, as soon as we verify the information, we will immediately delete
the information. If you want to notify us of our receipt of information by children
under 13, please do so by e-mailing us at support@BudgetBeats.com.
