When you voluntarily provide personally identifiable information to ROVE, we will make sure you are informed about who is collecting the information, how and why the information is being collected and the types of uses ROVE will make of the information.

At the time you provide your personally identifiable information, ROVE will notify you of your options regarding our use of your personally identifiable information, including whether we will share it with outside companies (See Section C (Choice) below). This Privacy Policy describes the types of other companies that may want to send you information about their products and services and therefore may want to share your personally identifiable information, provided you have given ROVE permission to do so (See Section D (Use: ROVE’s Use of Personally Identifiable Information) below).

ROVE’s Site may be linked to Internet web sites operated by other companies. Some of these third party web sites may be co-branded with a ROVE logo, even though they are not operated or maintained by ROVE. ROVE’s Site also carries advertisements from other companies. ROVE is not responsible for the privacy practices of web sites operated by third parties that are linked to our Site or for the privacy practices of third party or national Internet advertising companies. Once you leave a ROVE Site via such a link or by clicking on an advertisement, ROVE’s Privacy Policy no longer applies and you should check the applicable privacy policy of the third party or advertiser web site to determine how they will handle any personally identifiable information they collect from you.

ROVE will not use the personally identifiable information you provide to us for purposes different from the purpose for which it was submitted, or share your personally identifiable information with third parties that are not affiliated with ROVE, unless we obtain your permission.

D. USE: ROVE’s use of personally identifiable information.

ROVE will use your personally identifiable information provided under this Privacy Policy in a manner that is consistent with this Privacy Policy. If ROVE obtains personally identifiable information from a third party, such as a business partner, our use of that information is governed by this Privacy Policy.

ROVE may share your personally identifiable information with companies that are affiliated with us. Provided you have given us permission, ROVE may also share your personally identifiable information with advertisers and business partners that are not affiliated with ROVE, but would like to send you information about their products and services. For example, ROVE may share your personally identifiable information with the companies who supply prizes for ROVE’s contests and may have special offers or promotions that might be of interest to ROVE users. However, you will always have the opportunity to instruct us not to share your information with third parties when personally identifiable information is collected. Moreover, we will never share your credit card information with third parties except those ROVE uses to perform tasks (such as order fulfillment and payment processing) required to complete purchases you make through ROVE Sites.

ROVE employees, agents, and contractors must have a legitimate business reason to obtain access to your personally identifiable information. ROVE may share your personally identifiable information with outside contractors or agents who help us manage our information activities (i.e., sweepstakes administration, order fulfillment, statistical analyses) but they may only use your personally identifiable information to provide ROVE with a specific service and not for any other purpose.

ROVE may also enter into agreements with outside companies that possess the technology that allows ROVE to customize the advertising and marketing messages you receive on our Site. Your non-personally identifiable information and click stream data about your activities on our Site may be shared with these companies so this customization may be accomplished. These companies will not share your information with any third party or use it for any other purpose. Anonymous click stream and demographic information may also be shared with ROVE’s advertisers and business partners.

There may be instances when ROVE may disclose personally identifiable information without providing you with a choice in order to protect the legal rights of ROVE, other entities of ROVE ULTRA EXPEDITIONS, LLC or their employees, agents and contractors; to protect the safety and security of visitors to our Site; to protect against fraud or for risk management purposes; or to comply with the law or legal process. In addition, if ROVE sells all or part of its business or makes a sale or transfer of assets or is otherwise involved in a merger or business transfer, ROVE may transfer your personally identifiable information to a third party as part of that transaction.

E. SECURITY: ROVE protects the security of personally identifiable information.

ROVE uses reasonable administrative, technical, personnel and physical measures to safeguard personally identifiable information in its possession against loss, theft and unauthorized use, disclosure or modification. In addition, ROVE uses reasonable methods to make sure that personally identifiable information is accurate, up-to-date and appropriately complete. However, no security system is impenetrable. ROVE cannot warrant or guarantee the security of its servers, nor can it guarantee that information that you supply will not be intercepted while being transmitted to ROVE over the Internet.

F. ACCESS: How to access, correct, or delete your personally identifiable information.

Whenever possible, Members and Subscribers may review the personally identifiable information we maintain about them in our records.

If for any reason you want ROVE to stop using your personally identifiable information, ROVE will honor that request; however, ROVE will retain any record of your personally identifiable information that is necessary to comply with applicable federal, state or local law. Keep in mind, moreover, that there will be residual information that will remain within ROVE’s databases, access logs, and other records, which may or may not contain such personally identifiable information.
