PRIVACY
POLICY
PLEASE CAREFULLY READ BOTH THIS PRIVACY
POLICY AND THE AGREEMENT ON TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF USE BEFORE
USING THIS WEBSITE.
We are Kiel Center Partners, L.P., doing
business as Scottrade Center (the “Arena”) and
are the operator of the web sites located at the uniform resource
locators (“URLs”) www.scottradecenter.com and
www.scottradecenter.net (the “Sites”). This Privacy
Policy (the “Privacy Policy”) covers the Arena’s
treatment of personally identifiable information and non-personally
identifiable information that the Arena collects when you
are on any of our Sites and when you use the Site Features
(as defined in the Agreement on Terms and Conditions of Use).
This policy does not apply to the practices of companies that
the Arena does not own or control, or to people that the Arena
does not employ or manage.
By accessing or using any of our Sites,
you are and shall be bound by, and you agree to the collection
and use of your personally identifiable information as set
forth in, this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any
part of our Privacy Policy – including the collection
and use of your personally identifiable information as described
below – do not access or use our Sites.
The Information We Collect
On our Sites, you can enter contests and
participate in other promotional events, vote in polls or
otherwise express an opinion, subscribe to one of our services
(including our online newsletters and email lists), or participate
in our online forums. The types of personally identifiable
information that may be collected on these pages include your
email address and information about your interests in and
use of various products, programs and services. In addition,
registration is required and information is collected in certain
areas of our Sites in which users provide content submissions
and suggestions or participate in interactive online activities.
We also may collect certain non-personally
identifiable information when you visit our Sites, such as
the type of browser you are using, the type of operating system
you are using and the domain name of your Internet service
provider. Generally, “non-personally identifiable information”
may be collected through “traffic data” and may
entail the use of “Cookies”, “IP addresses”
or other numeric codes used to identify a computer or monitor
how a user accesses a website.
How We Use the Information
We may use the information you provide about
yourself to fulfill your requests for our products, programs,
and services, to respond to your inquiries about our offerings,
and to offer you other products, programs or services that
we believe may be of interest to you.
We may also use this information to communicate
with you, such as to inform you about upcoming events or recent
news, to notify you when you have won one of our contests,
to fulfill a request by you for an online newsletter, or to
contact you about your account with us.
We may use the non-personally identifiable
information that we collect to improve the design and content
of our Sites and to enable us to personalize your Internet
experience. We also may use this information in the aggregate
to analyze site usage, as well as to offer you products, programs,
or services.
The Arena collects IP addresses for the
purposes of system administration and to report aggregate
information (e.g., how many visitors visit our Sites) to our
advertisers. Web servers automatically identify your computer
by its IP address (an IP address is a number that’s automatically
assigned to your computer whenever you’re surfing the Web).
When users request pages from our Sites, our servers log the
usersâ IP addresses. We do not link IP addresses to
anything personally identifiable. As a result, a userâs
session will be logged, but the user remains anonymous to
us.
We may disclose personally identifiable
information of any user: (i) if such information is subpoenaed
or the Arena, in its sole discretion, believes that disclosure
is otherwise required to comply with a court order or legal
process, (ii) if the Arena, in its sole discretion, believes
that such user is violating our Agreement on Terms and Conditions
of Use or is using any of our Sites to commit unlawful acts
or acts that endanger the general public or that disclosure
is permitted or required by law to protect the security of
our Sites or to otherwise protect our rights or to take precautions
against liability, (iii) if the Arena elects to work (and,
by necessity, share information) with third party providers
of internet support-services in order to assist the Arena
in collecting information on our Sites or in order to provide
other services or goods relating to our Sites, or (iv) in
association with any transfer of our business or assets.
Users should be aware that, when they voluntarily
disclose personally identifiable information on the bulletin
boards or in the chat areas of our Sites, that information,
along with any substantive information disclosed in the userâs
communication, can be collected and used by third parties.
The Arena has no control over any such use of any information
by third parties.
Use of Cookies
Cookies are pieces of information that a
website transfers to an individualâs hard drive for
record keeping purposes. The use of cookies is standard on
the internet and many major websites use them. Our Sites use
cookies to show us how often users access certain portion
of our Sites. The Arena does not use cookies to retrieve information
from your computer that was not originally sent in a cookie.
Except as described below, the Arena does not use information
transferred through cookies for any promotional or marketing
purposes, nor does it share such information with any third
parties whatsoever.
We do not control any cookies of any advertiser
sites or linked sites, and our Privacy Policy does not apply
to them. If you have questions concerning the use by any advertiser
site or linked site of cookies or about any other issues relating
to that siteâs collection, use and distribution of personally
identifiable information, then you should review any privacy
policy and any other terms and conditions maintained by that
site. You may also direct any questions or concerns to the
advertiser siteâs or linked siteâs website administrator
or as otherwise directed by such site.
Most browsers are initially set to accept
cookies. If you’d prefer, you can set yours to refuse cookies
or to alert you when cookies are being sent. However, some
parts of our Sites may not function properly if you do so.
Childrenâs Privacy Policy
As part of the registration process, you
will be asked to provide your date of birth, and you are required
to provide your actual date of birth. The Arena does not accept
information from children under the age of 13. When a child
under the age of 13 attempts to submit his or her registration
information, our Sites will reject the submission.
Policies for Individuals 13 Years
of Age or Older
By submitting information, individuals 13
years of age or older agree that such information may be used
for marketing and promotional purposes by the Arena. Generally,
the Arena will not share such information with third parties
unless otherwise disclosed during collection. If a user objects
to such use for any reason, such user may stop that use –
either by modifying such userâs registration information,
by canceling a registration and then re-registering, or as
otherwise directed by our Sites.
Security
We have put in place appropriate electronic
and other procedures to safeguard and help prevent unauthorized
access, maintain data security, and correctly use the information
we collect on our Sites.
Although we take appropriate measures to safeguard against
the unauthorized disclosure or use of information we collect
on our Sites, we cannot assure you that personally identifiable
information that we collect will never be disclosed in a manner
that is inconsistent with our Privacy Policy.
Opting Out
After gathering any user information, the
Arena offers users the opportunity to remove their information
from our active database in order to stop receiving future
communications from us via our Sites.
Miscellaneous
The Arena reserves the right to change this
Privacy Policy at any time by posting any such change on our
Sites. The terms and provisions of the Agreement on Terms
and Conditions of Use are hereby incorporated in this Privacy
Policy by reference. This Privacy Policy, and all claims or
issues regarding any of our Sites, shall be governed according
to the laws of the State of Missouri, without giving effect
to any principles of conflicts of law. Except as otherwise
required by law, any legal action concerning this Privacy
Policy or any of our Sites must be brought within one (1)
year after the claim or cause of action arises and must be
brought in the State of Missouri. You hereby waive any argument
that any such court does not have jurisdiction over you or
such dispute or that venue in any such court is not appropriate
or convenient. If any part of this Privacy Policy is deemed
invalid or unenforceable according to applicable law, the
remainder of this Privacy Policy shall continue in effect.
Our failure to insist upon strict enforcement of any provision
of this Privacy Policy shall not be construed as a waiver
of any provision or right.
