This statement discloses the privacy policy for www.kingstonobserver.com, the official Web Site of the Kingston Observer Newspaper.
The Kingston Observer Newspaper and kingstonobserver.com (TKO) are committed to protecting your privacy and to developing technology that gives you the most powerful and secure online experience. In general, you can view this site and all the latest news and commentary without telling us who you are or revealing any information about yourself. Sometimes however, TKO needs information to track the useability and behaviour of our systems.
Also certain functions such as our online classifieds will require information from you in order to work, such as your name, email and address. It is our intent to let you know before we collect personal information from you on the Internet.
We use personal information for four primary purposes:
- To make the site easier for you to use by not making you enter your personal information more than once.
- To help you quickly find what your looking for.
- To help us create and deliver content most relevant to you.
- To alert you to new services, special offers, and other info.
If you choose to give us personal information to process an order or provide you with a subscription to a free service then this will be held by TKO -- we do not SPAM or share this information with other third parties.
We do keep track of the domains from which users visit us. We analyse this data for:
- trends and statistics and evaluate the efficiency of our web site and our internet infrastructure
- to ensure that services offered (such as but limited to chat and forums) are not abused
We then discard such information.
Business relationships
The Kingston Observer web site contains links to other Web sites. TKO is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such Web Sites.
Cookies
Other information may be sent to your computer in the form of an Internet "cookie" to allow TKO servers to monitor your requirements. The cookie is stored on your computer. The TKO server may request that your computer return a cookie to it. These return cookies do not contain any information supplied by you or any personally identifiable information about you.
Such measures are necessary to allow TKO to measure the useabilty of the systems, which will help in our continuing development to ensure that we understand the requirements of our users.
