Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy

I compiled this privacy policy so that you can benefit, those of you who might be concerned with how I’m using your precious PII (Personally Identifiable Information) online. 

PII, is info that can be used on its own or with other information to identify, locate, or locate a married person or single person, as described in US privacy law and information security, or to identify a married person or an individual in context.

Please peruse my brilliant privacy policy closely to get a deep understanding of how I harvest, use, preserve, protect, dribble, shuffle, or mess with your PII in any way.

What sort of personal information do we gather from the guests of this glorious website?

When completing the virtual magic show booking form, you will be asked to enter your name, email address, or other details to help you with your experience. Please do not be alarmed. How else are we going to communicate, after all?

When do we gather information?

We gather information when you fill out a form or enter information on our site–because it goes to my email and it’s saved there.  

In what way do we use your precious, personal information?

We may use your personal information we gather from you in the following ways:

      • To customize your experience and to enable us to bring you the sort of content that your heart most desires.

      • To help me service you in my replying to your needs.

      • To pursue you after correspondence (email or phone questions)

How do we protect your information?

Our website is scanned on a regular basis for security holes and known vulnerabilities in order to make your visit to our site as safe as possible.

We use regular Malware Scanning.

Your personal information is contained behind secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number of persons who have special access rights to such systems, and are required to keep the information confidential.

In addition, all sensitive/credit information you supply is encrypted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology.

We implement a variety of security measures when a user enters, submits, or accesses their information to maintain the safety of your personal information.

All transactions are processed through a gateway provider and are not stored or processed on our servers.

Do we use ‘cookies’?

Yes. Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer’s hard drive through your Web browser (if you would permit) that enables the site’s or service provider’s systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information.

For instance, we use cookies to help us remember and process the items in your shopping cart. They are also used to help us understand your preferences based on previous or current site activity, which enables us to provide you with improved services.

We also use cookies to help us compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future.

We use cookies to:

      • Save, and understand, users’ preferences in case of future patronage.

      • Note and track advertisements.

      • Compile overall data about site traffic and site conversations in order to offer better site tools and experience in the future. We may also use trustworthy third-party services that track this information for us.

You can decide to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you may decide to turn off all cookies. You do this through your browser settings. If you need help turning off cookies, google it. What do I look like, your secretary?

If you turn cookies off, some neat dudads and features will be turned off.

Despite this, you will still be able to place orders (except on this site, since there is nothing to order).

Third-party disclosure

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your Personally Identifiable Information unless we provide users with advance notice.

This does not include website hosting partners and other parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or serving our users, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential.

We may also release information when it’s release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others’ rights, property or safety.

However, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.

Third-party links

We do not include or offer third-party products or services on our website.

Google

Google’s advertising requirements can be summed up by Google’s Advertising Principles. They are put in place to provide a positive experience for users. https://support.google.com/adwordspolicy/answer/1316548?hl=en

We use Google Adwords Advertising on our website.

Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on our site. Google’s use of the DART cookie enables it to serve ads to our users based on previous visits to our site and other sites on the Internet. Users may opt-out of the use of the DART cookie by visiting the Google Ad and Content Network privacy policy.

We have implemented the following:

      • Remarketing with Google AdSense

      • Google Display Network Impression Reporting

      • Demographics and Interests Reporting

      • DoubleClick Platform Integration

I love cookies. I like raisin oatmeal and chocolate chip the best. I, along with third-party vendors such as Google, use first-party cookies and third-party cookies or other third-party things to compile data regarding user interactions with ad impressions and other ad service functions as they relate to our website.

Opting out:

You can set preferences for how Google advertises to you using the Google Ad Settings page. Additionally, you can opt out by popping over to the Network Advertising Initiative Opt Out site or by using the Google Analytics Opt Out Browser add on. Now you know.

How does our site handle Do Not Track signals?

When and where there is a DNT (Do Not Track) thing in place, we honor those signals and we Do Not Track, we do not plant cookies, and we do not use advertising in such cases.

Our site permits third-party behavioral tracking. Deal with it.

It’s also important to note that we allow third-party behavioral tracking

COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)

The COPPA (Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act) puts parents in the driver’s seat when it comes to the collection of personal information from children under the age of 13 years old.

The Federal Trade Commission enforces the COPPA Rule that delineates what website operators must do online to preserve children’s privacy and safety.

I never have and never will market to children under the age of 13 years old, specifically.

Fair Information Practices

What is the keystone of privacy law in the USA?  Why, it’s the The Fair Information Practices Principles! Furthermore, the concepts they comprise have been valuable in the growth of data protection laws in the entire solar system as we know it.

Studying the Fair Information Practice Principles and the implementation thereof is crucial to make sure everything is ship shape with the multitudinous privacy laws that guard personal information.

We will take the following responsive action, in order to be in line with Fair Information Practices, if a data breach occur:

We will let you know via email

      • Within one week (actually 7 business days)

We will let the user know via in-site notification

      • Within one week (actually 7 business days)

Additionally, I concur to the Individual Redress Principle. That’s the one that demands people have the right to legally guard enforceable rights against data collectors and processors who knowingly or unknowingly break the law.

This rule demands not only that persons have enforceable rights against data users, but also that individuals can go to the courts, buildings, or government agencies to look into or prosecute violations by data processors.

CAN SPAM Act

The CAN-SPAM Act is a decree that lays down the rules for commercial email, makes demands for commercial messages, conveys recipients the right to have emails halted in their tracks from being sent to them, and delineates severe discipline for bad boys who disobey.

We occasionally collect your email address in order to:

      • Respond to questions, send information, and other complaints, praises, requests, comments or questions

      • Market to our humble mailing list or proceed to send annoying emails to our clients after the first transaction has been revealed.

To be in complaint with CANSPAM, we subscribe to the following:

      • I do not use false or misleading subjects or email addresses.

      • I identify the message as an advertisement in some obvious way.

      • I include the physical address of our business or site headquarters.

      • I monitor third-party email marketing services for compliance, if one is used (I don’t use this).

      • I honor opt-out/unsubscribe appeals promptly.

      • Permit users to unsubscribe by clicking the link at the lower part of each email.

Not that Jon Finch would stoop to sending mass emails, but if you would, at any time or place, prefer to unsubscribe from my sending you emails in the future, you can email me at any of the below emails:

And I’ll promptly remove you from all correspondence.
