Vegas Media Group understand the privacy concerns of visitors to our website. We have created this privacy statement to explain what information we collect from your visit to RateVegas.com, how that information is used,
and the choices you have regarding the collection and use of such information.
Use of Certain Information
As a general practice, we do not automatically collect personally identifiable information (such as your
name, mailing address or e-mail address) from your visit to our site. We only gather personal information
from visitors to our site if that information is voluntarily submitted. However, certain non-personal
information (such as the type of browser and operating system being used, and your IP address), is recorded
by our servers when you visit our site. This information is collected so we can provide you with a
more personalized interactive experience on our site.
Depending on the activities on RateVegas.com in which you choose to participate, we may request that
you provide us with certain information about yourself in order to participate in those activities. Our
registration forms and surveys may request that you give us contact information (such as your name,
mailing address and e-mail address), demographic information (such as your age and gender) and profile
data (such as your preferences in entertainment). This information may be used by us and may be shared with
our affiliates, subsidiaries and promotional partners for marketing and promotional purposes. On occasion,
we may use your contact information to send you information about our products and services, and about
us and what we're doing. We will not sell or lease your personally identifiable information to third
parties, and will not use your personally identifiable information in any way other than as provided in this
privacy statement.
If you request information, products or services through our site, we may use order forms to collect
contact information (such as your name, mailing address and e-mail address) and, when appropriate,
financial information (such as your credit card number), to process your request. Contact information
from an order form may be used to get in touch with you when necessary regarding your order. Any financial
information collected to process your request will not be shared with third parties who are not involved with
the transaction.
We will disclose information gathered from RateVegas.com when required by law or upon the
request of a law enforcement agency. We may also disclose user information in cases when we have reason
to believe that disclosing such information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action
against someone who may be causing injury to or interference (either intentionally or unintentionally)
with our rights or property, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities.
