- What Personal Information About Customers Does eNom Gather?
Information You Give Us:
We receive and store any information you enter on our Web site
or give us in any other way. We use the information that you provide
for such purposes as responding to your requests, providing our
services (e.g., domain name registration, DNS hosting), and communicating
with you.
Automatic Information: We receive and store certain types of information
whenever you interact with us. For example, like many Web sites,
we use "cookies," and we obtain certain types of information
when your Web browser accesses our sites. Examples of the information
we collect and analyze include the Internet protocol (IP) address
used to connect your computer to the Internet; computer and connection
information such as browser type and version, operating system,
and platform; the full Uniform Resource Locators (URL) click stream
to, through, and from our Web site, including date and time. We
use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track
user's movement, and gather broad demographic information for
aggregate use.
- What About Cookies?
Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that we transfer to your
computer's hard drive through your Web browser to enable our systems
to recognize your browser. Besides using the information as described
above, eNom utilizes cookies to control the flow of the ordering
processes by maintaining the state of your online transactions.
Some of our business partners may use cookies on our site (for
example, advertisers). However, we have no access to or control
over these cookies.
- Does eNom Share the Information It Receives?
Yes, we do share information but only as described below. Otherwise
we will not provide your personal information without your consent.
WHOIS: We are required by the Internet Corporation for Assigned
Names and Numbers ("ICANN"), the organization that assumes
responsibility for domain name allocation, to collect information
about you during the domain name registration process. This information
includes your full name, mailing address, phone number, email
address, and, where provided, your facsimile number. ICANN then
requires all registrars to make your full name, mailing address,
phone number, email address, and, where provided, your facsimile
number, as well as the creation and expiration dates of your domain
name registration and the name server information associated with
your domain name, to the public via an interactive Web page and
a "port 43" WHOIS service. For the purposes of this
Privacy Notice we will refer to this information as your "WHOIS
Information." Please note that we may not be able to control
how members of the public may use the WHOIS Information.
Advertisers: We will share aggregated demographic information
with our partners and advertisers. This is not linked to any personal
information that can identify any individual person.
Partners: We partner with other parties to provide specific services.
When the user signs up for these services, we will share names,
or other contact information that is necessary for the third party
to provide these services.
Agents: We engage other companies and individuals to perform functions
on our behalf. Examples include processing credit card payments,
providing marketing assistance, providing customer services, sending
postal mail and email to you, removing repetitive information
from customer lists, and analyzing data. These persons have access
to personal information needed to perform their functions. These
companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable
information that you provide to eNom for any secondary purposes.
Service Providers: We engage other companies and individuals to
perform enhanced services on our behalf. For example, we have
engaged Critical Path, Inc. to provide free electronic mail services
to our domain name registrants. In addition, certain of our enhanced
services such as our Web Site Generator require that we contact
Internet directories and various search engines on your behalf.
Many of our service providers have access to personal information
needed to perform their services. These parties are not allowed
to use personally identifiable information except for the purpose
of providing these services.
Business Transfer: As we continue to develop our business, we
might sell or buy businesses or their assets. In such transactions,
customer information generally is one of the transferred business
assets. Also, if eNom, Inc. or all or substantially all of its
assets were ever to be acquired, customer information will of
course be one of the transferred assets.
Compliance: We release account and other personal information
when we believe release is appropriate to comply with law; enforce
or apply our Services Agreement and other agreements; or protect
the rights, property, or safety of eNom, our users, or others.
This includes exchanging information with other companies and
organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
- How Secure Is Information About Me?
We work to protect the security of your information during transmission
by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information
you input and the information we may send to our agents.
eNom has gone to great lengths to ensure your information is securely
obtained and held in compliance with the Card Holder Information
Security Program. For example, we encrypt your credit card number
before it is stored in our database. This ensures that no one
may access your credit card from our system.
It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access
to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when
finished using a shared computer.
- What Information Can I Access?
eNom gives you access to certain information about you for the
limited purpose of viewing and, in certain cases, updating that
information. To view or change this information, log-in to your
account. When you update information, we usually keep a copy of
the prior version for our records.
- Links
Sites provided by eNom contain links to other sites. Please be
aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of
such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they
leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and
every web site that collects personally identifiable information.
This privacy statement applies solely to information collected
by this Web site.
- Children
eNom does not sell services for purchase by children. If you are
under 18, you may use our services only with involvement of a
parent or guardian.
- Conditions of Use, Notices, and Revisions
If you choose to visit eNom, your visit and any dispute over privacy
is subject to this Notice and our Terms and Conditions, including
limitations on damages, arbitration of disputes, and application
of the law of the state of Washington. If you have any concern
about privacy at eNom, please send us a thorough description to
info@enom.com, and we will try to resolve it. Our business changes
constantly. This Notice and the Terms and Conditions will change
also, and use of information that we gather now is subject to
the Privacy Notice in effect at the time of use. We may e-mail
periodic reminders of our notices and conditions, unless you have
instructed us not to, but you should check our Web site frequently
to see recent changes.
