Bienville House respects the privacy of every individual who visits our website. This Privacy Policy outlines the information we may collect and how we may use that information.

PERSONAL DATA

Bienville House will not collect any personally-identifiable information about you (e.g., your name, address, telephone number or email address) through our websites unless you have provided it to us voluntarily. If you do not want your personal data collected, please do not submit it to us. When you do provide us with personal data, we may use that information in the following ways, unless stated otherwise: we may store and process that information to better understand your needs and how we can improve our products and services; we (or a fulfillment house or other third party on our behalf in connection with a promotion) may use that information to contact you; we may provide other third parties with aggregate – but not individual – information about visitors to or users of our sites. We do not now and do not intend to sell, rent or market personal data about you to third parties.

SPECIAL NOTE FOR PARENTS

Parents should be aware that Bienville House’s Privacy Policy will govern our use of personal data, but that information which is voluntarily given by children — or others — in chat sessions, email exchanges, bulletin boards or the like may be used by other parties to generate unsolicited mail. Bienville House encourages all parents to instruct their children in the safe and responsible use of their personal data while using the Internet.

The site you are visiting is one of Bienville House general audience sites. From time to time a specific site will be governed by a specific privacy policy rather than the general audience privacy policy and will have specific provisions regarding children and privacy.

CHILDREN

Bienville House has no intention of collecting any personal data from individuals under thirteen years of age. Where appropriate, Bienville House will specifically instruct children not to submit such information on our website and/or will take reasonable steps to ensure parental consent to such submission. Parents should be aware that Bienville House’s Privacy Policy will govern our use of personal data, but that information which is voluntarily given by children — or others — in chat sessions, email exchanges, bulletin boards or the like may be used by other parties to generate unsolicited mail. Bienville House encourages all parents to instruct their children in the safe and responsible use of their personal data while using the Internet.
