Your privacy is important, so we’d like to explain what information we collect when you visit CAUPONIUM (http://www.CAUPONIUM.com, and all *.CAUPONIUM.com IRC or other communication servers), why we collect it and how it is used. We’d also like to explain your options to access and control your information, our data security practices, and other matters.

Special Note about Children

CAUPONIUM is not intended for children, especially kids under 16. Children may use CAUPONIUM only with the direct supervision of their parent.

We do not seek to collect personal information about children under 16 years of age through CAUPONIUM. If we discover such information, we will delete it. Thus, we typically retain no information about children. However, if a parent requests a review of information we may have on their child and in the unlikely event we still retain such information and haven’t deleted it, then we will honor that request. In order to request a review or deletion of personal information that CAUPONIUM may have collected about your child, please Email Support@pcerc.net.

When you communicate with CAUPONIUM, we make every effort to ensure your privacy and safety. As an added precaution, however, we still encourage parents to monitor their child’s use of the Internet and to help us protect their privacy by reminding them never to exchange personal information with this or any other website without the assistance or express written permission of a parent or other responsible adult.

How Do We Protect Information We Collect?

We offer secure web pages to collect certain kinds of user information and we store certain kinds of data in encrypted form.

We generally keep user data on our server or in our archives for as long as we reasonably need it. We may alter this practice according to changing requirements.

In addition, information posted in a public forum could stay in the public domain indefinitely.

Data management requests are administered in an orderly manner to the extent feasible and within our direct control. Note: we have greater control over recently collected data than for archived data. Once data is removed from the system and archived, it may not be feasible to accommodate specific requests. In those cases, our general data retention policy applies.
