What information does ModaCAD gather?

ModaCAD gathers and tracks the following types of information about users:

Voluntary Registration and User Surveys. By registering as a user of the Fashion»Trip product and providing the information requested in the registration form, users gain access to special areas and receive special promotional notices, product announcements, and contests and sweepstakes notices and they can take advantage of personalization (the ability to select content on the Fashion»Trip web site according to a user-supplied profile) and password to provide privacy if that information is supplied as part of the registration. Users may be given the opportunity to provide additional information about themselves or their preferences when registering for contests and sweepstakes, or responding to surveys. For general access and use of the Fashion»Trip product, only your name and an email address or other unique identifier is required. In order to access and use some portions of the Fashion»Trip product, however, users must supply information regarding age, body shape, and color type. ModaCAD will only use such information in accordance with ModaCAD's privacy policy described below.

Usage tracking. ModaCAD may track user traffic patterns through Fashion»Trip to ModaCAD's or other linked web-sites. However, ModaCAD will not correlate this information with data about individual users for use by anyone other than ModaCAD. ModaCAD may organize and/or catalog overall Fashion»Trip usage statistics according to a user's domain name, browser type, and MIME type by reading this information from the user's browser string (information contained in every user's browser) if a user connects to a web-site from www.fashiontrip.com. ModaCAD may also track and catalog the search terms that users enter in a "search" conducted at ModaCAD's web-site. ModaCAD does not, however, provide to others such usage statistics and search-term tracking associated with individual users.

Use of the information. ModaCAD and ModaCAD's Fashion»Trip partners and advertisers use any information voluntarily given by Fashion»Trip users to enhance users' experience in using Fashion»Trip, whether to provide interactive or personalized elements at www.fashiontrip.com, to better prepare future content based on the interests of our users, or to facilitate users receiving valuable and relevant services and products information from ModaCAD's partners and advertisers. For example, ModaCAD may use the email address supplied by a user when accessing or registering the product in order to send out electronic newsletters and to enable users to participate in polls and message boards. ModaCAD may send out newsletters to Fashion»Trip registrants and, if a user enrolls in the Fashion»Trip "push" program, ModaCAD will send to such user at varying intervals product information and other data that ModaCAD and ModaCAD's Fashion»Trip partners and advertisers believe may be of interest to the user.

Because ModaCAD is committed to providing you the most up-to-date fashions and fashion news, ModaCAD will create aggregate reports on user demographics and traffic patterns for use by ModaCAD and Fashion»Trip advertisers and partners. Doing so helps Fashion»Trip's partners and advertisers to understand better Fashion»Trip users' demographics, to create personalized content, services and advertising at www.fashiontrip.com, and to modify Fashion»Trip and its content to make it more interesting and useful to users. In sum, such information sharing assists ModaCAD in keeping Fashion»Trip interesting, current and fun to use.

Important Notice about Linked Web-Sites.

ModaCAD's privacy policy does not apply to the web-sites of Fashion»Trip advertisers and partners. ModaCAD provides Internet links to other web sites as a convenience to users of www.fashiontrip.com and as a means of enhancement of the www.fashiontrip.com experience. The inclusion of a link does not imply any endorsement by ModaCAD of the linked site or the products or services offered at such linked site, and any communication by the user of www.fashiontrip.com with any linked site is at the user's risk. ModaCAD is not affiliated with, and does not control, the Fashion»Trip advertisers and partners and thus cannot direct their practices. Fashion»Trip users should be aware that if a user of Fashion»Trip "clicks" on a banner advertisement or a search result displayed while using Fashion»Trip, the "click" causes the user to be connected to a web site not controlled by ModaCAD. Information supplied by the user while using Fashion»Trip, however, is not tranferred to the new web site by such a click-through connection. Some of the vendors of products appearing in Fashion»Trip, or merchandise vendors having links from Fashion»Trip's web-site, may sell, distribute or otherwise use customer information. ModaCAD has no control over such third-parties' uses of customer information, and ModaCAD warns users of Fashion»Trip to investigate the customer data policies of each such vendor before providing any information to those vendors or ordering any products from them. When a Fashion»Trip user links to, or in any other way visits the web site of any Fashion»Trip partner or advertiser, the user should direct any questions or comments about their respective practices or the content of their web sites to them directly. Fashion»Trip users should be aware that Fashion»Trip partners and advertisers have different privacy and data protection policies, which may be much less protective of user's privacy than are ModaCAD's policies. ModaCAD urges all users of Fashion»Trip to investigate the privacy policies of each Fashion»Trip advertiser or partner. Your linking to any other off-site pages or other web sites is at your own risk.
