PRIVACY POLICY
Welcome to www.richmondtennis.org. This site (the “Site”) is owned
by the Richmond Tennis Association (the "RTA"). This Privacy
Policy is designed to tell you about our practices regarding collection,
use and disclosure of information that we may collect from and about
you. Please be sure to read this entire Privacy Policy before using or
submitting information to this Site. This Site is intended for use by

About Children
The Site is a general audience site. We do not knowingly collect
any personal information from children under the age of thirteen on the
Site. If in the future, we collect personally identifiable
information from children, we will do so in compliance with the
Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (15 U.S.C. 6501 et
seq.). The Internet offers children wonderful educational and
entertainment resources. Your guidance and involvement are
essential to help ensure that children have a safe and rewarding online
experience. We encourage you to visit the Direct Marketing
Association’s Web site (www.the-dma.org)
and explore the Get CyberSavvy! Program as well as the GetNetWise Web
site (www.getnetwise.org) to
learn more about parental control tools.
Active Information Collection
Like many Web sites, this Site actively collects information from its
visitors both by asking them specific questions and by permitting them
to communicate directly with us via e-mail, feedback forms, and so
forth. Some of the information that you submit may be personally
identifiable information (that is, information that can be uniquely
identified with you, such as your full name, address, e-mail address,
phone number and so on).
Some areas of this Site may require you to submit information in order
for you to benefit from the specified features (such as newsletter
subscriptions, tips/pointers, order processing and so forth) or to
participate in a particular activity (such as sweepstakes or other
promotions and so forth). You will be informed at each information
collection point what information is required and what information is
optional.
Passive Information Collection
As you navigate through this Site and/or receive emails in connection
with this Site, certain information may be passively collected (that is,
gathered without your actively providing the information) using various
technologies and means, including, without limitation, those described
below:
Cookies
As with many Websites, the Site uses standard technology called
“cookies,” which are small data files that are transferred to your
computer when you allow your browser to accept cookies. Cookies
automatically identify your Web browser to the Site whenever you visit

passwords, purchases, and preferences. By tracking how and when
you use the Site, cookies help us determine which areas are popular and
which are not. Many improvements and updates to the Site are based on
data obtained from cookies.
Accepting cookies allows you, among other things, to personalize your
experience on the Site. Cookies may also allow the Site to present
to you advertising which may be of interest to you. If you do not want
information collected through the use of cookies, you generally can opt
out of providing this information by turning the cookies off in your

personalized experience if you have disabled the use of cookies.
IP Addresses and Automatic Information
We may collect IP addresses and/or automatic information for purposes of
system administration and to report aggregate information to our

automatically assigned to your computer whenever you access the
Internet. Our computers identify your computer by its IP address.
When you request Web pages from the Site, our computers log your IP

Automatic information is information collected by our computers when you

such information as the page served, the time, the source of the
request, the type of browser making the request, the preceding page view
and other such information. When analyzed, this data helps us
analyze how visitors arrive at the Site, what type of content is most
popular, what type of visitors in the aggregate are interested in
particular kinds of content and advertising, and the like.
Information From Other Sources
From time to time we, and/or our operational partners may receive
information about you from other sources and add it to the data

If you provide personally identifiable information to this Site, we may

unless specified otherwise at the point of collection on this Site. We
may combine personally identifiable information with passively collected

Third-Party Ad Serving & Audience and Traffic Measurement
Services
The Site may use a third party network advertisers to serve the

serving enables us to target advertisements to you for products or Web

advertisers, sponsors, and/or traffic measurement services may
themselves set and access their own cookies on your computer if you
choose to have your cookies enabled in your browser. Cookies allow third
party advertisers to show you advertisements or content you might be
interested in. Other companies' use of their cookies is subject to their
own privacy policies, not this one.
