  1. INFORMATION WE COLLECT

 

  1. Personally Identifiable Information

Our collection and use of all of the foregoing information is subject to applicable laws and the terms of this Privacy Policy. You are not required to provide personally identifiable information in order to visit D’Luca Properties. You must, however, register and provide personally identifiable information in order to access certain portions or use some or all of the features of certain D’Luca Properties, receive D’Luca communications, and to enter contests and other promotions. D’Luca may use content you provide us through emails, responses to polls, contests or sweepstakes or any other promotional activity. Please be advised that your submissions become the property of D’Luca and may be used by D’Luca for any lawful purpose, subject to applicable law. D’Luca can edit, rewrite, use, and reuse the content of your submissions, including your name, likeness, photograph, and biographical information in any way and in any media whether now known or invented in the future, with or without attribution, including publication in online publications, trade media, and advertising. You agree that any content you send us will not violate any rights of any third-party and that you will only send us content for which you own the rights.

 

  1. Non-Personally Identifiable Information

 

D’Luca also collects other information that is not personally identifiable to you, but results solely from your visit to D’Luca Properties. For example, we may collect Internet Protocol (“IP”) addresses. We may use web beacons and cookies, which may be placed on your computer when you access D’Luca Properties.

 

  1. IP Addresses

 

Your Internet Protocol ("IP") address is usually associated with the place from which you enter the Internet, like your Internet Service Provider, your company or your university. By collecting your IP address, D’Luca's server may record the referring page that linked you to the D’Luca Property (e.g., another website or a search engine), if a website then the pages you visit on this website, the website you visit after this website, the ads you see or click on, other information about the type of web browser, computer, platform, related software and settings you are using, any search terms you have entered on the D’Luca Property or a referral website, and other usage activity and data logged by our web servers. D’Luca may also use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our servers, gather broad demographic and geographic information, and administer our D’Luca Properties. D’Luca may also link this information with your personally identifiable information when D’Luca feels that it is necessary to enforce compliance with its rules and policies, terms of service, or to protect its D’Luca Properties, customers or others.

 

  1. Web Beacons

 

Web beacons are Internet tools, such as transparent images on a website or in e-mails that we may send you, that help us to determine, for instance, the number of visitors to a D’Luca Property, whether a page has been viewed or an e-mail opened, or to collect other related information, and this information may be associated with your unique browser, device identifier, or IP address. For example, when you ask us to send you information on a promotion or newsletter, we may use web beacons to determine how many of the e-mails we sent were actually opened. In general, any electronic image viewed as part of a web page, including a banner ad, can contain a web beacon.

 

  1. Cookies

 

D’Luca may use cookies to track the use of D’Luca Properties and to facilitate and enhance your experience. “Cookies” are bits of electronic information that can be transferred to your computer or other electronic device to uniquely identify your browser.

  1. SECURITY

 

D’Luca limits third party access to personally identifiable information collected on D’Luca Properties to those parties that are engaged to process your information. D’Luca Properties have security measures in place that we believe are reasonable to help protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under D’Luca's control. While D’Luca cannot guarantee that loss, misuse or alteration to data will not occur, D’Luca uses industry standards, such as Secure Socket Layers (“SSL”) technology, to help safeguard against such occurrences. In certain instances, the information passed between your browser or device and the D’Luca system is encrypted with SSL technology to create a protected connection between you and D’Luca Properties to ensure confidentiality. In the event that a breach into the D’Luca security systems occurs and there is a possibility that an unauthorized person acquired your personal information, D’Luca will notify you of the breach under applicable law. No transmission of information via the Internet can be entirely secure, however, so please always use caution when submitting personal information.
