Information Collection and Use
Home Debut, Inc. is the sole owner of the information collected on this site. We
will not sell, share, or rent this information to others in ways different from
what is disclosed in this statement. Home Debut, Inc. collects information from
our users at several different points on our website.
Registration
In order to use tourfactory.com a user must first complete the registration form.
During registration a user is required to give their contact information (such as name
and email address). This information is used to contact the user about the services
on our site for which they have expressed interest. It is optional for the user to
provide demographic information (such as income level and gender), and unique identifiers
(such as social security number), but encouraged so we can provide a more personalized
experience on our site.
Order
We request information from the user on our order form. Here a user must provide contact
information (like name and shipping address) and financial information (like credit card
number, expiration date). This information is used for billing purposes and to fill
customer's orders. If we have trouble processing an order, this contact information is
used to get in touch with the user.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's hard drive containing information about
the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information
while on our site. Once the user closes their browser, the cookie simply terminates. For
instance, by setting a cookie on our site, the user would not have to log in a password more
than once, thereby saving time while on our site. If a user rejects the cookie, they may
still use our site. The only drawback to this is that the user will be limited in some areas
of our site on tourfactory. Cookies can also enable us to track and target the interests of
our users to enhance the experience on our site.
Log Files
We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's movement, and gather
broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally
identifiable information.
Sharing
We will share aggregated demographic information with our partners. This is not linked to any
personal information that can identify any individual person.
We use an outside shipping company to ship orders, and a credit card processing company to bill
users for goods and services. These companies do not retain, share, store or use personally
identifiable information for any secondary purposes.
We partner with another party to provide specific services. When the user signs up for these
services, we will share names, or other contact information that is necessary for the third
party to provide these services.
These parties are not allowed to use personally identifiable information except for the purpose
of providing these services.
Links
This web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we Home Debut, Inc. are not
responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites.
We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements
of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy
statement applies solely to information collected by this Web site.
News Updates and Special Promotions
If a user wishes to subscribe to our newsletter and Special Promotions, we ask for contact
information such as name and email address.
Surveys & Contests
From time-to-time our site requests information from users via surveys or contests. Participation
in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether
or not to disclose this information. Information requested may include contact information (such
as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code, age level). Contact
information will be used to notify the winners and award prizes. Survey information will be used
for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site.
Tell-A-Friend
If a user elects to use our referral service for informing a friend about our site, we ask them for
the friend's name and email address. Home Debut, Inc. will automatically send the friend a one-time
email inviting them to visit the site. Home Debut, Inc. stores this information for the sole purpose
of sending this one-time email. The friend may contact Home Debut, Inc. at
www.homedebut.com or
www.tourfactory.com to request
the removal of this information from their database.
Security
This website takes every precaution to protect our users' information. When users submit sensitive
information via the website, your information is protected both online and off-line.
When our registration/order form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as credit card
number and/or social security number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the best
encryption software in the industry - SSL. While on a secure page, such as our order form, the lock
icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes
locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when you are just 'surfing'.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our
power to protect user-information off-line. All of our users' information, not just the sensitive
information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to
perform a specific job (for example, our accounting personal or a customer service representative) are
granted access to personally identifiable information. Our employees must use password-protected
screen-savers when they leave their desk. When they return, they must re-enter their password to
re-gain access to your information. Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security
and privacy practices. Every quarter, as well as any time new policies are added, our employees are
notified and/or reminded about the importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure our
customers' information is protected. Finally, the servers that we store personally identifiable
information on are kept in a secure environment, behind a locked cage.
If you have any questions about the security at our website, you can send an email to
webmaster@homedebut.com.
Special Offers
We send all new members a welcoming email to verify password and username. Established members will
occasionally receive information on products, services, special deals, and a newsletter.
Out of respect for the privacy of our users we present the option to not receive these types of
communications. Please see our choice and opt-out below.
Site and Service Updates
We also send the user site and service announcement updates. Members are not able to un-subscribe
from service announcements, which contain important information about the service. We communicate
with the user to provide requested services and in regards to issues relating to their account via
email or phone.
Correction/Updating Personal Information:
If a user's personally identifiable information changes (such as your zip code), or if a user no
longer desires our service, we will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update or remove that
user's personal data provided to us. This can usually be done within your personal account or by
contacting Cathy Gay, Director of Customer Services. by
cathy@homedebut.com,
1.888.458.3943 505 W Riverside Ave Ste 300, Spokane WA 99201.
Choice/Opt-out
Users who no longer wish to receive our newsletter or promotional materials from our partners may
opt-out of receiving these communications by the email at
support@homedebut.com.
Users of our site are notified when their information is being collected by any outside parties.
We do this so our users can make an informed choice as to whether they should proceed with services
that require an outside party, or not.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on our Homepage so our users
are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under circumstances, if any,
we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner
different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users by way of an email.
Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner.
We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was
collected.
