SiteBuilder Now asks potential or actual customers to provide certain company information or, in the case of individuals, personal information when they inquire about or apply for service or establish an account with SiteBuilder Now. This information may include Customer's name; business name, if any; address, and phone number, as well as specific payment information, including credit card number. We use this information to validate Customer's identity and manage Customer's account, including billing for our services.

We use this information to allocate service resources, diagnose service problems and ensure compliance with our Acceptable Use Policy. To better serve our Customers, we also record Customer requests for information regarding our products and services, as well as any responses Customers provide to us. We also maintain records of each Customer's payment history and communications with customer care and other service support employees. We may use this information to contact you concerning your account and to inform you about the type of services and products available. When we receive an e-mail inquiry, we use the return e-mail address to answer the inquiry.
 
Data Security
We want our Customers to use our services and access internet resources with confidence. Accordingly, we protect the confidentiality of each Customer's account information and personal communications consistent with this Privacy Policy, the law, and the legitimate interests of SiteBuilder Now, its employees and our other Customers. To this end, SiteBuilder Now has implemented the following procedures:
 
Internally, we review security and auditing trails on a regular basis to watch for intrusion.
 
We maker our employees aware of the security and privacy practices through new hire training, preiodic training for customer service, technical, and other departments as needed. Our Information Technology Department has an outgoing employee plan that will immediately close access.
 
We restrict access to sensitive data that is collected through our services to those that are needed to provide the services. Authorized personnel are authenticated with username and password.
 
Once information reaches our site, the information is protected by a firewall and strict system security.
 
Although we strive to ensure the integrity and security of our network and systems, we cannot guarantee that our security measures will prevent "hackers" or other unauthorized persons from illegally obtaining this information.
 
Protection of Children

We do not knowingly collect, use or disseminate any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13. If, however, we become aware that personally identifiable information regarding a child under the age of 13 has been collected at the Web site, we will use such information for the sole purpose of contacting a parent or guardian of the child to obtain verifiable parental consent. If we cannot obtain consent after a reasonable period of time, or if when contacted a parent or guardian requests that we do not use or maintain such information, we will delete it from our records. Upon request by a parent or guardian, we will provide a description of the specific types of personal information collected from a child who is under the age of 13.
