Privacy

Effective and last revised on March 8, 2007

The privacy of the users of the Mesa del Sol Web site is important to Forest City Covington NM, LLC. Please read the following privacy policy to learn more about our information gathering and dissemination practices for this web site, www.mesadelsolnm.com (the “Site”).

This policy covers how we treat personal information collected and received through the Site. Personal information includes information about you that is personally identifiable like your name, address, email address, or phone number, and that is not otherwise publicly available. This policy does not apply to the practices of companies that we do not own or control, or to people that we do not employ or manage.

It is not necessary to register or create any account with us in order to use all of the features and services available through this Site. However, if you wish to receive our newsletters or otherwise be added to any mailing lists, you must complete a registration form. On this form, we ask you to provide certain personally identifiable information about yourself, such as your name, address, and email address, as well as certain demographic information about you and your household including your household income range and the ages of the adults in the household.

We store collected information through server log files and/or clear gifs to create user profiles. A user profile is stored information about an individual user that details his or her viewing preferences. Consequently, personally identifiable information is only used for the purposes of providing information to the user, improving the content of the Site for the user, and other specific purposes that we tell you about in this policy.

We will use information provided by you upon registration for our mailing lists in order to send you those newsletters and other mailings for which you have expressed interest. We may use personal information to communicate with you about other services described on or made available through the Site for which you have expressed interest. We also may use personal information to personalize services and customize advertising for you.

We use aggregated information only, and not personally identifiable information, for the purposes of evaluating users’ preferences, improving the Site (including the services and content available through the Site and the layout and organization of the Site) and facilitation of reporting of Internet usage. Non-aggregate, personally identifiable user profiles may be used to tailor a user’s visit to the Site and to direct pertinent information to them.

We do not rent, sell or share information about you with unaffiliated companies or other people, except to provide products or services you have requested, when we have your permission, or under the following circumstances:

· WebSite Developer: Personally identifiable information may be shared with the Site developer for the sole purposes of developing, hosting, managing, operating and supporting the Site.

· Aggregate Information: We may share aggregated demographic information with partners, affiliates and with potential community sponsors. This aggregate information is not linked or traceable to any personally identifiable information about any individual user.

· Legal Disclosures: We reserve the right to disclose personally identifiable information in order to comply with a court order, subpoena or other legal process, or to establish or exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims.

· Investigation of Illegal Activities: It may be necessary for us to share personally identifiable information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the physical safety of any person, or as otherwise required by law.

· Business Transitions: In the event of a business transition involving Forest City Covington NM, LLC, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of assets, users’ personally identifiable information may be part of the assets transferred. Users will be notified via prominent notice on the Site prior to a change of ownership or control of their personally identifiable information.

This privacy policy applies solely to information collected through your access to and use of this Site. However, the Site contains links to other Web sites owned or operated by third parties. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the information gathering and dissemination practices of such other sites, and this privacy policy does not apply to such other sites. When you leave this Site, we encourage you to read the privacy statements of every Web site that collects personally identifiable information about you.

From time-to-time, we may request additional information via surveys, contests, or polls. Participation in these surveys, contests and polls is completely voluntary; therefore you have a choice about whether or not to participate in the survey, contest or poll and to disclose this information. The requested information will typically include contact information (such as name and address), and demographic information (such as zip code). Contact information will be used and may be shared with the contest or survey sponsors to notify the winners and award prizes. Anonymous survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of the Site. If we use an intermediary to conduct any surveys or polls, the intermediary will not be permitted to use your personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes other than the conduct of the survey or poll. Except as otherwise stated in this paragraph, any personally identifiable information you provide in the course of participating in a survey, contest or poll will not be not shared with third parties without your prior authorization.

We take reasonable precautions to ensure that the storage of your personal information is secure. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

We limit access to personally identifiable information about you to our employees and to agents who we believe reasonably need to have that information in order to develop, host, manage, operate and support the Site.

If your personally identifiable information changes (such as phone, email or postal address), or if you no longer desire to receive any newsletters or other mailings from us, you can correct or update your personally identifiable information by updating your mailing preferences. If you would like to have all of your contact information removed from our database, please contact us at info@fcmds.com.

If we decide to change this privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy policy and other places on the Site that we deem appropriate so you are always aware of the information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. We may also email users who have opted to receive communications from us notifying them of the changes in our privacy practices. You should check this Web page periodically for changes to this privacy policy. Any changes to this privacy policy shall be effective immediately upon posting. If any change to this privacy policy is unacceptable to you, your only recourse is to remove yourself from our mailing lists and terminate your use of the Site.

If we would like to use your personally identifiable information in a manner not permitted by the then-current version of our privacy policy, we will request your permission for such use via email. You may in your sole discretion choose whether or not to permit us to use the information in this different manner.
