Profile

We may store information that we collect through cookies and log files to create a profile of our customers. A profile is stored information detailing how individual customers use the website and our services. Collected information in a profile is tied to the customer’s personally identifiable information. However, your profile is used solely for internal purposes, to help us improve the experience of our customers and to offer you additional services and discounts.

Cookies: A cookie is a small text file stored on the customer’s hard drive for an extended period of time. The cookies can be removed by following Internet browser help file directions. Allowing the website cookie to remain on your computer makes it easier for you to log in to and use the website. If you reject the cookie, you may still use the website, but you will be required to verify your identity at various points.

Log Files: Log files record internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser types, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the website, track a customer’s movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses, etc. are not linked to personally identifiable information.

Disclosure of Personal Information As Required By Law

We will disclose personal information when required by law, or if we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on us.

Business Transactions

In the event MOBIbucks goes through a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of a portion of its assets, our customers’ personal information may be part of the assets transferred. Customers will be notified via prominent notice on our website for 30 days prior to a change of ownership or control of their personal information. If, as a result of the business transition, your personally identifiable information will be used in a manner materially different from that stated at the time of collection, you will be given a choice consistent with our Notification of Changes section.

Security

MOBIbucks takes commercially reasonable precautions to protect our customers’ information. For example, when you log on to change your personal information, we encrypt your communications with SSL 128-bit encryption, the industry standard. However, given the nature of the Internet and the fact that network security measures are not infallible, we cannot guarantee the security of your information. While we use encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also make an effort to protect your information off-line. All of our customers’ 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 billing clerk or a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information. All employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Finally, the servers that store your personally identifiable information are housed in a secure environment. MOBIbucks is PCI Level 1 compliant. What is PCI-1? Payment Card Industry - (PCI) Compliance is an initiative which is being strongly enforced by the four major credit card companies (Visa, Mastercard, Discover and American Express). Currently, being PCI compliant means that YOU are in compliance with the four major credit card companies. As of December 15, 2004 - card associations created a set of “Industry Security Requirements”, which are referred to as “PCI Compliance” - (Payment Card Industry Compliance). The agreement amongst the industry was that, if a merchant is VISA CISP compliant, all other companies, Mastercard, AMEX and Discover would honor your CISP compliance, and consider your company PCI Compliant.

In some cases where we post a notice we will also email customers, who have opted to receive communications from us, notifying them of the changes in our privacy practices.
