AreaGuides, LLC and PrinceWilliamCounty.com Privacy Policy
PrinceWilliamCounty.com is committed to protecting your privacy. While using our website,
you do not have to identify yourself or divulge personal information. If you
should choose to give us your personal information, you decide the amount of
information you provide. This Privacy Statement applies to data collection and
usage on PrinceWilliamCounty.com and other community websites that are part of the
AreaGuides, LLC Network. You can find links to all active sites on the
Areaguides.com homepage.
Personal information of all users is collected, used and disclosed as described
in this Privacy Statement.
Collection of your Personal Information
When you sign up on PrinceWilliamCounty.com, we may ask for your name, address, telephone
number, email address, and other information. We use the information you provide
to send you the latest news and updates from PrinceWilliamCounty.com.
Use of your Personal Information
PrinceWilliamCounty.com collects and uses your personal information to operate
PrinceWilliamCounty.com and deliver the services you have requested. These services may
include the display of customized content based upon what you have requested.
We occasionally hire other companies to provide limited services on our behalf,
such as handling the processing and delivery of mailings, providing customer
support, processing transactions, or performing statistical analysis of our
services. We will only provide those companies the personal information they
need to deliver the service. They are required to maintain the confidentiality
of your information and are prohibited from using that information for any other
purpose.
Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may need to disclose
personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief
that such action is necessary to comply with an appropriate law enforcement
investigation, current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process
served on our web site.
Control of your Personal Information
There are many reasons to hide your real identity when you use the Internet. You
might want to protect yourself against an oppressive government, or post
personal messages to our community without identifying yourself to the whole
world as the poster. Therefore, you may choose to use a user name other than
your actual name when posting content on websites such as PrinceWilliamCounty.com. This
applies to all sites within the AreaGuides, LLC network (e. g. PrinceWilliamCounty.com).
For help send e-mail to support@areaguides.com.

AM and 5 PM EST, Monday through Friday.

We care about the safety and privacy of children online, and we comply with the
Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA). COPPA and its
accompanying FTC regulations establish United States federal law that protects
the privacy of children using the Internet. We do not knowingly contact or
collect personal information from children under 13. Our site is not intended to
solicit information of any kind from children under 13, and we have designed our
sites to block our knowing acceptance of information from children under 13
whenever age-related information is requested.
