Collection of personal information

For example, we may log environmental variables, such as browser type, operating system, CPU speed, referring or exit web pages, and the Internet Protocol (IP) address of your computer.

Information Collected from your Cell Phone

One of the Services offered by the Site provides for speech recognition (the "Speech Recognition Service"). In connection with the Speech Recognition Service, an audio recording of your voice when speaking a contact name is sent to our Site for transcription into computer readable text representing the words spoken. We may store this audio recording solely for the purpose of improving the quality of the Speech Recognition Service. We do store information that would associate the audio recording data with you personally.

Protection of your personal information

When users submit sensitive information via the Web site, their information is protected both online and off-line. When a form asks users to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number), that information is encrypted and is protected using the browser's SSL capabilities. While on a secure page, such as our registration 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 users are just 'surfing'.

The Site takes every commercially reasonable precaution to protect our users' information. Unfortunately, no data transmissions over the Internet or any wireless network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Therefore, Adela cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us and you do so at your own risk. However, once we receive your transmission, Adela makes it best effort to ensure its security in our systems.

The personal information that you provide in connection with registering yourself as a user of the Site or of the Services is classified as Registration Information. Registration Information is protected in several ways. Access by you to your Registration Information is available through a password and unique customer user name selected by you. This password is encrypted. We recommend that you do not divulge your password to anyone. In addition, your Registration Information resides on secure servers that only selected Adela personnel and contractors have access to via password. Adela encrypts your personal information and thereby strives to prevent unauthorized parties from viewing such information when it is transmitted to Adela.

Personal information that you provide that does not constitute Registration Information also resides on secure servers and is accessible only to selected Adela personnel and contractors via password. Since this information is not accessible online by you, you will not be asked to select a password in order to view or modify such information.

Tracking, use of cookies, web beacons and similar devices

Like most standard Web site servers, we use log files. These log files store internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. Except for the purposes of validating a winning sweepstakes entry and/or researching fraudulant or inapprorpiate use of our Site, Adela does not link this information to personally identifiable data.

The Site and the Services may include the use of third party advertisement services for serving or targeting advertisements, promotions, or other marketing messages on the Site.
