Advertisers. We gather up data across numerous registered user accounts and disclose such information in a non-personally identifiable manner to advertisers and other third parties for their marketing and promotional purposes. For such purposes, we do not disclose any information that we believe could be used to identify Blue Diamond Vactions users personally. Blue Diamond Vactions may receive a fee or other benefits for providing such information.

Affiliates for Our Operations. We may use third parties (affiliates) to facilitate or outsource one or more aspects of the Services that we provide to you and therefore we may provide some of your information directly to these affiliates. We may or may not hold an ownership interest in these affiliates. Affiliates are subject to confidentiality agreements with us and other legal restrictions that restrict or prohibit their use of the information we provide them for any other purpose except to facilitate the specific outsourced service, unless you have explicitly agreed or given your prior permission to them for additional uses.

Legal Requests. Blue Diamond Vactions cooperates with law enforcement authorities, as well as with other third parties, to enforce laws, intellectual property rights, and to prevent fraud. Although as noted below, we typically require a subpoena or similar legal document prior to doing so, we do reserve the right, in response to a verified request by law enforcement or other government officials relating to a criminal investigation or alleged illegal activity, we can, and you authorize us to, disclose your name, full address and postal code, telephone number, email address, login name, access history, IP address, fraud complaints, and site use history, with or without a subpoena.

Control of Your Login Name and Password

Access to the Site and Services is generally controlled by user name and password. Guard this information carefully.

You may also lose access to any account you have created or to transactions in which you were involved. You should change your password regularly using the online process.

Accessing, Reviewing and Changing Your Personal Information

Subject to conditions, Blue Diamond Vactions allows users the ability to review and change the information you submit to us by logging into the site and entering in the new information yourself. For example, once you have logged into the Site, you can change your password, other personal, contact, and financial information, and user preferences by going to the applicable pages and following the instructions.

You must always keep your personal information updated. It is the principle means of our contacting you. Because of limited staff and the difficulties in authentication, we typically do not accept modifications that are not submitted through the Site.

Subject to the [Blue Diamond Vactions General Terms of Service] and other restrictions, you may delete or deactivate your account or information contained therein upon request. To request deletion or deactivation please contact us through our Home Page. In certain circumstances we may refuse or delay deletion or deactivation.

Security

Blue Diamond Vactions follows generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure, however.
