Privacy Notice

MONTAC values your privacy. To keep you informed, we have created this privacy statement that discloses our purposes and methods for online collection and use of information. This statement applies to all information collected through the MTB Madness website and information gathered from any web pages that we host.

Types of Information Collected

Generally, personal information is not collected from visitors to the MTB Madness website. However, in order to access certain special services, personal information is requested; those cases are described in more detail below.

Forums Registration

MONTAC requires a valid e-mail address for users who want to participate in the MTB Madness Forums. This allows us to protect our community from abusive postings and provides a verifiable point of contact should legal questions arise. At any time, you have the ability to keep your e-mail address hidden from other users by selecting that option within your user profile.

Also in the forums registration, you have the option of providing some additional information such as occupation, interests, and homepage URL. This information is made available to other bulletin board users to foster a sense of community. If you have any concerns about providing this information, simply leave the fields blank and your registration will still be processed.

IF YOU ARE 12 YEARS OF AGE OR YOUNGER and would like to participate in the MTB Madness Forums, you will need to print the Parental Consent Form and have your parent or legal guardian fax it to MONTAC at 425-977-0798 prior to posting inn the MTB Madness Forums.

Newsletter Subscription

MONTAC offers an option to subscribe to a periodic newsletter regarding its  activities, promotions, product announcements and news items. The only piece of information required is the user’s e-mail address, which is only used to distribute the requested newsletter. You can "unsubscribe" to the newsletter at any time by e-mailing unsubscribe@montac.com with the subject line "NEWSLETTER UNSUBSCRIBE".

Cookies

Certain activities on the MTB Madness website involve the use of "cookies" to facilitate your experience. This includes retention of your username and password for the MTB Madness Forums and showing a default Topic View when you visit the forums. You have the option to turn these cookies off at any time by updating your user profile preferences. If your browser doesn’t support cookies, or if you have cookies turned off, these preferences will not be set.

Purchasing and/or Credit Card Information

MONTAC strives to maintain strict security for your private information. Our online ordering pages (when implemented) are on a secure server, providing a safe means of ordering our products. We do not maintain any credit card information online at MONTAC, which means that you have to provide it each time you make a purchase, but also means that your information is controlled by you alone.

Disclosure of Personal Information

MONTAC Enterprises does not disclose your personally identifying information to any third parties for any purpose without your prior consent. All reasonable care is taken by staff handling personal information to ensure its security both offline and online.

It’s also important to be aware that when you voluntarily provide personal information (e.g., last name, address, phone number) in a posting on the bulletin board, that information is publicly available and may be used by someone in a manner unintended by you. For that reason, we discourage the offering of any personally identifying information within the message board itself.

Privacy for Children Aged 12 and Under

Although the MTB Madness website is targeted at a general adult audience, we welcome the participation of younger users with their parents’ consent. We strongly recommend that users 12 and under refrain from offering any personal information either in their user profile or in the message boards themselves, and we encourage parents to stay involved in the online life of their children.

Please view a copy of the parental permission form. Prior to a child’s registration on the Forums, this form must be signed by the child’s parent or legal guardian and faxed to MONTAC at 425-977-0798 or mailed to:

MONTAC Enterprises
Attn:  Privacy Administrator
PO Box 245
Hanford, CA 93230.

MONTAC Enterprises is prohibited from conditioning a child’s participation in an activity on the child’s disclosing more personal information than is reasonably necessary to participate in such activity.

Parents can review and request deletion of their child’s personal information, and can refuse to permit further collection or use of their child’s information. In order to request such a review, to revoke previously offered parental consent, or to express any concerns regarding a child’s privacy on our website, please send a signed written request to:

MONTAC Enterprises
Attn:  Privacy Administrator
PO Box 245
Hanford, CA 93230

or fax our Privacy Administrator at 425-977-0798.
