- Use of personal information
LVLLC may share your basic contact information (i.e. name, address, company, telephone, and email, etc.) with third-party firms such as event organizers, service providers, etc. LVLLC does not, however, share information with any other party about credit card details.If you have identified yourself, or are identified by your employer to LVLLC as being associated with a LVLLC-participating organization, you may receive promotional communications from LVLLC and/or its partners either directly or through your participating organization. Further, when you use your organization’s credit card or LVLLC billing account to transact business with us, the organization will receive information about the materials you have used and reported to LVLLC. Similarly, in circumstances where multiple individuals associated with the same organization share a single LVLLC account or a single user name and password, each individual may have access to information provided by the other individuals on the same account.Please note that we may use outside shipping and printing companies to fulfill orders, and a credit card processing company to bill you for goods and services.

We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable information as required by law and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights and/or to comply with a judicial proceeding, court order or legal process.
LVLLC recognizes and appreciates the importance of the responsible use of your personal information. Further, your personal information is password-protected to prevent unauthorized access to it.

- Use of cookies and other technologies
When you visit fundpro.com or any other LVLLC Web Site, you can surf the site without revealing your identity. In order to improve our sites and our services, we use “cookies” to track your visit. A cookie is a small string of data that is transferred to your browser from a Web Site and can only be read by the Web Site that gave it to you. If you have identified yourself to the Web Site, the cookie acts as an identification card, recording your passwords and preferences, and possibly your license status. The cookie cannot be executed as software code or used to deliver viruses.Most browsers are initially set to accept cookies. You can set your browser to refuse cookies or to notify you when you receive a cookie, giving you the option to accept it or not. LVLLC’s Web-based offerings include a few Web pages that are inaccessible without a cookie. These pages are associated with an automated log-in feature that allows you to access your account information while bypassing the need to provide your identity and password each time. You are not required to use the automated log-in feature. Choosing not to use it will not affect your ability to use any other part of our Web-based offerings or to use LVLLC’s general services. In the event that LVLLC decides to create other Web-based offerings that are inaccessible without a cookie (which LVLLC reserves the right to do), you will be given the option to accept the cookie necessary for such access.As do most Web Sites, LVLLC gathers certain information automatically and stores it in log files. This information includes Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, a date/time stamp and clickstream data. We use this information, which does not include personally identifiable information, to analyze trends, administer the site, track users’ movements around the site and gather demographic information about our user base as a whole.
We may also employ a software technology called pixel tags (also known as Web beacons) that helps us better manage content on our Web Site and in other electronic communications by indicating what content is most effective. Pixel tags are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on your computer’s hard drive, pixel tags are embedded invisibly in Web pages and in other electronic communications.
When you accept our cookies, we use them to track your visit to any LVLLC Web offering. In addition, we may use log files and clear gifs to help manage our Web Site and other electronic communications. However, none of this information, other than the automated log-in feature, identifies you personally or is tied to any of your personally identifiable information. You remain anonymous unless you have otherwise provided LVLLC with personal information.
- Tell a friend
If you choose to use our referral service to tell a friend about our site or share our communications, such as an e-newsletter, we will ask you for your friend’s name and e-mail address. We will automatically forward the content to your friend in a one-time e-mail. LVLLC maintains statistical data tracking the success of our referral program, but we do not store your tell-a-friend information after sending the one-time e-mail. We will store information provided by your friend should he or she choose to receive information from us. - Changing our records of your personal information
You have the right to correct your personal information. This may be accomplished either directly on our Web Site on those screens that allow you to edit your personal information or by e-mailing us via our Contact Page and selecting “Update My Personal Information” from the dropdown menu. When you contact us please include your name, address and/or e-mail address, account number (if known) and a detailed explanation of your request. - Opting out of receiving information from LVLLC
LVLLC follows industry-standard safe unsubscribe practices. You have the right to opt out of receiving marketing communications and newsletters from LVLLC by following the “unsubscribe” instructions that come with each message from us. In addition, you may opt out of receiving such communications by e-mailing us via our Contact Page and selecting “Newsletter Opt Out” from the dropdown menu. - Security
The security of your personal information is important to us. The password that protects your personal information, as well as your credit card information, are encrypted during transmission using secure socket layer (SSL) technology, which is widely used on the Internet for this purpose. These data are also stored in encrypted form.LVLLC adheres to generally accepted industry standards to protect this information, both during transmission and once we receive it. These standards include the use of leading hardware and software applications. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your applicable information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.If you have any questions about security on our Web Site, you can e-mail us via our Contact Page and selecting “Terms of Use/Privacy Inquiry” from the dropdown menu.
- Changes to this Online Privacy Policy
When we make any material change to this Privacy Policy, we will inform you by posting a notice on the homepage of www.fundpro.com for 30 days that the policy has been updated and by changing the date on this page noting when the policy was last updated.
