We Value Your Trust

The cornerstone of every relationship is built on trust. We want you to feel confident that the information we collect, and that you choose to share, will be treated with care.

The first step in helping you to achieve that level of comfort and confidence is by explaining (in plain English) exactly what types of information we collect and why we collect it. It is our sincere hope that by being forthright in this communication of our Privacy Policy that the relationship we establish is a long-lasting one.

Our Pledge

Why We Collect Personal Information

Fidelity Creations, Inc. (PastorGraphics.com) collects personal information to personalize your experience with our site(s). The more we know about you, the more we can present you with information and features that will interest you. The facts you provide, along with data stored in your personal 'cookie' (see below) may also be used to make your online experience faster and more convenient.

We also use user information to measure our success and performance. For example, aggregate information gives us an idea of the number of visitors we attract and how they navigate they site. The information we collect enables us to contact users with offers and advertisements that may appeal to them.

There are two types of cookies:

- The first type, a session cookie, only stays in your computer during the time you are logged into a particular site. When you leave the site, the cookie automatically deletes itself.

- The other type, called a persistent cookie, can have an indefinite shelf life or have a predetermined expiration date built in. These types of cookies are primarily used to remember you for a specified period of time. For instance, if you sign up for membership in a club, or enter a sweepstakes that requires you to participate over a length of time, persistent cookies are used to remember you. Another example is with web sites that offer the ability to personalize the way the page is displayed.

Cookie Examples:

How to Prevent Cookies

If you are concerned about being identified or about having your web browsing traced through the use of a cookie, you can prevent them from being deposited in your computer. You can also set your browser to warn you whenever a cookie is being deposited.

Remember though that the majority of web sites use cookies and that blocking all cookies will prevent some online services from working. An e-commerce or shopping site, for example, likely uses cookies in their shopping process. Also, setting your browser to warn you can also become quite annoying.

Security

PastorGraphics.com stores all data behind carefully selected security devices, such as firewalls or offline computer equipment. All internal communication with the system and communication of private member data, such as credit card information, is transmitted using encrypted protocols. Policies related to staff access to private member data are in place. All data is held in the strictest confidence, protected by the strictest security standards.

Detecting Your System's Performance Level

Sometimes, prior to serving a web page, a web server will use a simple html program to check the speed of your Internet connection or the existence of certain plug-ins or software. An example would be to detect which version of a particular browser you are using or which version of the Macromedia Flash plug-in you have. Once identified, the server delivers the page or Flash movie to match the performance level or version of the software or plug-in in your system. The benefit is that you always see the content in its optimum state.

Not all web site owners do this simply because it means having to build multiple versions of content. In fact, most simply offer a statement on their homepage to the effect that "This site is best viewed using Microsoft IE 4.0 and/or Netscape 4.0 etc."

In the PastorGraphics.com web site, we sometimes check your Internet connection speed in order to deliver multi-media content such as Flash content or Dynamic Graphics at its optimum viewing level.

Opting In/Opting out: What it is and how we use it.

The term 'opting in' is Web terminology for voluntarily electing to receive additional information from the owner of a web site. Opting out is the act of telling the owner of the site that you no longer wish to receive their updates. Simply visiting a Web site does NOT constitute opting in to receive additional information. The majority of Web sites will provide a means for you to indicate your desire to receive additional information from them. Generally this opportunity will present itself as an additional check box when you visit a Web site and request a brochure or fill out a survey.

At any given time within the PastorGraphics.com web site there are multiple opportunities to elect to receive updates or further information from us. This opting in process is generally associated with areas like Brochure Requests, News Letters, requests for updates, etc. The 'other' information could include news about PastorGraphics.com, news letters, mailings, or other affiliate types of information.

Secure Sockets Layer (SSL): What it is and how we use it.

Reputable sites that collect sensitive personal information, such as credit card numbers that you use for purchasing products and services over the internet pass your information through what is called 'Secure Sockets Layer' or SSL. This is encryption technology that helps safeguard your personal information against misuse by unauthorized individuals.

All information we collect from you that contains personally identifiable information is passed through SSL.

Protecting Your Children's Privacy

We will never knowingly collect information from children under 13 years of age. If we discover that any personally identifiable information collected is from a person under 13 years of age, that information will be deleted from our database. More information can be found online at the FTC's Children's Privacy Web site.
