Markusworks wants you to have a positive experience at this Web site and to know that your privacy rights will be honored. This Web page sets forth the privacy and confidentiality practices in effect at the Markusworks Web site at the songsforthesoul.com domain. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not access this Web site.

1. General Collection and Use of Personal Identifying Information

In order to use some parts of the Web site, a user must complete a buyer information form or Web contact form, provide an e-mail address, or provide information such as name, email, postal address, and so on. We will use this personal identifying information to establish the identity of the submitter and we will retain this information. Generally, we use information only for the purpose for which it was originally collected. For instance, we must use buyer information to deliver products or we might use the collected information to contact a site visitor about services or information on our site in which he or she expressed an interest or to improve and customize our content.

A user can remove his or her consent at any time and stop information from being used for informational and promotional purposes by sending an e-mail request to cspinelli@markusworks.com and requesting to be removed from a list.


2. Cookies

A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's computer and linked to information about the user. Usage of a cookie is not linked to personally identifiable information while on our site.

We sometimes use session-based cookies for shopping cart and session navigation purposes. For example, by setting a cookie on our site, users have their shopping cart items tracked and would not have to log in a password more than once, thereby saving time while on our site. If users reject the cookie or turn off their browser cookies, they can still use our site. However, the user will not be able to purchase items and could be timed out prematurely.


3. Web Service Log File Data

Like most standard Web site servers we use log files. This could include 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. IP addresses, etc. are not linked to personally identifiable information.

1. Newsletters, Forms, and Other Publications

If we offer a newsletter or other subscriptions and a user wishes to subscribe to them, we ask for contact information such as name and email address. Out of respect for our users privacy we provide a way to opt-out of these communications. Please see the Choice/Opt-out section below.


2. E-Commerce and Online Financial Transactions

Any financial transactions initiated through our Web site take place on a secure server and any personal or credit card information is encrypted during transmission. We do our utmost to provide optimum security for our users and use the latest technology to this end. For e-commerce transactions it is also necessary to gather contact information such as name and email address and possibly shipping information such as address. We will use this information in only appropriate ways. See the section below on Information Sharing. If we initiate contact based on this information, we always provide a way to opt-out of these communications. Please see the Choice/Opt-out section below.


3. Service Announcements

On rare occasions it is necessary to send out a strictly service related announcement. For instance, if our service is temporarily suspended for maintenance we might send users an e-mail. Generally, users may not opt-out of these communications. However, these communications are not promotional in nature.


4. Information Sharing

We DO NOT Share Personal Information with Third Parties (except as needed to fulfill requested services using intermediaries or agents) without users' express consent.

Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy, we may disclose personal information when we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with an appropriate law enforcement investigation, current judicial proceeding, a court order, or a legal process that we must legally comply with.


5. Choice/Opt-out

Our users are given the opportunity to "opt-out" of having their information used for purposes not directly related to our site at the point where we ask for information. Users who no longer wish to receive a newsletter or secondary communications may opt-out of receiving these communications by contacting us at cspinelli@markusworks.com or clicking an Unsubmit link in our communications.


6. Links

This Web site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every Web site that collects personally identifiable information. The privacy and confidentiality statement herein applies solely to information collected by the MarkusWorks Web site at the songsforthesoul.com domain.


7. Tell-a-Friend

If a user elects to use our referral service for informing a friend about our site via a "Tell-a-Friend" function, we ask them for the friend's name and email address. We will automatically send the friend a one-time email inviting them to visit the site. We do not store this information except as needed to process the requested referral function.


8. Security

MarkusWorks has taken steps to ensure that personal identifying information collected in the future is secure, and we have limited the number of people who have access to the information by such things as password protections that guard against unauthorized access. Electronic components that store personally identifiable information are in a secure environment.


9. Notification of Changes

If the MarkusWorks decides to change this privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement, the home page, and other places we deem appropriate so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it.
