| 2. Information We Collect. |
|
Our primary goal in collecting personal
information from you is to provide you with a
smooth, efficient, and personalized
experience while using our services. This
allows us to provide services and features that most
likely meet your needs, and to customize our service to
make your experience easier and quicker.
To fully use our services, you
will need to register using our customer
profile form, where you will be required to provide us
with your contact information (e.g. shipping address,
e-mail address). We automatically track certain
information about you based upon your behavior
on our site. We use this information to do
internal research on our users'
demographics, interests, and behavior to better
understand and serve our users. This information is
compiled and analyzed on an aggregated basis.
Using the Site's web server log files,
we use IP addresses to analyze trends, track users'
movement, and gather broad demographic information for
aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally
identifiable information. This information may include
the URL that you just came from (whether this URL is on
our site or not), which URL you next go to (whether this
URL is on our site or not), what browser and operating
system you are using, your IP address and similar
information.
Surveys. From
time-to-time our site may request information from users
via surveys. Participation in these surveys is
completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice
whether or not to disclose this information. Information
requested will include contact information (as supplied
to the site during registration) and supplementary
information on your professional interests, opinions and
preferences (e.g. choice of software, musical interests
and practices, opinions on music industry issues,
feedback on the MaestroMD.com web site).
Payment Processing. In
order to process payments online we require the billing
address for the credit card used and our external credit
card processing services provider requires your credit
card details. For details of how your information is
used, please see following section. |

| 3. Our Use of Your
Information. |
|
We use personally identifiable
information about you to improve our marketing and
promotional efforts, to statistically analyze site
usage, to improve our content and product offerings and
to customize our site's content, layout, and services.
We believe these uses allow us to improve our site and
better tailor it to meet our users' needs.
In the event we use your e-mail
address to send you newsletters or other
communications that you have requested from the Site.
Out of respect for our users we offer an opt-out (see
below).
We use information in the file we
maintain about you, and other information we obtain from
your current and past activities on the Site, to resolve
any disputes, troubleshoot problems and enforce our User
Agreement and Insurance Agreement. At times, we may look
across multiple users to identify problems or resolve
disputes, and in particular on rare occasions we may
evaluate your information to look for users using
multiple User IDs or alias.
Payment Processing. We
use an external credit card processing services provider
to take online payments for our sterilization services
and Health Maintenance Kits. In addition to the
information outlined above, we require the billing
address of the credit card you use so that we can pass
this to our provider who checks the address against the
cardholder's details for security purposes. Our credit
card processing services provider requires that you
provide your credit card details to process the
transaction. This is done on a secure server using SSL
(secure sockets layer). As you go through the
transaction process we let you know when you are about
to be transferred to these servers for the secure
transaction. These pages have the look and feel of the
MaestroMD site as we use the credit card processing
services provider?s templates to keep as much of the
MaestroMD branding as possible but you are actually on
the credit card processing provider?s servers and the
information you submit goes to them. After the
transaction has been authorized you are returned to the
MaestroMD site. MaestroMD does not have any access to
these credit card details and they are not stored or
processed in any way by MaestroMD. In the case of a
suspected fraudulent transaction, card details may be
disclosed to MaestroMD by the credit card processing
services provider for the sole purpose of performing
further checks. MaestroMD is not permitted to then
retain these details. These details are stored securely
by credit card processing service provider in order to
process future payments you may make, but this service
provider does not use your information for any other
purpose.
Your Personal Information is stored in
our databases, which are located in the United States.
This information is kept in a safe and secure system
protected from direct connection to the Internet.
Opt-Out of Email
Communications If at any stage you wish no
longer to receive any e-mails that you receive from the
site you can stop them coming by clicking on the ?Opt
Out? option on the bottom of an email or
e-newsletter. |

| 4. Our Disclosure of Your
Information |
|
Unfortunately, due to the existing
regulatory environment, we cannot ensure that all of
your private communications and other personally
identifiable information will never be disclosed in ways
not otherwise described in this Privacy Policy.
By way of example (without limiting the
foregoing), we may be forced to disclose information to
the government or third parties under certain
circumstances, or third parties may unlawfully intercept
or access transmissions or private communications. We
can (and you authorize us to) disclose any information
about you to law enforcement or other government
officials as we, in our sole discretion, believe
necessary or appropriate, in connection with an
investigation of fraud, intellectual property
infringements, or other activity that is illegal or may
expose us to legal liability.
As a general proposition, we do
not sell or rent any personally identifiable information
about you to any third party.
Advertisers. We do
aggregate personally identifiable
information and disclose such information in aggregate
to advertisers and for other marketing and promotional
purposes. However, in these situations, we do not
disclose to these entities any information that could be
used to personally identify you.
Legal Requests.
MaestroMD.com cooperates with law enforcement inquiries
and other third parties to enforce laws, intellectual
property and other rights. Local and international law
enforcement agents can request and may receive your
personally identifiable information.
Suppliers and Other Service
Providers. From time to time we use third party
Suppliers and Service Providers to facilitate our
services. Where any Service Provider collects
information directly from you (such as the situation
where we ask a Service Provider to conduct a survey for
us) you will be notified of the involvement of the
Supplier or Service Provider, and all information
disclosures you make will be strictly optional.

| 5. Control of Your Password |
|
Except as specifically permitted by
this section, you should not disclose
your MaestroMD password to any third parties nor share
it with any third parties. If you lose control of your
password, you may lose substantial control over your
personally identifiable information and may be subject
to legally binding actions taken on your behalf.
Therefore, if your password has been compromised for any
reason, you should immediately change your password by
visiting the profile page on the Site.
If you wish to change your password you
can do so at any time through the ?Change
Password? option after login. |

| 6. Reviewing and Removing your personal
information. |
|
You can at any time ask to see and have
removed any personally identifying information about you
that we have stored, though we reserve the right to
charge for this service. Please contact admin@encoreetcinc.com
if you would like your personal information removed. You
should note that we will retain in our files information
you have requested to remove in some circumstances, such
as to resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems and
enforce any Agreement between you and Encore. Further,
such prior information is never completely removed from
our databases due to technical constraints and the fact
that we back up our systems. Therefore, you should not
expect that all of your personally identifiable
information will be completely removed from our
databases in response to your requests that it be
removed. |

| 7. Other Information
Collectors |
|
Except as otherwise expressly discussed
in this Privacy Policy, this document only addresses the
use and disclosure of information we collect from you.
To the extent that you disclose your information to
other parties, whether they are other members of the
Site or other sites throughout the Internet, different
rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the
personal information you disclose to them. |
| return to
top> |
| 8. Security |
|
In order to process and protect your
credit card details, our payment provider uses SSL
(secure sockets layer). The secure server is hosted by
our payment provider and not MaestroMD.com.
On the MaestroMD site we use best
endeavors to safeguard the confidentiality of your
personal identifiable information but we do not use
encryption (such as SSL) or firewalls to further protect
the information as it travels across the Internet. This
is because we do not believe that the benefits of such
measures warrant the accompanying loss of speed that you
would experience. You should also be aware that
?perfect? security does not exist on the Internet.

| 9. Changes to Privacy
Policy |
|
If we are going to use your personally
identifiable information in a manner different from that
stated at the time of collection, we will notify you via
email prior to making such changes. You will have an
opportunity to notify us to remove personally
identifiable information (as set forth in Section 6
above). In addition, if we make any material changes in
our privacy practices that do not affect user
information already stored in our database, we will post
a prominent notice, before changes go into affect, on
our web site notifying users of the change. In some
cases where we post the notice we will also send an
email notice to users, who have opted to receive
communications from us, notifying them of the changes in
our privacy practices. |
