The Use of Cookies

Cookies are used to track visitors to our site, so we can better understand what portions of our site best serve our customers. Visitors are not (and could not be) tracked to other web sites. We also use cookies to allow our server to maintain information regarding referrals to HostIdea.

Cookie information is stored on your computer, and thus is not visible to other users under normal circumstances. All cookies are intended to be non-identifying in nature; this mean that there is no reasonable way for the site to identify the individual person cookie data was collected from.

Registration and Transaction Information

Various information is collected from our customers during sign-up and support. This information is used to conduct billing transactions, perform technical support, set up services, and track customer usage (for billing purposes). We also use the contact information provided during registration to send announcements to Host Idea customers, including our monthly newsletter.

Any customer may choose to "opt-out" of our mailings at any time; merely   to unsubscribe.  Because our newsletter is one of the main methods used to communicate service changes, TheIdeaWeb cannot be responsible for notifying customer of changes to services if they have "opted out" of our announcement e-mails.

All data collected during registration is used by TheIdeaWeb and its agents; it is not shared with any third parties. All data collected during billing transactions is used both by TheIdeaWeb and its agents, as well as PaySystems.com (our CC processor). This information is not shared with any other parties.
