Privacy Policy

Novada Media LLC operates several websites including contestbee.com. Your privacy is important to us. We have tried to design ContestBee.com so that anybody can visit and use the site without submitting any personal-identifying information and we do not share personal information unless required by law, or to protect our rights.

Website Visitors

Like many website operators, Novada Media collects non-personally-identifying information that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Novada Media’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how ContestBee.com’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Novada Media may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of ContestBee.com.

Novada Media also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to ContestBee.com choose to interact in ways that require Novada Media to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information gathered depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who wish to contact ContestBee.com to fill out a form and provide a name and email address. In each case, Novada Media collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction. Novada Media does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. Visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

Novada Media will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Novada Media discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only in response to a subpoena, court order or other governmental request, or when Novada Media believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of Novada Media, third parties or the public at large. If you are a registered user of ContestBee.com and have supplied your email address, Novada Media may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with Novada Media and our products. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users. Novada Media takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.
