Collection of Your Personal Information

In order to access some areas of this website you will be asked to sign in with a log-on name and password. We call this information your identifications. To create your identifications you will be asked to provide a question and secret answer that we use to help verify your identity and assist you if you forget your password and it must be reset. A unique number is assigned to your information that will be used to associate your information with your identity.

To become a member or a shop participant, we ask you to provide personal information, including, but not limited to, your email address, name, address(es) and telephone number(s). We also will request demographic information, including, but not limited to, your zip code, age, gender, interests, favorites, and preferences. If you are a shop participant and choose to sign up for basic, basic showcase or premium showcase services, we will ask for additional information, including your credit card number and billing address.

We will collect information about your visit, including the pages you view, the links you click and other actions you take. We also collect certain standard information that your browser sends to our website when you visit.

If you elect to receive newsletters and/or promotional information from Antique Travel Guide USA, we may use technologies to determine whether the email has been opened and which links you click on in order to provide you with more focused communications and/or other information.

Use of Your Personal Information

Antique Travel Guide USA collects and uses your personal information to operate and improve its site and deliver the services or carry out the requests you have made.  Our desire in doing this is to provide you with more effective customer service and to perform the research we need to improve our site and services.

We also will use your personal information to communicate with you.  We will send you communications, such as welcome letters, billing reminders (if applicable), newsletters (if requested), and other information or items that we believe you might be interested in.  We may also occasionally send you promotional emails to inform you of new products or services that are available through the website.

Personal information collected on Antique Travel Guide USA will be stored and processed in the United States, and by using this site you are consenting to the collection, use, and retention of data by Antique Travel Guide USA.

Sharing Your Personal Information

Antique Travel Guide USA will not disclose your personal information for any reason to any company, organization, or individual without your consent. 

We use third party services to host our website, process our monthly newsletters, provide secure services for credit card transactions, and perform statistical analysis of our services.  These companies are permitted to obtain only the personal information they must have to perform the services we have requested.  They are required to maintain the confidentiality of the information and are prohibited from using it for any other purpose.

Accessing Your Personal Information

You will have the ability to review and edit your personal information online at any time.  In order to prevent your personal information from being viewed by others, you will be required to sign in with your identification information (log-in name and password).

You can, at any time, stop the delivery of future promotional email from Antique Travel Guide USA by following the specific instructions in the email you receive.

Security of Your Personal Information

Antique Travel Guide USA is committed to protecting the security of your personal information.  We use a variety of security technologies and procedures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.  Your information is stored on computer systems with limited access that are stored in controlled facilities.  When we transmit highly confidential information (such as credit card numbers or passwords) over the Internet, we protect it through the use of encryption, using SSL protocol. 

We will keep your password confidential, and ask that you do the same.  Do not share this information with anyone.  If you are sharing a computer with anyone, you should always choose to log out before leaving a site or service to thus protect your information from subsequent users.

Use of Cookies

Antique Travel Guide USA uses "cookies" to enable you to more easily sign in to our site.  A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Web page server.  Cookies contain information that can later be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.  Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer.

Antique Travel Guide USA uses cookies to store your preferences and other information on your computer in order to save you time by eliminating the need to repeatedly enter the same information and to display your personalized content when you visit this site in the future.

When you sign in to our site using your identification information, your unique ID number and the time you signed in is stored in an encrypted cookie on your hard disk.  This cookie allows you to move from page to page on the site without having to sign in again on each page.  When you sign out, these cookies are deleted from your computer.  You have the option of having a cookie remain on your hard disk that stores your log-in name, enabling you to sign in by just typing your password.

You also have the ability to accept or decline cookies.  Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can, in most cases, modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer.  If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to sign in to the web site.

Terms and Conditions of Use

We have taken every effort to design our Web site to be useful, informative, helpful, honest and fun.  Hopefully we have accomplished that, and ask that you let us know if you see areas where we can improve, or changes that would make it easier for you to find the information you want or need.  By accessing and using the Antique Travel Guide USA Web site, you are agreeing to our terms and conditions of use.  Thus we ask that you read through these carefully.

All materials on this site are the copyrighted property of Antique Travel Guide USA.  All trademarks, service marks, and trade names are proprietary to Antique Travel Guide USA.  No material from our site may be copied, reproduced, republished, posted, transmitted, or distributed in any way, except that you may download our information and materials on a single computer for your personal, noncommercial home use only, provided that you 1) retain all copyright, trademark and propriety notices, 2) you make no modifications to the materials, 3) you do not use the materials in a manner that suggests an association with any of our products, services, or brands, and 4) you do not download quantities of materials to a database, server, or personal computer for reuse for commercial purposes.  Any attempt to modify any of our material, or to defeat or circumvent our security features, is prohibited.

Anything you download is considered licensed to you by Antique Travel Guide USA for your personal, noncommercial home use only.  We do not transfer title of any of our materials to you.  Rather, we retain full and complete title to everything on our Web site, and you are not allowed to redistribute or sell any of our materials or otherwise convert it to any form that others can use.

Limitation of Liability

Antique Travel Guide USA will not be liable for any damages or injury that accompany or result from your use of this site.

These include, but are not limited to, damages or injury caused by any:

• Use of (or inability to use) this site
• Use of (or inability to use) any site to which you hyperlink from our site
• Failure of our site to perform in the manner you expected or desired
• Error on our site
• Omission on our site
• Interruption of availability of our site
• Defect on our site
• Delay in operation or transmission from our site
• Computer virus or line failure

Please note that we are not liable for any damages, including:

• Damages intended to compensate someone directly for a loss or injury
• Damages reasonably expected to result from a loss or injury (known in legal terms as "consequential damages.")
• Other miscellaneous damages and expenses resulting directly from a loss or injury (known in legal terms as "incidental damages.")

We are not liable, even if we've been negligent or if our authorized representative has been advised of the possibility of such damages, or both.

Exception:  Certain state laws may not allow us to limit or exclude liability for these "incidental" or "consequential" damages.  If you live in one of those states, the above limitation obviously would not apply, which would mean that you might have the right to recover these types of damages.

However, in any event, our liability to you for all losses, damages, injuries, and claims of any and every kind (whether the damages are claimed under the terms of a contract, or claimed to be caused by negligence or other wrongful conduct, or they're claimed under any other legal theory) will not be greater than the amount you paid to access our site.

Links to Other Sites

We sometimes provide referrals to and links to other World Wide Web sites from our site.  Such a link should not be seen as an endorsement, approval, or agreement with any information or resources offered at sites you can access through our site.  If in doubt, always check the Uniform Resource Locator (URL) address provided in your WWW browser to see if you are still on our Antique Travel Guide USA-operated site or have moved to another site. 

Antique Travel Guide USA is not responsible for the content or practices of third party sites that may be linked to our site.  When Antique Travel Guide USA provides links or references to other Web sites, no inference or assumption should be made and no representation should be inferred that Antique Travel Guide USA is connected with, operates, or controls those Web sites.  Any approved link must not represent in any way, either explicitly or by implication, that you have received the endorsement, sponsorship, or support of the Antique Travel Guide USA site, or that you have received the endorsement of any of our employees, agents or directors.

Reviewing Submissions for Online Postings

Antique Travel Guide USA has the right to review the content of any submissions for posting by Antique Shop owners or agents prior to that content being published on the site.  This includes, but is not limited to, shop information, photos, items for sale, and national, regional, state, and/or shop events.  We expect shop owners and/or their agents to adhere to a sense of decency and decorum that we deem appropriate.  We are the sole authority on questions of appropriateness.

Antique Travel Guide USA does not assume any responsibility or liability arising from the content of an online posting.  However, we do specifically prohibit the posting or transmitting of any unlawful, threatening, libelous, obscene, scandalous, inflammatory, pornographic, or profane material, or any material that could constitute or encourage what could be considered a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, or otherwise violate any law.  Antique Travel Guide USA will fully cooperate with authorities or court orders requesting details of criminal postings. 

Antique Travel Guide USA shall have the right in its sole discretion to edit, refuse to post, or remove any material submitted to our Web site.
