By subscribing and using the services within any of these above websites, it constitutes your acceptance of these policies and our Terms of Use. It is the responsibility of the member to review these policies and terms of use and understand the terms and conditions.

The policy below outlines our information gathering and dissemination practices for any of our website communities.

Information Collection and Use Information Collection
Beautiful Connections, LLC is the sole owner of the information collected on BeautifulConnections.com, BellaLiaisons.com, BeauxLiaisons.com, AmourLiaisons.com, BeaucoupLiaisons.com and LaCageLiaisons.com. Beautiful Connections, LLC collects information from our members at several different points on our Web site.

Subscription In order to use this Web site, a member must first complete the Subscribe process. While subscribing a member is required to provide contact information (such as name and email address) and unique identifiers, such as member names and passwords. We use this information to contact our members about services on our site for which she or he has expressed interest. It is optional for the member to provide profile information, such as income level and interests, but members are encouraged to do so in order that we may provide a more personalized experience on our site.

Billing We request billing information from our members on our subscription form. A member must provide contact information (such as name, email, and billing address) and financial information (such as credit card number, expiration date). This information is used for billing purposes and to process our members' subscription request. This information is collected by our third-party vendor for processing of the credit card information. This third-party vendor also provides customer service for all credit card inquires. If we have trouble processing the subscription, the information is used to contact the member.

Information Use The information gathered from our members during our subscription process is used to provide a premier on-line matchmaking process. The more information provided by our members within their profile ensures a better Beautiful Connection process. Our members' profile information is never used to market products or niche market to a group of members. Our members' information is collectively used by Beautiful Connections for internal informational purposes only, such as marketing reports and analysis. By using this information collectively, we are better able to develop new services to meet our members' needs.

Cookies A cookie is a piece of data stored on the member's computer and tied to information about the member log in. Our sites simply use the cookies for log in and enables our sites to remember you on subsequent visits.
Third Party Advertising The ads appearing on these our websites are provided to our members directly by Beautiful Connections, LLC. The advertising that appears on our sites may be linked to our advertisers' websites. Beautiful Connections, LLC will not share any personal information about our members to our advertisers. However, this privacy statement only covers the use of cookies by Beautiful Connections, LLC and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers should a member visit their websites. We encourage our members to review the privacy statements of any other website visited.

Log Files Like most standard Web site servers we use log files. This includes 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 member's movement in the aggregate, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. IP addresses, etc. are not linked to personally identifiable information. We use a web log analyzer tool that uses log files to analyze member movement.

Communications From Our Sites Special Offers and Updates We send all new members a welcoming email to verify password and member name. Established members may occasionally receive information on new services, special events, and a member updates. Out of respect for the privacy of our members we present the option to not receive these types of communications. When subscribing, please check the option to decline receiving these email updates and correspondence.

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 members an email. Members may not opt-out of these communications. These communications are never promotional in nature.

Customer Service We communicate with members on a regular basis to provide requested services and in regards to issues relating to their account. We reply via email or phone, in accordance with the members wishes.

Sharing Legal Disclaimer Though we make every effort to preserve member privacy, we may need to disclose personal information when required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief that such action is necessary to comply with a current judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process served on our websites.

Aggregate Information (non-personally identifiable) We share aggregated demographic information with our partners and advertisers. We share this information for the purpose of soliciting advertisers and partners, in order to offer more tailored products and services to our members. This aggregate information is not linked to any personally identifiable information.

These are the instances in which we will share members' personal information: Third Party Intermediaries We use a credit card processing company to bill members for subscriptions and products. These companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.

Business Transitions In the event Beautiful Connections, LLC goes through a business transition, such as a merger, being acquired by another company, or selling a portion of its assets, members' personal information will, in most instances, be part of the assets transferred.

Choice/Opt-out Established members may occasionally receive information on new services, special events, and a member updates. Out of respect for the privacy of our members we present the option to not receive these types of communications. Our members are given the opportunity to 'opt-out' of having their information used for these purposes at the point where we ask for information. When subscribing, please check the option to decline receiving these email updates and correspondence.

Members who no longer wish to receive our service and promotional communications may opt-out of receiving these communications by contacting us by phone, e-mail or postal mail. Please obtain this information from our Contact Us page.

Members of our site are always notified when their information is being collected by any outside parties. We do this so our members can make an informed choice as to whether or not they should proceed with services that require an outside party.

Links Our websites contain links to other sites. Please be aware that we, Beautiful Connections, LLC, are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our members 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. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Web site.

Contests & Surveys From time-to-time our site requests information from members through surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and the member therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information. The requested information typically includes contact information (such as name, phone number, and address), and demographic information (such as zip code). Contact information will be used and may be shared with the contest or survey sponsors to notify the winners and award prizes. Anonymous survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site. Members' personally identifiable information is not shared with third parties unless we give prior notice and choice. Though we may use an intermediary to conduct these surveys or contests, they may not use members' personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.

Chat Rooms, Message Boards, and Public Forums Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal information online - for example on message boards, in want-ad listings, through e-mail, or in chat areas - that information can be collected and used by others. In short, by posting personal information online that is publicly accessible, you may receive unsolicited messages from other parties in return. Beautiful Connections, LLC is not responsible for voluntarily disclosed personal information that is used by an unauthorized third-party for a purpose that is contrary to the wishes of our members.

Security This Web site takes every precaution to protect our members' information. When members submit sensitive information via the Web site, their information is protected both online and off-line.
When our subscription form asks members to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the industry - SSL. While on a secure page, such as our subscription form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when members are just 'surfing'.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to protect members-information off-line. All of our members' information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information. Furthermore, all employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Any time new policies are added; our employees are notified and/or reminded about the importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure our members' information is protected. Finally, the servers that store personally identifiable information are in a secure environment.
If members have any questions about the security at our Web site, they may send an email to support@beautifulconnections.com.

Supplementation of Information In order for this Web site to properly fulfill its obligation to members it is necessary for us to supplement the information we receive with information from third party sources.

Enhancement of Marketing Profile We may purchase third party marketing data and combine it with our existing member database to better target our advertising and provide services we think our members would be interested in. We use this information to enhance or overlay the "profile" of individual members. This aggregate marketing data is therefore tied to the members' personally identifiable information. See also "Information Use".

Correcting/Updating/Deleting/Deactivating Personal Information If a member's personally identifiable information changes (such as zip code, phone, email or postal address), or if a member no longer desires our service, we provide a way to correct, update or delete/deactivate members' personally identifiable information. This can usually be done at the My Account page or by emailing our Customer Service staff at: support@beautifulconnections.com

Notification of Changes If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement, the homepage, and other places we deem appropriate so our members are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If, however, we are going to use members' personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection we will notify members by posting a notice on our Web site for 30 days.
