Protecting your online privacy is important to Intrawest Corporation. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use the personal information you may provide while using this Web site (www.panoramahomeowneres.com). This privacy policy applies specifically to information collected by Intrawest Corporation on this Web site.

Out of concern for your privacy, Intrawest Corporation and its affiliates ("Intrawest") will not sell, rent, share or otherwise transfer for payment to any third party, any information gathered during your visit to this site that identifies you personally ("personally identifiable information"). All personally identifiable information is protected under this policy and is maintained and accessible only by Intrawest. Except as part of aggregate demographic data that is not linked to your personally identifiable information, your personally identifiable information will not be disclosed to any third party other than to affiliates, consultants and agents of Intrawest Corporation to assist us in improving Intrawest products and services, to respond to your specific requests for information, and with your consent to provide you with additional information from time to time.

What information are we collecting?

We collect two types of information: anonymous site usage data and personally identifiable information.

Anonymous site usage data is the information we can extract from server log files. Each time you click on a link to bring up a new page, information is automatically updated to a log file on the web server. That information consists of:

your IP address (which is often an IP address provided by your Internet service provider)

the file or page that you requested,

the time that the request was made

the referring page (the URL that you made the request from)

the browser type that you are using

Intrawest will also collect information that identifies you ("personally identifiable information") when you sign up for Priority Registration, make an e-mail request, or send a postcard. This information includes:

your name address telephone number e-mail address

PLEASE NOTE: This personally identifiable information is only collected when you agree to provide this information to us on site. To ensure that all users are aware of what is being done with this information, at every point on the site where this information is collected, users are presented with a clear link to our privacy policy.

How is your information protected?

This site has security measures in place designed to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control. All collected information is kept in a secured network environment with restricted access.

What do we do with the information we collect?

As indicated above, currently, the only personally identifiable information collected on the site is contact information. Except with your consent, Intrawest will only use this information to assist us in improving Intrawest products and services, to respond to your specific requests for information, and with your consent to provide you with additional information from time to time.

Intrawest makes use of the anonymous site usage information gathered to continually improve the site by gaining an understanding of how users interact with the site and responding to their needs. Without collecting site usage data for instance, we would not be able to identify possible problem areas on the site, highlight potentially valuable and interesting content areas, or understand how successful our site was in delivering a positive experience.

What are 'cookies' and why do we use them?

Essentially, a cookie is a small text file sent by a Web server and saved on your browser. A cookie file generally contains information such as a user ID that the site uses to track the pages you've visited and the date(s) you visited the site. No personally identifiable information is stored within cookies used by this site. Our site uses 'cookies' to help make the anonymous site usage data more useful and help us gain a better understanding of site usage so that we can identify ways to improve the content, variety and offerings on our site.

A cookie can't read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. If you've set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, you will receive the warning message with each cookie. You may refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser. You should be aware, however, that this may interfere with the operation of the site. Since cookies are only text files, they cannot run on your computer, search your computer for other information or transmit any information to anyone.

How can you access, edit, or delete your information?

We will in all cases respect your privacy preferences. All uses of information referred to above are subject to you not having refused or withdrawn consent to the collection, use [or disclosure] of that information, where applicable. We cannot of course, provide certain services to you unless you supply us with certain information. Should you wish to gain access, edit or delete to your information, please contact Lisa Copland at: lcopland@intrawest.com.
