Privacy Policy
OnTheBallBowling (OTB), the creator of the www.ontheballbowling.com website, values individual privacy, and we want to give our website visitors the opportunity to know what information we collect about them and how OTB collects, protects, uses, discloses and otherwise manages the information gathered, in conformance with applicable law.
At certain points on the www.ontheballbowling.com website, you may be asked to submit information that may personally identify you ("Personal Information" or "Personally Identifiable Information"). All Personally Identifiable Information that we gather is collected in a fair and non-intrusive manner, with your consent, in order to better serve you.
Personally Identifiable Information that you submit via this website is only accessible to OTB employees, contractors and service providers who need the information for the purposes for which it is collected or as you consent.
This Privacy Policy applies to the collection of Personal Information at www.ontheballbowling.com. Different privacy policies and procedures may apply to the collection of Personal Information by the independently owned and operated participating bowling centers; to other web sites; and to information that we obtain offline.
Collection and Use of Personal Information
For the areas of the www.ontheballbowling.com web site where the collection of Personally Identifiable Information is necessary, you will be aware that such information is required because you will have to complete an online form.
The Personal Information that you submit is gathered only on a voluntary basis; you may choose not to provide Personal Information and you will still be able to visit most of the website.
We may collect limited Personally Identifiable Information, including, but not limited to your name, date of birth, email and postal address and any other information that would allow someone to identify or contact you, as well as information about your personal/product preferences, survey responses and online activities, if any, that is known by OTB.
We may also collect limited Personal Information about others from you including, but not limited to, name and email address.
We may collect Personal Information for one of several different purposes, for example:
• to allow us to send you the specific information or materials that you have requested.
• to send you opt in special offers.
We may combine this information with other generally or publicly available information to help us identify our visitors' preferences or interests. You can choose not to allow us to use or your Personally Identifiable Information for direct marketing purposes by indicating your preference at the time of collection, by responding to the promotional email in the manner provided for or by contacting Customer Service at customerservice@ontheballbowling.com.
If you have not opted-out of receiving marketing materials, we may also use, but will not disclose, your Personal Information to promote and market additional goods, services and special offers from us and our affiliates. Otherwise, we do not provide your information to third parties for their own direct marketing purposes.
At any time you may "opt out" of future contacts by un-subscribing from our contact list or contacting Customer Service at customerservice@ontheballbowling.com. We sometimes use the non-Personally Identifiable Information that we collect to improve the design and content of our site and to enable us to personalize your Internet experience.
We may use this information in the aggregate (grouped with information from other users) to analyze site usage, as well as to offer you products, programs, or services. Typically, we will seek consent for the use of your Personal Information at the time of collection.
In certain circumstances, consent may be sought after the information has been collected but before use (for example when we want to use information for a use not previously identified). The form of consent we seek, including whether it is express or implied, will largely depend on the sensitivity of the information and the reasonable expectations of the individual in the circumstances.
You may withdraw consent at any time, subject to legal and contractual restrictions and reasonable notice. If you wish to withdraw consent, please contact our Privacy Officer in the manner described below. We will inform you of the implications of withdrawing consent at or before the time of withdrawal.
We will not, as a condition of the supply of a product or service, require you to consent to the collection, use or disclosure of information beyond that required to fulfill the explicitly specified and required purposes for which the information is being required.
We are not collecting personal or any data through Third party (FaceBook).
Sharing of Personal Information
Except as described in this Privacy Policy, OTB will not disclose your Personal Information to a third party, unless you request or otherwise consent to such disclosure, or disclosure is required or authorized by law.
We do not sell information to third parties. We may share information with agents, affiliates or service providers who act for or on behalf of OTB in connection with the business of OTB, or for further processing in accordance with the purpose(s) for which the data were originally collected, e.g., third party maintenance of secure listing databases or prize fulfillment in connection with a contest or sweepstakes.
We require our agents, affiliates and service providers to agree in writing to maintain the confidentiality and security of Personal Information they maintain on behalf of OTB and not to use it for any purpose other than the purpose for which we retained them. We also require any third parties we retain to protect Personal Information disclosed by us [in accordance with all applicable state, federal, and foreign privacy requirements and the general privacy principles described in this Privacy Policy].
Your Personal Information may be provided to a courier or freight forwarder in order to fulfill an order you may have requested from us or supply a promotion prize or award. OTB may also share statistical or demographic information in aggregate form with service providers for marketing or research purposes. This aggregate data will not contain any information that personally identifies you.

(1) to comply with a judicial proceeding, a court order, or subpoena, or as otherwise may be required by law;
(2) to enforce our policies or contracts, or to collect amounts owed to us;
(3) to protect users of our sites and our sites from fraudulent or abusive use;

(5) during emergencies when safety is at risk, as determined by OTB, or
(6) otherwise where necessary for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

A Note to Parents/Guardians:
OTB takes special measures to help maintain and protect the personal privacy of children less than 13 years of age for the purposes of complying with the Children's Online Privacy and Protection Act of 1998 ("COPPA") in the United States.
The www.ontheballbowling.com website is a general audience site that is neither designed nor intended to collect any Personally Identifiable Information from children under the age of 13.
At the www/ontheballbowling.com web site we have put in to place certain screens to ensure that children under 13 do not submit Personally Identifiable Information, and we do not knowingly accept any information from children under the age of 13.
However, if the parent or legal guardian of a child under 13 believes that the child has provided us with Personally Identifiable Information, the parent or guardian of that child should contact us at Customerservice@ontheballbowling.com if they want this information deleted from our files. If OTB otherwise obtains knowledge that it has Personally Identifiable Information about a child under 13 in its files, we will delete that information from out existing files so that it is not in retrievable form.
Data Integrity and Security
We strive to keep any information you provide as secure as possible, and we require our agents, affiliates and service providers to follow the same high standards.
