LACityTours.com knows that you care how information
about you is used and shared, and we appreciate
your trust that we will do so carefully and
sensibly. This notice describes our privacy
policy.

you are accepting the practices described in
this Privacy Notice.
What Personal Information About Customers
Does LACityTours.com Gather?
The information we learn from customers helps
us personalize and continually improve your
shopping experience at LACityTours.com. Here
are the types of information we gather.
- Information You Give Us:
We receive and store any information you enter
on our Web site or give us in any other way.
You can choose not to provide certain information,
but then you might not be able to take advantage
of many of our features. We use the information
that you provide for such purposes as responding
to your requests and communicating with you.
- Automatic Information:
We receive and store certain types of information
whenever you interact with us. For example,
like many Web sites, we use "cookies,"
and we obtain certain types of information
when your Web browser accesses LACityTours.com.
Examples of the information we collect and
analyze include the Internet protocol (IP)
address used to connect your computer to the
Internet; login; e-mail address; password;
computer and connection information such as
browser type and version, operating system,
and platform; purchase history; the full Uniform
Resource Locators (URL) clickstream to, through,
and from our Web site, including date and
time; cookienumber; products you viewed or
searched for, and affiliates you visited.
- A number of companies offer utilities designed
to help you visit Web sites anonymously. Although
we will not be able to provide you with a
personalized experience at LACityTours.com
if we cannot recognize you, we want you to
be aware that these tools exist.
- E-mail Communications:
When making online reservations, we receive
three e-mails with all personal information
that you may have entered along with your
order information so that we may process your
order efficiently. This information is used
solely for this purpose and not given to any
third parties.
- Information from Other Sources:
For reasons such as improving personalization
of our service (for example, providing better
product recommendations or special offers
that we think will interest you), we might
receive information about you from other sources
and add it to our account information.
- What About Cookies?
Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers that
we transfer to your computer's hard drive
through your Web browser to enable our systems
to recognize your browser. The "help"
portion of the toolbar on most browsers will
tell you how to prevent your browser from
accepting new cookies, how to have the browser
notify you when you receive a new cookie,
or how to disable cookies altogether.
Does LACityTours.com Share the Information
It Receives?
Information about our customers is an important
part of our business, and we are not in the
business of selling it to others.
- Affiliated Businesses We Do Not Control:
We work closely with our affiliated businesses,
like hotels and travel websites. In some cases,
we operate stores, provide services, or sell
product lines jointly with these businesses.
You can tell when another business is involved
in your transactions, and we share customer
information related to those transactions
with that business.
- Agents:
We employ other companies and individuals
to perform functions on our behalf. Examples
include fulfilling orders, delivering packages,
sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive
information from customer lists, analyzing
data, providing marketing assistance, processing
credit card payments, and providing customer
service. They have access to personal information
needed to perform their functions, but may
not use it for other purposes.
- Protection of LACityTours.com and Others:
We release account and other personal information
when we believe release is appropriate to
comply with law; enforce or apply our Conditions
of Use and other agreements; or protect the
rights, property, or safety of LACityTours.com,
our users, or others. This includes exchanging
information with other companies and organizations
for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
- With Your Consent: Other than as set out
above, you will receive notice when information
about you might go to third parties, and you
will have an opportunity to choose not to
share the information.
How Secure Is Information About Me?
- We reveal only the first four and last
four digits of your credit card numbers when
confirming an order. Of course, we transmit
the entire credit card number to the appropriate
credit card company during order processing.
- It is important for you to protect against
unauthorized access to your password and to
your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished
using a shared computer.
What Choices Do I Have?
- As discussed above, you can always choose
not to provide information, even though it
might be needed to make a purchase.
- If you do not want to receive Conditions
of Use and other legal notices from us, such
as this Privacy Notice, those notices will
still govern your use of LACItyTours.com,
and it is your responsibility to review them
for changes.
- The "help" portion of the toolbar
on most browsers will tell you how to prevent
your browser from accepting new cookies, how
to have the browser notify you when you receive
a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether.
In addition, the Federal Trade Commission
provides useful information about online privacy
on its own Web site, Site Seeing on the Internet.
