Security of Personal Information
We exercise reasonable care to protect your non-public personal
information. This includes storing the personal information on our
servers behind a secured firewall and ensuring all transmissions
to other vendors use secure encryption technology. Unfortunately,
no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100%
secure. So while we strive to protect your non-public personal information,
we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit
to us or receive from us. This is especially true for information
you transmit to us via e-mail. We have no way of protecting that
information until it reaches us. Once we receive your transmission,
we maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect
your personal information.
Internally, we will limit access to non-public personal information to those associates who need the information to provide products and services to you or maintain or service those products or services. These associates are limited in number, and are committed to our privacy and security policies. We will review our security arrangements from time to time, as we deem appropriate.
Sharing of Non-Public Personal Information
We reserve the right to, without notice to you, share non-public
personal information with companies that work for us for the sole
purpose of providing you with valuable services you've requested
or already have through LVCVA.com or onlylasvegas.com. These companies
may assist us in fulfilling your requests or processing your transactions.
We will only share information with companies that work for us to
provide marketing and other services and with non-affiliated persons
and entities with whom we have entered into a joint marketing agreement,
where we together market either our products or those of our marketing
partner if you expressly authorize us to share this information.
These companies are contractually forbidden from disclosing or using
our customer information other than to carry out the purposes for
which the information was disclosed. These companies are in no way
authorized to sell, rent or trade your personal information. While
there are such contractual obligations in place, we cannot and do
not guarantee that a third party could breach its obligation and
use your non-public personal information in a way contrary to our
policy.
We may disclose information, including non-public personal information, in special cases when we have a good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to legal requirements or comply with the legal process such as, but not limited to situations when we are required to do so by federal, state or local laws and regulations or when we receive a subpoena or are ordered by a court to do so; (b) protect and defend our rights; or (c) act to protect the interests of our users or others. Additionally, we may, without notice to you, provide aggregate statistics about visitors to LVCVA.com and onlylasvegas.com such as volume, traffic patterns and related site information to reputable third-party vendors, but these statistics will include no personal information.

Monitoring Site Traffic
We collect anonymous user information by using Cookies. This enables
LVCVA to gather information about every visit to our site. Once
a user has registered on the LVCVA Web site LVCVA might elect to
use Cookies to track a specific user. We use this information to
enhance the user experience during future visits to the Web site.
We might also collect information on the browser type including
plug-in versions, for example Flash or QuickTime. Another example
of information we might capture is the URL where a user is entering
or exiting the site.
Cookie Use
A Cookie is a small piece of information that the browser sends
to the Web server with each page request. A Cookie can be saved
on a user's hard drive as a small text file or it can be restricted
to the computer's memory where it is removed once the browser is
closed. Only the Cookies that are associated with a specific URL
are sent to the Web server, Cookies that are sent from one Web server
are never sent to another Web server. LVCVA uses Cookies to identify
specific machines in order to gather aggregate data on how Web users
are utilizing the LVCVA.com and onlylasvegas.com Web sites. In some
cases Cookies might be used to identify a specific user.
Pixel/Spotlight Tags
A "pixel tag" or "spotlight tag" is a small
graphic file that is included in the Web page being displayed. By
virtue of its existence on specific pages LVCVA can gain further
information on how users are making use of the LVCVA.com and onlylasvegas.com
Web sites. Since the browser requesting this small graphic file
is no different than the browser requesting any other Web page it
is possible that a Cookie might be transmitted along with the request.
This means that all the information that is identified in the "Site
Traffic Monitoring" section can also be collected by the use
of a "pixel" or "spotlight" tag.

Any material, information or idea you transmit to or post on LVCVA.com
or onlylasvegas.com by any means will be treated as non-confidential
and non-proprietary, and may be disseminated or used by the Las
