2. Web Site
Use Information
Similar
to other commercial Web sites, our Web site
utilizes a standard technology called "cookies"
(see explanation below, "What Are Cookies?")
and web server log files to collect information
about how our Web site is used. Information
gathered through cookies and Web server logs
may include the date and time of visits, the
pages viewed, time spent at our Web site, and
the Web sites visited just before and just after
our Web site.
How
Do We Use the Information That You Provide to
Us?
Broadly
speaking, we use personal information for purposes
of administering our business activities, providing
the products and services you requested, to
process your payment, to monitor the use of
the service, our marketing and promotional efforts
and improve our content and service offerings,
and customize our site's content, layout, services
and for other lawful purposes. These uses improve
our site and better tailor it to meet your needs.
Furthermore,
such information may be shared with others on

time if you do not wish to receive these offers
by emailing us at the link provided on the newsletter.
What
Are Cookies?
A cookie
is a very small text document, which often includes
an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit
a Web site, that site's computer asks your computer
for permission to store this file in a part
of your hard drive specifically designated for
cookies. Each Web site can send its own cookie
to your browser if your browser's preferences
allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your
browser only permits a Web site to access the
cookies it has already sent to you, not the
cookies sent to you by other sites. Browsers
are usually set to accept cookies. However,
if you would prefer not to receive cookies,
you may alter the configuration of your browser
to refuse cookies. If you choose to have your
browser refuse cookies, it is possible that
some areas of our site will not function as
effectively when viewed by the users. A cookie
cannot retrieve any other data from your hard
drive or pass on computer viruses.
How
Do We Use Information We Collect from Cookies?
As you visit
and browse our Web site, the site uses cookies
to differentiate you from other users. In some
cases, we also use cookies to prevent you from
having to log in more than is necessary for
security. Cookies, in conjunction with our Web
server's log files, allow us to calculate the
aggregate number of people visiting our Web
site and which parts of the site are most popular.
This helps us gather feedback to constantly
improve our Web site and better serve our clients.
Cookies do not allow us to gather any personal
information about you and we do not intentionally
store any personal information that your browser
provided to us in your cookies.
IP
Addresses
IP addresses
are used by your computer every time you are
connected to the Internet. Your IP address is
a number that is used by computers on the network
to identify your computer. IP addresses are
automatically collected by our web server as
part of demographic and profile data known as
traffic data so that data (such as the Web pages
you request) can be sent to you.
Sharing
and Selling Information
We do not
share, sell, lend or lease any of the information
that uniquely identify a subscriber (such as
email addresses or personal details) with anyone
except to the extent it is necessary to process
transactions or provide services that you have
requested.
How
Can You Access and Correct Your Information?
You may
request access to all your personally identifiable
information that we collect online and maintain
in our database by emailing us at the usual
address.
What
About Legally Compelled Disclosure of Information?
We may disclose
information when legally compelled to do so,
in other words, when we, in good faith, believe
that the law requires it or for the protection
of our legal rights. We may also disclose account
information when we have reason to believe that
disclosing this information is necessary to
identify, contact or bring legal action against
someone who may be violating our Terms of Service
or to protect the safety of our users and the
Public.
What
About Other Web Sites Linked to Our Web Site?
We are not
responsible for the practices employed by Web
sites linked to or from our Web site or the
information or content contained therein. Often
links to other Web sites are provided solely
as pointers to information on topics that may
be useful to the users of our Web site.
Please remember
that when you use a link to go from our Website
to another web site, our Privacy Policy is no
longer in effect. Your browsing and interaction
on any other web site, including web sites,
which have a link on our Website, is subject
to that Web site's own rules and policies. Please
read over those rules and policies before proceeding.
Your
Consent
By using
our Web site you consent to our collection and
use of your personal information as described
in this Privacy Policy. We reserve the right
to amend this privacy policy at any time with
or without notice.
Our
Commitment To Data Security:
Please note
that your information will be stored and processed
on our computers in the United States. The laws
on holding personal data in the United States
may be less stringent than the laws of your
Country of residence or citizenship. To prevent
unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy,
and ensure the correct use of information, we
have put in place appropriate physical, electronic,
and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure
the information we collect online.
Choice/Opt-In/Opt-Out
This site
allows visitors to unsubscribe so that they
will not receive future messages. After unsubscribing
we will discontinue sending the particular messages
as soon as technically feasible.
Surveys
& Contests
From time-to-time
our site requests information from users via
surveys or contests. Participation in these
surveys or contests is completely voluntary
and the user therefore has a choice whether
or not to disclose this information. Information
requested may include contact information (such
as name and shipping address), and demographic
information (such as zip code, age level). Contact
information will be used to notify the winners
and award prizes. Survey information will be
used for purposes of monitoring or improving
the use and satisfaction of this site.
A
Special Note About Children
Children
are not eligible to use our services unsupervised
and we ask that children (under the age of 14)
do not submit any personal information to us.
If you are a minor, you can use this service
only in conjunction with permission and guidance
from your parents or guardians.
Acquisition
or Changes in Ownership
In the event
that the web site (or a substantial portion
of its assets) is acquired, your information
would be considered part of those assets, and
may be part of those assets that are transferred.
Policy
Modifications
We may change
this Privacy Policy from time to time. If/when
changes are made to this privacy policy, we
will email users who have given us permission
to do so. We will post any changes here, so
be sure to check back periodically. However,
please be assured that if the Privacy Policy
changes in the future, we will not use the personal
information you have submitted to us under this
Privacy Policy in a manner that is materially
inconsistent with this Privacy Policy, without
your prior consent.
