technologies, business practices and our customers'
needs.

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 an aggregate basis.
Personally identifiable information or business information
will not be shared with parties except as required by
law.
Occasionally, we may also
use the information we collect to notify you about important
changes to our Website, new services, and special offers we
think you will find valuable. You may notify us at any 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, rent or give away 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.
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. 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.
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.
