PRIVACY POLICY
Your privacy is very important to
us. We want to make your experience with us is as enjoyable and
rewarding as possible, and we want you to use the information,
tools, and opportunities on our site with complete confidence.
We have created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm
commitment to privacy and security. This Privacy Policy describes
how our company collects information from all end users of our
Internet services (the "Services")-those who access some of our
Services but do not have accounts ("Visitors") as well as those who
may purchase Products and/or pay a monthly service fee to subscribe
to the Service ("Members")-what we do with the information we
collect, and the choices Visitors and Members have concerning the
collection and use of such information. We request that you read
this Privacy Policy carefully.
Personal
Information Our Company Collects and How It Is Used
Introduction. Our company collects information in different ways
from Visitors and Members who access the various parts of our
Services and the network of Web sites accessible through our
Service. We use this information primarily to provide a customized
experience as you use our Products and Services, and generally, do
not share this information with third parties. However, we may
disclose personal information collected if we have received your
permission beforehand or in very special circumstances, such as when
we believe that such disclosure is required by law or other special
cases described below.
Registration: Members may be asked to provide certain personal
information when they sign up for our Products or Services including
name, address, telephone number, billing information (such as a
credit card number), and the type of personal computer being used to
access the Services. The personal information collected from Members
during the registration process is used to manage each Member's
account (such as for billing purposes). This information is not
shared with third parties, unless specifically stated otherwise or
in special circumstances.
However, in
instances where our company and a partner jointly promote our
Services, we may provide the partner certain personal information,
such as the name, address, and username of persons who subscribed to
the Services as a result of the joint promotion for the sole purpose
of allowing us and the partner to assess the results of the
promotion.
In this
instance, personal information may not be used by the partner for
any other purpose. We may also generate non-identifying and
aggregate profiles from personal information Members provide during
registration (such as the total number, but not the names, of
Members). As explained in more detail below, we may use this
aggregated and non-identifying information to sell advertisements
that appear on the Services.
Our Company Partners and Sponsors: Some products and services may
be offered to Visitors and Members in conjunction with an affiliate,
independent contractor seller or non-affiliated partner. To provide
Visitors and Members some of these products and services, the
partner may need to collect and maintain personal information. In
these instances, you will be notified before any such data is
collected or transferred and may decide not to use that particular
service or feature.
Additionally,
our partners may have advertisements or co-branded Web Pages that
are cosponsored by an affiliate, independent contractor seller, or
non-affiliated partner. Our company may share non-identifying and
aggregate information (except as described above), but not personal
information, with such partners in order to administer the
co-branded products or services offered.
Online Shopping: At some Web sites, you can purchase products and
services or register to receive materials, such as a newsletter,
catalog or new product and service updates. In many cases, you may
be asked to provide contact information, such as your name, address,
email address, phone number, and credit/debit card information.
If you complete
an order for someone else, such as an online gift order sent
directly to a recipient, you may be asked to provide information
about the recipient, such as the recipient's name, address, and
phone number. Our company has no control over the third parties' use
of any personal information you provide when placing such an order.
Please exercise care when doing so.
If you order services or products directly from our company we will
use the personal information you provide only to process that order.
We do not share this information with outside parties except to the
extent necessary to complete that order.
Online Advertisements: Our company may display our online
advertisements. In those cases we share aggregated and
non-identifying information about our Visitors and Members collected
through the registration process as well as through online surveys
and promotions with these advertisers.
Additionally,
in some instances, we use this aggregated and non-identifying
information to deliver tailored advertisements or joint ventures.
For instance, an advertiser or joint venture company tells us the
audience they want to reach and provides us an advertisement
tailored to the audience. Based upon the aggregated and
non-identifying information we have collected, we may then display
or send the advertisement to the intended audience. Our company does
not share personal information about its Visitors or Members with
these advertisers or joint venture companies.
Responses to Email Inquiries: When Visitors or Members send email
inquiries to our company, the return email address is used to answer
the email inquiry we receive. Our company does not use the return
email address for any other purpose and does not share the return
email address with any third party.
Voluntary Customer Surveys: We may periodically conduct both
business and individual customer surveys. We encourage our customers
to participate in these surveys because they provide us with
important information that helps us to improve the types of products
and services we offer and how we provide them to you. Your personal
information and responses will remain strictly confidential, even if
the survey is conducted by a third party. Participation in our
customer surveys is voluntary.
We may take the information we receive from individuals responding
to our Customer Surveys and combine (or aggregate) it with the
responses of other customers we may have, to create broader, generic
responses to the survey questions (such as gender, age, residence,
hobbies, education, employment, industry sector, or other
demographic information). We then use the aggregated information to
improve the quality of our services to you, and to develop new
services and products. This aggregated, non-personally identifying
information may be shared with third parties.
Special Cases: It is our company's policy not to use or share the
personal information about Visitors of Members in ways unrelated to
the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity
to opt out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.
However, we may
disclose personal information about Visitors or Members, or
information regarding your use of the Services or Web sites
accessible through our Services, for any reason if, in our sole
discretion, we believe that it is reasonable to do so, including:
credit agencies, collection agencies, merchant database agencies,
law enforcement, or to satisfy laws, such as the Electronic
Communications Privacy Act, the Child Online Privacy Act,
regulations, or governmental or legal requests for such information;
to disclose information that is necessary to identify, contact, or
bring legal action against someone who may be violating our
Acceptable Use Policy or Terms Of Service, or other user policies;
to operate the Services properly; or to protect our company and our
Members.

file that can be placed on your hard drive when you visit certain
Web sites. Our company may use cookies to collect, store, and
sometimes track information for statistical purposes to improve the

control use of these cookies and expressly disclaim responsibility
for information collected through them.
Our Company Commitment to Children's Privacy. Protecting children's
privacy is especially important to us. It is our policy to comply
with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 and all
other applicable laws. Therefore we restrict our Web site to persons
eighteen years or older.
YOU MUST BE EIGHTEEN (18) YEARS OR OLDER TO ACCESS THIS WEB SITE. IF

THIS WEB SITE FOR ANY REASON. DUE TO THE AGE RESTRICTIONS FOR USE OF

WITHIN THE CHILD ONLINE PRIVACY ACT (COPA) AND IS NOT MONITORED AS
DOING SO.
Public Forums: Please remember that any information you may
disclose in any Member Directory, or other public areas of our Web
sites or the Internet, becomes public information. You should
exercise caution when deciding to disclose personal information in
these public areas.
Our Company's Commitment to Data Security: Services and Web sites
we sponsor have security measures in place to protect the loss,
misuse, and alteration of the information under our control. While
we make every effort to ensure the integrity and security of our
network and systems, we cannot guarantee that our security measures
will prevent third-party "hackers" from illegally obtaining this
information.
