Broadly speaking, we use personal

administering our business activities,

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.
