This
site strives to offer its visitors the many advantages of Internet
technology and to provide an interactive and personalized experience.
We may use Personally Identifiable Information (your name, e-mail
address) subject to the terms of this privacy policy. We will never
sell, barter, or rent your email address to any unauthorized third
party. Period."
How we gather information from users
How
we collect and store information depends on the page you are visiting,
the activities in which you elect to participate and the services
provided. For example, you may be asked to provide information when you
register for access to certain portions of our site or request certain
features, such as newsletters or when you make a purchase. You may
provide information when you participate in sweepstakes and contests,
message boards and chat rooms, and other interactive areas of our site.
Like most Web sites, our company also collects information
automatically and through the use of electronic tools that may be
transparent to our visitors. For example, we may log the name of your
Internet Service Provider or use cookie technology to recognize you and
hold information from your visit. Among other things, the cookie may
store your user name and password, sparing you from having to re-enter
that information each time you visit, or may control the number of
times you encounter a particular advertisement while visiting our site.
As we adopt additional technology, we may also gather information
through other means. In certain cases, you can choose not to provide us
with information, for example by setting your browser to refuse to
accept cookies, but if you do you may be unable to access certain
portions of the site or may be asked to re-enter your user name and
password, and we may not be able to customize the site’s features
according to your preferences.
What we do with the information we collect
Like
other Web publishers, we collect information to enhance your visit and
deliver more individualized content and advertising. We respect your
privacy and do not share your information with anyone.
Aggregated
Information (information that does not personally identify you) may be
used in many ways. For example, we may combine information about your
usage patterns with similar information obtained from other users to
help enhance our site and services (e.g., to learn which pages are
visited most or what features are most attractive). Aggregated
Information may occasionally be shared with our advertisers and
business partners. Again, this information does not include any
Personally Identifiable Information about you or allow anyone to
identify you individually.
We may use Personally
Identifiable Information collected on this site to communicate with you
about your registration and customization preferences; our Terms of
Service and privacy policy; services and products offered by this site
and other topics we think you might find of interest.
Personally
Identifiable Information collected by this site may also be used for
other purposes, including but not limited to site administration,
troubleshooting, processing of e-commerce transactions, administration
of sweepstakes and contests, and other communications with you. Certain
third parties who provide technical support for the operation of our
site (our Web hosting service for example) may access such information.
We will use your information only as permitted by law. In addition,
from time to time as we continue to develop our business, we may sell,
buy, merge or partner with other companies or businesses. In such
transactions, user information may be among the transferred assets. We
may also disclose your information in response to a court order, at
other times when we believe we are reasonably required to do so by law,
in connection with the collection of amounts you may owe to us, and/or
to law enforcement authorities whenever we deem it appropriate or
necessary. Please note we may not provide you with notice prior to
disclosure in such cases.
Affiliated sites, linked sites and advertisements
This
site expects its partners, advertisers and affiliates to respect the
privacy of our users. Be aware, however, that third parties, including
our partners, advertisers, affiliates and other content providers
accessible through our site, may have their own privacy and data
collection policies and practices. For example, during your visit to
our site you may link to, or view as part of a frame of content that is
actually created or hosted by a third party. Also, through our company
web sites you may be introduced to, or be able to access, information,
Web sites, features, contests or sweepstakes offered by other parties.
This site is not responsible for the actions or policies of such third
parties. You should check the applicable privacy policies of those
third parties when providing information on a feature or page operated
by a third party.
While on our site, our
advertisers, promotional partners or other third parties may use
cookies or other technology to attempt to identify some of your
preferences or retrieve information about you. For example, some of our
advertising is served by third parties and may include cookies that
enable the advertiser to determine whether you have seen a particular
advertisement before. Other features available on our site may offer
services operated by third parties and may use cookies or other
technology to gather information. This site does not control the use of
this technology by third parties or the resulting information, and is
not responsible for any actions or policies of such third parties.
You
should also be aware that if you voluntarily disclose Personally
Identifiable Information on message boards or in chat areas, that
information can be viewed publicly and can be collected and used by
third parties without our knowledge and may result in unsolicited
messages from other individuals or third parties. Such activities are
beyond the control of this site and this policy.
Children
This
site does not knowingly collect or solicit Personally Identifiable
Information from or about children under 13 except as permitted by law.
If we discover we have received any information from a child under 13
in violation of this policy, we will delete that information
immediately. If you believe this site has any information from or about
anyone under 13, please contact us at the address listed below.

We
reserve the right to change this policy at any time. Please check this
page periodically for changes. Your continued use of our site following
the posting of changes to these terms will mean you accept those
changes. Information collected prior to the time any change is posted
will be used according to the rules and laws that applied at the time
the information was collected.
