Last Updated: May 25, 2009
Our website 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, street address, telephone number) subject to the
terms of this Privacy Policy. We will never sell, barter,
or rent your email address to any unauthorized third
party.
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 sites, we 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 our site or may be asked to re-enter
your user name and password, and we may not be able to
customize our 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 our site to communicate with you about
your registration and customization preferences; our
Terms of Service and Privacy Policy; services and
products offered by our site and other topics we think
you might find of interest.
Personally Identifiable Information collected by
our 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
Our 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 on our site page, certain
content that is actually created or hosted by a third
party.
Also, through our site you may be
introduced to, or be able to access, information, Web
sites, features, contests or sweepstakes offered by other
parties. our 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. our 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 our site and
this policy.
Children’s Privacy
Our site does not knowingly collect
personal information from children under the age of 13.
If we learn that we have personal information on a child
under the age of 13, we will delete that information from
our systems. Our site encourages parents to go
online with their kids.
Here are a few tips to help make a child's
online experience safer:
- Teach kids never to
give personal information, unless supervised by a parent or
responsible adult. Includes name, address, phone, school,
etc.
- Know the sites your
kids are visiting and which sites are
appropriate.
- Look for Web site
privacy policies. Know how your child's information is
treated.
- Check out the FTC's site <
http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/edcams/kidzprivacy/index.html> for more tips on protecting children's
privacy online.

collected.
