PRIVACY POLICY
Your privacy is very important to us. We want to make your experience
on the Internet as enjoyable and rewarding as possible, and we want you
to use the Internet's vast array of information, tools, and
opportunities 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.
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 may be shared with third parties, as stated herein, 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 purpose of
offering you other products and services.
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.
Also, with purchases, we supply our member's contact information, to
our business partners, who then may contact the member by telephone
after the member purchase. Sales proceeds are collected by the that
business partner company. We also may supply other companies with
contact information, for mail offers we believe would be of interest to
our members, with or without compensation from those companies. At
times we may send an advertisement for a third party product, where we
collect the sales proceeds, and forward the purchaser's information to
that third party.
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.
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 use the personal information you provide to
process that order. We do share this information with outside parties
that we do business with.
Online Advertisements: Our company may display our online
advertisements. In those cases we share 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 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
information we have collected, we may then display or send the
advertisement to the intended audience. Our company does 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.
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.
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
to use or share the personal information about Visitors or Members in
ways described herein without additional notice or means to opt out or
otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.
Also, 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.
