Privacy Policy: Updated April 13, 2009
We believe that privacy and security are of major concern to online users. Therefore, we have adopted the policy below,
which discloses the privacy and security practices for our Site. The policy is designed to inform you of:
• What information we might gather from you.
• What we will do with that information.
• What benefits you may receive by our use of that information.
• How you can control the information you choose to submit on our Site.
• What protections we provide for the online privacy of children.
• How you can correct and update your Member information, opt-out of communications, or delete your information from the database.
Because we want to demonstrate our commitment to your privacy, we have agreed to disclose our information practices. If you have questions
regarding this policy, please contact us here: (link to customer service page)
Our Privacy View
We believe that strong electronic privacy is crucial for the ongoing success of the Internet as a service and as a commercial,
educational, and entertainment medium. However, we do need to understand user behavior in order to serve you better. To achieve
this goal, we need to understand what differentiates you from other unique users of the Site. We collect information in two ways:
at registration/purchase and with cookies.
Information We May Ask You to Provide at Registration/Purchase:
We gather information about our registrants that allows us to offer compelling services and easily accessible online content in a
manner that provides personal privacy protection as well. When you register or purchase from us, we request and collect personal
information including your name, address, phone, email address. This information also helps us provide content and products that
are relevant to you. It is up to you to decide whether you wish to participate in these activities and provide the required information.
We do NOT collect Social Security numbers. Credit card information, such as card numbers and expiration dates, are collected only when
purchases are made and are used for purchase transactions only. This information is used solely in the event of a commercial transaction,
and is kept as confidential information.
We may also request information about your likes, dislikes, purchasing habits, age, gender, and online activities. This information helps us deliver content and activities that are customized and relevant to your preferences. This information may be made available to our corporate sponsors in varying degrees of complexity, but only if you have given your permission for this to occur.
Along with all of our Registrants, you will receive periodic electronic-mail messages and newsletters covering such topics as the confirmation of initial Registration and/or topics related to the product of purchase.
Use of Cookies
Cookies are small bits of information that a Web site transfers to your computer's hard drive for record-keeping purposes.
Cookies make Web surfing easier by saving your registration, passwords, and preferences: they allow you to be recognized when
you return to the Site. The use of cookies is an industry-wide practice and you'll find them at most major Web sites.
Cookies help us to serve you better by improving the site. They allow us to track your interests and add content that is more relevant to you. The use of advertising cookies sent by third-party servers is standard in the Internet industry. Most Web browsers are usually set to initially accept cookies. If you prefer, you can set your browser to refuse cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. However, the site may not function properly if you do not accept cookies. Acceptance of our registration process obligates you to accept our cookies.
Collecting IP Addresses:
We collect IP addresses for the purposes of system administration and to report aggregate information to our advertisers. An IP
address is a number automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the Web. Web servers automatically identify
your computer by its IP address. When you order any one of our products from our sites, our servers log the Registrants' IP addresses.
We, in turn, use this information to track navigation through the Site and to improve the performance of your online experience.
Collecting Interests:
In general, do not collect Site Member information simply based on your interactions with our Site. However, we may make note of your
interest or disinterest in a particular subject via a simple numeric value added to your Member profile. This value indicates your
relative interest or disinterest in a particular subject when you complete specific events or activities that are meaningful to us in
understanding how to provide you with better customer support.
Sharing of Information:
We may use gathered personal information for any legally permissible purpose in the discretion of us and our third parties. Ourselves
and our third parties may sell or transfer Individual Information. Individual Information may also be shared with third parties that
provide some of the personalized content on our site and with other third parties who may provide products of interest with you. We and
our third parties may use personal information to provide promotional offers to individuals by means of email advertising, telephone
marketing, direct mail marketing, and online banner advertising, among other uses. We may update this policy from time to time.
Guidelines for Children:
We understand that children have unique privacy needs. Therefore, we have adopted a special policy to protect their privacy online,
especially children under 18 years of age. Without verifiable parental consent, we will not collect any registration information from
children we know to be under 18 years of age, nor will we send them any direct email offers. We will allow consenting parents of children
under the age of 18 to access their child's account, edit account information, and help manage their child's personal information.
We will continually review our privacy policies to ensure our compliance with the latest children's online privacy protection regulations.
We encourage parents and guardians to spend time online with their children and to participate and monitor the online activities of their
children. No information should be submitted to, or posted at, our site by a visitor under 13 years of age without the consent of the
child's parent or guardian.
