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.
Introduction
Our company collects information in different ways from Visitors and Subscribers who access
the various parts of our Services and the network of web sites accessible through our Service.
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 ("Subscribers") - what we do with the information we
collect, and the choices Visitors and Subscribers have concerning the collection and use of such
information. We request that you read this Privacy Policy carefully.
Although we take appropriate measures to safeguard against unauthorized disclosures of
information, we cannot assure you that personally identifiable information that we collect will
never be disclosed in a manner that is inconsistent with this Privacy Policy.
Registration
Subscribers 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 Subscribers during the registration process is used to
manage each Subscriber'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 do 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
Subscribers provide during registration (such as the total number, but not the names, of
Subscribers). 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 business partner company. We also may supply other companies with contact
information, for mail offers we believe would be of interest to our Subscribers, with or without
compensation from those companies.
At times we may send and advertisement for a third-party product, where we collect the sales
proceeds, and forward the purchaser's information to that third party.
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.
Responses to Email Inquirie
When Visitors or Subscribers send email inquiries to our company, the return email address
is used to answer the email inquiry we receive.
