2. Web Site Use
Information
Similar to other commercial Web sites, our Web site utilizes a
standard technology called "cookies" (see explanation below,
"What Are Cookies?") and web server log files to collect
information about how our Web site is used. Information

It helps us learn what information people find of value on our

What Are
Cookies?
A cookie is a very small text
document, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier.
When you visit a Web site, that site's computer asks your
computer for permission to store this file in a part of your
hard drive specifically designated for cookies. Each Web site
can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser's
preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your
browser only permits a Web site to access the cookies it has
already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other
sites. Browsers are usually set to accept cookies. However, if
you would prefer not to receive cookies, you may alter the
configuration of your browser to refuse cookies. If you choose
to have your browser refuse cookies, it is possible that some
areas of our site will not function as effectively when viewed
by the users. A cookie cannot retrieve
any other data from your hard drive or pass on computer
viruses.
IP
Addresses
IP addresses are used by your
computer every time you are connected to the Internet. Your IP
address is a number that is used by computers on the network to
identify your computer. IP addresses are automatically
collected by our web server as part of demographic and profile
data known as traffic data so that data (such as the Web pages
you request) can be sent to you.
Sharing and Selling
Information
We do not share, sell,
lend or lease any of the information that uniquely identify a
subscriber (such as email addresses or personal details) with
anyone except to the extent it is necessary to process
transactions or provide services that you have
requested.
How Can You Access and Correct Your
Information?
You may request access to all
your personally identifiable information that we collect online
and maintain in our database by emailing us at the usual
address.
What About Legally
Compelled Disclosure of
Information?
We may disclose information when legally compelled to do so, in
other words, when we, in good faith, believe that the law
requires it or for the protection of our legal rights.
We may also disclose
account information when we have reason to believe that
disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact
or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our
Terms of Service or to protect the safety of our users and the
Public.
What About Other Web Sites Linked to Our
Web Site?
We are not responsible for the
practices employed by Web sites linked to or from our Web site
or the information or content contained therein. Often links to
other Web sites are provided solely as pointers to information
on topics that may be useful to the users of our Web
site.
Please remember that when you use a link to go from our Website
to another web site, our Privacy Policy is no longer in effect.
Your browsing and interaction on any other web site, including
web sites, which have a link on our Website, is subject to that
Web site's own rules and policies. Please read over those rules
and policies before proceeding.

the United States. The laws on holding personal data in the
United States may be less stringent than the laws of your
Country of residence or citizenship. To
prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure
the correct use of information, we have put in place
appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to
safeguard and secure the information we collect
online.
Acquisition or Changes in
Ownership
In the event that the web site (or a substantial portion of its
assets) is acquired, your information would be considered part
of those assets, and may be part of those assets that are
transferred.
Policy
Modifications We may change this
Privacy Policy from time to time. If/when changes are made to
this privacy policy, we will email users who have given us
permission to do so. We will post any changes here, so be sure
to check back periodically. However, please be assured that if
the Privacy Policy changes in the future, we will not use the
personal information you have submitted to us under this
Privacy Policy in a manner that is materially inconsistent with
this Privacy Policy, without your prior
consent.
Regarding the sponsored
ads by Google:
- Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve
ads on this site.
- Google's use of the DART cookie enables it to serve ads
to our users based on their visit to our sites and
other sites on the Internet.
- Users may opt out of the use of the DART cookie by
visiting the Google ad and
content network privacy policy.
Because publisher sites and laws across countries
vary, Google is unable to suggest specific privacy
policy language. However, you may wish to review resources such
as the Network
Advertising Initiative, or NAI, which suggests the
following language for data collection of non-personally
identifying information:
Google uses third-party advertising companies to serve
ads when you visit our website. These companies may use
information (not including your name, address, email
address or telephone number) about your visits to this and
other websites in order to provide advertisements about
goods and services of interest to you. If you would like
more information about this practice and would like to know
your options in relation to·not having this information
used by these companies, please visit Google's privacy
policy from their site.
You can find additional information in Appendix A of the
NAI
Self-Regulatory principles for publishers (PDF). Please
note that the NAI may change this sample language at any
time.
