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.

How Do We Use Information We Collect from Cookies?

As you visit and browse our Web site, the site uses cookies to differentiate you from other users.

In some cases, we also use cookies to prevent you from having to log in more than is necessary for

security. Cookies, in conjunction with our Web server's log files, allow us to calculate the aggregate

number of people visiting our Web site and which parts of the site are most popular. This helps us

gather feedback to constantly improve our Web site and better serve our clients. Cookies do not allow

us to gather any personal information about you and we do not intentionally store any personal

information that your browser provided to us in your cookies.

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.

process transactions or provide services that you have requested.

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.

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.

without notice.

Our Commitment To Data Security:

Please note that your information will be stored and processed on our computers in 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.

Choice/Opt-In/Opt-Out

This site allows visitors to unsubscribe so that they will not receive future messages. After

unsubscribing we will discontinue sending the particular messages as soon as technically feasible.

Surveys & Contests

From time-to-time our site requests information from users via surveys or contests. Participation in

these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or

not to disclose this information. Information requested may include contact information (such as name

will be used to notify the winners and award prizes. Survey information will be used for purposes of

monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site.

(under the age of 14) do not submit any personal information to us. If you are a minor, you can use

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.
