Privacy Policy

Your privacy is very important to us. Our Privacy Policy is commitment to your privacy and security. This Privacy Policy describes how our company obtains information from all the users of our internet services (the “Services”)-those who access some of our Services but do not have accounts (”Viewers”) as well as those who may purchase Products and/or pay fees to subscribe to the Service (”Members”)-what we do with the information we collect, and the choices Viewers and Members have concerning the collection and use of such information. We advise that you read this Privacy Policy carefully.

Personal Information Obtained by Our Company

Our Company collects information in different ways from Viewers and Members who access the various parts of our network of Web sites accessible through our Service. We use this information chiefly to provide an experience as you use our Products and Services, and generally, do not share this information with third parties. However, we may disclose personal information collected if we have received your permission beforehand or in very special circumstances, such as when we believe that such disclosure is required by law or other special cases described below.

When members subscribe to our services or purchase products, they may be asked to provide certain personal information 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 is not shared with third parties, unless specifically stated otherwise or in special circumstances as follow:

I)At times when our company and a partner mutually promote our Services and/or Products, we may provide the partner with certain personal information, such as the name, address, and username of persons who subscribed to the Services as a result of the mutual promotion for the purpose of allowing us and the partner to assess the results of the promotion.  In this instance, personal information will not be used by the partner for any other purpose. We may also produce non-identifying profiles from personal information provided by registering Members (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.

II)Some products and services may be offered to Viewers and Members in conjunction with an affiliate, independent contractor, seller or non-affiliated partner. To provide Viewers and Members some of these products and services, the partner or sponsor may need to collect and maintain personal information. In these circumstances, you will be notified before any information is collected or transferred and you may decide not to use that particular service or feature.  In addition, our partners may have Web Pages that are cosponsored by an affiliate, independent contractor, seller, or non-affiliated partner. Our company may share non-identifying and aggregate information, excluding any personal information, with such partners in order to administer the cosponsored products or services offered.

III)On certain web sites, you can purchase products and services online or register to receive materials, such as a newsletter, catalog or new product and service updates online. 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 online order for someone else (i.e. presents, birthday gifts) sent directly to a recipient, you may provide information about the recipient, such as their name, address, and phone number. Our company has no control over the third parties’ use of their personal information that you provide with such an online order. Use caution care when doing so. When you order our services or products directly from our company, we will only use any personal information you provide to process that order. We do not provide this information to external parties except as needed to complete that order.

IV)Our company may publish online advertisements. In these advertisements we share aggregated, non-identifying information on our Viewers and Members obtained in the registration process as well as through online services and promotions with the advertisers. In certain cases, we use this aggregated and non-identifying information to deliver customized advertisements or joint promotions. As an example, an advertiser or promoter tells us the customer group they want to reach and provides us an advertisement customized to the audience. Based upon the aggregated and non-identifying information we have collected, we may display or send the promotion or advertisement to the specific customer group. Our company does not share personal information about its Viewers or Members with these advertisers or promoters.

V)If Viewers or Members send email inquiries to us, their email address (es) is used only to answer their inquiry. Our company never uses their email address (es) for any other purpose and does not share their email address (es) with any third party.

VI)Periodically we conduct voluntary surveys to individual customer and businesses. These surveys provide us information that helps us to improve the products and services we offer as well as how we deliver them to you. Your information and responses will remain strictly confidential when the surveys are conducted by us, an affiliate or third party. All customer surveys are voluntary. The information from the surveys will often be aggregated with our other customer surveys to create other survey questions (such as gender, age, residence, hobbies, education, employment, industry sector, or other demographic information). This aggregated information is then used in developing new products and services as well as to improve the quality of your customer experience. The non-personally identifying, aggregated information may be shared with third parties.
Our company does not and will not use or provide the personal information about Viewers of Members in ways unrelated to the circumstances described above without providing you the opportunity to opt out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.  We may, however, provide personal information about Viewers or Members, or information regarding your use of the Web sites or services accessed if, for any reason we believe it is reasonable to do so, in our sole discretion, to certain parties.  These parties include collection agencies, credit agencies, merchant database agencies, law enforcement, or to satisfy regulations or laws, such as the Electronic Communications Privacy Act, the Child Online Privacy Act, 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.
