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 gathered through cookies and Web server logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at
our Web site, and the Web sites visited just before and just after our Web site.
How Do We Use the
Information That You Provide to Us? Broadly speaking, we use personal information for purposes of administering our business
activities, providing the products and services you requested, to process your payment, to monitor the use of the service, for our marketing and promotional efforts and to improve our content and
service offerings, and to customize our site's content, layout, services and for other lawful purposes. These uses improve our site and better tailor it to meet your needs.
Furthermore, such information may be shared with others on an aggregate

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.
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.

DAMAGES OR BOTH. EXCEPTION: CERTAIN STATE LAWS MAY NOT ALLOW US TO LIMIT OR EXCLUDE LIABILITY FOR THESE "INCIDENTAL" OR
"CONSEQUENTIAL" DAMAGES. IF YOU LIVE IN ONE OF THOSE STATES, THE ABOVE LIMITATION OBVIOUSLY WOULD NOT APPLY WHICH WOULD
MEAN THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE THE RIGHT TO RECOVER THESE TYPES OF DAMAGES. HOWEVER, IN ANY EVENT, OUR LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL

CLAIMED TO BE CAUSED BY NEGLIGENCE OR OTHER WRONGFUL CONDUCT, OR THEY'RE CLAIMED UNDER ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY) WILL NOT BE
GREATER THAN THE AMOUNT YOU PAID, IF ANYTHING, TO ACCESS OUR SITE.

licensors, subsidiaries and other affiliated companies, and their employees, contractors, officers, agents and directors from all
liabilities, claims, and expenses, including attorney's fees, that arise from your use of this site, or any services, information

exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which event you shall cooperate
with Licensor in asserting any available defenses.

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 and
shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code, age level). Contact information 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.
A Special Note
About Children. Children are not eligible to use our
services unsupervised and we ask that children (under the age of 14) do not submit any personal information to us. If you are a minor, you
can use this service only in conjunction with permission and guidance from your parents or guardians.
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.
