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.
Cookies and AdSense Third parties, such as Google AdSense, may place and read cookies on your browser, or use web beacons to collect information, while serving ads on this web site.
Here is how Google explains cookies: "A 'cookie' is a small file containing a string of characters that is sent to your computer when you visit a website. When you visit the website again, the cookie allows that site to recognize your browser. Cookies may store user preferences and other information. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some website features or services may not function properly without cookies."
Google's use of the DART cookie enables it to display ads to you based on your visit to our site and to other sites on the Internet. You may opt out of the use of the DART cookie by visiting the Google ad and content network privacy policy.
Cookies and Kontera We use third-party companies to serve ads and collect non-personally identifiable information (e.g., the pages you visit and which links you click, which ads you see and click on and the categories of search terms you enter) when you visit our web site. These companies may use the information outlined above (which does not include your name, address, email address or telephone number) about your visits to this and other web sites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you. These companies often use a cookie or third party web beacon to collect this information. If you would like more information about this practice and to know your choices about not having this information used by these companies, please visit this page: NAI universal user opt-out.
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.
Your Consent
By using our Web site you consent to our collection and use of your personal information as described in this
Privacy Policy. We reserve the right to amend this privacy policy at any time with or 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. 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.
