1. WHAT INFORMATION WE COLLECT
a. Anonymous Traffic Data. Whenever you access any web site, your web browser transmits some information to the server hosting the web site. We may automatically collect, track and log this anonymous traffic data when you use the Web Site. “Anonymous traffic data” means information that does not personally identify you. For example, we may collect information concerning the number of visitors to our Web site each day, what time of day visitors access our Web site, which pages these visitors view, which Internet service providers (ISPs) these visitors use and what search terms visitors use with our Web site’s search feature. We are not able to tie any of this information to specific individuals. Anonymous traffic data is helpful for marketing, improving, administering and analyzing usage of the Web Site.
b. Personal Information. In order for you to use some services offered by the Web Site, we require that you provide us personal information about yourself. We ask for personal information because it allows us to provide a personalized service to you, such as e-mailing to you specific information that you request.
Personal information may include, for example: (a) Contact Data (such as your name, birth date, gender, mailing and e-mail addresses, and phone and fax numbers), (b) Financial Data (such as your credit card number), and (c) Demographic Data (such as your ZIP Code, age and income). If you communicate with us by e-mail, post messages to any chat groups, bulletin boards or forums that we may have, complete any online forms, surveys or contest entries, or purchase any goods or services, any information provided by you may be collected as personal information. We only have access to and know personal information, however, if you choose to disclose it to us when you register for a service.
Also, sometimes our partners and advertisers may request that you disclose personal information. For example, if you make a purchase from a third party on a page hosted on the Web Site, you may be providing your personal information to the third party. The owner of the Web Site (the “Owner”), however, does not control this personal information, and it is not subject to this Web Site Privacy policy. You are encouraged to review the third party’s privacy policy before you disclose any personal information to them.
c. Cookies. A “cookie” is a small text file sent from our server to the hard drive of your computer when you first use the Web Site. When you revisit the Web Site, the cookie allows us to recognize that your web browser is accessing the site. We use cookies to record information so that you do not have to re-register to use the services offered by the Web Site, and to track and log usage of the Web Site. Also, sometimes you may receive cookies from our partners and advertisers; however, we do not control these cookies, and they are not subject to this Web Site Privacy policy. We recommend that you review the privacy policies of our partners and advertisers to learn how they use cookies. Please review the “help” information provided by your browser to learn how to disable cookies or monitor when you are receiving them.

We use reasonable efforts to secure your personal information but cannot guarantee that no unauthorized third party will gain access to your personal information.
