Privacy Policy

Our Commitment to Privacy
Our Privacy Policy was developed as an extension of our commitment to combine quality
products and services with integrity in dealing with our users. The Policy is designed to
assist you in understanding how we collect, use and safeguard the personal information
you provide to us and to assist you in making informed decisions when using our site and
our products and services.
What Information Do We Collect?
When you visit our site you may provide us with two types of information: personal
information you actively choose to disclose (“Active Information”) and Use information
collected, in a way not visible to you, on an aggregate anonymous basis as you and others
browse our site (“Passive Information”).
1. Personally Identifiable Information
This refers to information that lets us know who you are or things specifically about you.
A. Registration
we will
collect Personally Identifiable Information (such as name, address, email address, and
telephone number). This Personally Identifiable Information is securely stored and may
be accessed on our website. You are assigned an identification number and select your
own password – both are needed to enter the Site and to access your Contact Information.
B. Ordering
When you enroll as an Affiliate and/or Member, we collect Personally Identifiable
Information (such as name, contact and billing information, credit card, and other
transaction information). We use this information to deliver your order, process payment,
and to communicate with you about the status of your order.
C. Credit Card Storage
Credit card information collected at registration or for monthly subscription fees is used
only to process payment for the transaction and, generally, is not retained on our Site.
D. Surveys and Promotions
From time to time you may voluntarily provide Personally Identifiable Information to
complete surveys and questionnaires or to participate in user polls. We use this
information to improve our products and services and to ensure that we’re providing
accurate disclosures. We may also use your Personally Identifiable Information to
provide you newsletters and other marketing information that coincide with your preferences.
You may customize your marketing preferences, or let us know if you do not wish to receive any
promotional materials, by adjusting your Subscriptions & Email options on the Site.
2. Aggregate Information
This refers to information that does not, by itself, identify you as a specific individual.
Such information would include the Uniform Resource Locator (“URL”) of the website
that referred you to our Site, your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address (a number
automatically assigned to your computer whenever you surf the web), your operating
system and browser type, and any search terms that you enter on our Site. Our web server
aggregates this information in order to monitor the level of activity on our Site, evaluate
its effectiveness, and improve the content or our Site in order to make your visit an easy
and enjoyable experience.
We may collect, compile, store, publish, promote, report, or otherwise disclose or use any
Aggregate Information, provided that such information does not personally identify you.
We do not correlate any Personally Identifiable Information with the Aggregate
Information that we collect on our Site. If we do correlate any Aggregate Information to
you, it will be protected like any other Personally Identifiable Information under this
Privacy Statement.
