COLLECTION AND USE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION:

We will not collect or retain any personal information about you (such as your name, e-mail address, telephone number, home address, credit card information and billing address) unless you provide it to us voluntarily. We may collect personal information from the Site in several ways if you so choose to provide it. Wherever we collect personal information from you online, we will make an effort to include a link to this Privacy Policy on that page. If you choose to provide it, we may also collect demographic information (such as gender or age) and information about your interests and preferences (”preferences information”).

In many cases, such demographic and preferences information is optional. In general, we may retain and use your personal, demographic or preferences information in order to fulfill transactions that you have requested, provide services for which you have subscribed, and respond to your questions or other requests. We may also use such information to improve the Site and its content, features and services, customize your experience on the Site and tailor communications from us to your interests and needs. The following provides more detail on our collection and use of your information as part of certain features of the Site:

OUR MAILING LIST:

During the course of registering on our site users may be invited to receive a free email subscription to our mailing list that we send offers, newsletters and other bulletins to on a periodic basis (collectively, the “List”) containing items that we hope will be of interest to Site Visitors. We will not send the List to Site Visitors unless they have consented to receiving it. Site Visitors may only indicate their consent to receiving the List by “opting in” which means affirmatively checking the appropriate box or clicking the appropriate link. Site Visitors must provide their email address in order to receive the List. List subscribers who wish to remove themselves from this mailing list can do so by following the link provided in every List mailing.

HOW WE SHARE PERSONAL INFORMATION:

We sometimes use other businesses to perform certain services for us, such as website hosting, e-mailing, fulfilling orders, making deliveries, sending postal mail, providing marketing assistance and data analysis, clearing and processing credit card payments, providing e-commerce services and performing other administrative services. We may provide personal information, including credit card information, to those businesses when that information is necessary for them to complete a requested transaction or otherwise perform their duties for us. We seek to impose confidentiality obligations on such service providers. We have various affiliates and subsidiaries (collectively, ” Affiliates”), and also have relationships with joint venturers, sponsors, partners, licensees and other businesses (collectively, the “Partners”).

During the course of registering on our Site, entering sweepstakes and visiting other areas of our Site, we may ask you if you would like us to share your personal information with our Affiliates and Partners in order to offer or provide you with additional information, products or services. We will not share your personal information with our Affiliates or Partners without your express consent, which you may only give by opting in to such sharing. If you expressly consent to our sharing your information with our Affiliates and Partners, then from time to time, you may receive communications from such Partners and Affiliates, such as promotional offers available from such businesses. For example, with your consent, we may share personal, demographic and preferences information that you provide in connection with sweepstakes, contests or promotions offered on the Site with our co-sponsors and promotional partners for marketing purposes. If you expressly consent to our sharing your information with our Affiliates and Partners in accordance with this Privacy Policy, you may subsequently opt out of future information sharing with such parties at any time by sending an email to us and requesting that your information no longer be shared with third parties. However, please note that opting out of future information sharing with our Affiliates and Partners will not affect their use of any information that we might have shared with them before you opted out of such sharing. We also reserve the right to disclose personal information to third parties when we believe in good faith that the law requires it, to protect our rights, property, safety, or security, or that of our partners and affiliates, Site Visitors, or the public, to respond to an emergency, or as otherwise stated in this Privacy Policy. We may also disclose information if you have given us permission to do so, for example by voluntarily entering a contest or making a purchase on our Site. Finally, we reserve the right to transfer any and all information that we collect from Site Visitors to third parties in the event that we sell or transfer substantially all of our assets related to the Site to such third party.

INFORMATION ON USE OF OUR SITE; AGGREGATE INFORMATION:

We may collect certain information about your transactions with us, our affiliates, or others, your Site usage patterns, such as the pages on the Site you have visited and the amount of time you have spent on our Site, and your response to the List. In some cases, we may link this information to personal information that you have provided to us in order to better tailor the Site and its services to your needs and preferences. We may also aggregate this type of information into general, non-personal tracking data derived by tallying and identifying users’ page views throughout our Site, depositing and tracking cookies, logging IP addresses, using “web beacons”, identifying browser type, and through other technologies (cookies and IP addresses are discussed further below). Such information enables us to better customize our content and services to users’ needs. We also use tracking data to create aggregate reports on Site Visitor demographics, Site traffic patterns, and consumer behavior. We may provide these reports to our advertisers and business partners, enabling them to better understand the demographics of our audience and target their advertisements on the Site to Site Visitors. Please be assured that these aggregate reports will not personally identify you. Cookies To enhance your experience with our Site, many of our webpages use “cookies.” In general, cookies are small text files that we place in your computer’s browser to store your preferences. These cookies do not, by themselves, tell us your e-mail address and/or other personally identifiable information unless you choose to provide this information to us by, for example, registering at our Site. If, however, you choose to furnish our Site with personally identifiable information, this information may be linked to the data stored in the cookie. In particular, we use both “session ID cookies” and “persistent cookies.” In the case of a session ID cookie, once you close your browser, the cookie terminates altogether. In contrast, a persistent cookie may be stored on your hard drive for an extended period of time.

If you would like to remove persistent cookies from your hard drive, you may do so by following Internet browser help file directions. The reason we use cookies is to understand site usage and to improve the content and offerings on our Site. For example, we may use cookies to personalize your experience at our Site (e.g., to recognize you by name when you return to our site), save your password in password-protected areas, and enable you to use shopping carts on our Site. In addition, we may also use cookies to offer you products, programs or services. You always have the option of disabling cookies using your browser preferences. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, please be aware that some features of the Site may not function properly or may be slower if you refuse cookies. You may occasionally get cookies from third parties with links on the Site. We do not control these cookies. The use of advertising cookies sent by third-party servers is standard in the Internet industry. IP Addresses An IP address is a number that’s automatically assigned to your computer whenever you’re surfing the Web. Web servers, the big computers that “serve up” Web pages, automatically identify your computer by its IP address. We collect IP addresses for purposes of system administration, to report aggregate information to our advertisers, and to track the use of the Site. When visitors request pages from our Site, our servers log the visitors’ IP addresses. Clear GIFs. We use a common technology known as a “Clear GIF” or “1-by-1 Pixel” on the Site and in e-mail communications with users. A Clear GIF, or “graphic interface format” is a small graphic (in fact, truly a 1×1 pixel) that we (or our partners) place on a page of the Site. We may also occasionally place GIFs in e-mail messages that we send to users. GIFs do not access personal information. They do provide us with important information about how users use the Site and respond to e-mail messages. With this information, we are better able to track the performance of certain promotions and understand the effectiveness of particular creative e-mail presentations. We may also allow our advertisers and promotional partners the ability to use GIFs on the Site solely to track users who link from their respective sites to this Site, but this ability to track such activity does not allow these entities access to user personal information.

SITE NOTICES:

From time to time, in our sole discretion, we may email Site Visitors important information regarding their use of the Site or changes to this Privacy Policy. You may not opt out of receiving such information. Such notices will not contain any advertising. CORRECTING INFORMATION: If you create a user profile, you may correct or update information contained in your user profile at any time online by sending an email to us. We will send you a confirmation email to verify that you are making the request. We will not update your information until you confirm the request. LEAVING OUR SITE: Please note that third parties (including, but not limited to, advertisers, our Partners and third parties providing services to us) may collect information about you, through cookies or other technologies, when you link to their websites through our Site. You acknowledge that we do not monitor or control the information collection or privacy practices of these or any other third parties, and are not responsible for their practices or the content of their websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of such third parties to understand how they collect and use information.

PUBLIC FORUMS:

We may provide chat rooms, message boards and other “public” forums on our Site for discussing various topics (collectively, the “Forums”). Please keep in mind that whenever you give out personal information on a Forum, that information can be collected and used by people you do not know. If you choose to voluntarily disclose information on a Forum, this Privacy Policy will not cover such disclosure of information. We urge you to use caution when disclosing any personal information on a Forum.

SECURITY:

Protecting the security of your personal information is very important to us. Therefore, we have taken precautions to ensure that this information is safe and secure. We maintain your profile information on a secure server. To use some features on the Site, we may require that you create a password. We recommend that you do not disclose your password to any other person. In addition, when you transmit personal information from your PC to our servers, your information is protected by both a “firewall” (a combination of computer hardware and software that helps keep unauthorized visitors from accessing information within our computer network) and industry standard SSL (secure socket layer) encryption. Once we receive your transmission, we will take reasonable precautions to ensure its security on our systems. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information and privacy, we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information you disclose or transmit to us online and cannot be responsible for the theft, destruction, or inadvertent disclosure of your personal information.

REVISIONS TO POLICY:

Please note that by using the Site, you signify your agreement to this Privacy Policy, as it may be amended from time to time. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, please do not use our Site. We reserve the right to make changes to this Privacy Policy without prior notice to you, and we may publish such changes by any reasonable means, including, without limitation, posting the amended policy on the Site. Your continued use of our Site subsequent to changes to this Privacy Policy will mean that you accept and agree to the changes.
