PRIVACY POLICY

Your privacy is very important to us. We want to make your experience on the
Internet as enjoyable and rewarding as possible, and we want you to use the
Internet’s vast array of information, tools, and opportunities with complete
confidence.

We have created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our firm commitment to
privacy and security. This Privacy Policy describes how our company collects
information from all end users of our Internet services (the “Services”)-those who
access some of our Services but do not have accounts (“Visitors”) as well as those
who may purchase Products -what we do with the information we collect, and the
choices Visitors have concerning the collection and use of such information. We
request that you read this Privacy Policy carefully.

Personal Information Our Company Collects and How It Is Used
Introduction. Our company collects information in different ways from Visitors
who access the various parts of our Services and the network of Web sites
accessible through our Service.

Registration: Members may be asked to provide certain personal information
when they sign up for our Products or Services including name, address,
telephone number, billing information (such as a credit card number), and the
type of personal computer being used to access the Services. The personal
information collected from Members during the registration process is used to
manage each Member’s account (such as for billing purposes). This information
may be shared with third parties, as stated herein, or in special circumstances.
However, in instances where our company and a partner jointly promote our
Services, we may provide the partner certain personal information, such as the
name, address, and username of persons who subscribed to the Services as a
result of the joint promotion for the purpose of offering you other products and
services.

In this instance, personal information may not be used by the partner for any
other purpose. We may also generate non-identifying and aggregate profiles from
personal information Members provide during registration (such as the total
number, but not the names, of Members). As explained in more detail below, we
may use this aggregated and non-identifying information to sell advertisements
that appear on the Services.

Also, with purchases, we supply our member’s contact information, to our
business partners, who then may contact the member by telephone after the
member purchase. Sales proceeds are collected by the that business partner
company. We also may supply other companies with contact information, for mail
offers we believe would be of interest to our members, with or without
compensation from those companies. At times we may send an advertisement for
a third party product, where we collect the sales proceeds, and forward the
purchaser’s information to that third party.

Our Company Partners and Sponsors: Some products and services may be offered
to Visitors and Members in conjunction with an affiliate, independent contractor
seller or non-affiliated partner. To provide Visitors and Members some of these
products and services, the partner may need to collect and maintain personal
information.

Online Shopping: At some Web sites, you can purchase products and services or
register to receive materials, such as a newsletter, catalog or new product and
service updates. In many cases, you may be asked to provide contact information,
such as your name, address, email address, phone number, and credit/debit card
information.

If you complete an order for someone else, such as an online gift order sent
directly to a recipient, you may be asked to provide information about the
recipient, such as the recipient’s name, address, and phone number. Our
company has no control over the third parties’ use of any personal information
you provide when placing such an order. Please exercise care when doing so.

If you order services or products directly from our company, we use the personal
information you provide to process that order. We do share this information with
outside parties that we do business with.

Online Advertisements: Our company may display our online advertisements. In
those cases we share information about our Visitors and Members collected
through the registration process as well as through online surveys and
promotions with these advertisers.

Additionally, in some instances, we use this information to deliver tailored
advertisements or joint ventures. For instance, an advertiser or joint venture
company tells us the audience they want to reach and provides us an
advertisement tailored to the audience. Based upon the information we have
collected, we may then display or send the advertisement to the intended
audience. Our company does share personal information about its Visitors or
Members with these advertisers or joint venture companies.

Responses to Email Inquiries: When Visitors or Members send email inquiries to
our company, the return email address is used to answer the email inquiry we
receive.

Voluntary Customer Surveys: We may periodically conduct both business and
individual customer surveys. We encourage our customers to participate in these
surveys because they provide us with important information that helps us to
improve the types of products and services we offer and how we provide them to
you.

We may take the information we receive from individuals responding to our
Customer Surveys and combine (or aggregate) it with the responses of other
customers we may have, to create broader, generic responses to the survey
questions (such as gender, age, residence, hobbies, education, employment,
industry sector, or other demographic information). We then use the aggregated
information to improve the quality of our services to you, and to develop new
services and products. This aggregated, non-personally identifying information
may be shared with third parties.

Promotions: Our company may offer polls, contests, sweepstakes, drawings,
games, content, or other promotions that are sponsored by or cobranded with
third parties. You may be entered in a sweepstakes, contest, or other promotion,
simply by making a purchase from us or by providing us with personally
identifiable information for some other reason or purpose. Due to these third
party relationships, the third parties may obtain personally identifiable
information that visitors voluntarily submit to our company. Our company has no
control over third parties’ use of this information.

Additionally, personally identifiable information may be collected when you order
products, enter contests, vote in polls or otherwise express an opinion, subscribe
to one of our services such as our online newsletters, or participate in one of our
online forums or communities. The types of personally identifiable information
that may be collected at these pages include but may not be limited to: name,
address, e-mail address, telephone number, fax number, credit card information,
and information about your interests in and use of various products, programs,
and services. Our sponsors or third parties may send you material that relates to
our company’s services, products or activities.

Special Cases: It is our company’s policy to use or share the personal information
about Visitors or Members in ways described herein without additional notice or
means to opt out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.

Also, we may disclose personal information about Visitors or Members, or
information regarding your use of the Services or Web sites accessible through
our Services, for any reason if, in our sole discretion, we believe that it is
reasonable to do so, including: credit agencies, collection agencies, merchant
database agencies, law enforcement, or to satisfy laws, such as the Electronic
Communications Privacy Act, the Child Online Privacy Act, regulations, or
governmental or legal requests for such information; to disclose information that
is necessary to identify, contact, or bring legal action against someone who may
be violating our Acceptable Use Policy or Terms Of Service, or other user policies;
to operate the Services properly; or to protect our company and our Members.
