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.

IP addresses are used by your computer every
time you are connected to the Internet. Your IP address is a

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.

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.

proceeding.

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.

demographic information (such as zip code, age level).

award prizes. Survey information will be used for purposes
of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this
site.

substantial portion of its assets) is acquired, your

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.
