We know that you care how your information is used,
and we appreciate your trust that we will use it carefully and sensibly.
This notice describes our privacy policy. By visiting us, you are
accepting the privacy policy described below.
1. What Personal Information Do We Collect?
- Information You Provide. We receive and store
information you enter. For example, when you subscribe, or when you
supply information such as your address, phone number or email address.
You can choose not to provide certain information, but then you might
not be able to take advantage of some of our features. We use the
information that you provide for such purposes as responding to your
requests, customising future features for you, improving our website,
and communicating with you. In addition, if you choose, we may share
your information with other companies who provide goods or services
that you are interested in. Please see the "opt-in/opt-out" selection
in Section 4 of this policy.
- Cookies. Like many websites, we use "cookies".
Cookies are small programs that we transfer to your hard drive that
allow us to recognise you and to provide you with a customised
experience. If you do not want us to use cookies, you can easily
disable them by going to the toolbar of your web browser, and clicking
on the "help" button. If you choose to disable cookies we cannot
guarantee that you will be able to log in and use the website as
expected. Follow the instructions that will prevent the browser from
accepting cookies, or set the browser to inform you when you receive a
new cookie. In addition, you may visit this and other websites
anonymously through the use of utilities provided by other private
companies.
- Other Information: Every computer has an IP
(Internet Protocol) address. IP addresses of computers used to visit
this site are noted. In addition, we automatically collect other
information such as email addresses, browser types, operating systems,
and the URL addresses of sites clicked to and from this site.
- Information from Other Sources. We might receive
information about you from other sources and add it to our account
information.
2. How Do We Use Your Information?
- Agents. We employ other companies and
individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include
processing credit card payments. They have access to personal
information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for
other purposes.
- Special Offers. We may send you special offers
from time to time, unless you choose to "opt-out" of receiving such
offers. In addition, we may also send you special offers from other
companies. Again, you may "opt-out". If we send you offers from other
businesses, we do not share your personal information with them. The
offers come directly through us. Please see the "opt-in/opt-out"
selection at the end of this policy.
- Business Transfers. As we continue to develop
our business, we might sell or buy assets. In such transactions,
customer information generally is one of the transferred business
assets. Also, in the unlikely event that we are acquired, customer
information will be one of the transferred assets.
- Law Enforcement. If we receive a lawful court
order to release account or other personal information then we will
comply with the law. We will also release information when necessary to
protect the life, safety or property of others. This includes
exchanging information with other companies and organisations for fraud
protection and credit risk reduction.
3. How Do We Protect the Security of Your
Information?
- We work to protect the security of your
information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
software, which encrypts information you input.
- We use encryption to protect your information
contained in our customer list.
- We use a firewall to protect against unlawful
intrusion.
- We limit access to your information on a "need
to know" basis.
- It is important for you to protect against
unauthorised access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to
sign off when finished using a shared computer.
- No system can guarantee absolute security, just
as the finest lock can not guarantee physical security. However, we
take every reasonable precaution to assure that your data is secure.
4. Your Choice: Opt-in or Opt-out.
It is your choice whether to receive emails or
special offers from us or others. The following section provides you
with this choice. Please note the default settings.
- * Please send me email or other mail informing
me of special offers of your products or services.
- Please do not send me email or other mail
informing me of special offers of your products or services.
- Please send me email or other mail informing me
of special offers of related products or services from other companies.
- Please do not send me email or other mail
informing me of special offers of related products or services from
other companies.

you are under 18, you may use this site only with involvement of a
parent or guardian.
6. Other Websites

guarantee that they will not share your personally identifiable
information with others. You may also wish to consult privacy guidelines
