policy (“Privacy Policy”) to explain what information may be collected on our Website, how we use this information,
and under what circumstances we may disclose the information to third parties. This Privacy Policy applies only to
information we collect through the Website and does not apply to our collection of information from other
sources.
This Privacy Policy, together with the Terms
of Use posted on our Website, set forth the general rules and policies governing your use of our Website. Depending
on your activities when visiting our Website, you may be required to agree to additional terms and
conditions.
We generally keep this Privacy Policy posted

Information We
Collect
Our Website typically collects two kinds of
information about you: (a) information that does not personally identify you which we automatically collect when
you visit our Website or that you provide us; (b) information collected by advertising networks.
Non-Personal Information: Our definition of
non-personal information is any information that does not personally identify you. Non-personal information can
include certain personally identifiable information that has been de-identified; that is, information that has been
rendered anonymous. We obtain non-personal information about you from information that you provide us, either
separately or together with your personally identifiable information. We also automatically collect certain
non-personal information from you when you access our Websites. This information can include, among other things,
IP addresses, the type of browser you are using (e.g., Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari, etc.), the third party
website from which your visit originated, the operating system you are using (e.g., Vista, Windows XP, Macintosh
OS, etc.), the domain name of your Internet service provider (e.g., America Online, NetZero, etc.), the specific
areas of the Website that you visit, and the duration of your visit
Advertiser Information:We allow third-party
companies to serve ads and/or collect certain anonymous information when you visit our web site. These companies
may use non-personally identifiable information (e.g., click stream information, browser type, time and date,
subject of advertisements clicked or scrolled over) during your visits to this and other Web sites in order to
provide advertisements about goods and services likely to be of greater interest to you. These companies typically
use a cookie or third party web beacon to collect this information. To learn more about this behavioral advertising
practice or to opt-out of this type of advertising, you can visit networkadvertising.org.
How We Use & Share the Information
Collected
Non-Personal Information: We use non-personal
information in a variety of ways, including to help analyze site traffic, understand customer needs and trends,
carry out targeted promotional activities, and to improve our services. We may use your non-personal information by
itself or aggregate it with information we have obtained from others. We may share your non-personal information
with our affiliated companies and third parties to achieve these objectives and others, but remember that aggregate
information is anonymous information that does not personally identify you.
Other Uses &
Information
IP Addresses: An IP address is a number that
is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you are surfing the Internet. Web servers (computers that
“serve up” web pages) automatically identify your computer by its IP address. When visitors request pages from our
Websites, our servers typically log their IP addresses. We collect IP addresses for purposes of system
administration, to report non-personal aggregate information to others, and to track the use of our Website. IP
addresses are considered non-personal information and may also be shared as provided above. We reserve the right to
use IP addresses and any personally identifiable information to identify a visitor when we feel it is necessary to
enforce compliance with our Website rules or to: (a) fulfill a government request; (b) conform with the
requirements of the law or legal process; (c) protect or defend our legal rights or property, our Website, or other
users; or (d) in an emergency to protect the health and safety of our Website’s users or the general
public.
Email Communications: If you send us an email
with questions or comments, we may use your personally identifiable information to respond to your questions or
comments, and we may save your questions or comments for future reference. For security reasons, we do not
recommend that you send non-public personal information, such as passwords, social security numbers, or bank
account information, to us by email. However, aside from our reply to such an email, it is not our standard
practice to send you email unless you request a particular service or sign up for a feature that involves email
communications, it relates to purchases you have made with us (e.g., product updates, customer support, etc.), we
are sending you information about our other services, or you consented to being contacted by email for a particular
purpose. In certain instances, we may provide you with the option to set your preferences for receiving email
communications from us; that is, agree to some communications but not others.
Other: Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, we reserve the right to disclose any personally identifiable information or non-personal information
about you if we are required to do so by law, with respect to copyright or other intellectual property infringement
claims, or if we believe that such action is necessary to: (a) fulfill a government request; (b) conform with the
requirements of the law or legal process; (c) protect or defend our legal rights or property, our Website, or other
users; or (d) in an emergency to protect the health and safety of our Website’s users or the general
public.
Public
Forums
We may offer chat rooms, blogs, message
boards, bulletin boards, or similar public forums where you and other users of our Websites can communicate. The
protections described in this Privacy Policy do not apply when you provide information (including personal
information) in connection with your use of these public forums. We may use personally identifiable information and
non-personal information about you to indentify you with a posting in a public forum. Any information you share in
a public forum is public information and may be seen or collected by anyone, including third parties that do not
adhere to our Privacy Policy. We are not responsible for events arising from the distribution of any information
you choose to publicly post or share through our Websites.
