We care a lot about your privacy. We want you to have the best time possible on the Internet, and we want you to feel completely safe using all of the information, tools, and opportunities it has to offer.
INTRODUCTION
We get information from Visitors and Subscribers who use different parts of our Services and the network of websites that are available through our Service in a number of ways.
We made this Privacy Policy to show how serious we are about protecting your privacy and safety. This Privacy Policy explains how our company gathers information from all users of our Internet Services (the "Services"). This includes both Visitors, who use some of our Services but don't have accounts, and Subscribers, who may buy Products or pay a monthly fee to use the Services. It also explains what we do with the information we gather and what options Visitors and Subscribers have regarding the collection and use of that information. Please take the time to read this Privacy Policy.
We do everything we can to protect your personally identifiable information from being shared without your permission, but we can't promise that it will never be shared in a way that goes against this Privacy Policy.
Sign Up
When people sign up for our Products or Services, they may be asked to give us some personal information, like their name, address, phone number, billing information (like a credit card number), and the type of computer they are using to access the Services. We use the personal information we collect from Subscribers when they sign up to manage their accounts, like for billing purposes. As stated here or in special cases, this information may be shared with other people.
But if our company and a partner work together to promote our Services, we may give the partner some personal information about people who signed up for the Services as a result of the joint promotion. This information could include the person's name, address, and username. We do this so that we can offer you other products and services.
In this case, the partner can't use personal information for any other reason. We can also make profiles that don't identify people and are based on the personal information that Subscribers give us when they sign up, like the total number of Subscribers but not their names. We may use this combined and non-identifying information to sell ads that show up on the Services, as explained in more detail below.
We also give our business partners our members' contact information when they make a purchase. After that, the business partner can call the member. The business partner company collects the money from sales. We may also give other companies our Subscribers' contact information so they can send them mail offers that we think will be of interest to them, with or without payment from those companies. Sometimes we send out ads for products made by other companies. We get the money from the sales and send the buyer's information to that company.
Shopping on the Internet
You can buy things or sign up to get things like a newsletter, a catalog, or updates on new products and services on some websites. You may need to give your name, address, email address, phone number, and credit or debit card information in a lot of cases.
You might have to give the name, address, and phone number of the person who will receive the gift if you place an order for someone else, like an online gift order that goes straight to them. We can't stop third parties from using any personal information you give us when you place an order. Please be careful when you do this.
We use the personal information you give us to process your order if you order goods or services directly from us. We do give this information to other companies we work with.
Answers to Questions by Email
When visitors or subscribers email us with questions, we use the email address they used to send the question to respond.
