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
IP addresses are used by your computer every time you
are connected to the Internet. Your IP address is a
number that is used by computers on the network to identify
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.

We do not share, sell, lend or lease
any of the information that uniquely identify a subscriber

except to the extent it is necessary to process transactions
or provide services that you have requested.

information that we collect online and maintain in our
database by emailing us at the usual address.
What About Legally Compelled Disclosure of
Information?
We may disclose information when legally 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.
