A NOTE TO CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS (ONLINE PRIVACY PROTECTION ACT OF 2003
--OPPA)
It is the intent of this Privacy Policy to
comply with the California Act. Various
provisions of this Privacy Policy specifically
address the requirements of the act. In summary,
you must presume that we collect electronic
information from all visitors to this site. The
information we collect is usually not personally
identifiable. If you purchase a product or
service via this website (and thereby become
covered by the Act), the purchase agreement you
electronically sign prior to purchase allows the
website to collect and archive all the personal
information you provide and to transmit and/or
transfer that personal information to third
parties. There is no way you can modify this
information and you have no right to do so.
Under the terms of the purchase agreement, you
have no right to view or receive any information
about our database. In the event that the
website, under advice of counsel agrees to
divulge information, the requesting party must
submit whatever information is demanded by the
website in insure that the website is releasing
information to the correct party. Other
provisions of the OPPA may exempt this website
from complying. While we take measures to ensure
that outside parties do not have access to any
information we have about you, we do not
warranty that outside parties will not breach
our system and thus have access to your
information. (You should know that merchant
service providers do not allow us access to your
credit card information.) This Privacy Policy
also is subject to change without notice. You
are required to read it prior to using the
website. By interacting with the website you
agree to the terms and conditions of the Privacy
Policy. By using the website or purchasing a
product through this website, you waive the
right to use state or federal court systems to
address complaints and, instead, agree to use
the American Arbitration Association located in
a city and county specified herein.
ABOUT THE PERSONAL INFORMATION THIS WEBSITE COLLECTS AND HOW IT IS USED
This website routinely collects information
about its visitors, subscribers, members, users,
and customers. This information is obtained in
various ways, such as:
VISITOR, SUBSCRIBER, MEMBER, OR CUSTOMER INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM
“REGISTRATION”
Registration means that the Visitor, User,
Subscriber, Member or Customer takes active,
positive steps to communicate information to
this website. This can include pages or “pop
ups” where you register for a newsletter or
subscribe to a mailing list; it can include your
participation in visitor surveys and polls; it
can include on-line forms; it can include a
sweepstakes or contest; it can include watching
videos or listening to audio files; it can
include requesting information from the website
via email, mail, or courier; it may be from
joining an affiliate program or other membership
organization, paid or unpaid; it may be from
ordering a product. This information may include
(without limitation) your name, postal address,
zip code, email address, telephone numbers, fax
numbers, instant messaging details, other
contact information, credit card information,
gender, birth date and information about your
interests in various products or services and
programs (“Personally Identifiable
Information”).
Occasionally complete credit card information
may be provided to the website via fax or a
fill-in form rather than regular secure merchant
service processing. This information is kept at
the highest level of security and is never
divulged to anyone except the merchant service
provider or for the purpose of communication
with the customer.
ONLINE ORDERING
If any user will purchase any product or service
on this website, payment would be conducted via
PayPal (www.paypal.com)
or CC Avenue (http://www.ccavenue.com/)
Online ordering via SSL encrypted communication
provided by shopping cart services supporting
merchant service companies like Visa and Master
Card provides information to the website but
does not provide complete credit card numbers.
In the process of online ordering, the customer
provides, name, address, city, state, email
address, phone number, CVV2 (back of card)
number, and, occasionally a member password. You
should consider all this information available
to the website. This information is used to
deliver the product, but under the Purchase
Agreement you also approve its use for general
solicitation purposes.
VISITOR EMAIL INQUIRIES
Website visitors who wish to communicate with
the website do so under two conditions: one,
they give their permission for contact by the
website; two, they are subject to any
“submission” provisions of the Terms of Use,
Purchase Agreement, or this Privacy Policy.
While your email address may or may not be used
to solicit you, it is added to the website’s
general solicitation database. We reserve the
right to contact you regarding your account
status and changes to subscriber agreements,
Privacy Policy, customer service issues,
announcements of site issues or any other
policies or agreements relevant to you.
INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM ELECTRONIC MEANS AND “COOKIES”
Many websites, including this one, automatically
collect information about your computer, your
email address, your IP address, your browser and
operating system, the date and time you used the
site, the amount of time you spent on the site
and specific pages, and the URL address from
which you linked to this website. You must
assume that your web-viewing or web-use activity
is monitored, tracked, and information on your
usage is collected including which pages you
visit on the site and how long you spend on each
page. This information is not usually of a
personal nature, but it may help define your
viewing habits and product preferences even
though the website may or may not have any idea
who you are. We maintain this data in both
personally identifiable and aggregate,
collective form. We reserve the right to use
this data, either in aggregate or personal form,
for any business purpose, such as analyzing
trends and seeking compatible advertisers and
partners.
Like most websites, we employ a data collection
device called "cookies." " Cookies" is web
jargon for little bits of computer code placed
on your hard drive that allow you to interact
and communicate more efficiently with the
website. They also allow us to track your
activities on this site, including but not
limited to the advertisements and offers you
respond to. Websites use this to keep you
“logged in”, to keep track of search criteria,
to monitor use, to password protect use of the
site or use of products sold by the site.
Cookies can also be used to obtain information
about your computer configuration or your use of
your computer.
Cookies can be used to electronically gather
information about you. Again, it may or may not
be personal information, but it is information
and by using this site you are expressly giving
permission to use “cookies” and to use the
information gathered from their use to benefit
you. You also give permission to collect,
archive, retrieve, and use any information
collected for product design, product offers to
you, and general commercial solicitation
purposes by this site or joint venture partners,
affiliates, and marketing organizations.
Some of our advertisers may also send cookies to
your browser which may be saved on your
computer. We have no control over cookies placed
by our advertisers. If you don’t want to receive
cookies, you may be able to alter the settings
of your browser to reject cookies or to notify
you when one is about to be placed on your
computer. However, if you set your browser to
reject cookies, you may find that you are unable
to use certain features of the website.
CUSTOMER EMAIL OR TESTIMONIALS
If you are a customer and send an email to the
website, or if you communicate with the site by
phone or mail, the website collects information
about your communication
and by communicating with the site you give your
permission to us to collect, archive, retrieve,
publish, and otherwise use any information
collected as the site sees fit. All
information transmitted, printed, uploaded or
otherwise submitted to this website shall be
deemed to be the property of the website and its
owners/publishers who shall be free to use such
information for any lawful purpose as detailed
herein.
We reserve the right to release such information
to law enforcement or other governmental
officials as we, in our sole and absolute
discretion, deem necessary to comply with the
law. Any communication which, in its sole
discretion, the site deems to be a testimonial,
may be publicized for commercial purposes
without your express permission.

SITE ADVERTISERS

hyperlinked advertising, appearing on this
website must assume that information is being
