PRIVATE
POLICY
LAST UPDATED:
How We Protect Your
Information
We recognizes the
importance of protecting your privacy and our policy is
designed to assist you in understanding how we collect, use and
safeguard the personal information you provide to us and to
assist you in making informed decisions when using our site.
This policy will be continuously assessed against new
technologies, business practices and our customers'
needs.
What Information Do
We Collect?
When you make any purchases
from this web site, you may provide us with two types of
information: personal information you knowingly choose to
disclose that is collected on an individual basis and Web site
use information collected on an aggregate basis as you and
others browse our Web site.
Confidentiality
When you enter your name,
e-mail or any contact information on any of the pages on our
website, your information is stored internally in a private
database that no-one outside of the staff of this website have
access to.
Your information is
NEVER sold, rented or handed over
to any third-party, and is only ever used by us to send you
relevant information that you requested by e-mail.
Email
Information
If you choose to correspond
with us through email, we may retain the content of your email
messages together with your email address and our responses. We
provide the same protections for these electronic
communications that we employ in the maintenance of information
received by mail and telephone.
We HATE spam, and never,
ever give your e-mail address out to anyone... that means, you
will never receive e-mail from any other company or individual
as a result of leaving your details with us.
We guarantee that any
message received from us by e-mail will be relevant to the
pursuit of better investing performance.
And, if you ever want to
remove yourself from our list, you can do so easily and
permanently with a single click which is contained in the
footer of every outgoing e-mail message sent by us.
Web Site Use
Information
Similar to other commercial
Web sites, our Web site utilizes a standard technology called
"cookies" (see explanation below, "What Are Cookies?") and web
server log files to collect information about how our Web site
is used. Information gathered through cookies and Web server
logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed,
time spent at our Web site, and the Web sites visited just
before and just after our Web site.
How Do We Use the
Information That You Provide to Us?
Broadly speaking, we use
personal information for purposes of administering our business
activities, providing the products and services you requested,
to process your payment, to monitor the use of the service, our
marketing and promotional efforts and improve our content and
service offerings, and customize our site's content, layout,
services and for other lawful purposes. These uses improve our
site and better tailor it to meet your needs.
Furthermore, such
information may be shared with others on an aggregate basis.
Personally identifiable information or business information
will not be shared with parties except as required by
law.
Occasionally, we may also
use the information we collect to notify you about important
changes to our Website, new services, and special offers we
think you will find valuable. You may notify us at any time if
you do not wish to receive these offers by emailing us at the
link provided on the newsletter.
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.
Sharing and Selling
Information
We do not share, sell, lend
or lease any of the information that uniquely identify a
subscriber (such as email addresses or personal details) with
anyone except to the extent it is necessary to process
transactions or provide services that you have
requested.
How Can You Access
and Correct Your Information?
You may request access to
all your personally identifiable 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.
What About Other
Web Sites Linked to Our Web Site?
We are not responsible for
the practices employed by Web sites linked to or from our Web
site or the information or content contained therein. Often
links to other Web sites are provided solely as pointers to
information on topics that may be useful to the users of our
Web site.
Please remember that when
you use a link to go from our Website to another web site, our
Privacy Policy is no longer in effect. Your browsing and
interaction on any other web site, including web sites, which
have a link on our Website, is subject to that Web site's own
rules and policies. Please read over those rules and policies
before proceeding.
Your
Consent
By using our Web site you
consent to our collection and use of your personal information
as described in this Privacy Policy. We reserve the right to
amend this privacy policy at any time with or without
notice.
Our Commitment To
Data Security
Please note that your
information will be stored and processed on our computers in
the United States. The laws on holding personal data in the
United States may be less stringent than the laws of your
Country of residence or citizenship. To prevent unauthorized
access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of
information, we have put in place appropriate physical,
electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure
the information we collect online.
For accepting sensitive
information (like payment details), our website automatically
encrypts data sent between our server and your computer using
SSL technology.
This is the same level of
military-strength security employed by the world's most trusted
online retailers, and provides interception-proof data
transmission between us.
Any information you provide
to us by way of our online forms, is stored securely in an
internal, private database, that no-one has access to except
the staff of this website, and the machines that form our
network.
Payment information given
on this website is never stored internally on any of our
computers, and is handled securely by our payment
processor.
Choice/Opt-In/Opt-Out
This site allows visitors
to unsubscribe so that they will not receive future messages.
After unsubscribing we will discontinue sending the particular
messages as soon as technically feasible.
Surveys &
Contests
From time-to-time our site
requests information from users via surveys or contests.
Participation in these surveys or contests is completely
voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to
disclose this information. Information requested may include
contact information (such as name and shipping address), and
demographic information (such as zip code, age level). Contact
information will be used to notify the winners and award
prizes. Survey information will be used for purposes of
monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this
site.
A Special Note
About Children
Children are not eligible
to use our services unsupervised and we ask that children
(under the age of 14) do not submit any personal information to
us. If you are a minor, you can use this service only in
conjunction with permission and guidance from your parents or
guardians.
Acquisition or
Changes in Ownership
In the event that the web
site (or a substantial portion of its assets) is acquired, your
information would be considered part of those assets, and may
be part of those assets that are transferred.
Policy
Modifications
We may change this Privacy
Policy from time to time. If/when changes are made to this
privacy policy, we will email users who have given us
permission to do so. We will post any changes here, so be sure
to check back periodically. However, please be assured that if
the Privacy Policy changes in the future, we will not use the
personal information you have submitted to us under this
Privacy Policy in a manner that is materially inconsistent with
this Privacy Policy, without your prior consent.
Limited
Warranties
Whilst we endeavour to
ensure that the information on this website is correct, we do
not warrant its completeness or accuracy; nor do we commit to
ensuring that the website remains available or that the
material on the website is kept up-to-date.
To the maximum extent
permitted by applicable law we exclude all representations,
warranties and conditions relating to this website and the use
of this website (including, without limitation, any warranties
implied by law of satisfactory quality, fitness for purpose
and/or the use of reasonable care and skill).
