A NOTE TO CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS (ONLINE

It is the intent of the Privacy Policy to
comply with the California Act. Various provisions throughout this Privacy
Policy address requirements of the act. In summary, you must presume that we
collect electronic information from all visitors. This is not usually
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, link submitters and customers.
This information is obtained in various ways, such as:
VISITOR, SUBSCRIBER, MEMBER, OR CUSTOMER
INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM ‘REGISTRATION' or 'SUBMISSION'
Registration means that the Visitor,
Subscriber, Member, Link Submitter 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; 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.
All persons who submit a link agree to
receive email from this Site indefinitely.
Submission Terms
While the administrators and editors of this
link directory will attempt to remove or edit any generally objectionable
material as quickly as possible, it is impossible to review every link.
Therefore you acknowledge that all links submitted to this link directory
express the views and opinions of the submitter and not the administrators,
editors or webmaster (except for posts by these people) and hence will not
be held liable.
You agree not to post any abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful,
threatening, sexually-oriented or any other links and/or material that may
violate any applicable laws. Doing so may lead to you being immediately and
permanently banned (and your service provider being informed). The IP
address of all submitted links is recorded to aid in enforcing these
conditions. You agree that the webmaster, administrator and editors of this
link directory have the right to remove, edit or move any link at any time
should they see fit. As a user you agree to any information you have entered
above being stored in a database. While this information will not be
disclosed to any third party without your consent the webmaster,
administrator and editors cannot be held responsible for any cracking
attempt that may lead to the data being compromised.
The
Submission Guidelines and Terms of Service are
incorporated herewith.

through Paypal and no personal credit card or checking account information

of the Terms of Use, Purchase Agreement, or this Privacy Policy. While your

website's general solicitation database.
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

must assume that any information provided to the website as part of a survey
in which you participate may be used for general solicitation for commercial
purposes and that such information will be shared with joint venture
partners, affiliates, marketing organization or used by the site itself for
product design or solicitation purposes.
INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM ELECTRONIC MEANS
AND ‘COOKIES'
Many websites, including this one, collect
information about your computer, your email address, your IP address. You
must assume that your web-viewing or web-use activity is monitored, tracked,
and information collected. 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.
"Cookies" is web jargon for bits of computer
code placed on your hard drive. 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.
HOW INFORMATION MAY BE USED
The use of information as described below may
or may not be how information that is collected is customarily used by this
site. While actual use of any information collected may be used quite
conservatively, you must assume that it is not. You must assume that
information collected is shared with other persons or entities for
commercial purposes. While this is uncommon in practice, you must assume
that it is as you make your decision whether or not to view or interact with
this website. This type of shared information may include your name,
address, phone number, email address and buying habits, as well as other
information. This information may be used for general commercial
solicitation by this website or other persons it is sold to, rented to, or
shared with.
INFORMATION THAT IS NOT SHARED
Credit card information or other financial
information is not usually known to the website. However, in the event that
it is made known, that information is never revealed to anyone except to
processing authorities or law enforcement agencies. However, the provider of
such information gives express permission to use it in fraud investigation
or for litigation.
A NOTE ABOUT SPAM
By providing to this website information that
forms the basis of communication with you, such as an email address, you
waive all rights to file complaints concerning unsolicited email or spam
from this website since, by providing such information, you agree to receive
communication from us or other marketing organizations. However, all email
communication with you shall contain an ‘unsubscribe' link where you may
notify the website that you no longer wish to receive solicitations or
information from the website and your name will be removed from the general
solicitation database.
DATA SECURITY
This website takes measures to protect its
data that contains information related to you. However, as a consideration
for viewing this site or interacting with this site in any manner, you waive
all claims of any nature against this site concerning the loss, alteration,
or misuse of information. You must assume that it is possible for your
personal data to be obtained by others, such as "hackers," and used in an
inappropriate manner that may cause you harm and that you agree that the
site is not responsible for damages to you.
