A NOTE TO CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS (ONLINE PRIVACY PROTECTION ACT OF 2003 –OPPA)

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, 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, 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; 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.

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

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.




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 collect, archive, retrieve, and otherwise use any information collected as the

site sees fit.

Any communication which, in its sole discretion, the site deems to be a testimonial, may be publicized

for commercial purposes.




INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM VISITOR INTERACTION WITH BANNERS, POPUPS, OR SITE ADVERTISERS

Visitors clicking on banners or pop-ups or hyperlinked advertising, appearing on this website must

assume that information is being collected about them. This site is not responsible for the use of

information collected in such a fashion. Visitors must assume that (1) information will be collected,

(2) that ‘cookies’ will usually be placed on their hard drive, (3) that website does not have any

control over what happens with this information, (4) that website takes no responsibility over the

accuracy or content of advertisers, (5) that website is not responsible for downloads from third party

advertisers that contain viruses or worms or other computer code that causes their computer or software

harm, and (6) that website assumes no responsibility for the data that is garnered from the click itself

or that the advertiser collects.




INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM VOLUNTARY VISITOR, SUBSCRIBER, MEMBER OR CUSTOMER SURVEYS

Unless otherwise specified in the survey, you 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.
