Introduction
Visitors and Subscribers to our services and network of websites accessible via our service are collected by our company in different ways.
This Privacy Policy is a demonstration of our commitment to privacy and safety. This Privacy Statement explains how we collect information from our end users who use our Internet Services ("Services"), including those who do not have an account but access certain Services ("Visitors") and those who pay a monthly fee or purchase Products to receive the Service ("Subscribers"); what we do with that information and the choices Subscribers and Visitors have regarding the collection and usage of this information. Please read the Privacy Policy carefully.
We take measures to protect against unauthorised disclosures, but we can't guarantee that the personally identifiable information we collect won't be used in a way that violates this Privacy Policy.
Registration
When signing up for Products or Services, Subscribers will be asked to submit certain personal information, including their name, email address, phone number, billing details (such as credit card numbers), and what type of computer they are using to access our Services. Personal information collected during the registration process will be used to manage Subscriber accounts (such as billing). As stated in this document, or under special circumstances, the information collected may be shared with other parties.
In instances where we and a partner promote our Services together, we may share certain personal information with the partner, including the name, email address and usernames of people who have subscribed to the Services in response to the joint promotion, for the purpose offering you other services and products.
The partner may not use personal information for any other purposes. We may also create non-identifying profiles and aggregate profiles using the personal information that Subscribers submit during registration (such the total number of Subscribers, but not their names). We may sell ads that appear on our Services using this non-identifying and aggregated information, as explained below.
We also provide our members' contact information to our business partners so that they can contact them by phone after their purchase. The business partner company collects the sales proceeds. With or without compensation, we may also provide other companies with our subscribers' contact information for mailing offers that we think would be interesting to them. We may occasionally send an advertisement for a product from a third-party, in which we collect sales proceeds and pass the information of the purchaser to the third-party.

Online Adverts
We may show our online ads. We may share with advertisers information collected about our visitors and subscribers through registration, online surveys and promotions.
In some cases, we also use this information for joint ventures or to create tailored advertising.

Using the collected information, we can then send or display the advertisement to the targeted audience. We do not share any personal information about our Visitors or Subscribers to these advertisers or joint-venture companies.
Email Inquiries

We may conduct periodic surveys of both individual and business customers. These surveys are important to us because they give us valuable information to help us improve our products and services.
We may combine the information that we receive when individuals respond to our Customer Surveys with responses from other customers to create a broader, more generic answer to the survey question (such as gender or age, location, hobbies, occupation, education, industry sector, etc.). The aggregated data is then used to improve our services for you and develop new products and services. These aggregated, non personally identifying data may be shared with other parties.
