Privacy Policy The owners of this web site understand that many users of the internet wish to keep their personal information private. We feel the same way. That is why we have adopted a set of privacy guidelines which govern our day-to-day operations.
We use third-party advertising companies to serve ads when you visit our Web site. These companies may use aggregated information (not including your name, address, email address or telephone number) about your visits to this and other Web sites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you. If you would like more information about this practice and to know your choices about not having this information used by these companies, click here.
- Confidentiality
Information that you provide about yourself to this web site is kept in confidence. We do not and will not give, sell, lend, or otherwise distribute the names, physical addresses, e-mail addresses, or other information about our users to any third parties unless compelled by a responsible law enforcement agency that has gone through the proper legal channels.
- Restricted Release of Information to Third Parties
As stated earlier, your personal information will not be given to any third party unless you specifically request it. For example, it may be necessary to provide your mailing address to a company processing orders for merchandise purchased on this web site so it can be mailed to you.
- Computer Tracking
The management of this web site does not track users through the internet except as required to save personal settings such as a default language or login information. However, some of our advertisers and advertising companies (Google, Tribal Fusion, and others) may also occasionally set a "cookie" on your machine to determine the effectiveness of a particular advertisement or ad campaign or to deliver advertisements it believes will be of interest to you based on other sites you visit on the internet. We do not have any access to this information, or control over its use. One such cookie is the DoubleClick DART. You may opt out of the DART cookie by following this link: DART Opt Out.

This information allows us to tailor the content and style of the web site so it reaches the largest number of people possible in the best form possible. In addition, we tally the number of unique visitors who browse the web site, and also the number of pages viewed. This helps us determine what parts of the service are popular and which ones may need more attention. We haven't the time, the inclination, or the technical know-how to collect personal names, addresses, or other information from your computer.
