This privacy policy details our commitment to protect your information and the
limited manner in which we will use that information to provide and improve our
provision of the Services.
Important Terms Used Throughout This Privacy Policy
Throughout this privacy policy we use several specialized terms. "Personally
Identifiable Information" is information that tells us specifically who you
are, like your name, street address, email address, billing address, credit
card number and expiration date. "User Information" means all Personally
Identifiable Information and any other forms of information discussed in this
privacy policy, including the Internet Protocol (IP) address of a user's
computer. We use the term "aggregate" when we combine information from various
persons or users. Information is said to be "anonymized" if it does not
identify individual persons or entities or associate a particular person or
entity with such information.
Information We Collect and How We Use It
If you visit our site to browse. We will only collect and store the domain name

address of the user's computer, the user's browser software and operating
system, the date and time the user accesses the site and the Internet address
of any Web site from which the user linked directly to our site or to which the
user links after visiting our site. We use this information to measure the
number of visitors to sections of our sites, to determine from where our
visitors linked and to where our visitors link from the sites and to help us
make our sites more useful. For example, we organize and analyze IP addresses
so that we can provide efficient service, enhance security, monitor appropriate
usage and produce traffic volume statistics. This type of information is
sometimes shared with third parties, such as when we aggregate and disclose
site traffic information for marketing and commercial purposes. When we share
such information with third parties we will require them to abide by the
standards of this privacy policy.

then we collect and store information about the transaction. If you send us

We use the information we collect from you as a registered user to build
features that we hope will make the Services more attractive and easier for you
to use. This may include better customer support and timely notice of new
services. We may share User Information with our partners, affiliates and joint
venturers that are committed to serving your need for the Services and
improving your user experience, but will require such third parties to abide by
the standards of this privacy policy. We may also share aggregate anonymized
