1.0 How we collect
information
1.1 User IP Address
Each time a user visits the Site,
our web server automatically recognizes the user's IP address and the
Web page from which the User came. The User's IP address is used to
help identify the User and to gather broad demographic information about
the User. We also use IP addresses collected to help diagnose problems
with our servers, to administer the Sites, and to better serve users
in using the services and features of the Sites.
1.2 Cookies and
Action Tags
The first time a user provides an
e-mail address in connection with their activities at a Site, we may
assign an identification number to that e-mail address and deploy a
cookie to the user's PC. Whenever that user comes back to a Site using
the same PC, the cookie allows the Site to identify the user and to
recall the user's e-mail address. If, at any time, a user provides other
information in connection with their activities on a Site (such as name,
address, birth date, gender, etc.), we may store that information, along
with the users e-mail address, in our user database. We may use the
information stored in our database (i) for the purpose for which the
information was originally provided by a user; (ii) to pre-populate
information fields in the event a user wishes to sign up for and/or
subscribe to services, promotions or offers in the future; (iii) to
ensure that a user will not be repeatedly exposed to the same ads, offers

regular communication with a user, including offers, promotions or advertisements
historically, or likely to be, of interest to that user.
Action Tags, Web Beacons and other
Data Collection Methods: An action tag or a web-beacon (also known as
a clear gif or a pixel tag) is a method used to track responses or actions
by visitors who view certain advertisements or other information on
a site. Action tags are 1x1 pixel images embedded in a website page
that are used to transparently collect information. We may use action
tags to count the number of times that visitors click on a particular
banner ad or visit the pages of our Sites and to provide information
about what products are viewed or purchased.
