This type of aggregate data enables us to figure out how often users access parts of the Site so that we can improve the Site and the Content. This information may be shared with advertisers and other third parties on an aggregated basis, but it does not indicate the Personal Data of individual users.

   2. We collect your computer’s IP addresses in order to conduct system administration, report aggregate information to third parties and to conduct Site analysis.

8. External Links: Our Site may provide links to various third party web sites which are provided solely for your convenience. However, even if a third-party affiliation exists between the Site and that destination site, we do not exercise authority over these linked sites, each of which maintains independent privacy and data collection policies and procedures. We do not assume responsibility or liability for these independent methods or actions and are not responsible for the independent policies or procedures of destination sites. Similarly, we cannot take responsibility for the privacy initiatives or the content of such web sites. These links to third party web sites are provided only for your convenience, and as such, you access them at your own risk. However, we wish to ensure the integrity of the Site and its destination links, so any comments pertaining to the Site or any Sites accessed through these links are greatly appreciated.
   
   
9. Exclusions: This Privacy Policy does not apply to any Personal Data collected by the Company other than Personal Data collected through the Site. This Privacy Policy shall not apply to any Unsolicited Information or other commentary or content you provide to the Company through this Site or through any other means. This includes, but is not limited to, information posted or requested to be posted to any public areas of the Site, such as the forum and blog sections. Except as otherwise provided in the Terms and Conditions, all such Unsolicited Information and user posted content shall be deemed to be non-confidential and you hereby authorize and grant to Company the non-exclusive, worldwide, irrevocable, unlimited, perpetual, royalty-free right and license to reproduce, use, disclose, and distribute and republish such information to others without limitation or attribution.
   
   
10. Security: We employ reasonable security measures in place to protect against the theft, misuse and alteration of the Personal Data under our control. Personal Data is stored in a secured database, excluding your credit card information which is only stored until your order has been processed... Industry-standard Secure Sockets Layer ("SSL") authentication is used to increase the likelihood of confidentiality and security of online transactions made on the Site. SSL authentication and encryption of the information that you send to us over the Internet help protect your online transaction information from being intercepted by a third party. Additional safeguards include the limited and partial display (last four digits only) of your credit card number to authorized Company personnel.
    
    You may also help safeguard your Personal Data by taking necessary precautions. We recommend that you never disclose your account password to any person(s) nor transmit such information in an email or other correspondence or telephone calls. We will never ask you for your password except that our technology will require such information when you log into your account.
    
    Unfortunately however, given the nature of the Internet, we are unable to completely eliminate any possibility of risk. We are therefore unable to guarantee that the information you transmit is safe from interception and as such, you transmit all information at your own risk.
    
    
11. Choice/Opt-Out: Our Site gives users the opportunity to opt-out to receive communications from us and our third party advertisers at the point where we request information about the user.
