Passive Information Collected
What is a Cookie? Cookies are a feature of web browser (Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, etc.) software that allows web servers to recognize the computer used to access a site. They are small pieces of data that are stored by a user's web browser on one site to simplify subsequent interactions with that site by the same user. Our site utilizes cookies to collect information about how our site is used. Passive Information gathered may include the date and time of visits, the site pages viewed, time spent at our site, the sites visited just before and just after our site. If you do not wish to transmit "cookie" information about yourself, you may turn off the cookie function in your web browser; please consult the "Help" section of your browser to correctly do so. Our site's servers also automatically identify your computer by its Internet Protocol address which is a unique string of numbers that is assigned to your computer by your Internet Service Provider.

How Do We Use the Information Collected?
Broadly speaking, persons we employ directly, or as contractors or agents at our direction, use Active Information for purposes of administering our business activities, providing customer services such as support, and distributing information about products and services we think may be of interest to our members from our advertiser merchants. We may use the Active Information or Passive Information you provide to us to contact you about changes to our site, new services, features or products we offer, or other information we think you shall find valuable. We use Passive Information to gather information about our visitors and to enhance and design our site to make it easier, faster and friendlier to use. Additionally, cookies help us know information about how many people visit our site, when they visit and how they use our service.

Who Do We Share Information With?
Under no circumstances do we disclose either Active or Passive Information you have provided to us with any other party, however the parties who perform services for us (credit card processors, merchant bank, our Internet Service Provider) may also have access to your information as a result of performing such services.

Sharing Information in Other Scenarios
We may be required by subpoena, law or government agency to disclose both Active and Passive Information you have provided to us, but this would be only under the most extreme circumstances.
