Personal Details – How Our Business Collects Them and How They Are Used

Our business gathers details in several different ways from Guests and Participants who visit different parts of our Content and the various Web sites that are linked through our Content.

Registration: Participants might be required to enter pieces of personal details when they sign up for the Products and Content on this site. These personal details may include, but is not limited to, name, address, telephone number, billing details (credit card number) and details about the computer they are using to access the Internet and the website.

In instances where the website and a partner jointly promote the Content of this website, we may on occasion provide personal details of our Participants with the partner. These details can include the name, address and username of people who have subscribed with the Content as a direct result of the joint promotion. This is done for the purpose of offering a product or service that is related to the Content of this site.

In this instance, we do not release personal details to the partner for any other reason. This site may also create non-identifying and aggregate profiles from the personal details of Participants, based on the details provided during the registration of the member. For example, this site may share the total number of Participants, without names or identifying details. This is explained in more detail below and its role in selling advertisements that will appear in the Content section of the website.

In addition, with purchases, we will provide the member’s contact details to business partners. These partners will use these details to contact the member by phone after the purchase to complete the transaction and collect the sales proceeds. We may also supply companies with some contact details in order for Participants to receive mail offers that are in line with their preferences and that our business believes that will be of interest to Participants. We may also send an advertisement for a third party product. In this case, we will collect sales proceeds from Participants and then transfer the details to the third part for a completion of the transaction.
