eProfitGroup Statement of Privacy
(last updated: November 2005)
NOTE;- The following relates not
only to eProfitGroup, but all sites (including this
one), businesses and products which form part of the
eProfit Group - and the following is in addition to
any statement(s) made separately on each site.
We are committed to protecting your privacy. We will
only use the information that we collect about you
lawfully
We collect information about you for 2 reasons:
firstly, to process your order and second, to provide
you with the best possible service.
We will not e-mail
you in the future unless you have given us your
consent.
We will give you the
chance to refuse any marketing email from us or from
another trader in the future.
The type of
information we will collect about you includes:
your name
address
phone number
email address
credit/debit card details
We will never collect
sensitive information about you without your explicit
consent.
The personal
information which we hold will be held securely.
We may use technology
to track the patterns of behaviour of visitors to our
site. This can include using a "cookie" which would be
stored on your browser. You can usually modify your
browser to prevent this happening. The information
collected in this way can be used to identify you
unless you modify your browser settings.
Use of Cookies
eProfitGroup may use "cookies" to help you personalize
your online experience. A cookie is a text file that
is placed on your hard disk by a Web page server.
Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver
viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely
assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server
in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a
convenience feature to save you time. For example, if
you personalize eProfitGroup's pages, or register with
eProfitGroup sites or services, a cookie helps
eProfitGroup to recall your specific information on
subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of
recording your personal information, such as billing
addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you
return to eProfitGroup, the information you previously
provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the
eProfitGroup features that you customized.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies.
Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but
you can usually modify your browser setting to decline
cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline
cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the
interactive features of the eProfitGroup services or
Web sites you visit.
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user's
computer tied to information about the user.
For the session ID cookie, once users close the
browser, the cookie simply terminates.
A persistent cookie is a small text file stored on the
user's hard drive for an extended period of time.
Persistent cookies can be removed by following
Internet browser help file directions.
You can set your browser to notify you to either
accept or deny the cookie according to the following
information.

Use of Web Beacons
eProfitGroup Web pages may contain electronic images
known as Web beacons - sometimes called single-pixel
gifs - that allow eProfitGroup to count users who have
visited those pages and to deliver co-branded
services. eProfitGroup may include web beacons in
promotional e-mail messages or eProfitGroup
Newsletters in order to count how many messages have
been opened and acted upon. Web beacons are not used
to access your personal information on the
eProfitGroup network of sites and services; they are a
technique we use to compile aggregated statistics
about eProfitGroup Web site usage.
Web beacons collect only a limited set of information
including a cookie number, time and date of a page
view, and a description of the page on which the Web
beacon resides. eProfitGroup Web pages may also
contain Web beacons placed there by our advertising
partners to help determine the effectiveness of our
Internet advertising campaigns.
Sharing Information
Legal Disclaimer
Though we make every effort to preserve user privacy,
we may need to disclose personal information when
required by law wherein we have a good-faith belief
that such action is necessary to comply with a current
judicial proceeding, a court order or legal process
served on our Web site.

At some sites, eProfitGroup collects personal

service, and to provide general statistics regarding
use of eProfitGroup.
eProfitGroup keeps track of the pages our customers
visit within eProfitGroup, in order to determine what
eProfitGroup sites and services are the most popular.
This data is also used by eProfitGroup to deliver
customized content and advertising to customers whose
behavior indicates that they are interested in a
particular subject area.
eProfitGroup encourages you to review the privacy
statements of Web sites you choose to link to from
eProfitGroup so that you can understand how those Web
sites collect, use and share your information.
eProfitGroup is not responsible for the privacy
statements or other content on Web sites outside of
the eProfitGroup and eProfitGroup family of Web sites.
Use of your Personal Information
eProfitGroup and its operational service partners
collect and use your personal information to operate
eProfitGroup and deliver the services you have
requested. eProfitGroup also uses your personal
information to inform you of other products or
services available from eProfitGroup and its
affiliates. eProfitGroup may also contact you via
surveys to conduct research about your opinion of
current services or of potential new services that may
be offered.
eProfitGroup does not sell, rent or lease its customer
lists to third parties. eProfitGroup may, from time to
time, contact you on behalf of external business
partners about a particular offering that may be of
interest to you. In those cases, your personal
information (e-mail, name, address, telephone number)
is not transferred to the third party.
We occasionally hire other companies to provide
limited services on our behalf, such as handling the
processing and delivery of mailings, providing
customer support, processing transactions, or
performing statistical analysis of our services. We
will only provide those companies the personal
information they need to deliver the service. They are
required to maintain the confidentiality of your
information and are prohibited from using that
information for any other purpose.
eProfitGroup does not use or disclose sensitive
personal information, such as race, religion, or
political affiliations, without your explicit consent.
eProfitGroup may access and/or disclose your personal
information if required to do so by law or in the good
faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a)
conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal
process served on eProfitGroup or the site; (b)
protect and defend the rights or property of
eProfitGroup, including its eProfitGroup family of Web
sites; or (c) act under exigent circumstances to
protect the personal safety of users of eProfitGroup,
its web sites, or the public.
Personal information collected on this site may be
stored and processed in any other country in which
eProfitGroup or its affiliates, subsidiaries or agents
maintain facilities, and by using this site, you
consent to any such transfer of information outside of
your country.
You may also stop the delivery of future promotional
e-mail from eProfitGroup by following the specific
instructions in the e-mail you receive. The
instructions explain how to stop receiving such
e-mails.
There are some eProfitGroup services that send out
periodic e-mails informing you of technical service
issues, product surveys, new feature announcements and
news about eProfitGroup products and services. You
will not be able to unsubscribe to these mailings, as
they are considered a part of the service you have
chosen.
Security of your Personal Information
eProfitGroup is committed to protecting the security
of your personal information. We use a variety of
security technologies and procedures to help protect
your personal information from unauthorized access,
use, or disclosure. For example, we store the personal
information you provide on computer systems with
limited access, that are located in controlled
facilities. When we transmit highly confidential
information (such as a credit card number) over the
Internet, we protect it through the use of encryption,
such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
Use of Third Party Ad Networks
The majority of the online banner advertisements you
see on eProfitGroup Web pages are displayed by
eProfitGroup.
In addition, eProfitGroup may allow other companies,
called third-party ad servers or ad networks, to
display advertisements on eProfitGroup Web pages. Some
of these ad networks may place a persistent cookie on
your computer. Doing this allows the ad network to
recognize your computer each time they send you an
online advertisement. In this way, ad networks may
compile information about where you, or others who are
using your computer, saw their advertisements and
determine which ads are clicked on. This information
allows an ad network to deliver targeted
advertisements that they believe will be of most
interest to you. eProfitGroup does not have access to
or control of the cookies that may be placed by the
third-party ad servers or ad networks.
Enforcement of this Statement of Privacy
If you have questions regarding this statement, you
should first contact eProfitGroup via e-mail.

eProfitGroup will occasionally update this Statement
of Privacy to reflect company and customer feedback.
When eProfitGroup posts changes to this Statement, you
will see the word "updated" next to the Privacy
Statement link on the front page of eProfitGroup. If
there are material changes to this Statement or in how
eProfitGroup will use your personal information,
eProfitGroup will prominently post such changes prior
to implementing the change. eProfitGroup encourages
you to periodically review this Statement to be
informed of how eProfitGroup is protecting your
information.

Statement of Privacy. If you believe that eProfitGroup
