10. Security
This website takes every precaution to protect our users' information. When users submit sensitive information via the website, your information is protected both online and off-line. When our registration and or sales forms asks users to enter sensitive information (such as credit card number), that information is encrypted and protected using SSL. While on a secure page, such as our sales form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, when you are just 'surfing'. To learn more about SSL, follow this link http://www.ssl.com

While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also protect user-information off-line. All of our users' information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices and at our collocation sites. Only staff who need the information to perform a specific job (for example, our billing clerk or a customer service representative) are granted access to personally identifiable information. Our staff that access sensitive information must do so in a specific period of time or their access "times-out" and is terminated. They must re-enter their password to re-gain access to your information. Furthermore, ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy practices. Every quarter, as well as any time new policies are added, our employees are notified and/or reminded about the importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to ensure our customers' information is protected. Finally, the servers that we store personally identifiable information on are kept in a securely locked environment. If you have any questions about the security at our website, you can send an email to us via the Contact Us section of this web site.

11. Special Offers
We send all new members a welcoming email to verify password and username. Established members will occasionally receive information on products, services, special deals, and a newsletter. Out of respect for the privacy of our users we present the option to not receive these types of communications. Refer to "Choice/Opt-out" below.

12. Site and Service Updates
We also send the user site and service announcement updates. Members are not able to un-subscribe from service announcements, which contain important information about service delivery. We communicate with the user to provide requested services and in regards to issues relating to their account via email or phone.

13. Correction/Updating Personal Information:
If a user's personally identifiable information changes such as address we provide a way for that user to correct their personal data provided to us. This can be done by emailing us via the Contact Us section of our web site.

14. Choice/Opt-in
Our users are given the opportunity to 'opt-in' / 'opt-out' of having their information used for purposes not directly related to sales via our site at the point where we ask for the information. For example, our registration form has an 'opt-in' mechanism so users who buy a product from us, but don't want any marketing material, can exclude their email address from our promotions lists.

Users who no longer wish to receive our newsletter or promotional materials may opt-out of receiving these communications by emailing us via the Contact Us section of this web site.

Users of our site will be notified should their information be required to be collected by any outside parties. We do this so our users can make an informed choice as to whether they should proceed with services that require an outside party, or not.

15. Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post a link to those changes on our Homepage so our users are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users by way of an email. Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their information in this different manner. We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy under which the information was collected.
