PRIVACY POLICY
THE INFORMATION COLLECTION, USE AND DISSEMINATION PRACTICES OF Lions Bay Media. 1. Collection of Information. 1.1 Survey Information.
1.2 Site Membership or Registration. To the extent registration is required to receive email and possibly postal communications from Lions Bay Media, this Privacy Policy also applies to consumers that have agreed
to receive
e-mail marketing from Lions Bay Media, whether at our Website, via email, on Third Party websites or otherwise. We collect information in certain portions of our Website, where guests provide
content
submissions and suggestions or participate in interactive online activities (i.e., by way of responding to questions and surveys, community listings, ratings, searches and comparison searches,
bidding, purchasing, chat, games, or bulletin boards, etc.). The personal profile information you submit to Lions Bay Media remains your property, but by submitting that information to Lions
Bay Media,
you grant
Lions Bay Media, the right to use that information for marketing purposes. Lions Bay Media may also use such information for content improvement and feedback purposes. We may sell the
personal
information that
you supply to us and we may join together with other businesses to bring selected retail opportunities to our members. These businesses may include providers of direct marketing services and
applications, including lookup and reference, data enhancement, suppression and validation. In addition, Lions Bay Media reserves the right to release current or past member information in the event
Lions Bay Media
believes that the membership is being or has been used in violation of the Rules or to commit unlawful acts, if the information is subpoenaed, if Lions Bay Media is sold or acquired, or when Lions
Bay Media
deems it
necessary or appropriate. By agreeing to these terms, you hereby consent to disclosure of any record or communication to any Third Party when Lions Bay Media, in its sole discretion,
determines the disclosure to be appropriate. 1.3 Third Party List Information. Lions Bay Media collects information from individuals when an individual provides information to a Third Party and Lions Bay Media subsequently purchases, licenses, or otherwise
acquires
the
information from the Third Party (the "Seller"). Such purchased information may include, but is not limited to, an individual's name, email address, street address, zip code,
telephone numbers (including cell phone numbers and carriers), birth date, gender, salary range, education and marital status, occupation, industry of employment, personal and online interests, and
such other information as the individual may have provided to the Seller (together, "Third Party List Information"). When acquiring Third Party List Information, Lions Bay Media seeks
assurances from
the Seller that the Seller has a right to transfer the Third Party List Information to Lions Bay Media and that the Seller has a right to provide offers from Advertisers to the individuals whose
personal information is included on the Seller's list. 1.4 Other Information. Other occasions when Lions Bay Media obtains information from individuals include (1) when an individual is making a claim for a prize or seeking to redeem an incentive offered
by Lions Bay Media or
by a Third Party, (2) when an individual requests assistance through Lions Bay Media’S customer service department, and (3) when an individual voluntarily subscribes to a Lions Bay Media
service or
newsletter (together, "Other Information"). 1.5 Cookies, Web Beacons, and Other Info Collected Using Technology. Lions Bay Media currently uses cookie and web beacon technology to associate certain Internet-related information about an individual with information about the individual in
our database. Additionally, Lions Bay Media may use other new and evolving sources of information in the future (together, "Technology Information"). (a) Cookies. A cookie is a small amount of data stored on the hard drive of the individual's computer that allows Lions Bay Media to identify the individual with his or her corresponding
data that
resides in Lions Bay Media’S database. You may read more about cookies at http://cookiecentral.com. Individuals who use the Websites need to accept cookies in order to use all of
the features and functionality of the Websites. (b) Web Beacons. A web beacon is programming code that can be used to display an image on a web page (by using an <img src="x"> programming function -- see http://truste.org for
more information), but can also be used to transfer an individual's unique user identification (often in the form of a cookie) to a database and associate the individual with previously acquired
information about an individual in a database. This allows Lions Bay Media to track certain websites an individual visits online. Web beacons are used to determine products or services
an individual
may be interested in, and to track online behavioral habits for marketing purposes. For example, Lions Bay Media might place, with the consent of a Third Party website, a web beacon on the
Third Party's
website where cosmetics are sold. When Jane, an individual listed in Lions Bay Media’S database, visits the cosmetic website, Lions Bay Media receives notice by means of the web beacon
that Jane
visited the
cosmetics site, and Lions Bay Media would then update Jane’s profile with the information that Jane is interested in cosmetics. Lions Bay Media may thereafter present offers of cosmetic
related
products and services to Jane. In addition to using web beacons on web pages, Lions Bay Media also uses web beacons in email messages sent to individuals listed in Lions Bay Media’S
database. (c) New Technology. The use of technology on the Internet, including cookies and web beacons, is rapidly evolving, as is Lions Bay Media’S use of new and evolving technology. As a
result, Lions Bay Media strongly encourages individuals to revisit this policy for any updates regarding its use of technology. (d) Usage Tracking. Lions Bay Media tracks information related to the electronic mailings and web pages viewed by users and subscribers, as well as the hyperlinks clicked by subscribers, while
viewing our emails or visiting our websites. (e) Log Files. Log files are used to track and monitor subscriber usage. (f) Optional Registration. Lions Bay Media may offer free voluntary registration to potential subscribers. During such registration, the subscriber is required to supply an email address and other
personal information. This information is required if the subscriber wants to participate in Company services. (g) Feedback and Inquiries. You have the ability to contact Lions Bay Media to provide us with their feedback. Lions Bay Media uses this information to respond to you and analyze customer service
issues. 1.6 Outside Information. Lions Bay Media may receive information about individuals from Third Parties or from other sources of information outside of Lions Bay Media including information located in
public
databases ("Outside Information"). 1.7 Individual Information. As used herein, Individual Information means Survey Information, Third Party List Information, Other Information, Technology Information, and Outside Information, and any other
information Lions Bay Media gathers or receives about individuals. 1.8 No Information Collected from Children. Lions Bay Media will never knowingly collect any personal information about children under the age of 18. If Lions Bay Media obtains actual knowledge that it has collected
personal
information
about a child under the age of 18, that information will be immediately deleted from our database. Because it does not collect such information, Lions Bay Media has no such information to use
or to disclose to Third Parties. Lions Bay Media has designed this policy in order to comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act ("COPPA"). 1.9 Credit Card Information. Lions Bay Media may in certain cases collect credit card numbers and related information, such as the expiration date of the card ("Credit Card Information") when an
individual
places an order from Lions Bay Media. When the Credit Card Information is submitted to Lions Bay Media, such information is encrypted and is protected with SSL encryption software. Lions Bay
Media will
use the
Credit Card
