THE INFORMATION WE GATHER AND HOW WE USE IT
Non-Personally Identifiable Information
We may use non-personally identifiable information collected from you and
other users to perform statistical analyses of user behavior and characteristics.
These aggregated statistics would be used to improve the Site and for product
development and marketing purposes generally. We also may provide such
aggregated information to advertisers and other third parties for certain
purposes, but such statistics contain no personally identifiable information and
cannot be used to gather such information.
Other non-personally identifiable information about your visits to the Site,
such as the number of times you have viewed an advertisement (but not your name,
address or other personal information), also may be used to serve particular
advertisements to you on the Site.
Personally Identifiable Information
The personally identifiable information you provide to us when using the Site
may be used to provide products and services to you, to enhance your experience
at the Site, and, if applicable, to enhance your experience as a subscriber to
AHC Media LLC's products and services.
The ways in which we use your personally identifiable information will be
set forth, and consented to by you, either when you register to use our
Site or when you first use the Site.
We may employ independent contractors, vendors and suppliers (collectively,
"Outside Contractors") to provide specific services and products related to
AHC Media LLC and the Site, such as providing credit card processing and
fraud screening, order fulfillment and shipment, mailing of AHC Media LLC
publications and other materials, hosting and maintaining the Site, and
developing applications for the Site. These Outside Contractors may sometimes
have limited access to information collected from you, including your
personally identifiable information, in the course of providing products or
services to us. Access to your personally identifiable information by these
contractors is limited to the information reasonably necessary in order for these
Outside Contractors to perform their limited function for us. We also require that
these contractors (i) protect the privacy of your personally identifiable information
consistent with this Privacy Policy, and (ii) not use or disclose your personally
identifiable information for any purpose other than providing us with products or
services for which we contracted.
We may from time to time use your personally identifiable information to notify
you of special offers and new products and services from third parties that we
think may be of interest to you. It is possible that we may rent, sell or otherwise
transfer to third parties personally identifiable information about you. At any time,
you can contact AHC Media LLC to request that we not share your personally identifiable
information with third parties, as set forth in greater detail below.
AHC Media LLC may merge your information collected on the Site with similar data obtained
from third parties. We may use this enhanced personally identifiable information to
notify you of special offers, updated information and new products and services from AHC Media
Other unique circumstances may arise where we are required to disclose your personal
information to third parties, such as in connection with a corporate transaction where
all or a portion of our business or assets (including our associated customer lists
containing your personal information) are sold or transferred, or if disclosure is required
by law or pursuant to judicial or governmental investigations or proceedings.
You should be aware that if you voluntarily disclose personally identifiable
information in an e-mail or other communications with third parties listed on
the Sites or in other materials, that information, along with any other information
disclosed in your communication, can be collected and correlated and used by such
third parties and may result in your receiving unsolicited messages from other persons.
Such collection, correlation, use and messages are beyond our control.
