that we allow to place ads and links on our Web pages. As a result
of your visit to Graphics Xtreme, ad server companies may collect information
such as your domain type, your IP address, and click stream information.
Please note that when you click on one
of these links, you are moving from Graphics Xtreme to another Web site. We
encourage you to read the site terms and privacy statements of these
linked sites as their site terms and privacy policies may differ from
ours.
II. ORDERS If
you purchase a product from one of the companies Graphics Xtreme represents,
they will request certain personally identifiable information from you
on their order form. You will most likely need to provide contact information
(such as name, email, and shipping address) and financial information
(such as credit card number, expiration date). Graphics Xtreme is not
responsible for the site terms or privacy policies of such other sites
so review their site terms and privacy policy before completing your
order.
III. REGISTRATION
FOR NEWSLETTER If Graphics Xtreme offers a newsletter then registration
would require Graphics Xtreme to request personal information,
such as name and email address. We use this information to contact
you about the services on our site in which you have expressed interest.
We will never share this information unless required to do so by law
enforcement agencies, as stated below in our privacy policy.
Privacy Policy
CONSUMER
PRIVACY I.
INFORMATION
WE COLLECT: INDIVIDUAL INTERNET CONSUMERS
A. Personally
Identifiable Information (PII). Under no circumstances does
Graphics Xtreme request or collect sensitive PII such as an Internet user's
medical/health conditions; racial or ethnic origin; political, religious
or philosophical beliefs or affiliations; trade union membership or
sex life.
B. Non-Personally
Identifiable Information (Non-PII). When a consumer responds
to or views an Internet advertisement served by Graphics Xtreme (such
as through third-party Web sites or email solicitation) or visits an
advertiser's web site, they send a cookie and/or gif file ("Cookies")
to assign an anonymous, unique identifier to the end user's Internet
browser.
Cookies are small data files commonly
used on the Internet to help optimize and personalize the Internet end
user experience and identify repeat visitors to Web sites. Graphics Xtreme
uses Cookies to obtain information about the preferences of consumers
and the services they select; and also to optimize and personalize the
Internet user's experience. If the Internet user re-visits the advertiser's
site directly, Graphics Xtreme is able to continue to track the user's activities.
Like most standard Web site servers, we use log files to collect Internet
protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP),
referring/exit pages, platform type, and date/timestamp. We use the information
to analyze site usage, administer the site, understand usage and navigation
trends in aggregate, and determine the relevance of content. This information,
however, is not linked to any personally identifiable information.
We also may use Internet browsing and
online purchase data associated with an anonymous identifier to develop
a predictive statistical user profile of the end user's needs and interests.
Graphics Xtreme does not use Cookies or log files to collect end users' names,
physical addresses, email addresses, phone numbers, credit card numbers,
social security numbers, or any other information which can be used to
identify a specific person. We may match the IP address and user profile
with email address data obtained separately in order to better target
campaigns to meet user's interests, but will not share this information
with third parties.
As previously mentioned, Graphics Xtreme has
relationships with other companies that we allow to place ads and links
on our Web pages. Please note that when you click on one of these links,
you are moving to another web site. We encourage you to read the privacy
statements of these linked sites as their privacy policies may differ
from ours.
Some of these other companies may use marketing
technology that allows advertisers to add non-personally-identifying
demographic information, such as age, gender, area code, or ZIP code,
to the non-identifiable profile data. Thus, there is no direct connection
between an end user's online choices and his or her personal identity.
In some cases, Graphics Xtreme receives and records partial email addresses
of Internet users, only in circumstances where the user voluntarily provided
its identity and contact information through the Advertiser's site or
third-party marketer's site. This partial email address does not enable
Graphics Xtreme to personally identify an Internet User nor is it shared, sold,
rented, or given away.
II. INFORMATION
SHARING Graphics Xtreme may release account and any other personal
information when we believe release is appropriate to respond to a
subpoena or otherwise comply with the law; or protect the rights, property,
or safety of Graphics Xtreme or others. This may include exchanging information
with other companies and organizations for fraud protection.
III. CONSUMER
CHOICE AND ACCESS
A. Opting
Out. Some Cookies have an "opt-out" option. This process
does not remove Graphics Xtreme's Cookie from your system; it simply replaces
it with an opt-out Cookie that does not contain any unique identifiers.
If Graphics Xtreme provides such a process it is detailed below. Some of
Graphics Xtreme's Cookies do not have an "opt-out" option, yet
you still have the option of blocking the use of Cookies by changing
a setting in your Internet browser. Please see your browser supplier's
Web site for details on how to do this. Graphics Xtreme does not maintain
a process for an individual consumer to opt-out of Graphics Xtreme's Cookies.
B. Accessing
Consumer Information. Because they are not directed towards
individual Internet users, most sites do not maintain a process for
an individual consumer to review and/or request changes to any PII
collected. Except as provided below, Graphics Xtreme does not maintain a
process for an individual consumer to access his/her PII.
IV. SECURITY Graphics Xtreme employs industry standard security measures to ensure the security
of all data. Any data that is stored on Graphics Xtreme's servers is treated
as proprietary and confidential and is not available to the public. Graphics Xtreme allows access to this data only to those employees or third parties
who have a need to know such information for the purpose of effectively
delivering Graphics Xtreme's products and services by means of user login and
password requirements. No transmission of data over the Internet is guaranteed
to be completely secure. It may be possible for third parties not under
the control of Graphics Xtreme to intercept or access transmissions or private
communications unlawfully. While we strive to protect your PII, Graphics Xtreme cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit
to us. You acknowledge and assume this risk when communicating with Graphics Xtreme.
V. CONSENT
AND CHANGES Graphics Xtreme may find it necessary or be legally obligated
to update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will
post those changes on this page and update the effective date so that
you are always aware of the information we collect, how we use it,
and under what circumstances we disclose it. Except as otherwise required
by law,modifications to this Privacy Policy will not affect the privacy
of data collected by Graphics Xtreme prior to the effective date of the policy
change.

from receiving further e-mail form them. Please note that under the CAN-SPAM
Act, an advertiser is required to provide an opt-out mechanism for consumers
to unsubscribe from future emails about the advertiser.

maintains strict privacy laws. These rules differ significantly from
US laws. To reconcile these differences, the US and the EU have created
