privacy of your personal information in the highest
regard. The following discloses our information gathering
and dissemination practices for this

As with most other websites, we
collect and use the data contained in log files. The
information in the log files include your IP (internet
protocol) address, your ISP (internet service provider, such as
AOL or Shaw Cable), the browser you used to visit our site
(such as Internet Explorer or Firefox), the time you visited

We do use cookies to store

such as forums.
We also use third party advertisements
to support the site. Some of these advertisers may use
technology such as cookies and web beacons when they advertise
on our site, which will also send these advertisers (such as
Google through the Google AdSense program) information
including your IP address, your ISP , the browser you used to
visit our site, and in some cases, whether you have Flash
installed. This is generally used for geotargeting purposes
(showing New York real estate ads to someone in New York, for
example) or showing certain ads based on specific sites visited
(such as showing cooking ads to someone who frequents cooking
sites).
You can chose to disable or
selectively turn off our cookies or third-party cookies in your
browser settings, or by managing preferences in programs such
as Norton Internet Security. However, this can affect how you
are able to interact with our site as well as other websites.
This could include the inability to login to services or
programs, such as logging into forums or accounts.

choose to correspond with us through email, we may retain
the content of your email messages together with your

We may change this Privacy Policy from time
to time. If/when changes are made to this privacy policy, we
will email users who have given us permission to do so. We will
post any changes here, so be sure to check back periodically.
However, please be assured that if the Privacy Policy changes
in the future, we will not use the personal information you
have submitted to us under this Privacy Policy in a manner that
is materially inconsistent with this Privacy Policy, without
your prior consent.
