Protecting your privacy is very important to us. To assure you of your privacy, we provide this notice to help you understand our commitment to security, what kinds of information we may gather about you when you visit our websites, how we may use that information, and how you can correct the information. Adtools manages a conglomerate of websites and web pages for corporate and individual purposes. These websites all operate under similar laws and principles, except if stated otherwise. You are reading this page because this is one of the websites managed by Adtools Concepts, and therefore an Adtools website.

Information We Collect

Automatically Collected Anonymous Information

When you visit an Adtools website, certain anonymous information about your visit is logged automatically, as it is practiced by most websites; and these may include information about your IP address, domain name, browser type, mobile device type, access time, and referring website address. This information is not personally identifiable and is only used as a collectively grouped data for analysis, not in any way that personally identifies you in any direct way.

Personally Identifiable Information

Personally Identifiable Information or PII, is information about you that can enable someone to contact you. For example, your name, address, telephone number, or email address constitute PII. We may ask for such information when you subscribe to an email newsletter, order an item, a website subscription, other product, or service, or participate in an online survey, post a comment, enter a contest or sweepstakes, or use a service or tool such as emailing a webpage. Adtools respects your concerns about the privacy of any information that you supply to us. We believe that your personal information deserves protection, and that all companies are responsible for maintaining the integrity and security of their websites. We do not collect any personally identifiable information about you unless you provide it. Providing any personally identifiable information to us is voluntary. If you do not want us to obtain any personally identifiable information about you, do not submit it.

At some Adtools websites, you may submit information about other people. For example, you might submit a recipient's name and address to send a gift. We will use this information only to fulfill your request, and for no other purpose. You can visit, and browse our websites without revealing any personally identifiable information, but you may not be able to access certain content, features, or services if you choose not to disclose personally identifiable information.

How We Use This Information

Information collected may be aggregated for use in many ways. For example, we may combine information about the usage patterns of our visitors to learn which pages they visit most often, or what features are most attractive. Aggregated information may occasionally be shared with advertisers and business partners, but it cannot be used to contact you individually.

Personally identifiable information that you provide voluntarily may be used to:

• improve the content of our websites
• fulfill your requests for our products and services
• correspond with you about your purchases or
• notify you if you win a contest prize

• transfer updates to a successor entity in connection with a corporate merger, consolidation, sale of assets or other corporate change respecting our websites
• contact you for our or other reputable organizations' marketing purposes, and
• share with third parties for marketing purposes.

We send email marketing promotions through our own internal system, and we do not share client's email addresses with third parties for commercial purposes. Adtools does not sell or rent any confidential information about our customers to third parties.

Adtools may use personally identifiable information to provide Internet security, and to meet legal requirements. As a result, Adtools reserves the right to cooperate with law enforcement officials in the investigation of alleged unlawful activities committed on or through our websites. Adtools may disclose personally identifiable information in the course of officially authorized law enforcement investigations or as required to comply with a current judicial proceeding, court order, warrant, subpoena or other legal process served on Adtools.

In addition, in the event of a suspected deliberate attempt to circumvent our websites' security, with the intent to gain unauthorized access or to do physical damage, Adtools may share personally identifiable information about a suspected intruder with law enforcement officials. Adtools shall have no legal liability for such disclosures.

Notwithstanding any of the above, Adtools reserves the right to challenge the validity of any subpoena, court order, warrant or other legal process, in its sole discretion.

If you choose to post comments to a blog or article, any information you submit may become public. It may become accessible through search engines or, if you sign in using credentials from a third-party social networking service, it may become accessible to users on that service. Unless otherwise noted, we do not limit the distribution of information that you share using these features. Adtools is not responsible for any personal information you choose to make public through those forums, and you agree that such sharing will be deemed to have been permitted by you, not Adtools. If you prefer not to have your information published, do not submit it.

If you choose to submit content for publication (for example, a letter to the company), we may publish any information that you have provided to us. If you prefer not to have your personally identifiable information published, do not include it in your submission.

Cookies and Monitoring Devices

Cookies are a technology that helps us serve you better. When you visit any Adtools site, a text file called a "cookie" is placed in the browser directory of your computer's hard drive. This enables us to later retrieve stored information, such as the date and time of your visit to our site, your registration information and purchasing activity. Cookies do not identify the Internet user; they only identify the user's computer. Our cookies collect no personally identifiable information. We use cookies to help us know when, and how many people visit our websites; to store your personal preferences for paid online subscription services you may subscribe to, in order to provide you with the best experience possible; and to record session information, such as items that you add to your shopping cart.

Our third-party service providers and advertisers may also use cookies to manage and measure the performance of advertisements displayed on or delivered by or through our websites, and to provide advertising that is more relevant.

Adtools, our third-party service providers, or advertisers may use web beacons or similar small pieces of code placed on a webpage or in an email or newsletter, to monitor the behavior and collect data about the visitors viewing the web page or email or newsletter. For example, web beacons may be used to count the users who visit a web page, open an email or their newsletter, or deliver a cookie to the browser of a visitor viewing a web page.

Most browsers allow you to decline cookies. Your browser should contain instructions on how to do this. You have the choice to set your browser to accept all cookies, notify you when a cookie is set, delete cookies periodically, or reject all cookies. Generally, deleting or rejecting cookies also disables web beacons. Please be aware that rejecting all cookies may prevent you from enjoying the full features offered through Adtools websites.

Collection of Information by Third Parties, Sponsors, and Ad Servers

Advertisers and websites that have links on Adtools websites may collect information directly from you if you click an advertisement or link to visit another website. This Privacy Policy applies only to information you provide to Adtools, and not to any information you may provide to a third party. Please consult the privacy policy of any other website you visit to know what information they may collect and how they may use it.

Adtools sometimes partners with third parties that operate websites and services you can use. For example:

• A website may be cobranded. When you provide personal information through a cobranded website, you may have the option of providing it to either or both parties.
• An online store may be hosted by Amazon.com. Amazon.com hosts the pages of that store, ordering system, and order data. Amazon automatically collects order information but may only use this information in the aggregate, according to the Privacy Policy posted on Amazon.com.
• A contest or sweepstakes may be sponsored by or co-sponsored with third parties as identified in the contest or sweepstakes' official rules. By virtue of these relationships, third parties may obtain personally identifiable information that visitors voluntarily submit to participate in the website activity. We have no control over the use of this information by these third parties. The third parties' privacy rules determine whether these third parties will obtain such information.
