PRIVACY
POLICY
Last Updated: January 27,
2009
power-trust.com strives to offer its
visitors the many advantages of Internet technology and to
provide an interactive and personalized experience. We may use
Personally Identifiable Information (your name, e-mail address,
street address, telephone number) subject to the terms of this
privacy policy. We will never sell, barter, or rent your email
address to any unauthorized third party. Period.
How we gather information from
users
How we collect and store information
depends on the page you are visiting, the activities in which
you elect to participate and the services provided. For
example, you may be asked to provide information when you
register for access to certain portions of our sites or request
certain features, such as newsletters or when you make a
purchase. You may provide information when you participate in
sweepstakes and contests, message boards and chat rooms, and
other interactive areas of our sites. Like most Web sites,
power-trust.com also collects information automatically and
through the use of electronic tools that may be transparent to
our visitors. For example, we may log the name of your Internet
Service Provider or use cookie technology to recognize you and
hold information from your visit. Among other things, the
cookie may store your user name and password, sparing you from
having to re-enter that information each time you visit, or may
control the number of times you encounter a particular
advertisement while visiting our site. As we adopt additional
technology, we may also gather information through other means.
In certain cases, you can choose not to provide us with
information, for example by setting your browser to refuse to
accept cookies, but if you do you may be unable to access
certain portions of the sites or may be asked to re-enter your
user name and password, and we may not be able to customize the
sites' features according to your preferences.
What we do with the information
we collect
Like other Web publishers, we collect
information to enhance your visit and deliver more
individualized content and advertising. We respect your privacy
and do not share your information with anyone.
Aggregated Information (information that
does not personally identify you) may be used in many ways. For
example, we may combine information about your usage patterns
with similar information obtained from other users to help
enhance our sites and services (e.g., to learn which pages are
visited most or what features are most attractive). Aggregated
Information may occasionally be shared with our advertisers and
business partners. Again, this information does not include any
Personally Identifiable Information about you or allow anyone
to identify you individually.
We may use Personally Identifiable
Information collected on power-trust.com sites to
communicate with you about your registration and customization
preferences; our Terms of Service and privacy policy; services
and products offered by power-trust.com sites and other
topics we think you might find of interest.
Personally Identifiable Information
collected by power-trust.com sites may also be used for
other purposes, including but not limited to site
administration, troubleshooting, processing of e-commerce
transactions, administration of sweepstakes and contests, and
other communications with you. Certain third parties who
provide technical support for the operation of our site (our
Web hosting service for example) may access such information.
We will use your information only as permitted by law. In
addition, from time to time as we continue to develop our
business, we may sell, buy, merge or partner with other
companies or businesses. In such transactions, user information
may be among the transferred assets. We may also disclose your
information in response to a court order, at other times when
we believe we are reasonably required to do so by law, in
connection with the collection of amounts you may owe to us,
and/or to law enforcement authorities whenever we deem it
appropriate or necessary. Please note we may not provide you
with notice prior to disclosure in such cases.
Affiliated sites, linked sites
and advertisements
power-trust.com expects its partners,
advertisers and affiliates to respect the privacy of our users.
Be aware, however, that third parties, including our partners,
advertisers, affiliates and other content providers accessible
through our site, may have their own privacy and data
collection policies and practices. For example, during your
visit to our sites you may link to, or view as part of a frame
on a power-trust.com site page, certain content that is
actually created or hosted by a third party. Also, through
power-trust.com sites you may be introduced to, or be able
to access, information, Web sites, features, contests or
sweepstakes offered by other parties. power-trust.com is not
responsible for the actions or policies of such third parties.
You should check the applicable privacy policies of those third
parties when providing information on a feature or page
operated by a third party.
While on our site, our advertisers,
promotional partners or other third parties may use cookies or
other technology to attempt to identify some of your
preferences or retrieve information about you. For example,
some of our advertising is served by third parties and may
include cookies that enable the advertiser to determine whether
you have seen a particular advertisement before. Other features
available on our site may offer services operated by third
parties and may use cookies or other technology to gather
information. power-trust.com does not control the use of this
technology by third parties or the resulting information, and
is not responsible for any actions or policies of such third
parties.
You should also be aware that if you
voluntarily disclose Personally Identifiable Information on
message boards or in chat areas, that information can be viewed
publicly and can be collected and used by third parties without
our knowledge and may result in unsolicited messages from other
individuals or third parties. Such activities are beyond the
control of power-trust.com and this policy.
Children
power-trust.com does not knowingly
collect or solicit Personally Identifiable Information from or
about children under 13 except as permitted by law. If we
discover we have received any information from a child under 13
in violation of this policy, we will delete that information
immediately. If you believe power-trust.com has any information
from or about anyone under 13, please contact us at the address

Policy

accept those changes. Information collected prior to the time
any change is posted will be used according to the rules and
laws that applied at the time the information was
collected.
