Privacy Philosophy
The Pallmann Group LLP., producer of The Pallmann Group software and The Pallmann Group web sites, believes that online privacy is crucial for the ongoing success of the Internet as a service, commercial and entertainment medium. We collect personal information from you primarily to make using The Pallmann Group services easier and more satisfying. In registering for certain services offered by The Pallmann Group you may be asked to provide your name, e-mail address, zip code, gender and information about what you do and don't like. We request this information from you so that we can provide you with the personalized service necessary to meet The Pallmann Group' goal of humanizing the Internet. However, unless you designate otherwise, the personally identifiable information you provide will be known only to you and to The Pallmann Group. We will always ask you before providing this information to anyone else. If others want this information, including your name or your email address, we will provide it only if you give us permission to do so.

From time to time, The Pallmann Group may introduce new products and services to its users. To the extent these new products and services affect this policy, this policy will be updated and you will be informed of these updates and any privacy conditions related to these services.

What information does The Pallmann Group gather/track and how is it used?
Information gathered online can generally be categorized as either anonymous or personally identifiable. Anonymous information is information that cannot be traced back to a specific individual. For example, The Pallmann Group knows how many questions are asked each day at each of its web sites but does not know the names, e-mail addresses or gender of the people asking the questions.

Personally identifiable information is information you provide that lets us know specific facts about you so that we can customize the information The Pallmann Group delivers to you accordingly. This information can include your name, address, zip code, age, etc. It is our belief that you will find it beneficial to provide us with personal information so that your experience with The Pallmann Group is more satisfying.

Gathering and Use of Anonymous Information
Each time a visitor comes to an The Pallmann Group web site, we collect some information to improve the overall quality of the online experience, including product monitoring, product improvement, and targeted advertising. At The Pallmann Group web sites, we collect the visitor's domain name (e.g. whether the user is logged on from compaq.com or whitehouse.gov), referral data (e.g., we record the address of the last URL a user visited prior to clicking through to a The Pallmann Group web site), and browser and platform type (e.g., a Netscape browser on a Macintosh platform).

In addition to collecting these types of information, The Pallmann Group collects aggregate queries for internal reporting and targeted advertising. We also count, track, and aggregate the visitor's activity into our analysis of general traffic flows at our sites (e.g. tracking where traffic comes from, how traffic flows within The Pallmann Group properties, etc.). To these ends, we may merge information about you into group data, which may then be shared on an aggregated basis with our advertisers; but The Pallmann Group will not disclose your individual identity or personal data without your permission. When The Pallmann Group does present aggregated information to outside companies, no one will be able to identify or contact you.

Use Of The Pallmann Group Cookies
The Pallmann Group' web sites use cookies to track traffic flow and patterns of travel within and through the sites. Cookies are a standard Internet technology that allow us to both store and retrieve login information on a user's system. Our web server automatically asks a new user whether his or her browser will agree to accept an The Pallmann Group cookie file. If a visitor accepts, our web server will identify the user's cookie for The Pallmann Group' use in internal reporting. If a user accepts an The Pallmann Group cookie, but would later like to remove it from his or her computer, he or she can just remove it from the browser.

With whom does The Pallmann Group share the information it gathers/tracks?
Demographic Information
When we do present information to our advertisers, it is in the form of grouped statistics compiled from our users' answers to survey questions and on-site behavior. The Pallmann Group will not disclose the contact or demographic information of any individual user to advertisers or any other outside organization without the express permission of the individual.

User Research
On occasion, The Pallmann Group will make available to potential advertisers and research firms aggregated results from research it has conducted on its user base. Once again, The Pallmann Group will only provide such demographic information on an aggregated basis and does not disclose individual member profiles without user consent.

Special Policy With Regards to Information from Children Under Thirteen
In accordance with the Federal Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA), The Pallmann Group will never knowingly request personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13 without parental consent. When we do receive information (with parental consent) from users under the age of 13, we will never voluntarily share their personally identifiable information with third parties, regardless of their stated preference given at registration.
