Our Privacy Policy
Last Updated: November 1, 2007
NoSweatSpeaking.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 site 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 site.
Like most Web sites, NoSweatSpeaking.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, you may set your browser to refuse to accept cookies,
but if you do you may be unable to access certain portions of the
site or may be asked to re-enter your user name and password, and
we may not be able to customize the site’s 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 site 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 NoSweatSpeaking.com
to communicate with you about your registration and customization
preferences; our Terms of Service and privacy policy; services and
products offered by NoSweatSpeaking.com and other topics we think
you might find of interest.
Personally Identifiable Information collected by NoSweatSpeaking.com
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
NoSweatSpeaking.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 site you may link to, or
view as part of a frame on a NoSweatSpeaking.com page, certain content
that is actually created or hosted by a third party.
Also, through NoSweatSpeaking.com you may be introduced to, or
be able to access, information, Web sites, features, contests or
sweepstakes offered by other parties.
NoSweatSpeaking.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 may be 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.
NoSweatSpeaking.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.
It 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 NoSweatSpeaking.com
and this policy.
Children
NoSweatSpeaking.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 NoSweatSpeaking.com has any information
from or about anyone under 13, please contact us at the address

the rules and laws that applied at the time the information was
collected.
