and used. This Privacy Policy is available for you to review on our
epixome.com homepage and on every page where we ask for personally
identifiable information. The Information We Collect:
This Privacy Policy applies to all
information collected on the Site. ePixome is an ethical and responsible
company and adheres to all US & Canadian privacy rules and
regulations. ePixome will not use, share, or sell any information
submitted as part of our Digital Pixo service for any unsolicited
third-party marketing or advertising. The use of your personal
information, specifically your name and e-mail address, is necessary
for us to execute our system of photo retrieval and sharing. As part of an expanded feature of our
system, you may be asked to provide personal information so that you
can register for a sweepstakes or contest, promotion or to receive
information. Your participation is voluntary and we will not require
you to provide more information than is necessary to participate in
any of our Site's activities. The types of personal information
collected on this website include: 1) e-mail address 2) postal code
and 3) first and last name 4) address 5) phone number. In some cases,
your Date of Birth (DOB) may be required to validate participation in
our service or a related contest or registration. You may also be asked to provide other
information from time to time on Sites. For example, we may request
some basic information about your preferences (such as where you
would like to find our service, or how you like our system, etc.) or
your observations (such as your excitement level, or rating your
experience with our staff, etc.). The information may be requested
through a fill-in-the blank method or a multiple choice option. We
will not ask you to reveal financial or sensitive data information.
The Way We Use Information:
We use return e-mail addresses to
answer the e-mail that we receive, and we may use return e-mail to
send you other information. Such addresses are not used for any other
purpose.

information. Use of Cookies:
Cookies are files or pieces of
information that may be stored in your computer's hard drive when you
visit a website. We use cookies to better tailor our Site and our
offerings to your interests and needs. Cookies may also be used to
help speed up your future activities or to improve your user
experience by remembering the information that you have already
provided to us. We do not use cookies to retrieve information from
your computer that was not voluntarily provided by you (i.e., during
membership registration or a contest). The use of cookies is an
industry standard and you will find them at most websites. Most
browsers are initially set to accept cookies. If you would prefer,
you can set your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when
cookies are being sent so that you can flush them from your browser
if you object to their presence.
Our Privacy Practices with Third
Parties:
We share aggregate, non-personally
identifiable information about our users with advertisers, business
partners, sponsors, and other third parties. We do not provide any
identifiable personal information to any third party for any purpose
whatsoever. For example, we may tell a business partner the number of
men and the number of women that entered a contest, but we do not
disclose anything that could be used to identify those individuals.
Access by our employees and agents to your Personal Information is
only on a need to know basis on the understanding that this is
confidential business information. Our intention is never to use or
share personally identifiable information provided to us in ways that
are different than the ways described above without also providing
you with an opportunity to "unsubscribe" or prohibit such
unrelated uses.
Links to Other Sites:
Users should be aware that when you are
on this Site you could be directed to other sites that are beyond our
control. There may be links to other sites that take you outside our
service. These other sites may send their own cookies to users, or
otherwise collect data or solicit personal information. Always be
aware of where you end up. Check the linked site to locate its
privacy policy which may be different from our own. If this Site
links you to any third party website, ePixome makes no representation
as to the existence, sufficiency, accuracy or completeness of their
privacy policy.
Our Commitment to Data Security:
We take reasonable precautions to keep
your personal information secure. We have put in place appropriate
physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard the
information we collect. We cannot guarantee the security of any
information you disclose online, and you do so at your own risk.
Our Commitment to Children's Privacy:
The privacy of young children is of
special concern to us, so it is our policy not to use any personal
information they provide.
What Information Requested on the
Website is Required:
The information we initially require at
the time of registration is e-mail address, postal code, full name of
the website visitor, address and phone number.
Who We May Share Our Collected
Information With:
We will use the information we collect
only for internal purposes. This means we will never share or rent or
intentionally make the personally identifiable information we have
collected available to anyone outside ePixome (including our
affiliates and subsidiaries). If the information we collect is
obtained with the help of an agent (for example, if we hire a company
to collect the answers to certain questions and then supervise a
random prize drawing, then that company is our agent) then we will
have the agent sign an agreement that they will not use any of the
information they have access to, for any reason other than the
purposes for which we hired them.
All optional information is collected
on a voluntary basis and will be used in accordance with our Privacy
Policy regarding the use of information that we collect. This
optional information will not be provided to anyone outside ePixome
in any personally identifiable manner.
We may use the information we collect
in order to offer a customized interactive environment for our Site's
visitors, to enhance our general Site content development and for
internal marketing purposes.

We reserve the right to change this
Privacy Policy at our discretion. If we decide to change our Privacy
Policy we will post those changes here. We encourage you to visit
this area frequently to stay informed. If there is any material
change in the type of information we collect, we will obtain your
permission before we attempt to collect the additional personal
information from you. We will not make any changes which allow us to
give personal information to a third party without obtaining
permission from you first.
