Please keep in mind
that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally
sensitive data through JP SCHMIDT public message
boards, this information may be collected and used by others. Note: JP SCHMIDT does not read any of your private online
communications.
JP SCHMIDT encourages you to review the privacy
statements of Web sites you choose to link to from JP SCHMIDT so that you can
understand how those Web sites collect, use and share your information. JP SCHMIDT is not responsible for the privacy statements
or other content on Web sites outside of the JP SCHMIDT and JP SCHMIDT family of Web sites.
JP SCHMIDT collects and uses your personal information
to operate the JP SCHMIDT Web site and deliver
the services you have requested. JP SCHMIDT also uses your
personally identifiable information to inform you of other products or services
available from JP SCHMIDT and its affiliates. JP SCHMIDT may also contact you via surveys to conduct
research about your opinion of current services or of potential new services
that may be offered.
JP SCHMIDT does not sell, rent or lease its customer
lists to third parties. JP SCHMIDT may, from time to
time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a particular
offering that may be of interest to you. In those cases, your unique personally
identifiable information (e-mail, name, address, telephone number) is not
transferred to the third party. In addition, JP SCHMIDT may share data with
trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis, send you email or

third parties are prohibited from using your personal information except to
provide these services to JP SCHMIDT, and they are

JP SCHMIDT does not use or disclose sensitive personal
information, such as race, religion, or political affiliations, without your
explicit consent.
JP SCHMIDT keeps track of the Web sites and pages our
customers visit within JP SCHMIDT, in order to
determine what JP SCHMIDT services are the most
popular. This data is used to deliver customized content and advertising within
JP SCHMIDT to customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.
JP SCHMIDT Web sites will disclose your personal
information, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the good
faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the edicts of the
law or comply with legal process served on JP SCHMIDT or the site; (b)
protect and defend the rights or property of JP SCHMIDT; and, (c) act under

The JP SCHMIDT Web site use "cookies" to help you
personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on
your hard disk by a Web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or
deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can
only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary
purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The
purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a
specific page. For example, if you personalize JP SCHMIDT pages, or register
with JP SCHMIDT site or services, a cookie helps JP SCHMIDT to recall your specific information on
subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal
information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you
return to the same JP SCHMIDT Web site, the
information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the
JP SCHMIDT features that you customized.
You have the ability
to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies,
but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you
prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully
experience the interactive features of the JP SCHMIDT services or Web sites
you visit.
JP SCHMIDT secures your personal information from
unauthorized access, use or disclosure. JP SCHMIDT secures the personally
identifiable information you provide on computer servers in a controlled,
secure environment, protected from unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When
personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted to other Web
sites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure Socket
Layer (SSL) protocol.
JP SCHMIDT will occasionally update this Statement of
Privacy to reflect company and customer feedback. JP SCHMIDT encourages you to
periodically review this Statement to be informed of how JP SCHMIDT is protecting your information.
JP SCHMIDT welcomes your comments regarding this
Statement of Privacy. If you believe that JP SCHMIDT has not adhered to
