the Site. The purpose of this privacy policy is to disclose to you what
information we may collect, how we may collect it, with whom we may share it,
and certain other matters related to such information, including the choices
you have regarding our collection of information and our use and disclosure to
other parties of information we may have collected from you.
Please read the
following to learn more about our data collection policies and practices.
TYPES OF INFORMATION THAT MAY BE COLLECTED
The following are
the types of information we may collect:

Personal information such as your username and password, name, email address,
physical address, zip code or other information may be collected via the Site.
Site Usage Information
We may receive and store certain types of information whenever you visit the
Site. For example, we may collect click-stream data and your IP address.
Email Communications
When you open emails from the Site, we may receive a confirmation noting you

emails you have opted to and not to receive.
Information from Other Sources
We may receive information about you from other sources and add it to your
personal information.
HOW INFORMATION MAY BE COLLECTED
We may collect information from you in several different areas on the Site,
including but not limited to those described below:
Registration
You will be asked to complete a registration form and provide personally
identifiable information; you will also be asked to choose a username and
password in order to take advantage of certain features the Site may choose to
offer, including, but not limited to, Newsletters, Contests, Forums, and
Fantasy based services.
Newsletters and Site Emails
We may offer free newsletters to share information with you about the Site,
about us and our affiliates, or about our business partners and advertisers and
sponsors. You may receive a newsletter either by registering for a particular
newsletter or in conjunction with a special feature or membership for which you
have registered on the Site. You may cancel your free email subscription by
following the instructions provided on the Site or, in some instances, in the
designated area of certain newsletters or emails.
Contests or Sweepstakes
We may operate contests and sweepstakes through the Site which may require
registration. Your personally identifiable information may be used to contact
you for winner notification, prize delivery confirmation or other related
purposes. We may ask your permission to allow us to post publicly some of your
information on the Site, such as on a winners page, in the event you win a
contest or sweepstakes. Except as required by applicable law, we will not post
your information without your permission. In some instances, a third party
advertiser or sponsor may operate or host a contest or sweepstakes on the Site,
and collect your information. In those cases, where we are not the operator or
host of the contest or sweepstakes, we have no control over the information
collected and accordingly urge you to review the advertiser's or sponsor's
privacy policy applicable to the contest or sweepstakes before participating.

From time-to-time we may request personally identifiable information from you
via surveys or voting polls. Participation is voluntary and you will have the
opportunity to decide whether or not to disclose information. At times, you may
have to register to vote or to take part in a survey.
Cookies
As with many websites, the Site uses standard technology called "cookies,"
which are small data files that are transferred to your computer when you allow
your browser to accept cookies. Cookies automatically identify your Web browser
to the Site whenever you visit the Site, and make using the Site easier for you
by saving your passwords, purchases, and preferences. By tracking how and when
you use the Site, cookies help us determine which areas are popular and which
are not. Many improvements and updates to the Site are based on data obtained
from cookies. Accepting cookies allows you, among other things, to personalize
your experience on the Site. Cookies may also allow the Site to present to you
advertising which may be of interest to you. If you do not want information
collected through the use of cookies, you generally can opt out of providing
this information by turning the cookies off in your browser; however, some
areas of the Site may not provide you with a personalized experience if you
have disabled the use of cookies.
IP Addresses and Click-stream Data
We may collect IP addresses and/or click-stream data for purposes of system
administration and to report aggregate information to our advertisers and
sponsors. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your
computer whenever you access the Internet. Our computers identify your computer
by its IP address. When you request Web pages from the Site, our computers log
your IP address. Click-stream data is information collected by our computers
when you request Web pages from the Site. Click-stream data may include such
information as the page served, the time, the source of the request, the type
of browser making the request, the preceding page view and other such
non-personal information. When analyzed, this data helps us analyze how
visitors arrive at the Site, what type of content is most popular, what type of
visitors in the aggregate are interested in particular kinds of content and
advertising, and the like.
Transaction

If you order any
information from our Site or subscribe for any of the services offered on our
Site, we will ask you to complete an order form that will request certain

number and expiration date and general contact and billing information. We will

you). Such information is collected and stored
through encrypted means for your protection.

WITH WHOM THE INFORMATION MAY BE SHARED
At times, we may share your personally identifiable information with others for

We employ other businesses, certain services and individuals to perform
functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders, sending e-mail,
removing repetitive information from customer lists, Site analysis, analyzing
data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments, and
providing customer service. They may have access to personally identifiable
information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other
purposes.
-

We may send offers to you on behalf of other partners. When we do this, we do
not give that partner your name and address. If you do not want to receive such
offers, you may opt out in the registration process or by emailing us at

shared, in an effort to protect you, third parties who have access to
personally identifiable information must abide by the current Site privacy
policy. However, we are not responsible for the privacy practices of these
other companies, and you should review the privacy practices of such websites
prior to providing your personally identifiable information.
-
Third-Party Ad Serving &
Audience and Traffic Measurement Services:
The Site may use a third party network advertiser to serve the advertisements
on the Site and/or may use a traffic measurement service to analyze the traffic
on the Site. Network advertisers are third parties that display advertisements
based on your visits to this Site and other websites you have visited.
Third-party ad serving enables us to target advertisements to you for products
or websites you might be interested in. Audience and Traffic Measurement
Services allow us to collect anonymous traffic and behavior information from
our Site by monitoring anonymous visitor activity. Although advertisers or
other companies do not have access to the Site cookies, the Site's advertisers,
sponsors and/or traffic measurement services may themselves set and access
their own cookies on your computer if you choose to have your cookies enabled
in your browser. Cookies allow third party advertisers to show you
advertisements or content you might be interested in. Other companies' use of
their cookies is subject to their own privacy policies, not this one.
-
Business Transfers:
The Site or Fantasy 911 may be sold along with its assets, or other
transactions may occur in which your personally identifiable information is one
of the business assets transferred. In such a case, your personally
identifiable information, which we have gathered, may be one of the business
assets we transfer.
-
Legal Process:
In the event we are required to respond to subpoenas, court orders or other
legal process your personally identifiable information may be disclosed
pursuant to such subpoena, court order or legal process, which may be without
notice to you.
CHAT ROOMS, FORUMS, AND MESSAGE BOARDS
The Site may make chat rooms, forums and message boards available to its users.
You are not required to provide any personal information when using these areas
but you may choose to do so. If you post personal information online, it will
be publicly available and you may receive unsolicited messages from other
parties. Fantasy 911 cannot ensure the security of any information you
choose to make public in a chat room, forum, or message board. Also, we cannot
ensure that parties who have access to such publicly available information will
respect your privacy. Please exercise caution when deciding to disclose
personal information in these areas.
LINKS TO OTHER WEB SITES
You should be aware that when you are on the Site you could be directed to
other sites beyond our control. For example, if you "click" on a banner
advertisement, the "click" may take you off the Site onto a different website.
This includes links from advertisers, sponsors and partners that may use the
Site's logo as part of a co-branding agreement. These other websites may send
their own cookies to you, independently collect data or solicit personal
information and may or may not have their own published privacy policies. If
you visit a Website that is linked to our Site, you should consult that site's
privacy policy before providing any personal information.
SECURITY
This Site incorporates reasonable safeguards to protect the security,
integrity, completeness, accuracy and privacy of the personal information that
we may collect and we have put into place reasonable precautions to protect
such information from loss, misuse and alteration. Your personally identifiable
information is transferred to our computers utilizing encryption software. Only
those employees who need access to your information in order to do their jobs
are allowed access. Our security policies are reviewed periodically and revised
as required.
