| AAARDVAAARK Privacy Policy
We respect and are committed to protecting your privacy. That is why we have adopted this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy lets you know how your personal information is processed and used. We promise that we will take steps to use your personal information only in ways that are compatible with this Privacy Policy. The following policies are only in effect for the Web pages, newsletters and opt-in announcement lists owned and operated by AAARDVAAARK. The following discloses our Privacy Policy.
What information are you collecting and how are you collecting it?
Every computer connected to the Internet is given a domain name and a set of numbers, that serve as that computer's "Internet Protocol" IP address. When a visitor requests a page from any Web site within the AAARDVAAARK network of Web sites, our Web servers automatically recognize that visitor's domain name and IP address. The domain name and IP address reveal nothing personal about you other than the IP address from which you have accessed our site. We use this information to examine our traffic in aggregate, and to investigate misuse of the AAARDVAAARK Network, its users, or to cooperate with law enforcement. See also Will you disclose the information you collect to outside third parties? We do not collect and evaluate this information for specific individuals. Our Web servers do not record e-mail addresses of the visitors.
What are cookies?
From time to time,AAARDVAAARK or its advertisers may send a "cookie" to your computer. A cookie is a small piece of data that is sent to your browser from a Web server and stored on your computer's hard drive. A cookie can't read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other Web sites. Cookies do not damage your system. We also use cookies to identify which areas of AAARDVAAARK's Network of Web sites you have visited. Our advertisers may also use cookies to ascertain how many times you've seen an advertisement. You can choose whether to accept cookies by changing the settings of your browser. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies, or allow your browser to show you when a cookie is being sent. If you choose not to accept these cookies, your experience at our Site and other Web sites may be diminished and some features may not work as intended.
How do you use single-pixel gifs?
AAARDVAAARK and its advertisers may use single-pixel gif images, sometimes referred to as web bugs or web beacons, to count Web page accesses and gather some general statistical information. AAARDVAAARK does not gather personal information through the use of these images. Our advertisers may use single-pixel gifs that can track personal information from cookies that may have been previously placed on a user's computer by an advertiser.
What information do you collect when I register for something?
AAARDVAAARK offers access to some services that are free but that require registration. We may use your registration contact information to send notification of AAARDVAAARK Network's products and services by e-mail.
What other information do you request?
We may also request your e-mail address for the purposes of conducting a survey or to provide additional services (for example, subscriptions to e-mail newsletters, announcement lists or information about new offerings). Whenever we request the identity of a visitor, we will clearly indicate the purpose of the inquiry before the information is requested. We maintain a strict "No-Spam" policy that means that we do not intend to sell, rent, or otherwise give your e-mail address to a third-party, without your consent.
We may from time to time send e-mail announcing new AAARDVAAARK products and services. Except as stated above, Xenith Group will not send you e-mail that you have not agreed to receive.
What information do you collect when I purchase something?
If you are purchasing something directly fromAAARDVAAARK, from any Web site within theAAARDVAAARK group of websites, we need to know your name, e-mail address, mailing address, credit card number and expiration date. This allows us to process and fulfill your order and to notify you of your order status. This information may also be used by us to notify you of related products and services. Credit card and e-mail information will not be shared or sold to third parties for any purpose without your express permission.
Certain AAARDVAAARK Web sites use a credit card payment gateway that safeguards this information by using industry standard SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encrypted servers. SSL codes the information transferred between you and the server, rendering it unreadable to anyone trying to intercept the information.
Wherever Xenith Group collects personal information we make an effort to include a link to this Privacy Policy on that page.
Will you disclose the information you collect to outside third parties?
AAARDVAAARK will disclose personal information and/or an IP address, when required by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to:
1) Conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on AAARDVAAARK,
2) Protect and defend the rights or property of the AAARDVAAARK Network of sites, or visitors to the AAARDVAAARK Network of sites and related properties,
3) Identify persons who may be violating the law, the rights of third parties, or otherwise misusing the AAARDVAAARK Network.
4) Cooperate with the investigations of purported unlawful activities.

AAARDVAAARK reserves the right to transfer all such information in connection with the sale of all or part of AAARDVAAARK's assets. Furthermore, we are not responsible for any breach of security or for any actions of any third parties that receive the information. We are not responsible for such third party privacy policies or how they treat information about their users

Opt-in announcement List Privacy Policy
From time to time we may have or develop a relationship with an independent, third party company that sends e-mail announcements to individuals who request to receive them. When you sign up for an AAARDVAAARK e-mail newsletter, you are given the opportunity to also receive announcement lists from any such third party.. Whether you want to receive these announcement lists is your choice; you should only receive those lists you affirmatively choose to. If you choose to receive a specific announcement list, you will receive commercial messages that are related to the topic of the list from independent third parties that have contracted with AAARDVAAARK to send messages to the list. Personally identifiable information will not be used byAAARDVAAARK or any third party for any purposes other than to deliver the e-mail announcements. You may stop the arrival of these announcement lists at any time by removing your e-mail address from the list by following the instructions on the e-mails you receive.

AAARDVAAARK is not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such Web sites or advertisers.
