information provided by those visiting and interacting with
this website. We hold the privacy of your personal information
in the highest regard. The following discloses our information
gathering and dissemination practices for this
website.
We
recognize the importance of protecting your privacy and our
policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we
collect, use and safeguard the personal information you provide
to us and to assist you in making informed decisions when using
our site. This policy will be continuously assessed against new
technologies, business practices and our customers'
needs.
What
Information Do We Collect?
When you

information: personal information you knowingly choose to
disclose that is collected on an individual basis and Website
use information collected on an aggregate basis as you and
others browse our Website.
Personal
Information You Choose to Provide:
Email Information
If you
choose to correspond with us through email, we may retain the
content of your email messages together with your email address
and our responses. We provide the same protections for these
electronic communications that we employ in the maintenance of
information received by mail and telephone.
How Do We
Use the Information That You Provide to Us?
Broadly
speaking, we use personal information for purposes of
administering our business activities, providing the products
and services you requested, to process your payment, to monitor
the use of the service, our marketing and promotional efforts
and improve our content and service offerings, and customize
our site's content, layout, services and for other lawful
purposes. These uses improve our site and better tailor it to
meet your needs.
Furthermore,
such information may be shared with others on an aggregate
basis. Personally identifiable information or business
information will not be shared with parties except as required
by law.
Occasionally,
we may also use the information we collect to notify you about
important changes to our Website, new services, and special
offers we think you will find valuable. You may notify us at
any time if you do not wish to receive these offers by emailing
us at the link provided on the
newsletter. Sharing and
Selling Information
We do not
share, sell, lend or lease any of the information that uniquely
identify a subscriber (such as email addresses or personal

process transactions or provide services that you have
requested.
How Can You
Access and Correct Your Information?
You may
request access to all your personally identifiable information
that we collect online and maintain in our database by emailing
us at the usual address.
What About
Legally Compelled Disclosure of
Information?
We may
disclose information when legally compelled to do so, in other
words, when we, in good faith, believe that the law requires it
or for the protection of our legal rights. We may also disclose
account information when we have reason to believe that
disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact
or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our
Terms of Service or to protect the safety of our users and the
Public.
What About
Other Websites Linked to Our Web Site?
We are not
responsible for the practices employed by Websites linked to or
from our Web site or the information or content contained
therein. Often links to other Websites are provided solely as
pointers to information on topics that may be useful to the
users of our Website.
Please
remember that when you use a link to go from our Website to
another website, our Privacy Policy is no longer in effect.
Your browsing and interaction on any other website, including

Website's own rules and policies. Please read over those rules
and policies before proceeding.

that your information will be stored and processed on our
computers in New Zealand. The laws on holding personal
data in New Zealand may be less stringent than the laws of your
Country of residence or citizenship. To prevent unauthorized

electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure
the information we collect online.
