Also, a discussion of the use of aggregate (i.e.,non-personally identifying) information should be disclosed here as well. Be as specific as possible, without being contingent. Avoid �we may do this� �we might do that� type of language.]

Service Providers
We use other third parties to provide hosting and security services on
our site. When you sign up for HammerKit services, we will share
information required to enable the new service to be activated, such as
the site name, your address and your hosting and security preferences
as necessary for the third party to provide that service.
These third parties are prohibited from using your personally identifiable information for any other purpose.
Legal Disclaimer
We reserve the right to disclose your personally identifiable
information as required by law and when we believe that disclosure is
necessary to protect our rights and/or to comply with a judicial
proceeding, court order, or legal process served on our Web site
Choice/Opt-out
We provide you the opportunity to �opt-out� of having your personally
identifiable information used for certain purposes, when we ask for
this information. For example, if you purchase a product/service but
do not wish to receive any additional marketing material from us, you
can indicate your preference on our order form.
If you no longer wish to receive our newsletter and promotional
communications, you may opt-out of receiving them by following the
instructions included in each newsletter or communication or by
emailing us at [email protected].
You will be notified when your personal information is collected by any
third party that is not our agent/service provider, so you can make an
informed choice as to whether or not to share your information with
that party.
Log Files
As is true of most Web sites, we gather certain information
automatically and store it in log files. This information includes
internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, internet service
provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time
stamp, and clickstream data.
We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to
analyze trends, to administer the site, to track users� movements
around the site and to gather demographic information about our user
base as a whole.
We do link this automatically-collected data to personally identifiable
information. IP addresses are tied to personally identifiable
information to enable a log of changes to your service to be created.
Cookies
A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user�s computer for
record-keeping purposes. We use cookies on our sites. We link the
information we store in cookies to personally identifiable information
you submit while on our site.
We use both session ID cookies and/or persistent cookies. We use
session cookies to make it easier for you to navigate our site. A
session ID cookie expires when you close you browser. A persistent
cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time. You
can remove persistent cookies by following directions provided in your
Internet browser�s �help� file.
We set a persistent cookie to store your passwords, so you don�t have
to enter it more than once. Persistent cookies also enable us to track
and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our
site.
If you reject cookies, you may still use our site, but your ability to
use some areas of our site, such as contests or surveys, will be
limited. Some of our business partners (e.g., advertisers) use cookies
on our site. We have no access to or control over these cookies. See
�Third Party Advertisers.�

and its derivatives only and does not cover the use of cookies by any
advertisers.

Bulletin Boards/Chat Rooms
If you use a bulletin board or chat room on this site, you should be
aware that any personally identifiable information you submit there can

Security
The security of your personal information is important to us. When you

socket layer technology (SSL).
We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal
information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we

In the event HammerKit goes through a business transition, such as a
merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or a portion of

in advance and a prominent notice on our Web site for 30 days of any
such change in ownership or control of your personal information.
