Grab-Info.com Privacy Statement
Last Updated: December 18, 2006
Grab-Info.com strives to offer its visitors the many advantages of
Internet technology and to provide an interactive and personalized
experience. We may use Personally Identifiable Information (your name,
e-mail address, street address, telephone number) subject to the terms
of this privacy policy. We will never sell, barter, or rent your email
address to any unauthorized third party.
How we gather information from users
How we collect and store information depends on the page you are
visiting, the activities in which you elect to participate and the
services provided. For example, you may be asked to provide information
when you register for access to certain portions of our site or request
certain features, such as newsletters or when you make a purchase. You
may provide information when you participate in sweepstakes and
contests, message boards and chat rooms, and other interactive areas of
our site. Like most Web sites, Grab-Info.com also collects information
automatically and through the use of electronic tools that may be
transparent to our visitors. For example, we may log the name of your
Internet Service Provider or use cookie technology to recognize you and
hold information from your visit. Among other things, the cookie may
store your user name and password, sparing you from having to re-enter
that information each time you visit, or may control the number of
times you encounter a particular advertisement while visiting our site.
As we adopt additional technology, we may also gather information
through other means. In certain cases, you can choose not to provide us
with information, for example by setting your browser to refuse to
accept cookies, but if you do you may be unable to access certain
portions of the site or may be asked to re-enter your user name and
password, and we may not be able to customize the site’s features
according to your preferences.
What we do with the information we collect
Like other Web publishers, we collect information to enhance your visit
and deliver more individualized content and advertising. We respect
your privacy and do not share your information with anyone.
Aggregated Information (information that does not personally identify
you) may be used in many ways. For example, we may combine information
about your usage patterns with similar information obtained from other
users to help enhance our site and services (e.g., to learn which pages
are visited most or what features are most attractive). Aggregated
Information may occasionally be shared with our advertisers and
business partners. Again, this information does not include any
Personally Identifiable Information about you or allow anyone to
identify you individually.
We may use Personally Identifiable Information collected on
Grab-Info.com to communicate with you about your registration and
customization preferences; our Terms of Service and privacy policy;
services and products offered by Grab-Info.com and other topics we
think you might find of interest.
Personally Identifiable Information collected by Grab-Info.com may also
be used for other purposes, including but not limited to site
administration, troubleshooting, processing of e-commerce transactions,
administration of sweepstakes and contests, and other communications
with you.
Affiliated sites, linked sites and advertisements.
Grab-Info.com expects its partners, advertisers and affiliates to
respect the privacy of our users. Be aware, however, that third
parties, including our partners, advertisers, affiliates and other
content providers accessible through our site, may have their own
privacy and data collection policies and practices. For example, during
your visit to our site you may link to, or view as part of a frame on a
Grab-Info.com page, certain content that is actually created or hosted
by a third party. Also, through Grab-Info.com you may be introduced to,
or be able to access, information, Web sites, features, contests or
sweepstakes offered by other parties. Grab-Info.com is not responsible
for the actions or policies of such third parties. You should check the
applicable privacy policies of those third parties when providing
information on a feature or page operated by a third party.
While on our site, our advertisers, promotional partners or other third
parties may use cookies or other technology to attempt to identify some
of your preferences or retrieve information about you. For example,
some of our advertising is served by third parties and may include
cookies that enable the advertiser to determine whether you have seen a
particular advertisement before. Other features available on our site
may offer services operated by third parties and may use cookies or
other technology to gather information. Grab-Info.com does not control
the use of this technology by third parties or the resulting
information, and is not responsible for any actions or policies of such
third parties.
You should also be aware that if you voluntarily disclose Personally
Identifiable Information on message boards or in chat areas, that
information can be viewed publicly and can be collected and used by
third parties without our knowledge and may result in unsolicited
messages from other individuals or third parties. Such activities are
beyond the control of Grab-Info.com and this policy.

What is a Cookie?
Cookies are a feature of web browser (Internet Explorer, Netscape
Navigator, etc.) software that allows web servers to recognize the
computer used to access a site. They are small pieces of data that are
stored by a user's web browser on one site to simplify subsequent
interactions with that site by the same user or to use the information
to streamline the user's transaction on related web pages. This makes
it easier for a user to move from site to site and to complete
transactions over the Internet. Cookies should make your online
experience easier and more personalized.
How Do We Use the Information Collected?
Broadly speaking, persons we employ directly, or as contractors or
agents at our direction, use Active Information for purposes of
administering our business activities, providing customer services such
as support, and making available other products or services we think
may be of interest to our users. We may use the Active Information or
Passive Information you provide to us to contact you about changes to
our site, new services, features or products we offer, or other
information we think you shall find valuable. If at any time you do not
wish to receive such information, please send us an email .
We use Passive Information to gather information about our users and to
enhance and design our site to make it easier, faster and friendlier to
use. Additionally, cookies help us know information about how many
people visit our site, when they visit and how they use our service. We
do not connect any of this information to your personal information or
email address. However, Passive Information may result in your viewing
of particular advertising based on your user habits for your viewing on
our site.
Your Information In Relation to Others We Link To
You may be able to access other websites through our site. When you do
so you are doing so subject to their policies regarding privacy and
data collection and you should read those sites' privacy policies to

shop at such sites, you should read their privacy policies to make sure
you agree to them before making purchases.
Sharing Information with Advertisers or Other Third Parties
We may disclose anonymous information about user habits,
characteristics and user patterns, based on aggregate user statistics

Sharing Information with the Government or As Otherwise Required by Law
We may be required by law or government agency to disclose both Active
and Passive Information you have provided to us. If you were referred
by an affiliate partner of ours, your name and email address may be
shared with them when you place an order at our site.
How Do We Secure Active Information and Passive Information?
We secure your personal information submitted by you by using
reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, or
accidental loss or destruction of Active Information and Passive
Information. Your postings on this site and other communications you
may have with us via email or snailmail may not be secure unless we
advise you that security measures are in place prior to your sending
