Beasurvivor.com does not collect personally identifiable
information about Members or other Beasurvivor.com users ("Users")
except when such individuals specifically provide such information
on a voluntary basis. A Member's or User's access to and use of the
Beasurvivor.com Site or services constitutes information voluntarily
given by the Member or User.
b. Use of Registration Information. Personally identifiable
information of individual Members and Users will not be sold or otherwise
transferred to unaffiliated third parties without the Member's or
User's prior consent. Beasurvivor.com stores the Internet Protocol
(IP) address of your computer when you visit our site. This information
is only used to create broad demographic summaries of where our Members
and Users come from: for example, we know what percentage of Members
or Users come from Europe or Africa, but our use of the IP addresses
does not include identifying who those users actually are. However,
Beasurvivor.com may use registration information and other voluntarily
submitted information in the following ways:
• To provide our editors with information
that is useful in developing
new features and services for Beasurvivor.com Members and Users;
• To provide advertisers with aggregate - never individual
- information
about our Member base and User usage patterns; and
• To allow us to potentially vary advertising based on Member
and User
preference.
Beasurvivor.com reserves the right to perform statistical
analyses and
profiling of Member and User behavior and characteristics in order
to
measure interest in and use of the various areas of the site and to
inform
advertisers of such information. Beasurvivor.com will provide only
aggregate
data from these analyses to third parties; no personally identifiable
information will be disclosed. Beasurvivor.com may sometimes permit
third
parties to offer subscription and/or registration-based services through
Beasurvivor.com. In this event, Beasurvivor.com is not responsible
for any
actions or policies of such third parties and Members and Users should
check
the applicable privacy policy of such party before providing personally
identifiable information.
It is not possible for a Member or User to delete his
or her profile from
our database, nor is it feasible to delete all traces of a Member's
or
User's activity in the system. Messages posted to any boards are examples
of
user activities that are not feasible to delete. However, we do offer
you
the opportunity to request deletion of your email address-the only
individually identifiable piece of information about your account
- from
Beasurvivor.com's database.
Beasurvivor.com may send email updates to Members.
If you wish to have your email address deleted from our database,

that when they
voluntarily disclose personally identifiable information (for example,
user
name, e-mail address) on the bulletin boards or chat areas of
Beasurvivor.com, that information, along with any substantive information
disclosed in the Subscriber's or User's communication, can be collected
and
correlated and used by third parties and may result in unsolicited
messages
from third parties. Such activities are beyond the control of
Beasurvivor.com. Beasurvivor.com makes no warranties about the
discoverability of members' identity by methods beyond our control.

technology to allow
Subscribers and Users to move more quickly through our site. Cookies

small text files a website can use to recognize repeat users and facilitate
the user's ongoing access to and use of the site. Generally, cookies
work by

the
assigning site. They do not come onto a user's system nor do they
pose a
threat to a user's files. Subscribers and Users should be aware that
Beasurvivor.com cannot control the use of cookies by advertisers or
third
parties hosting data for Beasurvivor.com. However, if a Subscriber
or User
does not want information collected through the use of cookies, there
