W3WebsiteDesign™ is serious about its commitment to your privacy. This Privacy Policy covers the site http://www.w3websitedesign.com (the "Site").

W3WebsiteDesign™ uses the Site to provide you with information about us and our partners, and our respective products and services. We want you to understand what kinds of information we gather about you, how this information is used and safeguarded, and how you can control its use.

By using the Site, you consent to the information practices described in this Privacy Policy.

Information Collection

Personally Identifiable Information is information that can be used to locate you, contact you, or determine your specific identity. W3WebsiteDesign™ collects Personally Identifiable Information from you in several ways:

1. When you use the Site, we may now or in the future ask you for basic information, such as your name, address, e-mail address, phone, fax, user name and password and other basic contact information. You can choose not to provide us with Personally Identifiable Information, but then you may not be able to fully take advantage of certain features of the Site and we may not be able to provide you with certain requested information, products and/or services.

2. In addition to the collection of Personally Identifiable Information, we may also automatically track certain information about you as you visit and use the Site to help us to better understand how the Site is used and to better serve you. This information may include your computer's IP address, the URLs and Site pages you have visited, the number of times you visit a particular Site page, what downloads and/or search queries you have made, how long you spent on particular sections of the Site and on the Site generally, and your browser type. This automatically gathered data includes information provided through the use of "cookies." A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier that is sent to your browser from a web site's computers and stored on your computer's hard drive. Each web site can send its own cookies to your browser if your browser's preferences allow it. W3WebsiteDesign™ may set and access our own cookies on your computer. Information stored by W3WebsiteDesign™ in cookies may be associated with your Personally Identifiable Information in order to identify you as a repeat visitor or customer of the Site, to maintain session information for logged in users, and to track usage trends and patterns in order to better understand and improve areas of the Site.

Disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information

In general, we will not disclose your Personally Identifiable Information to unaffiliated third parties without your express consent. There are, however, some limited circumstances in which we may need to disclose Personally Identifiable Information about a user:

1. For products and services provided by the Site, the information you submit is used by us to provide the information, product or service you have requested. We may also share this information with others, but only to the extent necessary to fulfill your request or to facilitate your use of their services.

2. We may employ other companies to perform supporting functions for the various tools, functionality, products and services offered through the Site on our behalf. We may need to share your Personally Identifiable Information to these companies. However, we will provide them with only that information necessary to perform their functions.

3.For products and services offered to you jointly by us and a third party, your Personally Identifiable Information may be shared with or independently gathered by the third party. In these situations, W3WebsiteDesign™ will only use your Personally Identifiable Information as outlined in this Privacy Policy, but the third party may use the information in different ways. You can tell when a product or service is offered by a third party, because a page of the Sites will be "co-branded" and will display the third party's logo and/or name along with our own, or you will be linked to the third party's site to complete the transaction. Please be aware that each company we do business with has its own policies regarding the use and protection of your information that may differ from those outlined in this Privacy Policy.

4. Unless you specify that you would prefer not to hear from us, we may use the e- mail address you provide at the time of registration to contact you for promotional or other purposes. You may have these communications terminated at any time by opting out through your member profile on the Site, or by clicking on any "unsubscribe" link contained in a promotional e-mail.

5. We may reveal a user's identity (or whatever information we know about that individual) if we believe that user is harming or interfering with other W3WebsiteDesign™ users, anyone else, or violating (either intentionally or unintentionally) our Terms of Use or infringing any of W3WebsiteDesign™'s legal rights.

6.W3WebsiteDesign™ will reveal information, including Personally Identifiable Information, to the extent it reasonably believes it is required to do so by law. If we receive legal process calling for the disclosure of any of your Personally Identifiable Information we will, if permitted by law, attempt to notify you via the e-mail address you supplied during registration within a reasonable amount of time before we respond to the request.

7.W3WebsiteDesign™ may transfer information it collects, including any Personally Identifiable Information, in connection with a sale of all or most of the assets of the company.
