Our
Commitment To Privacy
This Privacy Policy is designed to assist you in understanding
how we collect and use your personal information in connection
with our advertising, content, e-commerce, promotional and
service programs and other business activities (the "Program")
and to assist you in making informed decisions when using
our site and our products and services and the sites of
our advertisers.
What Information We Collect
When you visit our site we may collect two types of information:
(a) personal information you actively choose to disclose
and (b) information about you that is collected automatically
by our servers or obtained from third parties in a way not
visible to you.
(a) Information you actively choose to provide. By choosing
to participate in our Program, you must become a Member
by disclosing the following information, such as: your email
address, name, address, phone number and birth date. During
the process of registering on our site, participating in
various offers, completing surveys, or sending us emails
or correspondence, we collect additional information that
you may disclose, including for example mobile telephone
number, fax number, payment information (e.g., credit card
number and billing address), credit information, social
security number, health information and personal preferences
regarding lifestyle, products or services.
(b) Passive information collected automatically by our servers
or obtained from third parties. We collect some information
about you simply by virtue of you connecting to our web
site. Our servers automatically identify your computer by
its internet protocol ("IP") address, a unique
string of numbers that is assigned to your computer by your
internet service provider. In addition, to participate in
our program you must allow cookies to be active on your
system. Cookies are a feature of web browser software (Internet
Explorer, Netscape Navigator, etc.) that allows web servers
to recognize which computer is used to access a web site.
Cookies simplify subsequent interactions on our site and
streamline your transactions on related web pages. Information
collected through cookies may include the date and time
of your visits, the site pages you viewed, the time spent
at each page, and the web sites you visited just before
and just after our site. You can disable the cookie function
by following the instructions in the "help" section
of your browser. However, doing so will likely make it impossible
for our system to properly recognize you when you visit
our sites, and consequently may make your participation
in our program more difficult or impossible. In addition
to the information you provide or that is collected automatically
from our system, we may obtain information about you from
our marketing partners or other third parties, and we combine
that information with the information you actively provide
or that is automatically collected by our servers.
The term "Information" is used in this policy
to refer to both types of information described above, as
well as any Information that you provide to us directly
by phone (including any phone number displayed via caller
ID), text or SMS message, U.S. mail or through any other
written or oral communication with us.
How We Use And Share The Information Collected
We use your Information to administer our business activities,
provide customer services such as technical support, distribute
information about changes to our site, and send you, and
enable others to send you, information about products and
services that may be of interest to you and to contact you
or use your Information for any other purpose. We send communications
to you ourselves, and your Information also is shared with
other organizations that may contact you for any purpose
by email, phone, text message, U.S. mail or any other means
of communication.
OPT-IN NOTICE: By Participating, You Expressly "Opt
In" To Receive Information And Grant Us Permission
To Share Your Information
By signing up for our Program you expressly opt in to receive
future information about products and services from us and
from a variety of advertisers to whom we may provide your
Information. We will share your personal information with
third parties, including but not limited to our advertisers,
Test-World.com, for any reason we choose, including without
limitation for the following purposes: (1) to operate our
Program (including the transfer of the information to advertisers
or to third parties who maintain on our behalf a list of
persons having registered with our Program), (2) to permit
advertisers or other third parties to use your Information
for any purpose such as contacting you by email, phone,
text message, U.S. mail or any other means of communication
for any purpose, (3) to confirm you have completed all of
the necessary steps to receive your gift, and (4) as we
are required to do by law, including to notify the IRS that
you received your gift. As a result, we will transfer your
Information to third parties
whose privacy policies and practices are beyond our control.
In addition, in the event we consider a transaction involving
the purchase or sale of our assets or stock, other companies
may review our records, including your Information, to make
business decisions about the transaction. Likewise, your
Information may be transferred to third parties in the event
of the sale or acquisition of our company or any of its
assets. The parties who perform services for us (credit
card processors, merchant banks, our internet service provider,
etc.) also may have access to your information in performing
their services.
Special Note About Information You Provide Directly To Our
Advertisers.
You are able to access certain advertiser's sites through
our site. When you opt to receive information or sign up
for an offer from an advertiser, you may be doing so through
third party sites and with other companies over which we
have no control. You should read those sites' privacy policies
to make sure you agree to them before using such sites.
If you wish to opt out of those advertisers' mailings, you
must do so directly with such advertisers or as otherwise
provided on or through their sites.
Third Party Ad Servers.
We may serve advertisements within our Web Site either ourselves
or by allowing other companies, called third-party ad servers
or ad networks, to do so. In addition, some of our advertisers
may use the services of third-party ad networks. Some of
these third-party ad networks may place a persistent cookie
on your computer. Doing this allows the third-party ad network
to recognize your computer each time they send you an online
advertisement. In this way, third-party ad networks may
compile information about where you, or others who are using
your computer, saw their advertisements and determine which
ads are clicked on. This information allows a third-party
ad network to deliver targeted advertisements that they
believe will be of most interest to you. We do not have
access to or control of the cookies that may be placed by
the third-party ad servers or third-party ad networks. Those
third-party ad networks that use persistent cookies may
offer you a way to opt-out of ad targeting. You may find
more information at the web site of either the individual
third-party ad network or the Network Advertising Initiative
(http://www.networkadvertising.org).
Security Of Your Information.
We use reasonable technical efforts to prevent unauthorized
access or disclosure, or accidental loss or destruction
of Information. However, nearly all Internet transmissions
pass through many servers not controlled by us, and therefore
we cannot guarantee that any information you provide us
or we collect will not be intercepted or altered in that
process. Also, as noted above, your Information is shared
with third parties whose privacy policies and practices
are beyond our control.
How You Can Choose To "Opt Out" Of Receiving Further
Information About Products Or Services
If at any time you do not wish to receive further information
about products or services from us and wish us to cease
providing your Information to third parties, you may choose
to "opt-out" through the Unsubscribe/"Opt-Out"
page of our site or by written request sent by U.S. mail
to our Customer Service Manager at the following address:
Customer Service Department
10211 Pines Blvd
Suite 215
Pembroke Pines, FL 33025
We will promptly update our records upon receiving your
clear instructions to opt-out, but it may take up to ten
(10) business days from our receipt of your request for
the change to be fully effective. If you later give us a
clear statement that you want to receive emails from us
or our advertisers after such date, then that opt-in statement
will supersede any earlier opt-out request. If we have already
provided your email address or other information to an advertiser
or other third party before we receive your opt-out request,
we cannot prevent them from sending or continuing to send
you information or emails and you will need to contact such
third party directly.
How To Correct, Delete Or Access Your Information
If you wish to access, delete or correct the information
you have provided to us through this site, please contact
us through the Contact Us section of our site or through
written request sent by U.S. mail to the Customer Service
Manager at the address listed above.
Special Rights For Residents Of Certain States
If you are a California resident or another state with specific
laws relating to the collection and use of Information,
you may have specific rights not set forth in this policy.
For example, California residents have the right to receive:
a) information identifying any third party company(ies)
to whom we may have disclosed, within the past calendar
year, personal information pertaining to you and your family

more than once per calendar year. Requests made via email

site or the Contact Us page.

AS WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO REVISE THIS PRIVACY POLICY. SUCH

CHANNEL FOLLOWING THE POSTING OF ANY CHANGES TO THE PRIVACY
POLICY CONSTITUTES YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF SUCH CHANGES.
