audience and take the privacy of our users/members very seriously. The Jarad
Corporation wants you to feel comfortable when visiting our website. This
online privacy policy represents The Jarad Corporation's general privacy
approach to the information practices of our website.
Our approach to responsible information handling is founded
on the basis of the Fair Information Practices Act, the cornerstone of which
is providing notice of our information practices and other privacy aspects in
order to allow individuals to make informed decisions regarding personally

Information Collection
- General Registration
When you visit our website, information may be requested of
you in order for you to participate in our online services and to better
profile our unique visitors so they can have a much more meaningful
experience.
You may browse our website as a visitor without providing
any personal information to us. However, if you want full access to the site,
wish to order our online products and services, or participate in other online
activities (e.g., surveys, registrations, etc.), we request that you provide
us with some additional information about yourself.
Product/Service Purchases
Additional information is requested from users wishing to
purchase products and services from our website. Purchasers have to provide
contact information (such as name and billing address) and financial
information (such as credit card number and expiration date). This additional
information is used for billing purposes and to fulfill customer orders. If we
have trouble processing a customer order, this contact information will be
used to get in touch with the user.
Security
When our order form asks users to enter sensitive
information (such as credit card information), that information is encrypted
where possible. While on a secure page the lock icon on the bottom of Web
browsers such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes
locked, as opposed to un-locked, or open, as will be the case for most of the
time that a user is browsing the Web.
If you make a purchase from our site, the information
obtained during your visit, and the information that you give such as your
credit card number and contact information, is provided to the merchant of
record. These merchants have separate privacy policies, data collection
practices and procedures for protecting your personally identifiable
information. The Jarad Corporation has no responsibility or liability for
these independent policies.
