and our products and services. This statement will be continuously
assessed against new technologies, business practices and our
customers' needs.

When you visit our Web site you may provide us with two types

site.

for these electronic communications that we employ in the maintenance
of information received by mail and telephone.
2.
Web Site Use Information
Similar
to other commercial Web sites, our Web site utilizes a standard
technology called "cookies" (see explanation below,
"What Are Cookies?") and Web server logs to collect
information about how our Web site is used. Information gathered
through cookies and Web server logs may include the date and time
of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at our Web site, and the
Web sites visited just before and just after our Web site. This
information is collected on an aggregate basis. None of this information
is associated with you as an individual.
How
Do We Use the Information That You Provide to Us?
Broadly speaking, we use personal information for purposes of
administering our business activities, providing customer service
and making available other products and services to our customers
and prospective customers. Occasionally, we may also use the information
we collect to notify you about important changes to our Web site,
new services and special offers we think you will find valuable.
The lists used to send you product and service offers are developed
and managed under our traditional corporate standards designed
to safeguard the security and privacy of our customers' personal
information. As a customer, you will be given the opportunity,
at least once annually, to notify us of your desire not to receive
these offers.
What
Are Cookies?
Cookies are a feature of Web browser software that allows Web
servers to recognize the computer used to access a Web site. Cookies
are small pieces of data that are stored by a user's Web browser
on the user's hard drive. Cookies can remember what information
a user accesses on one Web page to simplify subsequent interactions
with that Web site by the same user or to use the information
to streamline the user's transactions on related Web pages. This
makes it easier for a user to move from Web page to Web page and
to complete commercial transactions over the Internet. Cookies
should make your online experience easier and more personalized.
How
Do We Use Information We Collect from Cookies?
We use Web site browser software tools such as cookies and Web
server logs to gather information about our Web site users' browsing
activities, in order to constantly improve our Web site and better
serve our customers. This information assists us to design and
arrange our Web pages in the most user-friendly manner and to
continually improve our Web site to better meet the needs of our
customers and prospective customers.
Cookies
help us collect important business and technical statistics. The
information in the cookies lets us trace the paths followed by
users to our Web site as they move from one page to another. Web
server logs allow us to count how many people visit our Web site
and evaluate our Web site's visitor capacity. We do not use these
technologies to capture your individual email address or any personally
identifying information about you although they do permit us to
send focused online banner advertisements or other such responses
to you.
Sharing
Information with Affiliates
From time to time you may notice offers from outside companies
advertised on our Web site. We take measures to select product
or service providers that are responsible and afford privacy protections
to their customers. However, we cannot make any representations
about the practices and policies of these companies.
Sharing
Information with Strategic Partners
We may enter into strategic marketing alliances or partnerships
with third parties who may be given access to personal information
including your name, address, telephone number and email for the
purpose of providing you information regarding products and services
that we think will be of interest to you. In connection with strategic
marketing alliances or partnerships, we will retain all ownership
rights to the information, and we will not share information regarding
your social security number or other personal financial data.
Notice
of New Services and Changes
Occasionally, we may also use the information we collect to notify
you about important changes to our Web site, new services and
special offers we think you will find valuable. As our client,
you will be given the opportunity to notify us of your desire
not to receive these offers by clicking on a response box when
you receive such an offer or by sending us an email request to
info@av8fx.com.
How Do We Secure Information Transmissions?
When you send confidential personal credit card information to
us on our Web site, a secure server software which we have licensed
encrypts all information you input before it is sent to us. The
information is scrambled en route and decoded once it reaches
our Web site.
Other
email that you may send to us may not be secure unless we advise
you that security measures will be in place prior to your transmitting
the information. For that reason, we ask that you do not send
confidential information such as Social Security or account numbers
to us through an unsecured email.
How
Do We Protect Your Information?
Information
Security.
We utilize encryption/security software to safeguard the confidentiality
of personal information we collect from unauthorized access or
disclosure and accidental loss, alteration or destruction.
Evaluation
of Information Protection Practices.
Periodically, our operations and business practices are reviewed
for compliance with corporate policies and procedures governing
the security, confidentiality and quality of our information.
Employee
Access, Training and Expectations.
Our corporate values, ethical standards, policies and practices
are committed to the protection of customer information. In general,
our business practices limit employee access to confidential information,
and limit the use and disclosure of such information to authorized
persons, processes and transactions.
How
Can You Access and Correct Your Information?
You may request access to all your personally identifiable information
that we collect online and maintain in our database by emailing
info@av8fx.com.
Do
We Disclose Information to Outside Parties?
We may provide aggregate information about our customers, sales,
Web site traffic patterns and related Web site information to
our affiliates or reputable third parties, but this information
will not include personally identifying data, except as otherwise
provided in this Privacy Policy.
What
About Legally Compelled Disclosure of Information?
We may disclose information when legally compelled to do so, in
other words, when we, in good faith, believe that the law requires
it or for the protection of our legal rights.
What
About Other Web Sites Linked to Our Web Site?
We are not responsible for the practices employed by Web sites
linked to or from our Web site nor the information or content
contained therein. Often links to other Web sites are provided
solely as pointers to information on topics that may be useful
to the users of our Web site.
Please
remember that when you use a link to go from our Web site to another
Web site, our Privacy Policy is no longer in effect. Your browsing
and interaction on any other Web site, including Web sites which
have a link on our Web site, is subject to that Web site's own
rules and policies. Please read over those rules and policies
before proceeding.
Your
Consent
By using our Web site you consent to our collection and use of
your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy.
If we change our privacy policies and procedures, we will post
those changes on our Web site to keep you aware of what information
we collect, how we use it and under what circumstances we may
disclose it.
