No person under the age of 13 should use our Website without the consent of their parent or legal guardian. We strongly encourage all parents and guardians to monitor the Internet use by their children. If we learn or have reason to suspect that a Website user is under age 13, we will promptly delete any personal information in that user’s account.

Do Not Track Requests
Some Internet browsers incorporate a “Do Not Track” feature that signals to websites that you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Each browser communicates “Do Not Track” signals to websites differently, making it unworkable to honor each and every request correctly. In order to alleviate any communication error between browsers and website, we do not respond to “Do Not Track” signals at this time. As the technology and communication between browser and website improves, we will reevaluate the ability to honor “Do Not Track” signals and may make changes to our policy.

When you become a member or otherwise save your information online, either as a member or a guest, we use your Personal Information to process your membership, to send you automatic emails upon checkout and emails to confirm your membership, or to contact you via email, telephone, direct mail, and/or text messaging, which data charges may apply depending on your carrier. In addition, we may use Personal Information about you and your interests to help us improve our Website design and your online experience. We may contact you, subject to the choices you have made, via email, telephone, direct mail, and/or text messaging, which data charges may apply depending on your carrier, to conduct market research and learn more about how we can improve our services.

Confidentiality And Security Of Personal Information
Protecting your privacy and your personal information is important to us. We have taken reasonable and appropriate measures to prevent the loss, misuse, or alteration of your Personal Information once we receive it (such as, without limitation, using encryption software such as Secure Sockets Layer (“SSL”) technology to protect sensitive information such as credit card, debit card, or any other acceptable method of payment numbers that are transmitted to us and stored on secured servers) but we cannot guarantee absolute safety. No data transmitted over the Internet or stored on a server can ever be guaranteed 100% secured. Thus, while we strive to protect your Personal Information by following generally accepted industry standards, we cannot ensure or warrant the absolute security of any information you transmit to us or archive at this Website. Our employees who have access to information collected on our Website are aware of our Privacy Policy and must abide by it. We need your help to keep our Website secure. User verification on the Internet is difficult and we cannot, and do not assume any responsibility for the confirmation of each user’s purported identity, or the disclosure, destruction, or theft of your Personal Information. Hence, here are some commitments you make to us, without limitation, relating to registering and maintaining the security of your account: (1) You will not provide any false Personal Information on our Website or create an account for anyone other than yourself without permission. (2) You will not create more than one personal account. (3) If we disable your account, you will not create another one without our permission.

(6) You will not share your password and/or online identification/username for both your account with us and your email account that you use with us, let anyone else access your accounts, or do anything else that might jeopardize the security of your accounts. (7) Notify us immediately if you believe your password for either your account with us or your email account may have become known to a third party. (8) Notify us immediately if you are contacted by anyone requesting your online identification/ username and/or password. (9) Notify us immediately if your credit card, debit card, or any other acceptable method of payment, identification/username, or password is lost, stolen, or used without permission. In such an event, we will remove that credit card, debit card, or any other acceptable method of payment number, identification/username, or password from your account and update our records accordingly. And (10) notify us immediately if the Universal Resource Locator (“URL”) in your browser’s address bar does not contain “https://” before the rest of our Website address. The “s” indicates that the page is hosted from a secure server. If any of the foregoing occurs, please notify us immediately by contacting us through our “Contact Us” page and provide us a detailed account of what had transpired. We strongly discourage you from giving anyone access to your online identification/username and password for your account with us and your email account. You are responsible for the confidentiality of your account and password and are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your account and password. If you do give someone your online identification/username and/or password, or fail to adequately safeguard such information, you are responsible for any and all transactions that the person performs while using your account with us or your email account, even those transactions that are fraudulent or that you did not intend or want to perform. In such situations or the like, you acknowledge and agree that (1) neither we nor our affiliates, officers, directors, members, owners, employees, associates, guest speakers, subsidiaries, parents, partners, consultants, agents, representatives, Derek Emery, The Four Plex, and GKIC (collectively, the “Affiliated Parties”) will have any liability to you for any unauthorized transactions made using your password, and (2) the unauthorized use of your online identification/username and password for your account or email account could cause you to incur liability to us.

If you provided us your email address, we may notify you by email. You consent to our use of your email address for this purpose.
