Passive data collection and use
Like most Web sites, ClassActSenior.com also collects and logs
information automatically and through the use of electronic tools
that may be transparent to you, such as your IP address, the name
and location of your Internet Service Provider, the type and version
of your browser, the length of time that you stay on
ClassActSenior.com, search queries, your click-stream data, the
location that referred you to ClassActSenior.com and the average
number of pages viewed. If you visit another Web site prior to
browsing ClassActSenior.com, that Web site might place personally
identifiable information within a URL, which may be logged by us.
Your IP address is the identifier assigned to your particular
computer when you access the Internet. Depending on how you connect
to the Internet, your IP address may always be the same, or it may
change each time you access the Internet. Note that logging your IP
address does not in and of itself provide us with your name, e-mail
address or home or work address. We use this log information for
systems administration and troubleshooting purposes and may also use
it to gather general demographic information about you such as your
general location and your Internet Service Provider. To better
provide our services to you and to develop member profiles that
enable us to tailor ClassActSenior.com's services, we may correlate
this log information with other information about you, such as your
registration information or newspaper subscription records. We may
provide to third parties anonymous aggregated (non-personally
identifiable) general information about our Web site and its users.

Affiliated sites, linked sites and advertisements
ClassActSenior.com expects its partners and providers of service and
to respect the privacy of its users. Be aware, however, that third
parties, including our partners and providers of services accessible
through our site may have their own privacy and data collection
policies and practices. For example, during your visit to
ClassActSenior.com you may link to, or view as part of a frame on a
ClassActSenior.com page, certain content that is actually created or
hosted by a third party. You should use common sense when you
navigate the Web and be aware of when you travel outside of
ClassActSenior.com. In addition, you should carefully review the
applicable privacy policies of each Web site you visit and each Web
service you use.
Electronic commerce
For certain electronic commerce services on ClassActSenior.com we
require additional information. To complete these transactions, we
may collect information from you such as your name, credit card
number and other financial or personally identifiable information.
We endeavor to protect the security of your payment information
during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology,
which encrypts information you submit. The Guild of Professional
Photographers uses the credit card and shipping information for the
purpose of completing the transaction and does not provide this
information to third parties except for the providers of the
transaction processing and the issuers of credit cards in order to
process the transaction, or as otherwise set forth in this policy.
Remember the risks when you use the Internet
You should know that when you voluntarily disclose personal
information on the ClassActSenior.com Web site that information can
be collected and used by others and may result in unsolicited
messages from other people. While we do our best to protect your
personal information, we cannot be responsible for information that
you choose to publicly disclose. Further, you are solely responsible
for maintaining the secrecy of any passwords or other account
information. Although we make good faith efforts to store the
information we collect in a secure operating environment that is not
available to the public and to work with responsible third parties,
we cannot guarantee complete security for your information.
In addition, our content providers, partners and other Internet
sites or services that may be accessible through ClassActSenior.com
have separate data and privacy practices that are independent of us,
and we disclaim any responsibility or liability for their policies
or actions. Please contact those sites directly if you have
questions about their privacy policies.
International users
If you are an international user, by using ClassActSenior.com or by
registering for any of its services, you agree that
ClassActSenior.com may collect, use and transfer your personal
information as described in this privacy policy, including transfers
outside the country where you live. If you reside in a country in
the European Union or other jurisdiction that provides access rights
under law, you may access your personal information or have it
corrected or updated by going to your account information page in
the Member Center and personally updating the information in
accordance with applicable law or by contacting us at the address or
e-mail set forth below. In some jurisdictions, you may be charged a
reasonable fee for access to information.
Platform for privacy preferences
ClassActSenior.com supports P3P, the Platform for Privacy
Preferences, which allows us to convey our privacy policies, to the
extent possible, in standardized, machine-readable code. While
ClassActSenior.com supports P3P, the resulting code has inherent
limitations such that it does not fully and may not accurately
express all of our data practices. Some P3P-enabled browsers may
interpret the same P3P code in different ways, while others may
interpret P3P code in a manner inconsistent with the original
intention. Accordingly, your browser's interpretation of the P3P
code should only be considered as a short-hand expression of our
privacy practices. This Privacy Policy remains our primary policy,
and takes precedence over the P3P code or other privacy principals
for all purposes.
