HOW INFORMATION MAY BE COLLECTED
We may collect information from you in several different areas on the
Site, including but not limited to those described below:
Registration: You may be asked first to complete a registration form and
provide personally identifiable information; you may also be asked to
choose a username and password in order to take advantage of certain
features the Site may choose to offer, including, but not limited to,
newsletters, contests or other services.
Cookies: As with many websites, the Site uses standard technology called
“cookies,” which are small data files that are transferred to your
computer when you allow your browser to accept cookies. Cookies
automatically identify your web browser to the Site whenever you visit the
Site, and make using the Site easier for you by saving your passwords,
user profiles and preferences. Accepting cookies allows you, among other
things, to personalize your experience on the Site. If you do not want
information collected through the use of cookies, you generally can opt
out of providing this information by turning the cookies off in your
browser; however, some areas of the Site may not be available if you have
disabled the use of cookies.
IP Addresses and Click-stream Data: We may collect IP addresses and/or
click-stream data for purposes of system administration and to report
aggregate information to our advertisers and sponsors. An IP address is a
number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you access
the Internet. Our computers identify your computer by its IP address. When
you request Web pages from the Site, our computers log your IP address.
Click-stream data is information collected by our computers when you
request web pages from the Site. Click-stream data may include such
information as the page served, the time, the source of the request, the
type of browser making the request, the preceding page view and such other
non-personal information. This data helps us determine how visitors arrive
at the Site, what type of content is most popular, what particular kinds
of content and advertising visitors are interested in, and the like.
Transaction Information: If you order any information from our Site or
subscribe for any of the services offered on our Site, we will request
certain information from you, including financial information such as a
credit card number and expiration date and general contact, billing and
shipping information. We will use this information to complete the

products or other services that you order, and to invoice you. Such
information is collected and stored through encrypted means for your
protection.

WITH WHOM THE INFORMATION MAY BE SHARED
At times, we may share your personally identifiable information with
others for various purposes. The following outlines the ways in which we
may share your information with others:
Third Party Service Providers: We utilize other businesses, certain
services and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. They may have
access to personally identifiable information needed to perform their
functions, but may not use it for other purposes. Those third parties may
include their own privacy policies, as noted on their respective websites.
Aggregate Information: We may share aggregate information such as
demographics and Site usage statistics to advertisers, sponsors or other
organizations. When this type of information is shared, the other parties
do not have access to your personally identifiable information.
Opt-in and Opt-out Programs: Throughout the Site you may be presented with
opportunities to receive special offers from third parties. An
opt-in/opt-out message will ask you if you would like your information to
be shared. If you do choose to have your information shared, in an effort
to protect you, third parties who have access to personally identifiable
information must abide by the current Site privacy policy. However, we are
not responsible for the privacy practices of these other companies, and
you should review the privacy practices of such web sites prior to
providing your personally identifiable information.
Third-Party Ad Serving & Audience and Traffic Measurement Services: The
Site may use a third party network advertiser to serve the advertisements
on the Site or may use a traffic measurement service to analyze the
traffic on the Site. Network advertisers are third parties that display
advertisements based on your visits to this Site and other websites you
have visited. Third-party ad serving enables us to target advertisements
to you for products or Web sites you might be interested in. Audience and
Traffic Measurement Services allow us to collect anonymous traffic and
behavior information from our Site by monitoring anonymous visitor
activity. Although advertisers or other companies do not have access to
the Site cookies, the Site's advertisers, sponsors and/or traffic
measurement services may themselves set and access their own cookies on
your computer if you choose to cookies enabled in your browser. Cookies
allow third party advertisers to show you advertisements or content you
might be interested in. Other companies' use of their cookies is subject
to their own privacy policies, not this one. Please contact us at
info@creativeagency.com
in order to learn more about the information collection practices and
"opt-out" procedures of third party ad servers we may use.
Business Transfers: The Site may be sold along with its assets, or other
transactions may occur in which your personally identifiable information
is one of the business assets transferred. In such a case, your personally
identifiable information, which we have gathered, may be one of the
business assets we transfer.
Legal Process: In the event we are required to respond to subpoenas, court
orders or other legal process your personally identifiable information may
be disclosed pursuant to such subpoena, court order or legal process,
which may be without notice to you.

LINKS TO OTHER WEB SITES
You should be aware that when you are on the Site you could be directed to
other sites beyond our control. For example, if you "click" on a banner
advertisement, the "click" may take you off the Site onto a different
website. This includes links from advertisers, sponsors and partners that
may use the Site's logo as part of a co-branding agreement. These other
websites may send their own cookies to you, independently collect data or
solicit personal information and may or may not have their own published
privacy policies. If you visit a website that is linked to our Site, you
should consult that site's privacy policy before providing any personal
information.
While no method of data transmission is guaranteed against unlawful third
party interception or other misuse, we use commercially reasonable efforts
to ensure protection of your data including industry-standard encryption
and offline security methods in our physical facilities.

providing any personal data about yourself.
