THE INFORMATION COLLECTION, USE AND DISSEMINATION PRACTICES OF HGF.

1. COLLECTION OF INFORMATION

1.1 Survey Information

HGF collects information from individuals by various methods, including, but not limited to, when an individual voluntarily completes a survey, order form, or a registration page either online or offline, or by means of online or offline surveys, order forms, or registration pages operated by Third Parties (collectively, a “Survey”). (As used herein, “online” means using the Internet, including the Websites, and related technologies, and “offline” means by methods other than online, including in person, in the postal mail, using telephones and cell phones, and other similar means.) In the Surveys, HGF or a Third Party (a “Third Party”) may ask an individual to provide various information to HGF, which may include his or her name, email address, street address, postal/zip code, telephone numbers (including cell phone numbers and carriers), birth date, gender, salary range, education and marital status, occupation, social insurance/security number, employment information, personal and online interests, and such other information as may be requested from time to time (together, “Survey Information”). HGF may also collect information concerning an individual from another source and uses that information in combination with information provided from this web site. Completing the Surveys is completely voluntary, and individuals are under no obligation to provide Survey Information to HGF or Third Party.

1.2 Site Membership or Registration

To the extent registration is required to receive email and possibly postal communications from HGF, this Privacy Policy also applies to consumers that have agreed to receive e-mail marketing from HGF, whether at our Website, via email, on Third Party websites or otherwise. We collect information in certain portions of our Website, where guests provide content submissions and suggestions or participate in interactive online activities (i.e., by way of responding to questions and surveys, community listings, ratings, searches and comparison searches, bidding, purchasing, chat, games, or bulletin boards, etc.). The personal profile information you submit to HGF remains your property, but by submitting that information to HGF, you grant HGF, the right to use that information for marketing purposes. HGF may also use such information for content improvement and feedback purposes. In addition, HGF reserves the right to release current or past member information in the event HGF believes that the membership is being or has been used in violation of the Rules or to commit unlawful acts, if the information is subpoenaed, if HGF is sold or acquired, or when HGF deems it necessary or appropriate. By agreeing to these terms, you hereby consent to disclosure of any record or communication to any Third Party when HGF, in its sole discretion, determines the disclosure to be appropriate

“Subscription” occurs when an end-user registers for HGF’s services, either via registration at our website, via co-registration at a marketing partner’s website, or via a permission pass / opt-out / no-opt mailing. HGF collects personally identifiable information about our subscribers, based on: information gathered at the time of registration, subscriber interaction and response to subsequent electronic mailings and website use, information provided by marketing partners, and information appended from data aggregators. Information collected may include, but is not necessarily limited to: name, email address, postal address, gender, birth date, telephone number, activity, interests, user behavior and other demographic information. This information enables us to better tailor our content to subscribers’ needs and to help our clients to promote and sell their products and services.

1.3 Third Party List Information

HGF collects information from individuals when an individual provides information to a Third Party and HGF subsequently purchases, licenses, or otherwise acquires the information from the Third Party (the “Seller”). Such purchased information may include, but is not limited to, an individual’s name, email address, street address, postal/zip code, telephone numbers (including cell phone numbers and carriers), birth date, gender, salary range, education and marital status, occupation, industry of employment, personal and online interests, and such other information as the individual may have provided to the Seller (together, “Third Party List Information”). When acquiring Third Party List Information, HGF seeks assurances from the Seller that the Seller has a right to transfer the Third Party List Information to HGF and that the Seller has a right to provide offers from Advertisers to the individuals whose personal information is included on the Seller’s list.

1.4 Other Information

Other occasions when HGF obtains information from individuals include (1) when an individual is making a claim for a prize or seeking to redeem an incentive offered by HGF or by a Third Party, (2) when an individual requests assistance through HGF’s customer service department, and (3) when an individual voluntarily subscribes to a HGF service or newsletter (together, “Other Information”).

1.5 Cookies, Web Beacons, and Other Info Collected Using Technology

HGF currently uses cookie and may use web beacon technology to associate certain Internet-related information about an individual with information about the individual in our database. Additionally, HGF may use other new and evolving sources of information in the future (together, “Technology Information”).

a) Cookies

A cookie is a small amount of data stored on the hard drive of the individual’s computer that allows HGF to identify the individual with his or her corresponding data that resides in HGF’s database. You may read more about cookies at cookiecentral.com. Individuals who use the Websites need to accept cookies in order to use all of the features and functionality of the Websites.

b) Web Beacons

A web beacon is programming code that can be used to display an image on a web page (see http://truste.org for more information), but can also be used to transfer an individual’s unique user identification (often in the form of a cookie) to a database and associate the individual with previously acquired information about an individual in a database. This allows HGF to track certain websites an individual visits online. Web beacons are used to determine products or services an individual may be interested in, and to track online behavioral habits for marketing purposes. In addition to using web beacons on web pages, HGF also uses web beacons in email messages sent to individuals listed in HGF’s database.

c) New Technology

The use of technology on the Internet, including cookies and web beacons, is rapidly evolving, as is HGF’s use of new and evolving technology. As a result, HGF strongly encourages individuals to revisit this policy for any updates regarding its use of technology.

d) Usage Tracking

HGF tracks information related to the electronic mailings and web pages viewed by users and subscribers, as well as the hyperlinks clicked by subscribers, while viewing our emails or visiting our websites.

e) Log Files

Log files are used to track and monitor subscriber usage

f) Optional Registration

HGF may offer free voluntary registration to potential subscribers. During such registration, the subscriber is required to supply an email address and other personal information. This information is required if the subscriber wants to participate in Company services.

g) Feedback and Inquiries

You have the ability to contact HGF to provide us with their feedback. HGF uses this information to respond to you and analyze customer service issues.

1.6 Outside Information

HGF may receive information about individuals from Third Parties or from other sources of information outside of HGF including information located in public databases (“Outside Information”).

1.7 Individual Information

As used herein, Individual Information means Survey Information, Third Party List Information, Other Information, Technology Information, and Outside Information, and any other information HGF gathers or receives about individuals.

1.8 No Information Collected from Children

HGF will never knowingly collect any personal information about children under the age of 18. If HGF obtains actual knowledge that it has collected personal information about a child under the age of 18, that information will be immediately deleted from our database. Because it does not collect such information, HGF has no such information to use or to disclose to Third Parties. HGF has designed this policy in order to comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”).

1.9 Credit Card Information

HGF may in certain cases collect credit card numbers and related information, such as the expiration date of the card (“Credit Card Information”) when an individual places an order from HGF. When the Credit Card Information is submitted to HGF, such information is encrypted and is protected with SSL encryption software. HGF will use the Credit Card Information for purposes of processing and completing the purchase transaction, and the Credit Card Information will be disclosed to Third Parties only as necessary to complete the purchase transaction.

1.10 Links to External Websites

HGF’s emails and websites may contain links to external websites. You will be taken to external websites if you click on these links. Your information may be passed from HGF’s database to the external website, and/or external database, for your convenience (e.g. your information may be used to pre-fill a form at a destination website). HGF is not responsible for the privacy practices or content of any external website owner. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any website you visit.

2. USE OF INDIVIDUAL INFORMATION

2.1 Discretion to Use Information

HGF MAY USE INDIVIDUAL INFORMATION FOR ANY LEGALLY PERMISSIBLE PURPOSE IN COMPANY’S SOLE DISCRETION.

The following paragraphs in Section 2 describe how HGF currently uses Individual Information, but HGF may change or broaden its use at any time. As noted above, HGF may update this policy from time to time. HGF may use Individual Information to provide promotional offers to individuals by means of email advertising, telephone marketing, direct mail marketing, online banner advertising, and package stuffers, among other possible uses.

2.2 Email and Unsubscribe Policy

HGF uses Individual Information to provide promotional offers by email to individuals. HGF may maintain separate email lists for different purposes. If email recipients wish to end their email subscription from a particular list, they need to follow the instructions at the end of each email message to unsubscribe.

HGF’s unsubscribe process impacts only the future delivery of electronic mailings disseminated by HGF on its own behalf. You may still receive electronic mailings sent on behalf of Third Parties and your personal information may still be shared with Third Parties for use in offline marketing and data appends, including email appends.

You should also note that unsubscribing from HGF’s electronic mailings will not automatically unsubscribe the subscriber’s information from any Third Party associates and licensees of the data. Since Third Party associates and licensee partners maintain separate databases from HGF, and you will need to unsubscribe from each source individually, if desired. This allows you the freedom to pick and choose which subscriptions to maintain and which to discontinue.

2.3 Content of Email Messages

In certain commercial email messages sent by or for HGF, an Advertiser’s name will appear in the “From:” line, but hitting the “Reply” button will not cause a reply email to be sent to HGF. The “Subject:” line of HGF email messages will usually contain a line provided from the Advertiser to HGF.

2.4 Solicited Email

HGF only sends email to individuals who have agreed on the Websites to receive email from HGF or to individuals who have agreed on Third Party websites to receive email from Third Parties such as HGF. HGF does not send unsolicited email messages. As a result, statutes requiring certain formatting for unsolicited email are not applicable to HGF email messages.

2.5 Targeted Advertising

HGF uses Individual Information to target advertising to an individual. When an individual is using the Internet, HGF uses Technology Information (see also Section 2.7 below) to associate an individual with that person’s Individual Information, and HGF attempts to show advertising for products and services in which the person has expressed an interest in the Surveys, indicated an interest by means of Technology Information, and otherwise. HGF may, at its discretion, target advertising by using email, direct mail, telephones, cell phones, and other means of communication to provide promotional offers.

2.6 Direct Mail and Telemarketing

HGF may use Individual Information to advertise, directly or indirectly, to individuals using direct mail marketing or telemarketing using telephones and cell phones.

2.7 Use of Technology Information

HGF uses Technology Information (1) to match a person’s Survey Information and Third Party List Information to other categories of Individual Information to make and improve profiles of individuals, (2) to track a person’s online browsing habits on the Internet, (3) to determine which areas of HGF’s websites are most frequently visited. This information helps HGF to better understand the online habits of individuals so that HGF can target advertising and promotions to them.

2.8 Profiles of Individuals

HGF uses Individual Information to make a profile of an individual. A profile can be created by combining Survey Information and Third Party List Information with other sources of Individual Information such as information obtained from public databases.

2.9 Storage of Individual Information

HGF stores the Individual Information in a database on its computers. Our computers have security measures (such as a firewall) in place to protect against the loss, misuse, and alteration of the information under HGF’s control. Not withstanding such measures, HGF cannot guarantee that its security measures will prevent its computers from being illegally accessed, and the Individual Information on them stolen or altered.

There is no cost to gain access to personal information.

HGF may ask that the individual put their request in writing. If HGF is unable to give access, HGF will inform the individual within 30 days, in writing, with the reasons for not granting access.

3.6 Do Not Call Registry Waiver
