Privacy Statement

ATW Media Group has created this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for this site: www.atwonline.com.

Information Collection and Use

ATW Media Group collects information from our users at several different points on our website. ATW may send you information about products or services via email. We carefully limit the emails we send you to those we think would be of specific interest to you -- in your industry and with your job function. This may include invitations to web events, tradeshows, roadshows, targeted industry events, and third party offers. You may also be asked to participate in surveys that help us to provide the most useful information for our readers and customers. These often offer an incentive for participation.

Change/Modify/Delete/Deactivate

This site gives users the following options for changing and modifying information previously provided. To modify your listing, please e-mail your changes to webmaster@atwonline.com.

Newsletter

If a user wishes to subscribe to our newsletter, we ask for contact information such as name and e-mail address.

Product Orders

We request information from the user on our order form. Here a user must provide contact information (such as name and shipping address) and financial information (such as credit card number, expiration date). This information is used for billing purposes and to fill customer orders or if we have trouble processing an order. We NEVER share credit card or any financial information with anyone else.

Surveys

From time to time our site requests information from users via surveys. Participation in these surveys is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information. Data requested may include contact information (such as name and e-mail address), and demographic information (such as zip code). Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site.

Cookies

Cookies are alphanumeric identifiers which we transfer to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser and to provide features such as purchasing, and storage of items in your Shopping Cart between visits. Cookies allow you to take full advantage of some of ATWOnline's best features, and we recommend that you leave them turned on.

Cookies can also help us provide information which is targeted to your interests. Cookies are stored on your hard drive, not on our site. Most cookies are "session cookies," meaning that they are automatically deleted at the end of a session. You are always free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, although in that case you may not be able to use certain features on our site.

We use cookies for a variety of purposes, some of which are -- to make our site navigation quicker and more convenient for you, to track whether we already have served you an advertisement, and to analyze page flow and usage. We also use this information to do internal research on our users' demographics, interests, and behavior to better understand and serve our users. This information is compiled and analyzed on an aggregated basis. This information may include the URL that you just came from (whether this URL is on our site or not), which URL you next go to (whether this URL is on our site or not), what browser you are using, and your IP address.

Some of our business partners (for example, advertisers) use cookies on our site. However, we have no access to or control over these cookies.

Log Files

We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the site, track users' movements, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use.

Links

This site contains links to other sites. Please be aware that we, ATW Media Group, are not responsible for the privacy practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every web site that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy statement applies solely to information collected by this Web site.

E-mail site to a friend

If a user elects to use our referral service for informing a friend about our site, we ask for the friend's name and e-mail address. ATW Media Group will automatically send the friend a one-time e-mail inviting them to visit the site. ATW Media Group stores this information for the sole purpose of sending this one-time e-mail. This information, the names and e-mail addresses, will not be used for any other purpose, or made available to others for any reason.

This Privacy Policy may be modified from time to time. Any modifications to
our privacy policy will be reflected first on this page, so check back
often.
