The Information We Collect

To help us achieve our goal of providing the highest quality services, we collect and apply information from our interactions with visitors, subscribers and users to the AmosWEB site. Because we respect your privacy, we have procedures to ensure that your Personal Information is handled in a safe, secure, and responsible manner. The information we receive and collect depends on what a visitor, subscriber or user does when visiting one of the AmosWEB sites.

In general, AmosWEB users are able to visit many of our Web pages without telling us who they are or revealing any information about themselves. As discussed under "Usage Data" below, we may track the Internet domain or "Internet protocol" addresses from which users visit us and analyze this data in the aggregate to determine usage for trends and statistics. Individual users will remain anonymous, unless they voluntarily tell us who they are.

Usage Data

AmosWEB only uses Usage Data in the aggregate -- that is, we look at the data on a collective basis, in summary form, rather than on an individual basis. This data helps us determine the extent to which our visitors use certain parts of an AmosWEB site, which, in turn, enables us to make the AmosWEB pages as appealing as possible.

User Communications

As a benefit of subscription membership, AmosWEB site users or subscribers may receive the following communications from us:

• Communications related to subscription maintenance activities. These communications may include, without limitation, notices regarding material changes to AmosWEB site policies, service updates, service enhancements, and account management procedures. Since these communications are necessary to ensure AmosWEB provides its users or subscribers with the highest quality of services, our users or subscribers are not permitted to opt out from receipt of these communications.


• Communications containing information about AmosWEB products and services. We may send promotional e-mails and other outbound communications to AmosWEB site users or subscribers regarding products and services from AmosWEB. Any AmosWEB site user or subscriber that does not wish to receive such product and service communications can choose to remove his or her contact information from our contact list at any time by following the instructions at the bottom of any promotional e-mail

Disclosure Exceptions

AmosWEB will disclose information we maintain when required to do so by law; for example, in response to a court order or a subpoena. AmosWEB also may disclose such information in response to a law enforcement agency's request.

How often has this happened to you? You've packed a tasty picnic lunch, donned your spiffy-looking swimwear, loaded up the beach blanket and umbrella, then headed for the artificial waves of the local Happy-Time Gala-World Fun-Land Water Park expecting bright sunshine and warm temperatures. However, upon reaching Happy-Time Gala-World Fun-Land Water Park you find that the economy has fallen into a deep recession, with high unemployment rates and sluggish production, and the owners of the Happy-Time Gala-World Fun-Land Water Park have been forced to turn off the artificial wave machine, dismantle the water slides, and drain the pool. (It's also raining and 50 degrees. We will, however, ignore those problems because this isn't A Pedestrian's Guide to Meteorology.)
