How We Gather Information From Users
How we collect and store information depends on the page you are visiting, the activities in which you elect to
participate and the services provided. You can visit many pages on our site without providing any information.
Other pages may prompt you to provide information, such as when you register for access to portions of our site,
sign up for membership, request certain features (e.g., newsletters, chat or bullitenboards and other services),
sign up for a newspaper subscription or make a purchase. You may also provide information when you participate
in contests, voting and polling activities, message boards and chat rooms and other interactive areas of our site.
Like most Web sites, Simply J.D. & Co.'s websites also collects information automatically and through the use
of electronic tools that may be transparent to our visitors. For example, we may log the name of your Internet
Service Provider or use "cookie" technology. Among other things, the cookie may store your user name
and password, sparing you from having to re-enter that information each time you visit, or may control the number
of times you encounter a particular advertisement while visiting our site. As we adopt additional technology, we
may also gather information through other means. In certain cases, you can choose not to provide us with information,
for example by setting your browser to refuse to accept cookies, but doing so may limit your ability to access
certain portions of the site or may require you to re-enter your user name and password. Additionally we may not
be able to customize the site's features according to your preferences.
What We Do With The Information We Collect
We will use your information only as permitted by law. Aggregated Information (information that does not personally
identify you) may be used in many ways. As one example, we may combine information about your usage patterns with
similar information obtained from other users to learn which pages are visited most or what features are most attractive.
Aggregated Information may occasionally be shared with our advertisers and business partners, but cannot be used
to contact you individually.
We also collect information to enhance your visit and deliver more individualized content and advertising. For
example, we may use Personally Identifiable Information collected on Simply J.D. & Co.s' websites to communicate
with you regarding our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, products and services offered by Simply J.D. &
Co.s' websites, affiliates and partners, administration of contests, processing e-commerce transactions and other
topics we think you might find of interest. We reserve the right to share this information with other Simply J.D.
& Co.s' websites, affiliates and partners, including for example our entities in which Simply J.D. & Co.
has an ownership interest (collectively, "Affiliates"). This policy does not apply to any Affiliate's
use of such information.
Personally Identifiable Information collected by Simply J.D. & Co.s' websites may also be used for other purposes
including but not limited to site administration and troubleshooting. Certain third parties who provide technical
support for the operation of our site (our Web hosting service provider, for example) may access such information.
As we continue to develop our business, we may sell, buy, merge or partner with other companies or businesses.
In such transactions, user information may be among the transferred assets. We may also disclose your information
in response to a court order, at other times when we believe we are reasonably required to do so by law, in connection
with the collection of amounts you may owe to us, and/or whenever we deem it appropriate or necessary to give such
information to law enforcement authorities. Please note we may not provide you with notice prior to disclosure
in such cases.
Your Choice To Opt Out
The services and information on Simply J.D. & Co.s' websites is supported by advertising revenue and a controlled
program of e-mail marketing is an important element of our online business. Like other websites, we sometimes permit
our advertising and promotional partners to e-mail you about services, features, products, special offers and unique
content we believe might interest you. If you prefer not to receive e-mail communications sent directly from our
advertisers or promotional partners, you will be given an opportunity to decline before you provide us information
we might use for this purpose. If you decline at the time you provide us such information, we will not share the
Personally Identifiable Information you provide with non-Affiliated advertisers for such purposes, though we may
on occasion send you information on their behalf.
Affiliated Sites, Linked Sites and Advertisements
Simply J.D. & Co. expects its partners, advertisers and third-party affiliates to respect the privacy of our
users. However, third parties, including our partners, advertisers, affiliates and other content providers accessible
through our sites, may have their own privacy and data collection policies and practices. For example, during your
visit to our sites you may link to, or view as part of a frame on a Simply J.D. & Co.s' websites page, certain
content that is actually created or hosted by a third party. Also, through Simply J.D. & Co.s' websites you

While on our site, our advertisers, promotional partners or other third parties may use cookies or other technology
to attempt to identify some of your preferences or retrieve information about you. For example, some of our advertising
is served by third parties and may include cookies that enable the advertiser to determine whether you have seen
a particular advertisement before. Through features available on our site, third parties may use cookies or other
technology to gather information. Simply J.D. & Co.s' websites does not control the use of this technology
or the resulting information and is not responsible for any actions or policies of such third parties.
Please be careful and responsible whenever you are online. Should you choose to voluntarily disclose Personally
Identifiable Information on our sites, such as in message boards, chat areas or in advertising or notices you post,
that information can be viewed publicly and can be collected and used by third parties without our knowledge and
may result in unsolicited messages from other individuals or third parties. Such activities are beyond the control
of Simply J.D. & Co. and this policy.
