Privacy Policy Publications International, Ltd. (PIL), is aware that privacy and the protection of personal information are concerns for many users of the Internet. As a general policy, we do not attempt to automatically collect personal information about users of any PIL website. However, we do collect certain non personal site-user information through the operation of PIL's Internet servers. This information is used to improve the performance of the site, enhance the user experience, and ensure the satisfaction of site visitors. The information tracked includes the type of operating system in use, the type of browser used by the visitor, the pages visited, and the data requested. We use this information internally to analyze site traffic on an anonymous basis. From time to time PIL may distribute analyses and summary reports about the operation of its website, each of which may contain anonymous information. E-mail addresses and other personal information or data are known only when it is voluntarily submitted. Personally identifiable information that is collected in connection with site users is retained by PIL and is not sold or otherwise transferred outside the company unless permission to do so has been requested by PIL or its representatives and granted by the individual users. PIL websites offer links to other Internet sites. We make every effort to link only to other sites that share a respect for website users' privacy. However, PIL is not responsible for the content or privacy practices of these other sites.
