Collection of your

anonymous demographic information, which is not unique to you, such as your ZIP
code, age, gender, preferences, interests and favorites.

statistics regarding use of the ibb Web site.
Please keep in mind that if you directly

ibb public message boards, this information may be collected and used by others.
Note: ibb does not read any of your private online communications.
ibb encourages
you to review the privacy statements of Web sites you choose to link to from ibb
so that you can understand how those Web sites collect, use and share your information.
ibb is not responsible for the privacy statements or other content on Web sites
outside of the ibb and ibb family of Web sites.
Use of your Personal Information
ibb collects and uses your personal information to operate the ibb Web site and
deliver the services you have requested. ibb also uses your personally identifiable
information to inform you of other products or services available from ibb and its
affiliates. ibb may also contact you via surveys to conduct research about your
opinion of current services or of potential new services that may be offered.
ibb
does not sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties. ibb may, from
time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners about a particular
offering that may be of interest to you. In those cases, your unique personally
identifiable information (e-mail, name, address, telephone number) is not transferred
to the third party. In addition, ibb may share data with trusted partners to help
us perform statistical analysis, send you email or postal mail, provide customer
support, or arrange for deliveries. All such third parties are prohibited from using
your personal information except to provide these services to ibb, and they are
required to maintain the confidentiality of your information. ibb does not use or
disclose sensitive personal information, such as race, religion, or political affiliations,
without your explicit consent.
ibb keeps track of the Web sites and pages our customers
visit within ibb, in order to determine what ibb services are the most popular.
This data is used to deliver customized content and advertising within ibb to customers
whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.
ibb Web sites will disclose your personal information, without notice, only if required
to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a)
conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on ibb or the
site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of ibb; and, (c) act under exigent
circumstances to protect the personal safety of users of ibb, or the public.
Use of Cookies
The ibb Web site use "cookies" to help you personalize your online experience.
A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Web page server. Cookies
cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are
uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that
issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a
convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web
server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize
ibb's pages, or register with ibb site or services, a cookie helps ibb to recall
your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording
your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so
on. When you return to the same ibb Web site, the information you previously provided
can be retrieved, so you can easily use the ibb features that you customized.
You
have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept
cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you
prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience
the interactive features of the ibb services or Web sites you visit.
Security of
your Personal Information
ibb secures your personal information from unauthorized
access, use or disclosure. ibb secures the personally identifiable information you
provide on computer servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from
unauthorized access, use or disclosure. When personal information (such as a credit
card number) is transmitted to other Web sites, it is protected through the use
of encryption, such as the Secure Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
Changes to this Statement
ibb will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect company and customer
feedback. ibb encourages you to periodically review this Statement to be informed
of how ibb is protecting your information.
Contact Information
ibb welcomes your
comments regarding this Statement of Privacy. If you believe that ibb has not adhered
to this Statement, please contact ibb at

reasonable efforts to promptly determine and remedy the problem.
