 PDG-AE
is committed to protecting your privacy and developing technology that gives you
the most powerful and safe online experience. This Statement of Privacy applies
to the PDG-AE Web site and governs data collection and usage. By using the
PDG-AE website, you consent to the data practices described in this statement.
Collection of your Personal Information
PDG-AE collects personally identifiable information, such as your e-mail
address, name, home or work address or telephone number. PDG-AE also collects
anonymous demographic information, which is not unique to you, such as your ZIP
code, age, gender, preferences, interests and favorites.
There is also information about your computer hardware and software that is
automatically collected by PDG-AE. This information can include: your IP
address, browser type, domain names, access times and referring Web site
addresses. This information is used by PDG-AE for the operation of the service,
to maintain quality of the service, and to provide general statistics regarding
use of the PDG-AE Web site.
Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable
information or personally sensitive data through PDG-AE public message boards,
this information may be collected and used by others. Note: PDG-AE does not read
any of your private online communications.
PDG-AE encourages you to review the privacy statements of Web sites you choose
to link to from PDG-AE so that you can understand how those Web sites collect,
use and share your information. PDG-AE is not responsible for the privacy
statements or other content on Web sites outside of the PDG-AE and PDG-AE family
of Web sites.
Use of your Personal Information
PDG-AE collects and uses your personal information to operate the PDG-AE Web
site and deliver the services you have requested. PDG-AE also uses your
personally identifiable information to inform you of other products or services
available from PDG-AE and its affiliates. PDG-AE may also contact you via
surveys to conduct research about your opinion of current services or of
potential new services that may be offered.
PDG-AE does not sell, rent or lease its customer lists to third parties. PDG-AE
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, PDG-AE 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 PDG-AE, and they are required to maintain the
confidentiality of your information.
PDG-AE does not use or disclose sensitive personal information, such as race,
religion, or political affiliations, without your explicit consent.
PDG-AE keeps track of the Web sites and pages our customers visit within PDG-AE,
in order to determine what PDG-AE services are the most popular. This data is
used to deliver customized content and advertising within PDG-AE to customers
whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area.
PDG-AE 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 PDG-AE or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of
PDG-AE; and, (c) act under exigent circumstances to protect the personal safety
of users of PDG-AE, or the public.
Use of Cookies
The PDG-AE 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 PDG-AE pages, or
register with PDG-AE site or services, a cookie helps PDG-AE 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 PDG-AE Web site, the
information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the
PDG-AE 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 PDG-AE services or Web
sites you visit.
Security of your Personal Information
PDG-AE secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or
disclosure. PDG-AE 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 in
compliance with applicable state and federal laws.
Changes to this Statement
PDG-AE will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect company and
customer feedback. PDG-AE encourages you to periodically review this Statement
to be informed of how PDG-AE is protecting your information.

PDG-AE welcomes your comments regarding this Statement of Privacy. If you
