This privacy policy is applicable to the Website[s] accessible at
http:/www.oocities.org/Executive Consulting and (the "Site"), which is
operated pursuant to a strategic relationship between Geocities and Agents we employ (collectively, the "PROVIDERS",
"we", "our", or "us"). The purpose of this privacy policy is to disclose
to you what information we may collect, how we may collect it, with whom
we may share it, and certain other matters related to such information,
including the choices you have regarding our collection of information and
our use and disclosure to other parties of information we may have collected
from you.
TYPES OF INFORMATION THAT MAY BE COLLECTED
The following are the types of information we may collect:
Information You Provide Us
Personal information that you provide to us, such as your user ID and password,
name, email address, telephone number, physical address, birth date, gender
or zip code or other information may be collected via the Site.
Site Usage Information
We may receive and store certain types of information whenever you visit
the Site. For example, we may collect click-stream data and your IP address.
Email Communications
When you open emails from the Site, we may receive a confirmation noting
you opened an email from us, if your computer supports such capabilities.
We also may keep track of what emails we send you and what emails you may
be receiving from us and our subsidiaries and affiliates. Additionally,
we keep a record of what types of emails you have opted to and not to receive.
Information from Other Sources
We may receive information about you from other sources and add it to your
personal information.
HOW INFORMATION MAY BE COLLECTED
We may collect information from you in several different areas on the Site,
including but not limited to those described below:
Registration
You may be asked first to complete a registration form and provide personally
identifiable information; you may also be asked to choose a user ID and
password in order to take advantage of certain features the Site may choose
to offer, including, but not limited to, Newsletters, Contests, Forums,
or other subscription-based services.
Newsletters and Site Emails
We may offer free newsletters to share information with you about the Site,
about us and our affiliates and subsidiaries, or about our business partners
and advertisers and sponsors. You may receive a newsletter either by registering
for a particular newsletter or in conjunction with a special feature or
membership for which you have registered on the Site. You may cancel your
free email subscription by following the instructions provided on the Site
or, in some instances, in the designated area of certain newsletters or
emails.
Contests or Sweepstakes
We may operate contests and sweepstakes through the Site which may require
registration. Your personally identifiable information may be used to contact
you for winner notification, prize delivery confirmation or other related
purposes. We may ask your permission to allow us to post publicly some of
your information on the Site, such as on a winners page, in the event you
win a contest or sweepstakes. We will not post your information without
your permission. In some instances, a third party advertiser or sponsor
may operate or host a contest or sweepstakes on the Site, and collect your
information. In those cases, where we are not the operator or host of the
contest or sweepstakes, we have no control over the information collected
and accordingly urge you to review the advertiser's or sponsor's privacy
policy applicable to the contest or sweepstakes before participating.
Surveys or Voting
From time-to-time we may request personally identifiable information from
you via surveys or voting polls. Participation is voluntary and you will
have the opportunity to decide whether or not to disclose information. At
times, you may have to register to vote or to take part in a survey.
Cookies
As with many Websites, the Site uses standard technology called "cookies,"
which are small data files that are transferred to your computer when you
allow your browser to accept cookies. Cookies automatically identify your
Web browser to the Site whenever you visit the Site, and make using the
Site easier for you by saving your passwords, purchases, and preferences.
By tracking how and when you use the Site, cookies help us determine which
areas are popular and which are not. Many improvements and updates to the
Site are based on data obtained from cookies. Accepting cookies allows you,
among other things, to personalize your experience on the Site. Cookies
may also allow the Site to present to you advertising which may be of interest
to you. If you do not want information collected through the use of cookies,
you generally can opt out of providing this information by turning the cookies
off in your browser; however, some areas of the Site may not provide you
with a personalized experience if you have disabled the use of cookies.
IP Addresses and Click-stream Data
We may collect IP addresses and/or click-stream data for purposes of system
administration and to report aggregate information to our advertisers and
sponsors. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your
computer whenever you access the Internet. Our computers identify your computer
by its IP address. When you request Web pages from the Site, our computers
log your IP address. Click-stream data is information collected by our computers
when you request Web pages from the Site. Click-stream data may include
such information as the page served, the time, the source of the request,
the type of browser making the request, the preceding page view and other
such non-personal information. When analyzed, this data helps us analyze
how visitors arrive at the Site, what type of content is most popular, what
type of visitors in the aggregate are interested in particular kinds of
content and advertising, and the like.
Transaction Information
If you order any information from our Site, buy any of our products or subscribe
for any of the services offered on our Site, we will ask you to complete
an order form that will request certain information from you, including
financial information such as a credit card number and expiration date and
general contact, billing and shipping information. We will use this information
to complete the transaction that you have requested, i.e., to deliver the
information, products or other services that you order, and to invoice you.
[Such information is collected and stored through encrypted means for your
protection.]

WITH WHOM THE INFORMATION MAY BE SHARED
At times, we may share your personally identifiable information with others
for various purposes. The following outlines the ways in which your information
may be shared with others:
- Agents: We employ other businesses, certain services and individuals
to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders,
sending e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists, Site
analysis, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit
card payments, and providing customer service. These entities have access
to personally identifiable information needed to perform their functions,
but may not use it for other purposes.
- Promotional Offers: We may send offers by email to you on behalf of
other partners. When we do this, we do not give that partner your name
and address. If you do not want to receive such offers, you may opt out
in response to the email, or change your preferences by visiting [Insert
link to URL where preferences can be changed].
- Aggregate Information: We may share aggregate information such as
demographics and Site usage statistics with advertisers, sponsors or other
organizations. When this type of information is shared, the other parties
do not have access to your personally identifiable information.
- Opt-in and Opt-out Programs: Throughout the Site you may be presented
with opportunities to receive special offers from third parties. An opt-in/opt-out
message will ask you if you would like your information to be shared.
If you do choose to have your information shared, in an effort to protect
you, third parties who have access to personally identifiable information
must abide by the current Site privacy policy. However, we are not responsible
for the privacy practices of these other companies, and you should review
the privacy practices of such Web sites prior to providing your personally
identifiable information.
- Partners Subsidiaries and Affiliates: We may share your information
(including, without limitation, personally identifiable information) with
subsidiaries and affiliates of PROVIDERS.
- Business Transfers: The Site or a PROVIDER may be sold along with
its assets, or other transactions may occur in which your personally identifiable
information is one of the business assets transferred. In such a case,
your personally identifiable information, which we have gathered, may
be one of the business assets we transfer.
- Legal Process: In the event we are required to respond to subpoenas,
court orders or other legal process your personally identifiable information
may be disclosed pursuant to such subpoena, court order or legal process,
which may be without notice to you.
Links to Other Web Sites
This privacy policy applies only to this Site. When you are on the Site
you could be directed to other sites beyond our control. For example, if
you "click" on a banner advertisement, the "click" may take you off the
Site onto a different Web site. This includes links from advertisers, sponsors
and others that may use the Site's logo as part of a cobranding agreement.
These other Web sites may send their own cookies to you, independently collect
data or solicit personal information and may or may not have their own published
privacy policies. If you visit a Website that is linked to our Site, you
should consult that site's privacy policy before providing any personal
information.
SECURITY
This Site incorporates reasonable safeguards to protect the security, integrity,
completeness, accuracy and privacy of the personal information that we may
collect and we have put into place reasonable precautions to protect such
information from loss, misuse and alteration. Certain personally identifiable
information, such as credit card information, is transferred to our computers
utilizing encryption software. Only those employees who need access to your
information in order to do their jobs are allowed access. Our security policies
are reviewed periodically and revised as required.
A SPECIAL NOTE FOR PARENTS CONCERNING PRIVACY
The Site is a general audience site. We do not currently collect any personal
information from children under the age of thirteen on the Site. If in the
future, the PROVIDERS knowingly collect personally identifiable information
from children, we will do so in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy
Protection Act of 1998 (15 U.S.C. 6501 et seq.) including, without limitation,
obtaining necessary parental consents. We encourage you to visit the Direct
Marketing Association's Web site (www.the-dma.org) and explore the Get CyberSavvy!

policy.
