To make such a request, please send an e-mail to optout@americanbeautystar.com.

Please see the “Your Choices” section of this Privacy Policy for additional information.

I. INFORMATION COMPANY COLLECTS:

A. INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE TO US:

Personally identifiable information (“PII”) is information that identifies you or could reasonably be used to identify you personally (such as your real name, address, phone number, or e-mail address). We may ask you to provide us with certain PII, when you register with us, or at other times, such as if you choose to sign-up for an e-mail newsletter, participate in a game, contest, sweepstakes, or other promotional event. We may also ask you to provide us with demographic information, information regarding your interests, or similar information. Providing us with information about yourself is voluntary, and you can always choose not to provide certain information, but then you may not be able to take advantage of or participate in many of the website’s features.

In addition, you may have the opportunity to provide us with the PII, such as name or e-mail address, of a friend (or for a friend to provide such information about you), such as if you chose to e-mail a friend an article, electronic greeting card, trailer or other special feature from our website. The e-mail addresses you supply us for those activities will not be retained for other purposes unless otherwise disclosed at the time you provide such information. We encourage you to send such items only to recipients who are your friends or family or persons with whom you have a relationship so that it doesn’t seem like we are “spamming” them.

If you submit to Company a comment, photograph or other content to be published by Company (either online or offline), we may publish your name or other PII in connection with publishing the content.

We may combine the information about you that we collect at this website with information available to us from other sources. For example, you may provide PII to us at other Company websites, or our co-promoters or sponsors may provide us with information, including PII, about users that choose to participate in a promotional opportunity the co-promoter or sponsor is offering in connection with Company.

If you choose to participate in user forums that may be hosted on the website, you will have the opportunity to share ideas and thoughts about various topics with other visitors. Such user forums may consist of a web blog, chat room, message board and other interactive services we may offer from time to time. Use of user forums is governed by the website’s Terms of Use. User forums are accessible by all visitors or all participating visitors, and users of this service should be mindful that any information posted to the user forums, including any PII, will become public information and will be available to other visitors to the website. Therefore, this Privacy Policy does not apply to protect any information that you may disclose in user forums. Accordingly, if you choose to participate in any user forums, and post information to this section of the website, please use discretion.

B. INFORMATION COLLECTED AUTOMATICALLY:

When your computer contacts our web servers (for example, when you visit this website, view an HTML e-mail, or download an interactive desktop from the website), our web servers automatically collect website usage information. Website usage information is non-identifying information that describes how our visitors use and navigate our website. It can include the number and frequency of visitors to each web page and the length of their stays, browser type, referrer data that identifies the web page visited prior and subsequent to visiting our website, and IP addresses (see below for more information on IP addresses). We also may determine the applicable technology available in order to serve you the most appropriate version of a web page, e-mail or similar service.

We may also collect your location information via your IP address.

Like most websites, this website may sometimes make use of browser “cookies.” Cookies are pieces of information that a website either transfers to your computer’s hard drive or stores temporarily in your computer’s memory for record-keeping purposes. We may use cookies for a number of purposes. For example, we might use cookies when we conduct polls, contests or sweepstakes to limit multiple responses and registrations, to track usage patterns on the website or to analyze web activity.

Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you decline to accept Company cookies, you may not be able to take advantage of or participate in certain features of this website. Each browser is different so please review your browser properties to determine how to disengage cookies.You can also learn more about cookies by visiting www.allaboutcookies.org which includes additional useful information on cookies and how to block cookies using different types of browsers.

D. USE OF PIXEL TAGS:

In addition, we may collect data by using so-called “pixel tags,” “web beacons,” “clear GIFS,” or similar means (collectively, “Pixel Tags”) embedded in the website’s content. A Pixel Tag is an electronic image, often a single-pixel (1×1), that is ordinarily not visible to website visitors and may be associated with cookies on the visitor’s hard drives. The data we may collect includes, among other things, your IP address (see below), which operating system and browser you use, how you navigate to and through our website, and how long you stay on our web pages. This information is anonymous and does not include your PII.

E. USE OF IP ADDRESSES:

An IP address is a number that is assigned to your computer or network when you are on the internet. Collecting IP addresses is standard practice on the internet and is completed automatically by many websites. When you request pages from this website, our servers log your IP address. Company may use IP address for a number of purposes, such as system administration, to report aggregate information to our business partners or to audit the use of the website. We may associate your IP address with the PII you provide.

F. CHILDREN UNDER THIRTEEN (13) YEARS OF AGE:

Company does not knowingly collect any PII from children under thirteen (13) years of age unless the collection complies with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”). If you are under thirteen (13) years of age, do not send any information about yourself to Company. If Company discovers that a child under the age of 13 has provided Company with PII, Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to delete that child’s PII from its system.

II. COMPANY’S USE AND DISCLOSURE OF COLLECTED INFORMATION:

A. USE BY COMPANY:

Company may use your PII for a variety of business purposes, including to provide you with requested information, services or content, to contact you in connection with a contest, sweepstakes or promotion or for other purposes disclosed when you provide the information.

  1. SECURITY

Company takes reasonable security precautions to ensure the security of your PII on our systems, including limiting access to the PII contained on our servers.

Company can neither ensure nor warrant the security of any information you transmit to Company and you do so at your own risk.

V. LINKS

Please be aware that when you are navigating our website or viewing an e-mail or other content provided by Company, you may have the opportunity to click on links that take you outside Company’s service to other websites or online content that are beyond Company’s control. For example, you may encounter links to fan sites, webmaster program participant sites or links from sponsors or partners, which may include Company’s logo as part of a co-branding arrangement. If you “click” on the link to such a third party, the “click” takes you to a third party’s website or online content. Company has no control over and is not responsible for the content of any third party sites to which you link.
