Privacy Policy and Terms of Use Agreement

The staff of World Online is very sensitive to issues of individual privacy on the Internet. To that end, we provide the following policy on the use of information gathered on BoomerGirl.com:

• BoomerGirl.com gathers identifying information about individuals only when individuals provide that information on a voluntary basis - for instance, in using our feedback or suggestion forms.

It is not the policy of World Online to sell or make available such information to unrelated third parties; occasionally such information may be shared with other divisions of the World Company.

• BoomerGirl.com performs statistical analyses of its server logs to study the use and popularity of various areas of our site. We also look at IP addresses to analyze where we are getting our audience.

We may inform advertisers of the results of such analyses. And under any circumstance, BoomerGirl.com will refer only to general, aggregate usage data from these analyses - never specific identifying information.

• Users should keep in mind that, when posting their user name or e-mail address on bulletin boards or in other User-Posted Content areas, that information, along with any information in their postings, can be read by any third parties and may result in unsolicited messages from other posters or third parties. BoomerGirl.com has no control over that.

• BoomerGirl.com may make use of or refer to user-posted content for the purposes of promotion of BoomerGirl.com. This will mainly involve taking screen shots of a particular area of the site and using that screen shot as a graphic in an advertisement. BoomerGirl.com makes no claim of ownership to such user-posted content.

• BoomerGirl.com employs 'cookies' in certain circumstances. See "Use of cookies" in this section for a description of those circumstances.

• BoomerGirl.com reserves the right to change this policy at any time. When this policy changes, users of BoomerGirl.com will be made aware of the existence of a new privacy statement.
