This policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we collect,
use, and safeguard the personal information you provide to us and to assist
you in making informed decisions when using our site and our products and
services.

II. Information We Collect
When you visit our site you may provide us with two types of information: personal
information you actively choose to disclose ("Active Information") and use
information collected, in a way not visible to you, on an aggregate anonymous
basis as you and others browse our site ("Passive Information").
A. Active
Information You Choose to Provide
No personal information is required in order to access and browse our web
site and free content. If you wish to gain access to our premium content,
i.e. paid subscription service, we require you to disclose the following
information:
- Your first and last name
- Your
e-mail address and/or PayPal account e-mail address
Any
other information that may be requested is strictly voluntary.
If you choose to post information on our site or maintain e-mail,
snail mail, or telephone contact with us, we may retain such information
also. This information will only be used to provide you with the
requested support information or necessary reply message.
B. Passive Information Collected
Our site may
use a standard technology called "cookies" or similar
technology to collect information about how our site is used. Passive
Information is collected on an aggregate basis without any association
to your personal information so that you remain anonymous. If you
do not wish to transmit "cookie" information about yourself, you
may turn off the cookie function in your web browser; please consult
the "Help" section of your browser to correctly do so.
1. What is a Cookie?
Cookies are a feature of web browser software (Internet Explorer, Netscape
Navigator, etc.) that allow web servers to recognize the computer used to
access a site. They are small pieces of data that are stored on a user's
computer in a folder dedicated for use by the web browser. For example, cookies
may be used on a web site to simplify subsequent interactions with that site
by the same user or to use the information to streamline the user's transaction
on related web pages. This makes it easier for a user to move from site to
site and to complete transactions over the Internet. Cookies should make
your online experience easier and more personalized.
The MathTV.com web site makes use of "session cookies" only.
Session cookies store information needed by the web server in
order to avoid asking you for your password (if any) with each
new page you visit. No other information is stored in session
cookies. (In addition, password information itself is not stored
in session cookies.) Session cookies are deleted when your session
on the MathTV.com site ends (i.e.: when you leave the MathTV.com
site).
2. Log Files
When you visit our site, we collect your IP address
and store it in a "log file". We also collect information about
the browser and operating system you use, and store that information
in log files. We use IP addresses we collect to analyze trends,
administer our site, track users' movements within the site,
track user access just before (but not after) they visit the
site, and gather broad demographic information for use in aggregate
form.

III. How We Use the Information Collected
Broadly speaking, persons we employ directly, or as contractors
or agents at our direction, use Active Information for purposes
of administering our business activities, providing customer
services such as support, and making available other products
or services we think may be of interest to our users. We
may use the Active Information or Passive Information you
provide to us to contact you about changes to our site, new
services, features or products we offer, or other information
we think you shall find valuable. At this time, only those
users who sign up for our mailing list or subscription service
will receive such information via e-mail only.
We use Passive Information to gather information about our users and
to enhance and design our site to make it easier, faster and friendlier
to use. Additionally, cookies help us know information about how many
people visit our site, when they visit and how they use our service.
We do not connect any of this information to your personal information
or e-mail address.

IV. How We Share the Information Collected

and user patterns, based on aggregate user statistics to advertisers
on our site. Your Active Information may only be shared with
