This Privacy Policy governs James Collins’s use and collection of information from you in connection with your use of this Site. This Privacy Policy does not apply to any information you may provide to us through other means, including, via electronic mail, telephone or other means.

We do not collect personally identifiable information about you, except when you provide it to us. If you elect to complete a survey, or otherwise disclose, submit or offer information, comments, feedback, suggestions, and ideas to James Collins, you may be asked to provide certain personally identifiable information such as your name, electronic mail address, mailing address, gender, birth date, age and telephone number.
When you submit your personally identifiable information to James Collins, you are giving your consent to the collection, use and disclosure of your personal information as permitted in this Privacy Policy. IF YOU WOULD PREFER THAT JAMES COLLINS NOT COLLECT ANY PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION FROM YOU, PLEASE DO NOT PROVIDE US WITH ANY SUCH INFORMATION.
In addition to personally identifiable information submitted by you, James Collins may gather information on usage patterns and preferences as visitors navigate through the Site. In gathering this information, James Collins may use (i) "cookies" or (ii) pixel tags (also called "clear or single-pixel gifs" or "web beacons"). Cookies assign to each visitor and user a unique, random number that resides on your computer and may provide James Collins with your IP address. Pixel tags are images contained within pages of this Site that allow James Collins to count users who have visited particular pages of the Site or to access certain cookies. If you would like to turn off cookies when you visit us, click here and we will help you turn them off. Please note that certain functionality of this Site may not work properly if you turn off cookies.

Information that you provide to, or that is gathered by, James Collins will be used to: (i) contact you, including, without limitation, by creating and delivering electronic mail messages, surveys or other communications; (ii) improve this Site; and (iii) market goods and services of third parties to users of this Site.
Without your permission, we will not share the personally identifiable information that you provide to, or that is gathered by, James Collins with any third parties except as otherwise provided herein. We will, from time to time, aggregate your information with the information of other users of this Site. Such aggregated information may be used to instruct advertisers on this Site about this Site's audience but will not identify any individual user personally.
Third Parties
James Collins may retain other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf, including, without limitation, hosting the Site and data analysis. Such third parties may be provided with access to personally identifiable information needed to perform their services, but may not use such information for any other purpose. In addition, James Collins may enter into agreements with third parties for such third parties to market goods and services to users of the Site who have consented to receive promotional messages; provided, however, that any such agreements will (i) permit marketing only to users of this Site who have requested such information and (ii) require such third parties to include conspicuous opt-out procedures in every promotional message sent to permit you to opt out of receiving such messages.
Compliance with Law and Protection of James Collins
James Collins must reserve the right to release information that you submit or that James Collins gathers in order to comply with the law. We may also release such information to enforce or apply the Terms and Agreement of this Site, or protect the rights, property or safety of James Collins, our users, or others.
Future Business Transfers
Our business is constantly changing. As part of that process, James Collins, or substantially all of its assets, may be acquired by another company, whether by merger, sale of assets or otherwise, and information that you submitted or that James Collins gathered may be transferred as part of that transaction.
Protection of Gathered Information
The information that you provide to James Collins is saved in a single, secure database, accessible only by James Collins (and our third party hosting service that is prohibited from distributing this information). To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure correct use of information, we will employ reasonable and current Internet security methods and technologies. Unfortunately, no security system is impenetrable and James Collins cannot guarantee the security of our database, or that information you provide will not be intercepted while being transmitted to us over the Internet.
