PRIVACY POLICY

This site is owned and operated by Sage Investors, Inc. (SII). Your privacy on the Internet is of the utmost importance to us. At SII, we want to make your experience online satisfying and safe.

Because we gather certain types of information about our users, we feel you should fully understand our policy and the terms and conditions surrounding the capture and use of that information. This privacy statement discloses what information we gather and how we use it.

INFORMATION SII GATHERS AND TRACKS

SII gathers two types of information about users:

  • Information that users provide in order to subscribe to our data service. Subscriptions to our service are handled through PayPal.com. All financial and banking information is maintained on their servers. PayPal has its own privacy policy which is located here.
  • Information SII gathers through aggregated tracking information derived mainly by tallying page views throughout our sites. This information allows us to better tailor our content to readers' needs.
  • USAGE TRACKING

    SII tracks user traffic patterns throughout all of our sites. However, we do not correlate this information with data about individual users. SII does break down overall usage statistics according to a user's domain name, browser type, and MIME type by reading this information from the browser string (information contained in every user's browser).

    CHILDREN

    Consistent with the Federal Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA), we will never knowingly request personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 18.

    COOKIES

    We may place a text file called a "cookie" in the browser files of your computer. The cookie itself does not contain personal information although it will enable us to relate your use of this site to information that you have specifically and knowingly provided. The only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie can't read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. SII uses cookies to maintain login information while subscribers are logged in to the data sections of our site.

    You can refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser. If you've set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, you will receive the warning message with each cookie. You do not need to have cookies turned on to use the public portions of this site. However, you do need cookies to make use of our data pages as a subscriber.

    USE OF INFORMATION

    We use tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users like and don't like based on traffic to those areas. We do not track what individual users read, but rather how well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better service for you.

    From time to time, we may use customer information for new, unanticipated uses not previously disclosed in our privacy notice. If our information practices change at some time in the future we will post the policy changes to our Web site to notify you of these changes and we will use for these new purposes only data collected from the time of the policy change forward. If you are concerned about how your information is used, you should check back at our Web site periodically.

    SECURITY

    SII operates secure data networks protected by industry standard firewall and password protection systems. Our security and privacy policies are periodically reviewed and enhanced as necessary and only authorized individuals have access to the information provided by our customers.

    AD SERVERS

    We do not partner with or have special relationships with any ad server companies to provide advertising on our pages. We do use ad sever companies to advertise our web site.

    YOUR CONSENT
