The Site takes firm, proactive steps to protect your personal information. The Club is providing this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our commitment to privacy by explaining the types of information we collect and how that data may be used. The Club has established links to this Privacy Policy on its homepage and in the Terms & Conditions Agreement ("Agreement") to make it visible and quick to locate.

As an important starting point, The Club will never use personally identifiable information except as detailed in The Club's Privacy Policy. Further, by using the Site you consent to the terms of the site's Privacy Policy as well as the Terms and Conditions of The Club.

The Club does not link an IP address to a personally identifiable computer or mobile device. By monitoring IP addresses, The Club can: determine the number of people who view each particular page of the Site to better determine the most popular pages and/or features and in turn better meet the needs of Site users; provide select promotional offers that may address your specific areas of interest and/or "wish list" items.
Additionally, The Club may use the data that you voluntarily provide and/or that we request to: notify you of special offers and/or promotions that may be of direct interest to you.

The Club will only send personal information about you when: we have your consent; need to fulfill a transaction that you have ordered and/or requested; are required by valid legal proceedings to do so. Also, should The Club or a substantial portion of its assets be acquired, customer information would most likely become an asset of the acquiring party. The Site may also employ a commonly used Internet tool known as "cookies," which captures pertinent data and permits the Site to "recognize" you when you return. Site members and guests have the option to disable cookies directly on their computer browser, which in turn may diminish their experience and functionality with the Site.

Links to Third Party Sites
