Privacy Policy

Sandow Media, its affiliates, employees, contributors, writers, editors and its Editorial Board of Advisors (Sandow Media) takes very seriously the private nature of your personal information. This Privacy Policy describes how we treat the information we collect when you visit our Web site and/or register. Please read this notice carefully.

Personal Information

In order to supply you with your Sandow Media e-mail, we need your e-mail address. Similarly, in order to supply you with text messaging services, we need your phone number and your provider information. So that we may provide you with additional services, we may also request your name, geographical coordinates, and telephone number. Sandow Media does not collect any other personal information that you do not expressly provide. Sandow Media will never sell, rent or share your personal information, including your e-mail address, with any third parties for marketing purposes without your express permission. Sandow Media may share your personal information for the purpose of delivering our e-mail to you or as required by law.

Non-Personal Information

We may also request non-personally identifiable information, such as annual income, buying preferences, or age, also known as demographic and profile data, though this information is optional. We may use this data to improve our site and/or tailor your experience at our site, showing you content that we think you might be interested in, and displaying content according to your preferences. We may also share this information with others, such as advertisers interested in advertising in the Sandow Media or our site, in aggregate, anonymous form, which means that the information will not contain any personally identifiable information about you or any other person.

Usage Information

In addition to collecting personal and non-personal information, Sandow Media may also collect non-personal, aggregated information about subscribers' use of our site. This information is not personally identifiable and will only be used to find out how subscribers use our services and site. For example, this information will tell us how much time users spend on our site, from which other sites subscribers came, and to what other sites subscribers go. The collection of this information allows us to, among other things, prepare for traffic load demands and to efficiently deliver quality content.

Review and Access

Upon your request, we will provide you with a summary of the information we collect about you. You will have an opportunity to correct, update or modify this information.

Choice/Opt-Out

If we ever send you information by e-mail concerning new products or services that you did not expressly request, we will provide you with an e-mail address by which you may request no future notices.

Third Party Advertising

Some of the ads appearing on this Web site may be delivered to you by our Web advertising partners. Information about your visit to their site, such as number of times you have viewed an ad (but not your name, address, or other personal information), is used to serve ads to you.

Tracking

Like most sites, Sandow Media makes use of browser "cookies." Cookies are small text files placed on your computer's hard disk by our server. They allow us to quickly check your status as a subscriber and facilitate access to your preferences. Sandow Media will never use cookies to retrieve information from a computer that is unrelated to our site or services.

Sandow Media also uses transparent GIF images. We use these images to track the e-mails that we send out.

Third Party Cookies

In the course of serving advertisements to this site, our third-party advertisers may place or recognize a unique cookie on your browser.

Links to Other Sites

As part of the service, Sandow Media may create links allowing you to access third party sites. Sandow Media is not responsible for the content that appears on those sites and does not endorse these sites. Please consult those sites' individual privacy policies in order to determine how they treat user information.

Security

All information described above is stored on restricted database servers.

Modification to this Policy

Sandow Media may change this policy from time to time, but we will post any changes here.

Terms of Use

Image Terms of Use

Sandow Media sites typically display images as part of blog posts written by our editors. The types of images editors are authorized to use on Sandow Media sites include:

If you think we have published an image or text that infringes your copyright, we will address your concerns; however, if the image falls into one of the categories listed above, we believe that our use of the image is legitimate and we will not remove it from the site.

Please note that we will respond only to notices of alleged infringement that comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. The text of the Act can be found at the U.S. Copyright Office Web Site, http://lcWeb.loc.gov/copyright/

To file a notice of infringement with us, you must provide a written communication (by email with an attached and signed PDF or by fax) that sets forth the items specified below. Please do not send us regular mail, as we may not receive it in a timely fashion. In all cases, if you do not hear a response from us within 10 days of submitting a complaint, please telephone us at (561) 750-0151 to confirm that we received your original complaint. Spam blockers sometimes devour important emails from strangers!

To enable us to address your concerns, please provide the following information:

OR, absent such registration,

We will not comply with requests to remove an image where the complainant cannot prove that they own the copyright in the image in question.

Please note that you will be liable for damages (including costs and attorneys' fees) if you materially misrepresent that any material on our sites is infringing your copyrights.

Indeed, in a recent case a company that sent an infringement notification seeking removal of online materials that were protected by the Fair Use doctrine was ordered to pay such costs and attorneys’ fees. In this case, the company agreed to pay in excess of $100,000. Accordingly, if you are not sure whether material available online infringes your copyright, we suggest that you first contact an attorney.

We also reserve the right to publish your letter on the site(s).
