2. Information
That Is Personally Identifiable
Our registration format requests certain contact information from our Users. We collect information that is personally identifiable through the registration and purchasing process when processing your order. When a User completes an order, the format will require personally identifiable information for each User, including:
Contact information (examples include name, home address, email address)
Demographic information (examples include zip code, telephone area
code, age, birth date, etc.)
The information we have obtained through this process may be used by TheScholarsProgram.com, in connection with processing your order. We also use contact information from the registration format to send the User information about us and when otherwise necessary. Such information may also be used to assess your satisfaction with and to obtain feedback regarding the Service we provide and to tailor the visitor's experience while visiting our Web site.
We may use the contact information we collect to provide, by means other than email, information or offers which we believe will be of value to Users. We may also use the contact information to send our Users information or offers by email which we believe will be of value to them. Users may opt-out of receiving future communications at any time; see the section below regarding "Opt-out".
Finally, the information we collect will be maintained in a file that we may need to review in a variety of other circumstances, such as enforcing our Terms of Use for Users, analyzing and understanding our customers and their needs, and for the administration and provision of our goods and services.
As a User of the Service, you consent to the aforementioned uses of such information and the provision of information to service providers that facilitate the Service, all in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

3. Aggregate

Subject to the other terms of our Privacy Policy, we may aggregate (i.e. assemble on a basis that does not enable one to personally identify you) the data that is acquired under or in connection with this site and/or related to ordering our products and services, including, without limitation, data about the products and services requested and purchased by our Users. Aggregated data may be used by us to improve our Service and for marketing purposes. We may also use such data to determine what types of policies are best suited for our customers and what types of policies our customers request.
Your use
of the Service constitutes your consent to the use of such data on an aggregated
basis.

Like most other Web sites, TheScholarsProgram.com's servers may automatically track certain information about activity on our Web site. This information allows us to keep our Web site running efficiently. This information may include: the browser being used (such as Netscape, Internet Explorer, etc.); your operating system (such as Macintosh, Windows 98, etc.); your IP address; and the referring URL and all company URLs you visit.

In addition,
TheScholarsProgram.com may use "cookies" on certain pages of
our Web site to automatically collect information from a visitor to our Web

us recognize repeat visitors, allowing communication of a personalized welcome
message and tailoring of content to match particular interests.
We also
may use outside advertising companies to display advertisements on our site.
These advertisements may also contain cookies. Some customer data may be shared
with the advertising affiliates on an aggregated basis in accordance with
the other terms of this Privacy Policy. Because cookies are stored on your

decline cookies and you can delete them from your computer. If you decline
"cookies" or delete them from your computer, you will still be able
to access our Web site, but you may find that some areas do not work as smoothly
as when cookies are enabled on your system.
