* the types of information we collect from you and how that information
is collected;

Information We Collect
We collect information about you when you visit and use our site and
services (collectively, the "Site"), and particularly when
you enter or input information, whether during the course of entering,
initiating, fulfilling and transmitting information or otherwise in
connection with your general activities and/or use of the Site. You
can visit the Site and learn about addkiosk, our related products and
services, and find out how to contact us without giving us any personally
identifiable information.
We collect personally identifiable information
from you in a variety of contexts. For example,
you may be required to provide such information
to us if you: (1) complete an online registration
form (e.g., various sign-up forms for receiving
email newsletters, registering for special offers,
promotions or programs, registering for an account,
entering a contest/sweepstakes or responding
to a survey); (2) fill out an order form to
request information; (3) register to participate
in message boards and chat rooms (if any) and
other community features; or (4) purchase any
products or services from us or any other GIRI's
businesses. Such information may include your
name, email address, mailing address and zip
code, phone number. Of course, you never have
to answer any of the questions we ask you (nor
choose to view or listen to any multimedia content
or otherwise interact with our Site), but refusal
to do so may limit the products or services
we can offer or provide to you.
We automatically track certain information based upon your use of the
Site. We use this information on an aggregated basis to conduct internal
research on our users' demographics, interests, and preferences, and
to improve the Site and user experience. This information may include
the URL that you just came from (whether this URL is on the Site or
not), which URL you next go to (whether this URL is on the Site or not),
your computer browser information, and your IP address.
We use data collection devices such as "cookies" (small text
files that are placed on your computer's hard drive for record-keeping
purposes) to assist us in providing our services. Cookies make using
the Site easier by, among other things, saving your passwords and preferences
for you, helping identify you whenever you return to our Site, and reducing
the number of times you are required to enter your password during a
session. Cookies can also help us provide information that is targeted
toward your interests and preferences. Most Internet browsers are initially
set up to accept cookies. However, you can reset your browser to refuse
all cookies or to alert you when a cookie is being sent (note: you may
need to consult your browser's "Help" area for instructions
on how to do that). If you choose to disable your cookies setting or
refuse to accept a cookie, you may not be able to use certain features
on the Site and you may be required to reenter your password more frequently
during a session.
If you choose to post messages to our message boards, chat rooms or
other message areas or leave feedback for other users, we will collect
that information you provide to us. We retain this information as necessary
to resolve disputes, provide customer support and troubleshoot problems,
and as otherwise permitted by law.
If you send us personal correspondence, such as emails or letters,
or if other users or third parties send us correspondence about your
activities or postings on the Site, we may collect such information
into a file specific to you.

reasonable steps to ensure that any users who

to complete the registration process on our
site) are directed to another site within the
GIRI Group which specifically complies with
the requirements of the Children's Online Privacy
Protection Act, or COPPA.
