Your privacy is important to us. We only collect information from you that you provide to us via e-mail, but it is our policy to ensure that all personal information remains private and secure. To earn your trust and confidence in StreamlineStaff.com, we are disclosing our privacy practices and the uses of the information we gather.

To protect your privacy, StreamlineStaff.com:
- Will not release personal identifying information about you without first obtaining your consent, unless required to do so by law
- Will not knowingly use personal identifying information from children younger than 13 without parental consent
- Will inform you when we change our privacy policy by e-mail
StreamlineStaff.com reserves the right to amend this Privacy Statement at any time without prior notice, and only the current Privacy Statement may be deemed effective.

When you visit StreamlineStaff.com, we collect some basic information about your computer, such as:
- IP address (your computer's unique signature)
- Operating system (e.g., Windows 95)
- Browser software (e.g., Microsoft Internet Explorer, Netscape)
- Internet Service Provider (e.g., Earthlink, Bell Atlantic)
- Other numeric codes used to identify a computer

The information we collect is aggregated to reflect the population as a whole rather than focused on individuals. We use it to help us better understand the people who visit StreamlineStaff.com.

2. What personal information does StreamlineStaff.com collect about me and how is it used?
During the StreamlineStaff.com signup process, we ask you to supply personal information, including your first name, last name, address, birth date and an alternate e-mail address.

3. What are cookies and how does StreamlineStaff.com use them?
StreamlineStaff.com requires each member to enable cookies to login and use our services.

What is a Cookie?
A cookie is a tiny piece of text asking permission to be placed on your computer's hard drive. If you agree, then your browser adds the text in a small file. If you have set your browser to notify you before accepting a cookie, you will receive a notice that StreamlineStaff.com requests a cookie to be set on your computer.

Why do we use Cookies?
Identification: We use cookies to identify you uniquely. For example, this allows us to pre-populate your login information when you access your account.

Tracking and Maintaining Session info: Once you have logged in, we use the cookie to distinguish between your session and that of the many other people using our service. Setting cookies is currently the best method of maintaining session information over the web.

Are cookies secure?
A cookie cannot contain program code, so it cannot be used as a virus nor can it be used to extract data from your system. When a cookie is set, only the server which set the cookie can access the information in that cookie.

How do I change the way my browser handles cookies?
Most browsers allow three options for handling cookies:
• Accept all cookies
• Warn before accepting a cookie
• Reject all cookies

Some of our web-based services will not function unless your browser is set to accept cookies. Instructions for enabling and disabling cookies can be found through the help menu on most browsers.

If you have continued trouble changing your cookie settings, you may contact our support site for additional help.4. How do I access, change or delete information about myself?
You may change any submitted information by contacting the Streamline Staff office on our Contact Page.

5. How may I protect my privacy on the Internet and within StreamlineStaff.com?
- Know the risks.
If you provide your e-mail address to public domains such as chat rooms or newsgroups, or you provide it to websites which don't respect your privacy, you may begin to receive unsolicited e-mail. Unsolicited e-mail is also known as spam. Although StreamlineStaff.com has strict rules prohibiting spam and we do block certain known groups from sending unsolicited messages to StreamlineStaff.com members, it is generally a good idea to provide your e-mail address only to people or groups that you trust.

- Educate yourself.
Look for a privacy statement on every site you visit on the Web, and search for information on how to protect your privacy.

- Tell your children: "Never talk to strangers!"
Teach children not to give out their names or other personal information. Tell them never to fill out online registration forms without your knowledge and consent.

- Use complex passwords.
If your password is simple, it is also simple for a hacker to break it and gain access to your e-mail account or other private areas. To protect your privacy, you should use complex passwords consisting of very long and awkward keystroke combinations. This makes the hacker's job much more difficult.

This privacy policy is part of our User Agreement and you agree to be bound by all of its terms and conditions.
