Your privacy is our top priority. We have a strict privacy policy and we don't do business with merchants unless they uphold our high standards for protecting members' privacy. We want you to know how we protect member information and what choices you have about its use. We believe our Privacy Policy should give you confidence whenever you use Connecting-America -- 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days of the year.

In addition:

We do not give out any information about what you, as an individual purchase from Connecting-America, except to complete your transactions, or to comply with valid legal process such as a search warrant, subpoena, or court order. We share with outside companies only statistical information about what Connecting-America products or services our members -- as a group -- buy.

Connecting-America may be involved in facilitating your purchases from these other companies, but this individual data is not used for any other purpose.

Each and every Connecting-America employee must abide by Connecting-America's privacy policy. Only authorized Connecting-America employees are permitted to have access to your personal information and such access is limited by need. In addition, any company with which we contract to be our agent in conducting our business is required to adhere to confidentiality agreements to ensure that your information remains safe and secure.

All Connecting-America employees are required to acknowledge that they understand and will comply with this privacy policy. Employees who violate our privacy policies are subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination.

We will keep you informed, clearly and prominently, about what we do with your personal information, and we will advise you if we change our policy.

FOUR TIPS TO HELP YOU PROTECT
YOUR PRIVACY AND SECURITY ONLINE

You can take the responsibility to protect your personal privacy online. Here is a checklist that will help safeguard your privacy and protect the integrity of your computer. We urge you to print these tips and post them near your computer for you and your children.

_____ (1) Your computer cannot catch a virus by opening a piece of e-mail. But if the e-mail asks for a password or billing information, or contains a file attachment from someone you don't know, do not download.

_____ (2) Never download files unless you know what they are and who sent them to you. Computer viruses and destructive programs that could cause your computer to divulge personal information are often transferred in cleverly disguised files.

_____ (3) When you leave the Connecting-America environment to go on the Web, you may want to check the sites you visit to see if they have a privacy policy. Take special care to protect your personal information and your screen name, since the operators of Web sites are not bound by Connecting-America's privacy policy.

_____ (4) Explain to your children that some non-Connecting-America contests could ask them for personal information, and make very clear what information they may or may not provide, under any circumstances.
