Internet “cookies” save data about individual users, such as your name, password, screen preferences, and the pages of the Site which you viewed.

When you revisit the Site, MCP may recognize you by the Internet cookie and customize your experience accordingly. You may decline Internet cookies, if any, by using the appropriate feature of your Web client software, if available.

Use of Information Collected

Personal data collected by MCP may be used by MCP for many reasons, for example, for editorial and feedback purposes, for marketing and promotional purposes, such as to deliver advertisements and promotions targeted to our users’ interests, for a statistical analysis of users’ behavior, for product development, for content improvement, to contact a user, or to customize the content and layout of the Site. Individually identifying information, such as names, postal and e-mail addresses, phone numbers, and other personal information which users voluntarily provide to MCP may be added to MCP’s databases and used for future calls, mailings, and other communications regarding Site updates, new products and services, upcoming events and other business purposes of MCP.

Aggregate user data may be used for internal purposes, provided to marketing firms and other organizations that provide marketing and/or marketing support services to MCP. In addition, server log information provided by a user may be used to contact the user about the services on other websites owned by MCP for which they have expressed interest. Survey and poll information may be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of the Site, and as otherwise set forth in this Privacy Statement. Information collected via cookies or Web bugs may be used to analyze trends, administer the Site, track a user’s movement, and gather broad demographic information for aggregate use. Personal information contained in e-mails sent by individuals may be used by MCP to answer questions, follow-up on suggestions or complaints, process requests or transactions, or improve the level of service MCP provides.

Disclosure of Information

MCP may disclose or distribute identifiable or non-identifiable information (a) to another entity with which MCP enters or reasonably may enter into a corporate transaction, such as, for example, a merger, consolidation, acquisition or asset purchase; (b) to a third party pursuant to a subpoena, court order or other form of legal process or in response to a request by or on behalf of any local, state, federal or other government agency, department or body, whether or not pursuant to a subpoena, court order or other form of legal process; (c) to a third party if determined by MCP in its sole judgment that such disclosure is appropriate to protect the life, health, property or other interest of MCP or any other person or entity or (d) as necessary to third parties under contract with MCP to improve and provide services associated with the Site. In situations involving bankruptcy or insolvency, the database containing personal data may be treated as an asset of MCP. Identifiable and non-identifiable visitor information and data which visitors provide to MCP also may be provided to third parties that provide products, information, or services which MCP believes that visitors may be interested in directly or indirectly purchasing or obtaining. While MCP may undertake efforts to see that another party to which MCP shares personal information is under a contractual obligation to use the personal information solely for the purposes for which the information was disclosed by MCP, MCP exercises no control over such parties and MCP is not responsible for their conduct, actions, omissions, or information handling or dissemination practices. The collection, use, and disclosure of personally identifiable information discussed in this Privacy Statement may involve a transfer of the information to jurisdictions located outside your country or residence and which may not have equivalent laws and rules regarding privacy and data protection.
