ESP Designs Privacy Policy
ESP Designs, a Texas corporation ("ESP Designs" or "we" or
"us"), provides information of the Internet industry and is committed to
implementing measures designed to protect the privacy of those using its services. We
collect information from users and members of our site. Except as set forth within this
Privacy Policy, the Terms of Use and other published guidelines, we do not release
personally identifiable information about users or members of our site without their
permission. Please note that we review and modify our privacy practices from time to time,
and that those practices are therefore subject to change. We ask that you bookmark and
periodically review this page to ensure continuing familiarity with the most current
version of our Privacy Policy. To contact us about our Privacy Policy, please e-mail us at

The information we gather and how we use it:
We gather two types of information about the users and members of our site: non-personally
identifiable and personally identifiable information. When visitors come to our site, we
may collect and aggregate non-personally identifiable information indicating, among other
things, which pages were visited, the order in which they were visited, and which
hyperlinks were clicked. Collecting such information involves the logging of IP addresses,
operating system and browser software used by each visitor to the site. Although such
information is not personally identifiable, we can determine from the IP address a
visitor's Internet Service Provider and the geographic location of his or her point of
connectivity.
The non-personally identifiable information we collect helps us, among other things, to
monitor our internal operations, improve our services, identify the most popular areas of
our site and determine the effectiveness of our services and promotional activities. It
also helps us make available quality, more useful online services by performing
statistical analyses of the collective characteristics and behavior of the users of our
site, and by measuring demographics and interests regarding specific areas of our site. We
provide statistical information based on this data to advertisers, affiliates, and other
current and potential promotional partners.
We may also use cookies which allow us to serve visitors of our site better and more
efficiently. Cookies are small text files placed on a visitors computers hard
drive if permitted by the browser. Cookies, among other things, make it easier for users
to access our site and services, and help us track the pages that visitors go to,
determine the length of time visitors spend at any particular area of the site, and track
the services visitors choose to use. Cookies are only read by the server that placed them,
and are unable to read data from hard disks, execute any code, send you viruses or destroy
your files. For information on how and whether cookies will be accepted by your web
browser, please refer to the documentation accompanying your browser.
We do not collect any information that personally identifies you unless you knowingly and
willingly provide it. We explicitly ask for information that personally identifies you.
For example, when registering for a personal account, we require that you provide us with
certain personally identifiable information ranging from basic contact information to
payment information to the technical coordinates of your host servers. Also, you have the
option to complete a survey about yourself, your interests and other information about
yourself that will help us, our promotional partners and advertisers offer you value-added
products and services which we believe will be of interest to you.
Although you may not "opt out" of the registration process if you wish to become
a member of the site or an independent marketing affiliate, you may choose to "opt
out" of receiving promotional materials not directly related to services provided by
us and our affiliates, advertisers, or other business partners. If you do not "opt
out" of receiving such promotional materials, we reserve the right to release any
personally identifiable registration information regarding you to third parties who
provide goods or services that we believe may be of interest to you. If you decide that
you would like to discontinue receiving promotional information from such third parties,
please contact those third parties directly, or contact us at info@esp-designs.com and we
will advise such third parties that you wish to discontinue receiving their promotional
information. Note, however, that we cannot and do not assume any responsibility for any
actions or omissions of third parties, including the manner in which they use information
received either from ESP Designs or independently.
We use personally identifiable information to operate this site, and we may occasionally
inform you of new features, services, promotions and products available on this site
offered by us and our promotional partners. We limit our own e-mail solicitations to those
users or members who have not "opted out" of receiving such communications. Our
solicitations are limited in that they, among other things, will clearly indicate the
originator of the e-mail and provide the customer with a method of "opting out"
of receiving future communications of a similar nature. If you decide that you would like
to discontinue receiving information from us about new features, services, promotions and
products, please contact us at info@esp-designs.com.
We reserve the right to disclose information contained within our access logs concerning
any user or member as we reasonably feel is necessary to protect our systems or business.
Specifically, but without limitation, we reserve the right to disclose such when a visitor
or member is in violation of our Terms of Use or other published guidelines, or partakes
(or is reasonably suspected of partaking) in any illegal activity, even without a
subpoena, warrant, or other court order, and to disclose such information in response to
court and governmental orders, civil subpoenas, discovery requests, and as otherwise
required by law. We cooperate with law enforcement agencies in identifying those who may
be using our servers or services for illegal activities. We also reserve the right to
report any suspected illegal activity to law enforcement for investigation or prosecution,
or to suspend or terminate your membership in connection with any suspected illegal
activity.
