Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the user s hard drive containing
information about the user. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any
personally identifiable information while on our site. Once the user closes
their browser, the cookie simply terminates. For instance, by setting a cookie

thereby saving time while on our site. If a user rejects the cookie, they may
still use our site. The only drawback to this is that the user will be limited
in some areas of our site. Cookies can also enable us to track and target the
interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site.
Some of our business partners use cookies on our site for example,
advertisers . However, we have no access to or control over these cookies.
Log Files

addresses are not linked to personally identifiable information.
Sharing
We will share aggregated demographic information with our partners and
advertisers. This is not linked to any personal information that can identify
any individual person.
We use an outside shipping company to ship orders, and a credit card
processing company to bill users for goods and services. These companies do not
retain, share, store or use personally identifiable information for any
secondary purposes.

signs up for these services, we will share names, or other contact information
that is necessary for the third party to provide these services. These parties

Security
This website takes every precaution to protect our users
information. When
users submit sensitive information via the website, your information is
protected both online and off-line.
When our registration/order form asks users to enter sensitive information
such as credit card number , that information is encrypted. While on a secure
page, such as our order form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such
as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed
to un-locked, or open, when you are just surfing .
While we use encryption to protect sensitive information online, we also do
everything in our power to protect user-information off-line. All of our users
information, not just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted
in our offices. Furthermore, all employees are kept up-to-date on our security
and privacy practices. Finally, the servers that we store personally
identifiable information on are kept in a secure environment
Supplementation of Information
In order for this website to properly fulfill its obligation to our
customers, it is necessary for us to supplement the information we receive with
information from 3rd party sources.
In order for this website to enhance its ability to tailor the site to an
individual s preference, we combine information about the purchasing habits of
users with similar information from our partners, to create a personalized user
profile. When a user makes a purchase from these companies, the companies
collect and share that purchase information with us so we can tailor the site to
our users preferences.
Special Offers
We will occasionally send new members a welcoming email. Established members
will occasionally receive information on products, services, and special deals.
Out of respect for the privacy of our users we present the option to not receive
these types of communications.
Correction/Updating Personal Information
If a user
s personally
identifiable information changes such as your zip code , or if a user no longer
desires our service, we will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update or
remove that user s personal data provided to us. This can usually be done at the
member information page or by calling CxNewYork.com.

If we decide to change our
privacy policy, we will post those changes on our website so our users are
always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under
circumstances, how we disclose it.
