For instance, when you enter a sweepstakes or contest, complete a survey, make a purchase, subscribe to our publication(s), or register for any portion of our services, you are asked to provide information such as your e-mail address, name or phone number. Optional information such as your age or gender may also be requested.

Our servers may also automatically collect information about your computer and associated usage when you visit the Website, including without limitation the type of browser software you use, the operating system you are running, the website that referred you, your Internet Protocol ("IP") address (“Automatic Information”) and your site usage. Your IP address is usually associated with the place from which you enter the Internet, like your Internet Service Provider, your company or your university.

We may use Personal Information to communicate with you about your subscription and customization preferences; our terms of usage and Privacy Policy; services and products offered by Debonair Magazine and partners; and other topics we think you might find of interest. Personally Information collected by us may also be used for other purposes, including but not limited to site administration, troubleshooting, processing of e-commerce transactions, administration of contests, and other communications with you. Certain third parties who provide technical support for the operation of our site (our Web hosting service and our newsletter provider, for example), and coordinate, with us, through their retention, to undertake permitted uses, may have//will have access to such information. We will use your information only as permitted by law.

Automatic Information may be used in many ways. For example, we may combine information about your usage patterns with similar information obtained from other users to help enhance our site and services (e.g., to learn which pages are visited most or what features are most attractive). Automatic Information may occasionally be shared with our advertisers and business partners. Again, this information does not include any Personal Information about you or allow anyone to identify you individually.

We may provide access to your Personal Information when legally required to do so, to cooperate with police investigations or other legal proceedings, to protect against misuse or unauthorized use of our Web Site, to limit our legal liability and protect our rights, or to protect the rights and safety of visitors to this Web Site or the public. In those instances, the information is provided only for that limited purpose.

Cookies. In order to provide better service on our Web Site, we use "cookies". A cookie is an element of data that a web site can send to your browser, which may then store it on your system. Cookies help a web site to remember you as a previous visitor and can enhance your use of a web site by saving your preferences while you are at the site.

A cookie, though, does not retrieve any data from your hard drive, neither does it carry computer viruses nor captures your e-mail address. You can set your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, giving you the opportunity to decide whether to accept it. Some of our advertisers occasionally serve you cookies as well. We do not have control over cookies placed by advertisers.

Security Measures. Debonair Magazine has technical and organizational security measures in place, including firewalls, to protect the information under our control from accidental or unlawful destruction or accidental loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or access.
