What Kinds of Information
Does
Ryanda International
Collect and Use?
The only personally identifiable information we collect about
visitors is provided voluntarily. In general, you can visit our
Web site without telling us who you are or revealing any personal
information about yourself. However, some portions of our Web
site may be accessible only to users who have registered with
us (and who may be asked to provide certain information as part
of the registration or login process). In addition, our Web servers
may use "cookies" (described below) to collect information
about visitors such as domain names, but not your e-mail addresses.
This information may be aggregated to measure such things as the
number of visits, average time spent on the site, number of pages
viewed, and methods by which our site was found.
Ryanda International
uses such information to evaluate the use of our site and
to continuously improve the content and services being provided.
At times we may ask you for contact information or conduct on-line
surveys in order to better understand your needs so that we can
provide you with a customized experience. If we wish to use this
information other than as set forth in this statement, we will
let you know at the time of collection. We will take commercially
reasonable steps to safeguard this information from unauthorized
access.
When you access your account information, order a service or make
a payment on-line, request product or service information, send
us e-mail, register to receive news or information alerts, a click
wrap agreement or enter a contest that we are sponsoring, we will
ask you to provide individually-identifiable information to us.
Except as otherwise provided below under the heading "Who
Has Access to This Information?", when you supply information
about yourself for a specific purpose, we use the information
for that purpose and to manage the internal operations and security
of our Web site consistent with the terms of use and policies
established from time to time governing this site. Such purpose
may involve the disclosure of such information to unaffiliated
companies/vendors where necessary to and for the limited purpose
of processing your request, processing a transaction authorized
by you or providing you with products or services.
Who Has Access to This
Information?
Unless we specifically disclose it to you at the time of collection
or subsequently obtain your approval, we will not make visitor
or customer-specific information that is gathered on our site
available to unaffiliated organizations for commercial purposes
unrelated to the business of

.
Ryanda International
and its affiliated companies use this information to help
us deliver the services you have requested, or to design or offer
specific products or services that we believe will be useful to
you. While we may use this information to contact you or to send
materials to you for marketing purposes, we will take commercially
reasonable steps to safeguard such information from unauthorized
access by any other parties. As we strive to meet the needs or
our customers, we may disclose personally identifiable information
we collect, as described above, to companies and vendors that
perform marketing or other services on our behalf or with whom
we have joint marketing agreements so that we may provide a full
range of products and services to you. Our policy is to prohibit
these companies from otherwise selling or disclosing the personal
information we provide.
We believe it is necessary to share information in order to
investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities,
suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the
physical safety of any person, violations of
Ryanda International
Terms of Use, or as otherwise required by law.
Certain federal, state and local laws or government regulations
may require us to disclose non-public personal information about
you. In these circumstances, we will use reasonable efforts to
disclose only the information required by law, subpoena or court
order to be disclosed.

processed through our Web site require personal transactional
information provided by you to be sent in a "Secure Session"

encrypts - or scrambles - your financial or credit card account
information to help prevent unauthorized parties from reading
it. Sophisticated encryption and security layers are used to protect
certain personal information which is transmitted by visitors
