What Information We Collect and How We Use That Information:
Our registration forms require users to give us contact information that may include name, email address, format preference (HTML vs. Text), address, interests, and similar information. We do not request or store sensitive information from our visitors, such as credit card or social security numbers.

Internet Protocol Address:
We collect an IP address from all visitors to frontiersonline. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer when you use the Internet. We use IP addresses to help diagnose problems with our server, administer frontiersonline, analyze trends, track users' movement, gather broad demographic information for aggregate use in order for us to improve frontiersonline, and deliver customized, personalized content.

Frontiersonline may use cookies to enhance your experience while using our site. Cookies are pieces of information that some Web sites transfer to the computer that is browsing that Web site and are used for record-keeping purposes at many Web sites. Use of cookies makes Web-surfing easier by performing certain functions such as saving your passwords and your personal preferences regarding your use of the particular Web site.

Security:
We take appropriate security measures to protect against unauthorized access to or unauthorized alteration, disclosure or destruction of data. These include internal reviews of our data collection, storage and processing practices and security measures, as well as physical security measures to guard against unauthorized access to systems where we store personal data.

All information provided to frontiersonline is transmitted using SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption. SSL is a proven coding system that lets your browser automatically encrypt, or scramble, data before you send it to us. We also protect account information by placing it on a secure portion of frontiersonline that is only accessible by certain qualified Frontiers employees, contractors and agents who need to know that information in order to operate, develop or improve frontiersonline. Unfortunately, however, no data transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of such information.

Data Integrity:
We take reasonable steps to ensure that the personal information we process is accurate, complete, and current, but we depend on our users to update or correct their personal information whenever necessary.

Tell-A-Friend, eCards:
If a user elects to use our referral service for informing a friend about frontiersonline, or elects to send a friend an eCard, we ask for the friend's name and email address. Frontiers will automatically send the friend a one-time email inviting them to visit frontiersonline, and stores this information for the sole purpose of sending this one-time email.
