Information InnerSurf gathers
InnerSurf gathers two types of information about users:
1) Data that users provide through optional, voluntary registration on several of our sites, and
2) aggregated tracking information derived mainly by tallying page views throughout our sites. Such information enables us to better tailor our content to readers' needs and help our advertisers better understand the demographics of our audience. 

This information is used solely and exclusively for the purpose of tracking customer software registrations and providing technical support, as is the standard practice in the industry.
InnerSurf does not provide this information to any other third parties under any circumstances.  

Electronic Newsletters
InnerSurf offers free electronic newsletters to users. InnerSurf gathers the e-mail addresses of users who voluntarily subscribe. Customers may remove themselves from any mailing list by e-mailing us. They can also subscribe to the newsletters at the time of registration. 

Surveys
InnerSurf occasionally conducts customer surveys to better target our content and products to our audience. We never share any information about specific individuals with any third party, except as noted previously. 

Contests
InnerSurf offers contests and sweepstakes in which we request certain personal information. The full rules and all information about such contests are clearly posted during such events. Information gathered is used only to verify user identity and to contact winners and/or prize recipients, except when specifically noted otherwise. Again, we do not share information about specific individuals with any third party, except as noted previously. 

Usage tracking
InnerSurf tracks user traffic patterns throughout their sites and this information is correlated with data about individual users. Overall usage statistics, according to a user's domain name, browser type and MIME type gotten by reading this information from the browser string (information contained in every user's browser), are also broken down. InnerSurf also tracks and catalogs the search terms that customers enter into our search tools, but this tracking is never associated with individual users.  

Cookies
A cookie is a small data file that certain Web sites write to your hard drive when you visit them. A cookie file can contain information such including a user ID that the site uses to track the pages you've visited. But the only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie can't read data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. InnerSurf uses cookies to track the items you add to your shopping card and to enforce security rules regarding software that you download.
If you've set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, you will receive the warning message with each cookie.  

You can refuse cookies by turning them off in your browser. However, you need to have cookies turned on to purchase software through REMOTESHOP. 

Use of the information
InnerSurf uses any information voluntarily given by our users to enhance their experience in our network of sites, whether to provide interactive or personalized elements on the sites or to better prepare future content based on the interests of our users.
As stated above, InnerSurf uses information that users voluntarily provide in order to send out electronic newsletters and enable users to participate in polls and message boards. We send out newsletters to subscribers on a regular schedule (daily or weekly, depending on the newsletter) and occasionally send out special editions when we think subscribers might be particularly interested in something we are doing. InnerSurf never shares newsletter mailing lists with any third parties, including advertisers or partners.  

We use tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users like and don't like based on traffic to those areas. InnerSurf does not track what individual users read, but rather how well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better service for you.  

We track search terms entered in our search function as one of many measures of what interests our users. But we don't track which terms a particular user enters.  

InnerSurf creates aggregrate reports on userdemographics and traffic patterns for advertisers and partners. InnerSurf never shares individual personal information with anyone.  

Opt-Out Policy
InnerSurf gives users options wherever necessary and practical, such choices include:  

• Opting not to receive our electronic newsletters when registering for a site
• Opting not to provide certain personal information when registering for a site or service
• Opting not to participate in certain interactive areas, which completely alleviates the need for any information from our users

Unsubscribe Policy
Users may unsubscribe to any of our electronic newsletters at any time by e-mailing us directly, or replying to any newsletter.
