PEEL STATEMENT OF PRIVACY

The Internet is a very powerful system and we know that many companies on the Web are violating your privacy by selling the data you give them. Peel does not tolerate the unauthorized sale of user data. We at Peel want you to feel completely at ease with how our site works and how we protect your privacy. This page fully explains the information we collect, what we do with it and how your privacy is protected.

Peel and Your Privacy
Peel may ask you to register and provide information that personally identifies you in certain circumstances. We call this your "Personal Information" and you may be required to include it when you become a member, register for a free email account, register for forums, register for chat, become an associate, inquire about advertising or enter a contest at the site or elsewhere on the Internet.

We use your Personal Information for two primary purposes:

1. To help us create Web site content and services most relevant to you.
2. To alert you to service upgrades, special offers, updated information and new contests from Peel and our partners. If you choose not to register and therefore not provide your Personal Information, you can still use most of the Peel site. However, you will not be able to access areas that require registration.

The Policy
Peel collects general demographic information including Name, Sex, Age, Address, Email Address, Phone Number and interest selects. Peel may provide some or all of this personal information to third parties. You will receive email updates only if you have opted-in to receiving these updates. Additionally, if you have opted-in, but would like to stop receiving updates there are simple removal instructions at the bottom of each email update or you can go to http://peel.com/Other/remove2.php3.

In the event there is a change in ownership of Peel, Inc. or its personal data the acquiring company will gain full rights to your personal data and may use it for their own use.

When there is a change to the privacy policy, an email will go out to our user base notifying them of a change via email.

Third Parties
Peel works with a variety of Third Parties that serve ads to this site. Peel has partnered with these companies, and each company maintains its own privacy policy. Many of them are marketing and/or business to consumer oriented companies Peel feels match its user base’s interests.

We hope that you are finding Peel enjoyable and won't find the small amount of information that we collect problematic. If you have any questions regarding this privacy policy or you believe that we have not followed the information outlined above, please let us know via email at contactus@peel.com

Thanks for using Peel.
