We do not share personally identifiable visitor information with ANYONE outside of our organization unless the visitor specifically requests that we share that information.  For example, if a visitor requests information from a supplier using one of our online request forms, the visitor's contact information will be provided to the specified supplier so the supplier can provide the visitor with the requested information.  Visitors may receive email from us responding to or pertaining to an inquiry or contact they initiated.  However, visitors will not receive emails from us for any other reason.

Discussion Boards and Chat Sessions are public and care should be taken when disclosing personal information while participating in those activities.

How We Collect Your Information

The first thing to remember about privacy is that there is only so much information that any website can collect without your answering of specific questions. The Home & Style Online Magazine! logs IP addresses (in other words, the location of your computer on the Internet) for system administration, troubleshooting, and to examine overall traffic trends. (For example, IP addresses help us determine the percentage of people coming from various online gateways, such as Yahoo! or America Online.) This information, in aggregate form, is recorded for administrative purposes only. IP addresses are not linked to any personal information.

You can browse Home & Style Online Magazine and read our editorial content without registering or providing any personal information. However, in order to take advantage of our personalized services, you are required to provide us with information such as your name, email address, real-world address, event date, and role in the event. We collect similar information from users who choose to participate in our contests and promotional events. We always let you know before we collect any personal information from you.

We offer message boards, personal web pages, chat rooms and blogs on our website. Any information you voluntarily disclose when you post to one of these areas becomes public and may be used by us for online and offline promotional and commercial uses. If you choose to post comments on our website, you should be aware that any personally identifiable information you submit is public and can be read, collected, or used by other users of those areas, and could be used to send you unsolicited messages. We are not responsible for any personally identifiable information you choose to submit.

If you choose to use our "Send to a Friend" feature, which allows you to send an e-mail message to specified addresses and which contains a link to an article on our website that you think may be of interest to your friend(s), we will ask you for the e-mail address(es) that the message should be sent to. We will automatically send a one-time e-mail inviting the recipient(s) to read the article. We store this information for the sole purpose of sending this one-time email and tracking the success of our "Send to a Friend" feature. In some instances, third-party sponsorships and promotions on our site offer similar functionality, and in those cases, the information is not shared with the third party. Your friend may contact us at info@homeandstyleonline.com to request that we remove this information from our database.
