What personally identifiable information is collected from Visitors?
JAPOON collects information in several
ways from different parts of our web site. The primary goal of JAPOON in
collecting personal information is to provide you, the user, with a
customized experience and to assist your navigation throughout this web
site.
When you visit our web site, our web
server collects basic visitor information about you that includes your
ISP's domain, the time you accessed our web site, and the pages from within
our web site that you visit. The web server may also collect other
information such as the web browser that you are using (which may also
include operating system information) and the page that you came from
before visiting this page on our server.
JAPOON may collect aggregated,
anonymous data about Visitors, including, for example, the number of unique
views received by the Web site, the domains from which such Visitors
originate, and similar information that does not identify any particular
User.

How do we use the
information collected from Visitors?
The basic user information collected
is used to help us analyze web traffic and to improve the content of our
web site. Cookies may be used to facilitate your customer interaction with
us. Cookies are small pieces of information that a web site can store
in a designated file on your computer. Cookies allow a web application to
respond to you as an individual. By gathering and remembering information
about your preferences, the web application can tailor its operation to
your needs, likes, and dislikes.
We may from time to time disclose to third parties aggregate information on
our web site's traffic profile. For example, Internet advertising companies
may require this data to help us better target our advertisements on our
web site(s) and/or other web sites.
Note that our site may provide links to products and services offered by
other companies; the company's web site that you link to will be able to
determine that you linked from our web site.

What information is
collected from Customers?
JAPOON collects information in several
ways from different parts of our web site.
When you sign up for JAPOON's services, you provide us with both contact and billing information. Contact and Billing information typically includes your name, address, phone number and domain name.

account status, choice of services, and customer logs. In addition, we may
store customers' electronic mail and other communications as a necessary
incident to the transmission and delivery of those communications.

How can you access,
update or delete your information?
We will provide you with the means to
ensure that your personal information is correct and current.

How do we use the
information collected from Customers?
We use the contact information you
provide us to establish our service for you. We use payment information for
payment processing purposes only. We create and maintain other information
such as customer account status, choice of services, and customer logs in
the normal course of providing service.
JAPOON may share customer information with selected partners/third parties,
for example, to provide you with information about products, which might be
of interest to you, or to enable you to take advantage of special partner
programs. JAPOON may also use customer information to provide customers
with system information or information about new or upgraded products.
We will not otherwise disclose customer personal and account information
unless we have reason to believe that disclosing such information is
necessary to identify, make contact with, or bring legal action against
someone who may be causing harm or interfering with the rights or property
of JAPOON, our customers, or others, or where JAPOON has a good faith
belief that the law requires such disclosure.
JAPOON also will not, except for reasons stated below, disclose to third
parties the contents of any electronic mail or other electronic
communications that JAPOON stores or transmits for its customers. The
circumstances under which JAPOON will disclose such electronic customer
communications are when:
- It is necessary in order to provide
service to the customer;
- It is necessary to protect the legitimate
interests of JAPOON and its customers;
- It is required to cooperate with
interception orders, warrants, or other legal process that JAPOON
determines in its sole discretion to be valid and enforceable; and
- It is necessary to provide to a law
enforcement agency when the contents are inadvertently obtained by
JAPOON and appear to pertain to the commission of a crime.
JAPOON disclaims any intention to
censor, edit, or engage in ongoing review or surveillance of communications
stored on or transmitted through its facilities by customers or others.
JAPOON will, however, review, delete, or block access to communications
that may harm JAPOON, its customers or third parties. The grounds on which
JAPOON may take such action include, but are not limited to, actual or
potential violations of JAPOON's Terms of Service.
Please note, however, that JAPOON reserves the right to send bulletins and
other important information regarding our services at our discretion.

What are the kind
of security precautions that are in place to protect the loss, misuse, or
alteration of your information?
Other than authorized personnel of
JAPOON, you are the only person who has access to your personal
information. Your account is password-protected to prevent unauthorized
access.
We recommend that you do not divulge
your password to anyone. JAPOON will never ask you for your password in an
unsolicited phone call or in an unsolicited email. As an extra security precaution,
you may want to logoff once you have completed a communications session
with our servers via FTP, Telnet, SSH, your Control Panel, or other means.
This is to ensure that others cannot access your personal information and
correspondence if you share a computer with someone else or are using a
computer in a public place like a library or Internet cafe.
Unfortunately, no data transmission
over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while
we strive to protect your personal information, JAPOON cannot ensure or
warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our
online services, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your
transmission, we make our best effort to ensure its security on our
systems.

What else should
you know about your online privacy?
Ultimately, you are solely responsible
for maintaining the secrecy of your passwords and/or any account
information. Please be careful and responsible whenever you're online.

Can changes be made
to this Policy?
JAPOON may modify this Privacy Policy
at any time. This Privacy Policy was last revised on May 4, 2001
