Automatic Information

Information You Can Access
Examples of information you can access easily at TheInvestorsEdge.com include up-to-date information regarding recent orders; personally identifiable information (including name, e-mail, password, and address book); payment settings (including credit card information); e-mail notification settings; and Your Profile.

The Help feature on most browsers will tell you how to prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, how to have the browser notify you when you receive a new cookie, or how to disable cookies altogether. Additionally, you can disable or delete similar data used by browser add-ons, such as Flash cookies, by changing the add-on’s settings or visiting the website of its manufacturer.

DOES THE INVESTOR'S EDGE SHARE THE INFORMATION IT RECEIVES?
Information about our customers is an important part of our business, and we share customer information only as described below and with subsidiaries The Investor's Edge controls that either are subject to this Privacy Notice or follow practices at least as protective as those described in this Privacy Notice.
Third-Party Service Providers:
In order to keep your information private, third-party providers employed by The Investor's Edge will only collect, use and disclose your information to the extent necessary to allow them to perform the services they provide to us. Certain third-party service providers, such as payment gateways and other payment transaction processors, have their own privacy policies in respect to the information we are required to provide to them for your purchase-related transactions. For these providers, please read their privacy policies so you can understand the manner in which your personal information will be handled by these providers. In particular, remember that certain providers may be located in or have facilities that are located a different jurisdiction than those of The Investor's Edge. So if you elect to proceed with a transaction that involves the services of a third-party service provider, then your information may become subject to the laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which that service provider or its facilities are located.
Examples of third party services include fulfilling orders, delivering packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing search results and links (including paid listings and links), processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. They have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.
Marketing Communications
We may also use your data to communicate with you about new features, events or products offered by us, third party providers, our advertisers and other companies and individuals with which we have a relationship.
Business Transfers:
As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy stores, subsidiaries, or business units. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Notice (unless, of course, the customer consents otherwise). Also, in the unlikely event that TheInvestorsEdge.com or substantially all of its assets are acquired, customer information will of course be one of the transferred assets.
Protection of TheInvestorsEdge.com and Others:
We release account and other personal information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law; enforce or apply our Terms of Use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of TheInvestorsEdge.com, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. Obviously, however, this does not include selling, renting, sharing, or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information from customers for commercial purposes in violation of the commitments set forth in this Privacy Notice.
With Your Consent:
Other than as set out above, you will receive notice when information about you might go to third parties, and you will have an opportunity to choose not to share the information.
HOW SECURE IS INFORMATION ABOUT ME?
We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input.
We reveal only the last four digits of your credit card numbers when confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing.
It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.

Your consent is not a required condition of purchasing any property, goods or services. You may contact the company through the telephone number listed above or +1 (800) 284-0076 as an alternative method to inquiry.
WHAT CHOICES DO I HAVE?
