There is information about your computer hardware and software that is automatically
collected by 1st Notice. This information can include: your IP address, browser
type, domain names, access times and referring Web site addresses. This information
is used by 1st Notice for the operation of the service, to maintain quality of the
service, and to provide general statistics regarding use of the 1st Notice website.
Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information
or personally sensitive data through 1st Notice public message boards, this information
may be collected and used by others.
1st Notice encourages you to review the privacy statements of websites you choose
to link to from 1st Notice so that you can understand how those websites collect,
use and share your information. 1st Notice is not responsible for the privacy statements
or other content on websites outside of the 1st Notice and the TMP family of websites.
Use of your Personal Information

Notice may, from time to time, contact you on behalf of external business partners
about a particular offering that may be of interest to you. In those cases, your
unique personally identifiable information (e-mail, name, address, telephone number)
is not transferred to the third party. In addition, 1st Notice may share data with
trusted partners to help us perform statistical analysis, send you email or postal
mail, provide customer support, or arrange for deliveries. All such third parties
are prohibited from using your personal information except to provide these services
to 1st Notice, and they are required to maintain the confidentiality of your information.
1st Notice does not use or disclose sensitive personal information, such as race,
religion, or political affiliations, without your explicit consent.

Notice, in order to determine what 1st Notice services are the most popular. This
data is used to deliver customized content and advertising within 1st Notice to
customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject
area.
1st Notice Web sites will disclose your personal information, without notice, only
if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary
to: (a) conform to the edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on
1st Notice or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or property of 1st Notice;

Use of Cookies
The 1st Notice Web site use "cookies" to help you personalize your online experience.
A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a Web page server. Cookies
cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are
uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that
issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save
you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned
to a specific page. For example, if you personalize 1st Notice pages, or register
with 1st Notice site or services, a cookie helps 1st Notice to recall your specific
information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your
personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on.
When you return to the same 1st Notice Web site, the information you previously
provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the 1st Notice features that you
customized.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically
accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies
if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience
the interactive features of the 1st Notice services or Web sites you visit.
Security of your Personal Information
1st Notice secures your personal information from unauthorized access, use or disclosure.
1st Notice secures the personally identifiable information you provide on computer
servers in a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access,
use or disclosure. When personal information (such as a credit card number) is transmitted
to other Web sites, it is protected through the use of encryption, such as the Secure
Socket Layer (SSL) protocol.
Changes to this Statement
1st Notice will occasionally update this Statement of Privacy to reflect company
and customer feedback. 1st Notice encourages you to periodically review this Statement
