session. Use of this type of cookie is in no way linked to any personally
identifiable information. Cookies used on this website are referred to as
'session' cookies and are automatically deleted once you close your browser We may collect Personal Information
from you at other points on our site that state that Personal Information is
being collected. In the event of a complaint, we may also receive Personal
Information about you from other users or third parties who may communicate
information to us about you in relation to that complaint. Who Collects the Personal Information iJET International, Inc., which owns
and operates the iJET web site, is the company that collects Personal
Information on our site. Our mailing address is: 910F and our customer service email
address is customerservice@ijet.com. In some cases we may collect Personal
Information via a third-party. For example, we may receive data feeds from a
travel agency, Global Distribution System (GDS) such as Sabre, or data
aggregator. How the Personal Information Is Used We use your Personal Information to
provide you with content and services that are tailored specifically to the
profile you provide. We do not sell or provide your
Personal Information to third-party marketers or other third parties unless
you expressly agree in advance to let us do so. In particular, we do not use
your credit card information (if you choose to provide it to us) for any
purpose other than payment processing and order confirmation (using the last
four digits). If you elect to use our referral
service for informing a friend about our site, we ask you for the friend's
name and email address. iJET will automatically send the friend a one-time
email inviting them to visit the site. iJET stores this information for the
sole purpose of sending this one-time email. The friend may contact iJET at ijet_privacy@ijet.com
to request the removal of this information from our database. We use your information on an
aggregated basis (not personally identifiable) to do such things as operate
our site, enhance our site, and sell and deliver messages. We may disclose
aggregated information about our users but that information contains no
Personal Information. With Whom the Personal Information may be shared Although your privacy is very
important to us, due to legal rules beyond our control, we cannot fully
ensure that your private communications and other Personal Information will
not be disclosed to third parties. For example, we may be forced to disclose
information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances,
including sharing information with law enforcement to identify those
individuals who use this site for fraudulent or other illegal activities. Additionally,
in the unlikely event we need to investigate or resolve possible problems or
inquiries, we can, if you authorize us to, disclose any information about you
to law enforcement or other
government officials as we, in our sole discretion, believe necessary or
appropriate. In addition, we may share Personal Information with our
contractors on a need-to-know basis in order to maintain our services
provided that such contractors have agreed to the non-disclosure and
confidentiality requirements we require of our employees. Privacy Protections for Children In order to protect the privacy
interests of younger internet users, we do not allow children under the age
of 13 to use our services. The Choices Available to Users Regarding Collection, Use
And Distribution of the Personal Information You can control the content of your Personal
Information by following the instructions stated below. lease note that if
you provide any information on your own or directly to parties who provide
service to our web site or any other sites you encounter on the Internet
(even if these sites are branded with our branding), different rules may
apply to their use or disclosure of the Personal Information you disclose to
them. We encourage you to investigate and ask questions before disclosing
information to third parties. How Users Can Correct Any Inaccuracies in the Personal
Information If Personal Information changes, or
if you no longer desire our service, we will provide a way for you to
correct, update or remove your Personal Information. This can usually be done
for you at the member information page or by emailing our Customer
Support. You are given the opportunity to
'opt-in' to having your information used for purposes not directly related to
our site at the point where we ask for the information. For example, our
registration form may include an 'opt-in' mechanism so only those users who
wish to share Personal Information with companies other than iJET can
authorize distribution of that information to third parties. You may also 'opt-out' of receiving
non-essential communications directly from iJET. If you no longer wish to
receive our non-service related mailings, you may opt-out of receiving these
communications by replying to the email and placing "unsubscribe"
in the subject line of the email or email us at ijet_privacy@ijet.com. What Kind of Security Procedures We Use to Protect the
Loss, Misuse, or Alteration of Your Personal Information Under Our Control iJET takes precautions to protect our
users' information. When users submit sensitive information via our website,
that information is protected both online and off-line. When our registration and personal
profile forms ask users to enter sensitive information (such as travel,
health and activity information), that information is protected using
industry-standard SSL encryption. While on a secure page, such as our profile
form, the lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator
and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or
open, when you are just 'surfing.' SSL is an acronym for Secure Sockets
Layer, and is a protocol for transmitting private documents via the Internet.
SSL works by using a private key to encrypt data that's transferred over the
SSL connection. Most major browsers support SSL. Changes
to this Privacy Policy This Policy may be amended from
time to time, consistent with changing legal, regulatory, or client requirements. EFFECTIVE DATE: April 21,
