PRIVACY POLICY
Last Updated: October 3, 2005
eFundingSource.Com strives to offer its
visitors the many advantages of Internet technology and to
provide an interactive and personalized experience. We may use
Personally Identifiable Information (your name, e-mail address,
street address, telephone number) subject to the terms of this
privacy policy. We will never sell, barter, or rent your email
address to any unauthorized third party. Period."
How we gather information from users
How we collect and store information
depends on the page you are visiting, the activities in which
you elect to participate and the services provided. For example,
you may be asked to provide information when you register for
access to certain portions of our site or request certain
features, such as newsletters or when you make a purchase. You
may provide information when you participate in sweepstakes and
contests, message boards and chat rooms, and other interactive
areas of our site. Like most Web sites, eFundingSource.Com also
collects information automatically and through the use of
electronic tools that may be transparent to our visitors. For
example, we may log the name of your Internet Service Provider
or use cookie technology to recognize you and hold information
from your visit. Among other things, the cookie may store your
user name and password, sparing you from having to re-enter that
information each time you visit, or may control the number of
times you encounter a particular advertisement while visiting
our site. As we adopt additional technology, we may also gather
information through other means. In certain cases, you can
choose not to provide us with information, for example by
setting your browser to refuse to accept cookies, but if you do
you may be unable to access certain portions of the site or may
be asked to re-enter your user name and password, and we may not
be able to customize the site’s features according to your
preferences.
What we do with the information we
collect
Like other Web publishers, we collect
information to enhance your visit and deliver more
individualized content and advertising. We respect your privacy
and do not share your information with anyone.
Aggregated Information (information that
does not personally identify you) may be used in many ways. For
example, we may combine information about your usage patterns
with similar information obtained from other users to help
enhance our site and services (e.g., to learn which pages are
visited most or what features are most attractive). Aggregated
Information may occasionally be shared with our advertisers and
business partners. Again, this information does not include any
Personally Identifiable Information about you or allow anyone to
identify you individually.
We may use Personally Identifiable
Information collected on eFundingSource.Com to communicate with
you about your registration and customization preferences; our
Terms of Service and privacy policy; services and products
offered by eFundingSource.Com and other topics we think you
might find of interest.
Personally Identifiable Information
collected by eFundingSource.Com may also be used for other
purposes, including but not limited to site administration,
troubleshooting, processing of e-commerce transactions,
administration of sweepstakes and contests, and other
communications with you. Certain third parties who provide
technical support for the operation of our site (our Web hosting
service for example) may access such information. We will use
your information only as permitted by law. In addition, from
time to time as we continue to develop our business, we may
sell, buy, merge or partner with other companies or businesses.
In such transactions, user information may be among the
transferred assets. We may also disclose your information in
response to a court order, at other times when we believe we are
reasonably required to do so by law, in connection with the
collection of amounts you may owe to us, and/or to law
enforcement authorities whenever we deem it appropriate or
necessary. Please note we may not provide you with notice prior
to disclosure in such cases.
Affiliated sites, linked sites and
advertisements
eFundingSource.Com expects its
partners, advertisers and affiliates to respect the privacy of
our users. Be aware, however, that third parties, including our
partners, advertisers, affiliates and other content providers
accessible through our site, may have their own privacy and data
collection policies and practices. For example, during your
visit to our site you may link to, or view as part of a frame on
a eFundingSource.Com page, certain content that is actually
created or hosted by a third party. Also, through eFundingSource.Com you may be introduced to, or be able to access,
information, Web sites, features, contests or sweepstakes
offered by other parties. eFundingSource.Com is not responsible
for the actions or policies of such third parties. You should
check the applicable privacy policies of those third parties
when providing information on a feature or page operated by a
third party.
While on our site, our advertisers,
promotional partners or other third parties may use cookies or
other technology to attempt to identify some of your preferences
or retrieve information about you. For example, some of our
advertising is served by third parties and may include cookies
that enable the advertiser to determine whether you have seen a
particular advertisement before. Other features available on our
site may offer services operated by third parties and may use
cookies or other technology to gather information. eFundingSource.Com does not control the use of this technology by third
parties or the resulting information, and is not responsible for
any actions or policies of such third parties.
You should also be aware that if you
voluntarily disclose Personally Identifiable Information on
message boards or in chat areas, that information can be viewed
publicly and can be collected and used by third parties without
our knowledge and may result in unsolicited messages from other
individuals or third parties. Such activities are beyond the
control of eFundingSource.Com and this policy.
Children
eFundingSource.Com does not knowingly
collect or solicit Personally Identifiable Information from or
about children under 13 except as permitted by law. If we
discover we have received any information from a child under 13
in violation of this policy, we will delete that information
immediately. If you believe eFundingSource.Com has any
information from or about anyone under 13, please contact us at
the address listed below.

Changes to this Policy
eFundingSource.Com reserves the right
to change this policy at any time. Please check this page
periodically for changes. Your continued use of our site
following the posting of changes to these terms will mean you
accept those changes. Information collected prior to the time
any change is posted will be used according to the rules and
laws that applied at the time the information was collected.
Governing law
This policy and the use of this Site are
governed by North Carolina law. If a dispute arises under this Policy

so.
