SLI will not disclose your personal information to third parties without your consent. SLI may disclose user information in special cases when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be causing injury to or interference with (either intentionally or unintentionally) SLI’s rights or property, SLI users, or anyone else that could be harmed by such activities. SLI may disclose user information when we believe in good faith that the law requires it. SLI may additionally share aggregate information about our users with advertisers, business partners, sponsors and other third parties. This data is used to customize SLI’s content and advertising to deliver a better experience for our users.
There are cases where SLI may ask you for personal information such as your name, email address, and birth date. SLI may need to collect this information for fulfilling prizes, tracking/verifying compliance with SLI policies as well as federal, state and local laws and/or for editorial and feedback solicitation purposes.

To keep you in control of your personal information and the communications directed to you, we allow you to opt-out of the following services: sharing your information in our member directory, receiving communications from SLI about new features or services, and receiving communications about offers from third-party companies that offer a product or service that we think would be of value to you. If a guest objects to such use for any reason, he/she may stop that use by modifying his/her member information online. Information provided when purchasing products from any of our online stores may be used for marketing and promotional purposes and is subject to the opt-out processes described on, or linked to, each order form.
POLICIES FOR TEENS (INDIVIDUALS 13 TO 17 YEARS OF AGE)
Teens are required to provide the e-mail address of a parent or guardian and a notification message is sent to the parent or guardian of all guests who are 13 to 17 years of age which identifies the information supplied at registration and allows the parent or guardian to be aware of and participate in the guest’s members online experience.
USE OF IP ADDRESSES
An IP address is a number that’s automatically assigned to your computer whenever you’re surfing the Web. Web servers — the big computers that “serve up” Web pages — automatically identify your computer by its IP address. SLI may collect IP addresses for the purposes of system administration, to report aggregate information to our advertisers, and to audit the use of our site. When guests request pages from SLI sites, our servers log the guests’ IP addresses. We do not normally link IP addresses to anything personally identifiable, which means that a users session will be logged, but the user remains anonymous to us. We can and will use IP addresses to identify a user when we feel it is necessary to enforce compliance with our house rules or terms of service or to protect our service, site, customers or others.
COOKIES
Cookies allow a Web site to transfer data to an individual’s hard drive for record-keeping purposes. Cookies simplify Web-surfing by saving your preferences while you’re at our site. We never save passwords or credit card information in cookies. The use of cookies is an industry standard. By showing how and when guests use a site, cookies help us see which areas are popular and which are not. Many improvements and updates to the site are based on such data as total number of visitors and pages viewed. This information is most easily tracked with cookies. We use the information from cookies to provide services better tailored to our users needs. Most browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies or indicate when a cookie is being sent. Please note, you may occasionally get cookies from our advertisers. SLI does not control these cookies. The use of advertising cookies sent by third-party servers is standard in the Internet industry.
LINKS TO THIRD PARTY SITES
Users should be aware that when you are on and SLI site, you could be directed to other sites that are beyond our control. There are links to other sites from SLI pages that take you outside our service. For example, if you “click” on a banner advertisement or a search result, the “click” takes you off the SLI site. This includes links from advertisers, Center sponsors and partners that may use SLI’s logo as part of a co-branding agreement. These other sites may send their own cookies to users, collect data or solicit personal information. Please keep in mind that whenever you give out personal information online — for example, via message boards or chat — that information can be collected and used by people you don’t know. While SLI strives to protect its user’s personal information and privacy, we cannot guarantee the security of any information you disclose online and you do so at your own risk. SLI’s policy does not extend to anything that is inherent in the operation of the Internet, and therefore SLI’s control, and is not to be applied in any manner contrary to applicable law or governmental regulation.
SECURITY
The importance of security for all personally identifiable information associated with our guests is of utmost concern to us. We exercise great care in providing secure transmission of your information from your PC to our servers. 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, SLI can’t ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our online products or 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. You SLI Account is password protected so that only you can access it and view the member information relevant to the account. We recommend that you do not divulge your password to anyone.
