Privacy Policy
Your
privacy and safety on the Internet are important to us.
As part of the operation of Allamericanguys.com or any
sites operated by Z Productions Inc. of Florida ("ZPRO"),
we gather certain types of information about ZPRO users,
and we would like to explain the types of information
we gather, what we do with it and how to correct or change
the information.
INFORMATION
COLLECTED BY ZPRO
ZPRO
collects two types of personally identifying information
from users: personal data (such as names and e-mail addresses);
and aggregated data (such as information about traffic
patterns on ZPRO sites, for example how many users log
into ZPRO sites on a daily basis).
PERSONAL
DATA
Personal
data is collected when users provide personal data to
ZPRO, for example in registering for electronic newsletters
or other membership services, in registering for online
bulletin boards, in applying for online modeling opportunities,
in answering surveys, purchasing items from ZPRO, and
registering for contests and other promotional opportunities
provided by ZPRO. As such ZPRO does not collect consumer
data from third party sources and does not engage in spamming
and other illegal Internet activities that violate the
privacy of users.
AGGREGATED
INFORMATION
Aggregated
information, such as which pages users access or visit
and information volunteered by users, such as survey information
and/or site registrations, is collected through various
methods. For example, ZPRO sites collects IP addresses.
An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned
to your computer whenever you're surfing the Web. Web
servers, the computers that "serve up" Web pages, automatically
identify your computer by its IP address, and when you
request a page from ZPRO sites, our servers may log your
IP address. ZPRO does not link IP addresses to anything
personally identifiable, so although your session may
be logged, you will remain anonymous to us. Should ZPRO
collect IP addresses, it is only for the purposes of system
administration and to gather aggregate data about the
volume of use on ZPRO.
USE
OF COOKIES
ZPRO
sites also uses "cookies" to collect information. A cookie
is a small data file that most major Web sites write to
your hard drive for record keeping purposes when you visit
them. Cookies allow ZPRO to measure activity on a particular
ZPRO Site and to improve your user experience, for example
by remembering your passwords and viewing preferences,
thus allowing you to visit various member-only parts of
the Site without re-registering. Cookies are used by ZPRO
to measure activity on a particular ZPRO Site and make
improvements and updates based on which areas are popular
and which are not. ZPRO does not use cookies to retrieve
information from your computer that was not originally
sent in a cookie. Except for personal information voluntarily
provided by you (i.e., during membership registration
or a contest), ZPRO does not use information transferred
through cookies for any promotional or marketing purposes,
nor is that information shared with any third parties
whatsoever.
Most
browsers are initially set to accept cookies. If you'd
prefer, you can set yours to refuse cookies or to alert
you when cookies are being sent. However, it is possible
that some parts of ZPRO Sites, such as member-only areas
and shopping, will not function properly if you do so.
USE
OF INFORMATION COLLECTED BY ZPRO
ZPRO
uses both the personal and aggregated information we collect
for multiple purposes. The information is used to improve
the content of ZPRO Sites, to customize the content and/or
layout of ZPRO Sites for each individual user and to notify
users about updates to ZPRO Sites or promotional offers
or opportunities that we believe will be of interest to
you.
Z
Productions Inc. may also share information with consultants
and affiliates for internal business purposes and may
divulge personal information if such information is subpoenaed,
or if ZPRO believes that any user has committed unlawful
acts, to acts that endanger the health or safety of another
user or of the general public. In some situations, we
will share your personal information, on a confidential
basis, with third parties who perform a particular service
on our behalf, such as sending e-mails. Also, ZPRO may
be sold or transferred to another entity. Should such
an event occur, customer information will of course be
one of the transferred assets.
In
addition, in the event ZPRO plans to post any personal
information on the Site, ZPRO will either notify you of
this possibility when you provide the information and/or,
if possible, when the information is posted. Occasionally,
we may post the name of a user (for example a contest
winner) on one of our sites. ZPRO will notify you of this
possibility when you provide your information or, if possible,
will notify you when the information is posted.
MESSAGE
BOARDS AND CHAT ROOMS
Please
remember that information posted to message boards and
chat areas becomes public information. Use caution when
posting. Users under the age of 18 should be especially
careful not to provide any personally identifying information
while using chat rooms or message boards. Users of ZPRO
chat rooms and message boards must follow acceptable standards
of behavior when posting messages online. ZPRO encourages
parents and guardians to spend time with their children
online, and to be fully familiar with the sites visited
by their children. At various places on ZPRO sites, ZPRO
will ask whether users are under the age of 18, for example
when requesting personal information from users, or ZPRO
may ask for parental consent. However, while ZPRO requests
this information or permission, ZPRO relies on users to
be truthful in responding to these questions.
LINKS
TO THIRD PARTY SITES
It
is important to note that ZPRO sites contains links to
other sites, and that those sites may not follow the same
privacy policies as ZPRO. For instance, if you click on
an advertisement on a ZPRO site, this will take you away
from the ZPRO site and to an entirely different site.
This can include links from advertisers, content providers
and partners who may use ZPRO's logo and or style as a
result of a co-branding agreement. These sites may send
their own cookies to you, and may collect data and make
uses of it that ZPRO would not.

be completely secure. It may be possible for third parties
not under the control of ZPRO to intercept or access transmissions
or private communications unlawfully. While we strive
