PRIVACY POLICY - OUR COMMITMENT TO YOUR PRIVACY
Your privacy on the Internet is of the utmost importance to us. At Stop
Snoring Forever, we want to make your experience online satisfying and safe.
Because we gather certain types of information
about our users, we feel you should fully understand our policy and the terms and conditions surrounding the
capture and use of that information. This privacy statement discloses what information we gather and how we use
it.

information about users:
Information that users provide through optional,
voluntary submissions. These are voluntary submissions to receive our electronic newsletters, to participate in
our message boards or forums, to email a friend, and from participation in polls and surveys:
Information Stop Snoring
Forever gathers through aggregated tracking information derived mainly by tallying page views throughout
our sites. This information allows us to better tailor our content to readers' needs and to help our advertisers
and sponsors better understand the demographics of our audience. Because DRB PRODUCTS derives its revenue mainly
from sponsorships and advertising, providing such aggregated demographic data is essential to keeping our
service free to users. Under no circumstances does DRB PRODUCTS divulge any information about an individual user
to a third party.
Stop Snoring Forever Gathers User
Information In The Following Processes:
Optional Voluntary Information
We offer the following free services, which
require some type of voluntary submission of personal information by users:
The following is a list of different policies
which can be edited to remove the parts of the policy that are not needed. You should also add anything to this
policy template that you may have on your site.
1. Electronic newsletters policy
(Dispatches)
We will offer a free electronic newsletter to
users. Stop Snoring Forever gathers the email addresses of users who voluntarily subscribe. Users may
remove themselves from this mailing list by following the link provided in every newsletter that points users to
the subscription management page. Users can also subscribe to the newsletters at the time of
registration.
2. Message boards/forums policy
Users of the site's Message Boards and Forums
must register separately for these services (both are free of charge) in order to post messages, although they
needn't register to visit the site. During registration the user is required to supply a username, password, and
email address.
3. "E-mail this to a friend" policy
Our site users can choose to electronically
forward a link, page, or documents to someone else by clicking "e-mail this to a friend". The user must provide
their email address, as well as that of the recipient. This information is used only in the case of transmission
errors and, of course, to let the recipient know who sent the email. The information is not used for any other
purpose.
Children
Consistent with the Federal Children's Online
Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA), we will never knowingly request personally identifiable information from
anyone under the age of 13 without requesting parental consent.
Usage tracking
Stop Snoring Forever tracks user traffic
patterns throughout all of our sites. However, we do not correlate this information with data about individual
users. Stop Snoring Forever does break down overall usage statistics according to a user's domain
name, browser type, and MIME type by reading this information from the browser string (information contained in
every user's browser).
Stop Snoring Forever sometimes tracks and
catalogs the search terms that users enter in our Search function, but this tracking is never associated with
individual users. We use tracking information to determine which areas of our sites users like and don't like
based on traffic to those areas. We do not track what individual users read, but rather how well each page
performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better service for you.
Cookies
We may place a text file called a "cookie" in the
browser files of your computer. The cookie itself does not contain Personal Information although it will enable
us to relate your use of this site to information that you have specifically and knowingly provided. But the
only personal information a cookie can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie can't read data off
your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites. Stop Snoring Forever uses cookies to track
user traffic patterns (as described above). Our advertising system delivers a one-time cookie to better track ad
impressions and click rates.
You can refuse cookies by turning them off in
your browser. If you've set your browser to warn you before accepting cookies, you will receive the warning
message with each cookie. You do not need to have cookies turned on to use this site. However, you do need
cookies to participate actively in message boards, forums, polling and surveys.
Privacy Policy Use
How the information you gather is used if
relevent.
USE OF INFORMATION
Stop Snoring Forever uses any information
voluntarily given by our users to enhance their experience in our network of sites, whether to provide
interactive or personalized elements on the sites or to better prepare future content based on the interests of
our users.
As stated above, we use information that users
voluntarily provide in order to send out electronic newsletters and to enable users to participate in polls,
surveys, message boards, and forums. We send out newsletters to subscribers on a regular schedule (depending on
the newsletter), and occasionally send out special editions when we think subscribers might be particularly
interested in something we are doing. DRB PRODUCTS never shares newsletter mailing lists with any third parties,
including advertisers, sponsors or partners.
When we use tracking information to determine
which areas of our sites users like and don't like based on traffic to those areas. We do not track what
individual users read, but rather how well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build a better
service for you. We track search terms entered in Search function as one of many measures of what interests our
users. But we don't track which terms a particular user enters.
Stop Snoring Forever creates aggregate
reports on user demographics and traffic patterns for advertisers, sponsors and partners. This allows our
advertisers to advertise more effectively, and allows our users to receive advertisements that are pertinent to
their needs. Because we don't track the usage patterns of individual users, an advertiser or sponsor will never
know that a specific user clicked their ad. We will not disclose any information about any individual user
except to comply with applicable law or valid legal process or to protect the personal safety of our users or
the public.
SHARING OF THE INFORMATION
Stop Snoring Forever uses the
above-described information to tailor our content to suit your needs and help our advertisers better understand
our audience's demographics. This is essential to keeping our service free. We will not share information about
individual users with any third party, except to comply with applicable law or valid legal process or to protect
the personal safety of our users or the public.
SECURITY
Stop Snoring Forever operates secure data
networks protected by industry standard firewall and password protection systems. Our security and privacy
policies are periodically reviewed and enhanced as necessary and only authorized individuals have access to the
information provided by our customers.
OPT-OUT POLICY
We give users options wherever necessary and
practical. Such choices include:
Opting not to register to receive our electronic
newsletters.
Opting not to participate in certain interactive
areas, which completely alleviates the need to gather any personally identifiable information from our
users
YOUR CONSENT
By using this site, you consent to the collection
and use of this information by Stop Snoring Forever. If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will
post those changes on this page so that you are always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and
under what circumstances we disclose it.
