www.argons.in henceforth referred to as Argons offers this Privacy
Policy. Use of the Argons web site, and disclosure to us of your
personal information, is optional and voluntary. By visiting Argons,
you are accepting and agreeing to the practices described in this
Policy. The following paragraphs describe the type of information
Argons collects, the reasons why such information is collected, how
such information is used and who has access to it.
GENERAL PRINCIPLES
Argons Privacy Policy may change from time to time without notice to
you. You should read this Privacy Policy each time you plan to submit
personally identifiable information so that you understand how the
information you are submitting will be used.
Any changes made to the Privacy Policy will be prospective, not
retroactive.
Argons is not responsible for the information practices of third
parties, although we take care to engage third party fulfilment
processors, ad servers, survey companies and other support services
that respect your privacy, preferences and data security needs.
COLLECTION OF INFORMATION
Argons collects information that is provided voluntarily by visitors
to our site. Certain identifying information, such as name, street
address, city, state, zip code and email address, is gathered at
certain interactive areas on the site, such as when you subscribe,
Register using our print or digital publication while online.
COOKIES AND IP ADDRESSES
As
with most other websites, we collect and use the data contained in log
files. The information in the log files include your IP (internet
protocol) address, your ISP (internet service provider), the browser
you used to visit our site (such as Internet Explorer or Firefox), the
time you visited our site and which pages you visited throughout our
site. Argons may use data contained in log files to analyse trends,
administer the site, track users' movement and gather broad
demographic information for aggregate use.
USE OF THE INFORMATION COLLECTED
Argons create aggregate reports on user demographics and traffic
patterns for advertisers. This allows our advertisers to advertise
more effectively, and allows our users to receive advertisements that
are pertinent to their interests. Because Argons does not track the
usage patterns of individual users, an advertiser will never know that
a specific user clicked on a particular advertisement. We also use
tracking information to determine which areas of our site users like
and do not like based on traffic to those areas.

yourself, unless specifically stated otherwise in this Privacy Policy,
you are sharing that information only with Argons. Argons will not
disclose the information you submit, except with our third party
fulfillment vendors and except as otherwise described here, or when we
believe in good faith that the law requires disclosure to protect the
rights or property of Argons, or for administrative or other purposes
we deem necessary to maintain or service our products and services.
For example, we may allow access to our database by third parties that
provide us with services, such as technical maintenance, but only for
the purpose of and to the extent necessary to provide you with our
services. If you do not want your data to be shared, you may choose
not to permit the data to be collected or transferred by not
submitting personally identifiable information on our site, or by not
using a particular service.

place, including firewalls, to protect the information under our
