discounted rates. The protection of your privacy is of great importance
to us. Our Privacy Statement describes our commitment to protecting

Section 1. Collecting Personal Information.
We gather information from members and visitors primarily
through the following ways: Member profiles, surveys, and e-mail
list questionnaires Contact, Booking, Reservation Request, and Feedback
Forms Cookie technology IP addresses Member Profiles, Surveys, and
Other Online Forms When you create your online profile as a member,
we collect your basic demographic information, your benefit interests
and your savings preferences. From this information we create a
profile that helps us identify the type of benefits that are most
relevant to you. With this information, we can customize our services
and your savings to suit your needs and preferences. At the initial
member profile screen we ask for a member ID, password, and e-mail
address. Occasionally, we may also collect additional personal information
if you choose to enter a contest or complete another type of online
form. Once you are a member, we will use the information we receive
from you to determine what benefit information is most appropriate
for you and what information you may find most relevant. Some personal
information like member name, hometown, country and other information
you choose to submit will be shared with those parties, such as
benefit suppliers, to ensure proper fulfillment when you disclose
it to us on the Web-site. This may include, but is not limited to:
When you submit your requests online When you tell us how often
you would like to receive e-mails from us and third party suppliers
When you participate in contests and member surveys When you contact
us or inquire about becoming a member Cookie Technology We use

to you, and to help finance the cost of making our Web site available
to you, we place Advertisements on our Web site. Gathering information
from members and other
users allows us to target advertisements and sponsorships. We believe
this makes information on our Web site more relevant to you and
is more productive for our advertisers. For example, if you have
indicated that you enjoy fine dining, we can target an advertisement
to you about a special deal at a fine dining establishment near
you. Optional E-mail Messages When you register with our site and
indicate you would like to receive e-mails relating to special benefit
and travel offers and content, occasionally we may send you e-mail

time thereafter. You can unsubscribe by clicking on the unsubscribe
links in your e-mails.

provide you with a requested service, provide better services, or
under circumstances required by law. We will disclose your personal
information when we believe in good faith that any applicable law,
regulation, or legal process requires it, or when we believe disclosure
is necessary to protect or enforce our rights or the rights of another

(independent of any personal identifiers) for research and commercial
purposes, such as describing our services, members and users to
prospective partners, advertisers and other third parties. Specific
