Privacy Policy
LayZgreenPeople.com (LGP) considers it a priority to protect the information collected from you through our web site. We will not, to the best of our abilities, share your email address or any other personally identifiable information with any 3rd party.  Furthermore, we will be following the Privacy Policy described below. This policy may change, so you should check this area of the site from time to time to obtain the most current version of this policy.

Please note that by using this site, you consent to the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy.  Also be sure to read our Terms of Service.

COLLECTION OF INFORMATION
We collect the following types of information from visitors to our site:

"Personally Identifiable Information" such as your Name, Email, Photo, City, and State when you are “Registering” on our site or contacting us through the “Contact Us” page.  Similar information may be collected on other parts of the site as well.

"Non-Personally Identifiable Information" such as:
* Demographic information, including your Age, Gender, Profession, or Interests.  This information may be supplied to a 3rd party for market research or other purposes, but will not enable them to personally identify who you are.

* IP Address (Internet Protocol) -- Your IP address is a number that lets computers attached to the Internet know where to send you information and what kind of information to send.  For example, the web pages you view may be tailored to your geographic area.  In addition, we may use your IP information to evaluate our traffic.

*  Cookie -- A "cookie" is a small text file that is placed on your computer (if your computer accepts cookies) and is useful in several ways.  It may save you time when logging in to our site, because it will fill in your Login ID and Password automatically.  And it may be used by us to collect information about your activity on our Site. Note that you may set most browsers to notify you if you receive a cookie, or you may choose to block cookies with your browser.

* Web Beacons (also known as "clear gifs," "web bugs" or "pixel tags") -- "Web Beacons" are tiny, transparent graphic images, usually just 1 pixel, with a unique identifier.  They are similar in function to cookies, and are used to allow us to count users who have visited certain pages of our Site and to track the response rate to any promotional emails we may have sent out.  When used in HTML-formatted email messages, web beacons can tell us whether and when the email has been opened. Unlike cookies, which are stored on a user's computer hard drive, web beacons are embedded invisibly on web pages.

We use the information that is collected on LGP primarily for the following purposes:
 
* To ensure that the LGP site is relevant to your needs
* To alert you to special offers, updated information and other new services from us

* To fulfill the terms of a promotion
* To allow you access to restricted areas of the site
* To respond to messages you send us through the “Contact Us” page
* To comply with the law in good faith or through legal process served on us;  to protect and defend our rights or property; to protect the personal safety of our end users
* To third parties as part of any corporate reorganization process including, but not limited to, mergers, acquisitions, and sales of all or substantially all of our assets.
* To track and analyze non-identifying and aggregate usage and volume statistical information from our visitors and provide such information to third parties

INTERNATIONAL VISITORS
If you choose to provide us with any information from a country outside of the United States, please note that you are transferring that information to the United States, which does not have the same data protection laws as other countries.  All stated policies apply in the same manner to visitors outside of the United States as well as those within.

Please note that any information you post to any of LGP’s community areas, including User-Generated Videos, Articles, Photos, and postings on the forums for EcoTalk, EcoPeeve, Pledge Photo Proof, EcoThought, or EcoScare, or other public posting areas, is available to anyone with Internet access. Do not include any information, such as Email, Name, or other sensitive information that you do not want to share publicly.  Please understand that we are not responsible for any information that you receive or share in any public posting areas of our Site.

If a security breach occurs, we may post a notice on the website or send you an email at the email address you have provided.

AGE SCREENING
