| MegaPrepaid.com ("MegaPrepaid.com" or the "Website") recognizes
that our users have legitimate concerns about privacy. The purpose of this
privacy policy is to inform you, as a Member of or visitor to MegaPrepaid.com,
what kinds of information we may gather from or about you when you visit
MegaPrepaid.com, how we may use that information, whether we disclose it
to anyone, and the choices you have regarding our use of, and your ability
to correct, the information. Please note that this policy applies only
to MegaPrepaid.com, and we are not responsible for the policies or content
of web sites accessible via links on our site. BY ACCESSING MegaPrepaid.com,
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS PRIVACY POLICY IS PART OF OUR TERMS OF USE AGREEMENT
AND YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ALL OF ITS TERMS AND CONDITIONS.
1.
How Information Is Gathered, Distributed and Used.
This privacy policy, which is part of our Terms of Use Agreement,
sets forth our practices regarding the collection and use of "personal
information" as well as the choices we offer you regarding the
use of this information. "Personal information" is information
that personally identifies you, including, for example, your
name, address, and email address. You provide certain personal
information to us when you:
a. Register for membership on MegaPrepaid.com b. sign up for
special offers from selected third parties. c. Enter sweepstakes
and contests sponsored by us or one of our partners. d. Send
email messages, post information in "public areas" of the Website,
submit forms (including survey responses), or send other information
to us. e. Purchase goods and services. We may collect personal
information from you at other points on our site that state that
personal information is being collected. We may also receive
certain personal information about our Members from third parties.
In general, our service gathers certain usage
information like the numbers and frequency of
visitors to MegaPrepaid.com and its various rooms
and areas. This data helps us determine how much
our customers use parts of the Website, so we
can improve our site. To enable certain features
available within our site, we will assign to
your Internet browser a unique identification
number stored in a file on your computer called
a "cookie." Cookies by themselves cannot be used
to find out the identity of any user. This identification
number automatically identifies your browser
- but not you - to our computers whenever you
interact with our site. Only when you agree to
provide information to us directly, such as through
membership registration, will we be able to know
anything about you other than the random number
that our computers assign to your browser. Your
web browser allows you to disable the use of
cookies; however, disabling the cookie may affect
your ability to use certain portions of our site.
MegaPrepaid.com also keeps log files of the IP
address and browser type of our members and users,
as well as any page that is requested by our
members or users. The log files do not include
any personal information.
In order to receive and utilize certain discounts
and services, visitors will need to register
with the MegaPrepaid.com as a Member. As a prerequisite
to becoming a Member, we will ask you to provide
us with information about yourself, such as your
name, gender, e-mail address, zip code, username
and a password. Also, sometimes we may specifically
ask for information about your interests if/when
you sign up to use special services, such as
chat room and bulletin boards. If you order a
product or wish us to store your billing and
credit card information or gift reminder information,
we will also need to gather such information
from you.
We may also use the information provided to
us to let you know of additional products and
services about which you might be interested.
We may ask you for information about your interests
so that you can take advantage of the interactivity
of the online medium, but you are not required
to provide this information. Additionally, we
may provide you with an opportunity to be listed
in a directory on one of our MegaPrepaid.com-branded
services. These listings are also optional and
you can make changes to this information when
you want to by changing your profile in your
member page. We will process your changes as
soon as practical.
Only if you indicate that you would like to
receive information about products and services
from third parties, will we disclose some of
your personal information (but not billing information
unless you place an order with them) to select
third parties. Otherwise, we provide only aggregated
statistical information, never personal information
about you, to our MegaPrepaid.com partners. We
do this so they can understand how much people
use portions of our site in order for them to
provide the best possible web experience. In
addition, in order to provide you with certain
features of services provided by certain third
party partners, such as email and sweepstakes,
if you choose such services, we will disclose
some of your personal information to these third
party partners. Lastly, we reserve the right
to use personal information for billing purposes,
to anticipate and resolve problems with your
service, or to investigate activity that may
violate our Terms of Use agreement with you.
Please be aware that personal information that
you voluntarily disclose in "public areas" of
the Website may be used by third parties. Additionally,
your email address and personal information about
you is automatically displayed in your user profile
and personal web page.
Although unlikely, at times we may be required
by law enforcement or judicial authorities to
provide personally identifiable information to
the appropriate governmental authorities. If
requested as part of a legal proceeding, we will
provide this information upon receipt of the
appropriate documentation.
2. Member Options and Opt-Out
Rights
We offer members choices regarding our use
of your personal information. You can change
or add certain personal information you supplied

email messages from us about products and services
that may be of interest to you at any time by

of the service (in which case you will not be
able to access or use these features). BE AWARE
THAT CHANGES OR ADDITIONS TO YOUR INFORMATION
MAY NOT BE PROCESSED IMMEDIATELY, BUT WILL BE
PROCESSED AS SOON AS REASONABLY PRACTICABLE.
In addition, you should understand that personal
information disclosed to third parties prior
to your opt-out election being processed will
be used according to such third parties' privacy
policies. Also, even if you change or add personal

effective upon posting unless otherwise specified.
4. Membership Information
Members can review their personal information
gathered by our site by accessing their personal
Member page
5. Security
We use industry standard security measures
to safeguard the confidentiality of your personal
information, including firewalls and, for certain
information, secure socket layers (SSL). Our
security and privacy policies are periodically
reviewed and enhanced as necessary and only authorized
individuals have access to the information provided
by our members.
6. Additional Privacy Protections
for Children
MegaPrepaid.com strongly believes in the potential
of the Internet for children's learning and the
value of participating in online communities.
We are also sensitive to families' concerns regarding
children's personal information and safety. Thus,
we require parental consent before allowing children
under the age of 18 to become members of the
web site and to post any data in "public area" of
the Website. However, there are some actions
that we cannot control and which require assistance
from the child's parent or guardian. For example,
we can't stop a minor from giving their age in
certain areas of our site - but you can and should
instruct them against making such disclosures.

Complaints
