2Advanced.net and 2Advanced Studios,
LLC (“2Advanced”) are committed
to protecting your privacy. That is why we have adopted this
Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy is intended to describe
how your personal information is processed and used, and we
will make every effort to ensure that our activities keep within
the spirit of this Privacy Policy. Please note that
by visiting and using 2advanced.net or 2advancedstudios.net,
or any derivative thereof, you are accepting the practices described
in this Privacy Policy. |

What information
is 2Advanced gathering about its visitors and how is it being
used? |
|
| |
Every computer connected to the
Internet is provided with a domain name (e.g. myhostingprovider.com)
and an IP Address (e.g. 192.164.13.145). When a visitor requests
a page from within the 2Advanced.net, our Web Servers automatically
identify and log the HTTP request that is made to our Web Server.
This information reveals nothing personal about you.
In fact, the only information that we automatically gather and
log is as follows: |
|
| |
| (a). |
The IP Address of the Site that may have Referred you. |
|
| (b). |
Your IP Address. |
|
| (c). |
The Web Page that you may have linked to us from, if
any. |
|
| (d). |
The Product Identifier for Version and Make of Browser
(e.g. Internet Explorer 6.0) |
|
| (e). |
The Operating System platform that you may be running
(e.g. Macintosh or Windows) |
|
| (f). |
Search Words or Terms that are passed from a Search
Engine (e.g. Google, Yahoo, or Lycos) |
|
|
| |
There is absolutely nothing special
about the information just described, and the practice of collecting
this data has been generally standardized by virtually every
Web Server on the Internet today.
The purpose for this information is actually two-fold. One,
2Advanced.net has found it advantageous to examine visitor traffic
in its aggregate, so that we can ensure maximum compatibility
for the various Browsers and Operating Systems that visit our
site. Additionally, as any business should attest, it is our
desire to generate greater amounts of visitor traffic. By analyzing
visitation patterns, referring URLs and Search Engine terms,
we can strategically enhance our exposure on the Internet. |

What about
Cookies? |
|
| |
Cookies are small pieces of data
that are transferred to your computer’s hard drive through
your Web browser from our Web Server. A cookie cannot read data
from your hard disk or read cookie files that may have been
created from other sites. The 2Advanced.net website utilizes
cookies as a means of providing personalization features to
our visitors. For example, we utilize cookies to remember settings
(background music selections, wallpapers preferences, etc.)
that you may have made at our website.
You can choose whether to accept cookies by changing the settings
of your browser. Typically, by accessing the browser’s
help feature you can obtain information on how to prevent your
browser from accepting all cookies or to notify you when a cookie
is being sent. If you choose not to accept these cookies, your
experience at our website and other websites may be diminished
and some features may not work as intended. |

What other
information does 2Advanced request? |
|
| |
We may also request your e-mail
address or mailing address for the purposes of conducting a
survey, adding you to our mailing list, or by your request to
have someone contact you for additional information. Whenever
we request the identity of a visitor, we will clearly indicate
the purpose of the inquiry before the information is requested.
We maintain a strict “No Spam” policy that means
we do not intend to sell, rent, or otherwise give your e-mail
address to a third-party, without your consent.
In addition, 2Advanced.net will not send you e-mail that you
have not agreed to receive. If you are a member of our Mailing
List, you will be contacted with announcements, news, portfolio
additions, and new products or services. You have the option
of “Unsubscribing” from out Mailing List at any
time, thereby disabling any further such e-mail communication
from being sent to you. If you wish to have specific communications
with a member of the 2Advanced.net staff, you will be required
to provide specific information that will be routed to the appropriate
contact within 2Advanced. |

as hosting plan service or a physical product such as a T-Shirt,

transferred between you and the server, rendering it unreadable

to keep the information disclosed to us secure. 2Advanced reserves
the right to transfer information in connection with the sale
of all or part of 2Advanced capital stock or assets to any third
party. Furthermore, we are not responsible for any breach of
security or for any actions of any third parties that receive

policy.
