We respect and are committed to protecting your privacy. That is why we have adopted this
Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy lets you know how your personal information
is processed and explains data collection and use practices for the ByTonight
network. The "ByTonight network" includes all Web pages, newsletters, discussion
forums and lists and opt-in announcement lists owned or operated by the ByTonight.com (Impressa Shine)
Corporation. By accessing the ByTonight network, you are consenting to the information collection and
use practices described in this Privacy Policy.
Every computer connected to the Internet is given a domain name and a set of numbers that serve as that computer's "Internet Protocol" IP address. When a visitor requests a page from any website within the ByTonight network, our Web servers automatically recognize that visitor's domain name and IP address. The domain name and IP address reveal nothing personal about you other than the IP address from which you have accessed our site. We use this information to examine our traffic in aggregate, and to investigate misuse of the ByTonight network, its users, or to cooperate with law enforcement. We do not collect and evaluate this information for specific individuals. Our Web servers do not automatically record e-mail addresses of the visitors.
From time to time, ByTonight or its advertisers may send a "cookie" to your computer. A cookie is a small piece of data that is sent to your Internet browser from a Web server and stored on your computer's hard drive. A cookie can't read data off of your computer hard disk or read cookie files created by other websites. Cookies do not damage your system. We use cookies to identify which areas of ByTonight's network you have visited or customized, so the next time you visit, those pages may be readily accessible. Our advertisers may also use cookies to ascertain how many times you've seen an advertisement. Our advertisers and we may use this information to better personalize the content, banners, and promotions that you see on our Site. You can choose whether to accept cookies by changing the settings of your Internet browser. You can reset your browser to refuse all cookies, or allow your browser to show you when a cookie is being sent. If you choose not to accept these cookies, your experience at our Site and other websites may be diminished and some features may not work as intended.
Wherever ByTonight collects personal information we make an effort to include a link to this Privacy Policy.
We will ask you when we need information that personally identifies you
(personal information) or allows us to contact you. The personal information we
collect may include your name, title, company or organization name, e-mail
address, phone number, work or home address, information about your job
function, information about your company, and credit card information.
We may request your e-mail address or mailing address for the purposes of
conducting a contest or to provide additional services (for example,
subscriptions to announcement lists or information about conferences and trade
shows). Participation in contests or other promotions on the ByTonight network is
completely voluntary and you have a choice whether or not to disclose personal
information. Information requested may include contact information (such as name
and shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code). Contact
information will be used to notify the winners and award prizes.
If you are purchasing a subscription on the ByTonight network, we, and any third party
provider, need to know your name, e-mail address, mailing address, credit card
number and expiration date. This allows us, or third party providers, to process
and fulfill your order and to notify you of your order status. Credit card and
e-mail information will not be shared or sold to third parties for any purpose
except as provided in this Privacy Policy without your express permission.
ByTonight also offers access to some services that require registration. We may
use your registration contact information to send notification to you of
products and services by e-mail and/or USPS mail. We may share that
information with our clients and they may also send you promotional materials that relate to your needs.
When you sign up for the ByTonight e-mail newsletter, you are given the opportunity
to sign up for targeted third-party mailings. Whether or not you want to receive
these announcements is your choice. If you choose to receive an announcement
from a specific distribution list, you will receive commercial messages that only relate to your needs.
You may stop the arrival of these announcements at any time by
removing your e-mail address from the forwarding the announcement, or sending us an email request at shine@ByTonight.com or by following the instructions on the e-mails you receive.
When you sign up for the ByTonight training webinars, your name or alias is recorded
solely for purposes of maintaining your account for the class forums. This
information is not used to monitor your activity, nor is it used
to identify you outside the ByTonight network.
When you use co-branded services, or those provided by a third party, within
the ByTonight network, your information may be passed to the co-brand or third party
provider and their use of your information is subject to their applicable
privacy policies.
We may from time to time send e-mail announcing new products and services. If you choose to supply your mailing address, you may receive mail from ByTonight or third party companies that relate to your needs.
ByTonight will disclose personal information when the following is true:
1) To contact you regarding other products and services which may be of
interest to you (including those we may offer jointly with other companies).
At any time, however, you may opt out of such contact;
2) When required by law or in the good-faith belief that such action is necessary to:
• Cooperate with the investigations of purported unlawful activities.
• Protect and defend the rights or property of the ByTonight network, or visitors to the our network and product properties.
• Identify persons who may be violating the law.
• Fulfill a user's order or request.
3) To process and fulfill your order or notify you of order status.
4) When we have your consent to share the information.
5) When you use co-branded services within our network of sites, you grant us permission to pass your registration information back to that service partner. Their use of your information is subject to their privacy policies.
That means, we do not sell, rent, or give your information to third parties without your consent.
ByTonight may use third-party advertising companies and advertising networks to serve ads to you
based on information (not including your name, address, email address or
telephone number) about your visits to our websites in order to provide
targeted advertisements about goods and services that may be of interest to you
while visiting other websites.
The ByTonight network contains many hyperlinks to third party websites. The ByTonight
network also contains advertisements of third parties. ByTonight is not responsible
for the privacy practices or the content of such third party websites or
advertisers. ByTonight does not share any of the individual personal information you
provide ByTonight with the third parties to which ByTonight links, except as stated
elsewhere within this Privacy Policy, although ByTonight may share general, aggregate
data with such third parties (such as how many people use our Site). Please
check with those websites to determine their privacy policy.
If you use ByTonight's community discussion threads, you should be aware that any personally
identifiable information you submit there can be read, collected, or used by
other users of these forums, and could be used to send you unsolicited messages.
We are not responsible for the personally identifiable information you choose to
submit in these discussions. In order to avoid your e-mail address or
other personal information from being gathered and used by others for
inappropriate or harmful purposes, ByTonight advises that you should be cautious
about posting a real e-mail address or other personal information to newsgroups,
chats, or other public forums.
Please keep in mind that whenever you voluntarily disclose personal
information online - for example through e-mail, discussion lists, or elsewhere
- that information can be collected and used by others. In short, if you post
personal information online that is accessible to the public, you may receive
unsolicited messages from other parties in return.
Certain ByTonight media properties use an ecommerce feature that safeguards
this information by using industry standard SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encrypted
servers. SSL codes the information transferred between you and the server,
rendering it unreadable to anyone trying to intercept the information. Other
ByTonight media properties do not use SSL and thereby do not offer a secure coded way
to transfer information.
Ultimately, you are solely responsible for maintaining the secrecy of your
personal information. Please be careful and responsible whenever you're online.
We are always seeking to improve our network of websites and our business. In accomplishing these objectives, we may sell a company, assets or websites or one or more of the companies in our corporate family may merge with, or be acquired by, another company. In connection with the foregoing, we may transfer some or all of your information in order that the service being provided to you may continue or for other business purposes.
By using the ByTonight network, you consent to the collection and use of information by ByTonight as specified above. We
reserve the right to modify this Policy. If we decide to change our Privacy
Policy, we will post those changes on this page so that you are always aware of
what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances we
disclose it.

Please note that your use of the ByTonight network of websites is governed by our
License. Thank you.
