This site is owned and operated by Survey Gigantic
("Survey Gigantic") an Avant Prime ("Avant Prime") company. Your privacy on the Internet is of the
utmost importance to us. At Survey Gigantic, we want to make your
experience online satisfying and safe.
Because we gather certain types of information
about our users, we feel you should fully understand the terms and
conditions surrounding the capture and use of that information.
This privacy statement discloses what information we gather and
how we use it.
INFORMATION SURVEY GIGANTIC GATHERS AND
TRACKS
Survey Gigantic gathers three types
of information about users:
- Information that users provide when registering to our service.
- Information that users provide through optional, voluntary
submissions. These are voluntary submissions to receive our
electronic newsletters or e-books, to email a friend, and from
participation in polls and surveys:
- Information Survey Gigantic gathers through aggregated tracking
information derived mainly by tallying page views throughout
our sites. This information allows us to better tailor our content
to readers' needs and to help our advertisers and sponsors better
understand the demographics of our audience.
Under no circumstances does Survey Gigantic divulge
any information about an individual user to a third party without
that user's explicit consent.
Survey Gigantic Gathers User Information
In The Following Processes:
Becoming a Survey Gigantic member
We will collect necessary details when users register
to our service, to contact our users, to allow them access our service
and to determine our users preferences to the receipt of Optional
Voluntary Information section 1, 2, 3 & 4, and also
whether information can be shared with Survey Gigantic partners.
Optional Voluntary Information
We offer the following free services, which require
some type of voluntary submission of personal information by users:
1. Electronic newsletters (Dispatches)
We will offer a free electronic newsletter to users.
Survey Gigantic gathers the email addresses of users who voluntarily
subscribe. Users may remove themselves from this mailing list by
following the link provided in every newsletter that points users
to the subscription management page. Users can also subscribe to
the newsletters, receipt of promotions from survey gigantic, and
allowing survey gigantic to share information about them with its
partners at the time of registration.
2. Electronic Books (e-books)
We offer free e-books to our visitors and members.
To receive these books it is necessary for visitors to provide an
email address. Visitors then can be contacted with promotional information
and may remove themselves from this mailing list by following the
link provided in every promotion that points users to the subscription
management page
3. "Refer a friend" Service
Our site users can choose to electronically forward
a link, page, or documents to someone else by clicking "refer
a friend". The user must provide their email address, as well
as that of the recipient. This information is used only in the case
of transmission errors and, of course, to let the recipient know
who sent the email. The information is not used for any other purpose.
4. Surveys
Survey Gigantic may occasionally conduct user surveys
to better target our content to our audience. We sometimes share
the aggregated demographic information in these surveys with our
sponsors, advertisers and partners. We never share any of this information
about specific individuals with any third party.
Children
We will never knowingly request personally identifiable
information from anyone under the age of 13 or the lowest age allowed
by law with regards to that individual country, without requesting
parental consent.
Usage tracking
Survey Gigantic tracks user traffic patterns throughout
all of our sites. However, we do not correlate this information
with data about individual users. Survey Gigantic does break down
overall usage statistics according to a user's domain name, browser
type, and MIME type by reading this information from the browser
string (information contained in every user's browser).
We use tracking information to determine which
areas of our sites users like and don't like based on traffic to
those areas. We do not track what individual users read, but rather
how well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build
a better service for you.
Cookies
We may place a text file called a "cookie"
in the browser files of your computer. The cookie itself does not
contain Personal Information although it will enable us to relate
your use of this site to information that you have specifically
and knowingly provided. But the only personal information a cookie
can contain is information you supply yourself. A cookie can't read
data off your hard disk or read cookie files created by other sites.
Survey Gigantic uses cookies to track user traffic patterns (as
described above). Our advertising system delivers a one-time cookie
to better track ad impressions and click rates.
You can refuse cookies by turning them off in your
browser. If you've set your browser to warn you before accepting
cookies, you will receive the warning message with each cookie.
You do not need to have cookies turned on to use this site.
USE OF INFORMATION
Survey Gigantic uses any information voluntarily
given by our users to enhance their experience in our network of
sites, whether to provide interactive or personalized elements on
the sites or to better prepare future content based on the interests
of our users.
As stated above, we use information that users
voluntarily provide in order to send out electronic updates, newsletters
or promotions. We send out newsletters to subscribers on a regular
schedule (depending on the newsletter), and occasionally send out
special editions when we think subscribers might be particularly
interested in something we are doing. Survey Gigantic never shares
newsletter mailing lists with any third parties, including advertisers,
sponsors or partners unless given explicit consent by the user.
When we use tracking information to determine which
areas of our sites users like and don't like based on traffic to
those areas. We do not track what individual users read, but rather
how well each page performs overall. This helps us continue to build
a better service for you.
Survey Gigantic creates aggregate reports on user
demographics and traffic patterns for advertisers, sponsors and
partners. This allows our advertisers to advertise more effectively,
and allows our users to receive advertisements that are pertinent
to their needs. Because we don't track the usage patterns of individual
users, an advertiser or sponsor will never know that a specific
user clicked their ad. We will not disclose any information about
any individual user except to comply with applicable law or valid
legal process or to protect the personal safety of our users or
the public.
SHARING OF THE INFORMATION
Survey Gigantic uses the above-described information
to tailor our content to suit your needs and help our advertisers
better understand our audience's demographics. We will not share
information about individual users with any third party, except
to comply with applicable law or valid legal process or to protect
the personal safety of our users or the public.
OPT-OUT POLICY
We give users options wherever necessary and practical.
Such choices include:
Opting not to register to receive our electronic
newsletters.
Opting not to participate in certain interactive
areas, which completely alleviates the need to gather any personally
identifiable information from our users.

and use of this information by Survey Gigantic. If we decide to
