Protecting

Left Field Ink is
committed to protecting your privacy and providing services
that give you the most powerful and safe online experience
possible. User personal information is contained behind our
secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number
of staff members who have special access rights to such systems.
We employ SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption to secure all
personal identification obtained from the use of our services.
In addition, all personnel who have access to our database
are trained to maintain and secure all forms of information
gathered. The following policy describes how we handle that
information after it is received from our visitors.

make a post, your IP address is stored on our server. This
protects you as a member and us as a company when identifying
that the user who posted is indeed authentic. This information
will only be used if you misuse any features on the board
or in any dispute. The board administrator is able to ban
posters by IP address if they fail to comply with the message
forum rules.
Registration

can keep a unique identity. The only required parts to the
registration process is the 'Membername' and 'Email address'.

wish. The bulletin board administrator will take all reasonable
measures to ensure that any information you provide confidentially
is kept confidential. You may change this information at any
time by editing your profile.
Postings:
The board administrator(s) cannot be held responsible for
the content of posted messages on the forums. However, any
and all material of an offensive nature will be prompty removed.
Board Security:
XXXXXXX being the authors of our Chat room and Bulletin Board
software, have taken all reasonable steps to ensure that there
is sufficient security in place to stop external misuse of
any and all information that you provide.

Note to parents
and legal guardians
Pursuant to the provisions
of the Federal Children`s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA),
we do not collect information from children under thirteen
years of age without the consent of a parent legal guardian.
Parents or legal guardians may provide us with consent to
collect such information by e-mail, by facsimile or by posted
mail. Parents may request to review information collected
from their child, may ask to have that information delted,
and may refuse to allow further collection or use of the child`s
information. To request such review or to give instructions
regarding the information we have collected about a child,
parents or legal guardians should contact us as specified
below under "Contact Us".
We encourage parents
and guardians to spend time online with their children, to
participate in the interactive activities offered online,
and for children to consult with their parents before submitting
any information to this or any other web site. Although guest
under eighteen years of age may be allowed, with their parent`s
permission and supervision, to participate in noted contests,
if such a guest wins, notification and prizes will be sent
to such guest`s parents or guardian. Parents should consider
using parental control tools available from online services
and software manufacturers to help supervise their children`s
online activities. These tools can also prevent children from
disclosing their name, address, and other personal information
online without parental permission. For additional information
about parental control tools, please consult the "Consumer
Assistance" page of the Direct Marketing Association
home page.
