This privacy policy will advise you about how we protect your personal information, and about what choices you have concerning our use of such information. Please read this policy carefully. We may need to change this policy from time to time in order to address new issues and reflect changes on our site. We will post those changes here so that you will always know what information we gather, how we might use that information, and whether we will disclose that information to anyone. Please refer back to this policy regularly. Scope Of Privacy Policy This policy applies to your use of all of the site and services owned or operated by Paper Carnival, and affiliated companies (collectively "Paper Carnival" or "we," "us," or "our"), including OpticalCablingSys.com, and any other site that we may own or operate currently or in the future (collectively, the "Paper Carnival Site"). Unless we say otherwise, all references to the Paper Carnival Site in this policy include all such sites. This policy does not apply to your use of unaffiliated sites to which any of the Paper Carnival Site only link. Personal Identification Information We may request personal identification information from you in connection with your use of, or mailing list registration for PaperCarnival.com in connection with any of the activities, services or resources we make available on our site. In all of these cases, we will collect personal identification information from you only if you voluntarily submit such information to us. We will never intentionally disclose any personal identification information about you as an individual user (such as, for example, your full name, street address, telephone number, credit card number or e-mail address) to any third party without having received your permission. If you do provide us with personal information, we may use it to conduct the activities described above. If you identify yourself to us by sending us an e-mail with questions or comments, we may use your personal information to respond to your questions or comments. We may file your comments for future reference, or we may discard the information after we have reviewed it. We may also contact you to confirm your registration or purchase order and about your account status (for example, when a child enters a new age group to which different policies apply), and regarding changes to the Paper Carnival Site's Terms and Conditions and this Privacy Policy. If you give us your permission, we may also use personal identification information for internal marketing and promotional purposes. On occasion, for example, we may send you e-mails to introduce a new product or service that we are offering and that we think might be of interest to the users of our site. For us to obtain your permission to send you this information, we will give you an opportunity to "opt-in" at the time our request for your personal information is made. If you do "opt-in," you may choose to "opt-out" at any time, even after you have provided personal information, by following the procedures set forth below at the end of this Privacy Policy. Please note, however, that under certain circumstances, if you initially do not choose to "opt-in," or if you later "opt-out," you may not be eligible for certain benefits for which a name, e-mail address, telephone number or other personal identification information is needed. We have the following exceptions to these policies: We will release specific information about you or your account to comply with any valid legal process such as a search warrant, subpoena, statute or court order. We will also release specific information in special cases, such as if there is an attempted breach of the security of the Paper Carnival site, or a physical or property threat to you or others.

Non-personal identification information might include the browser you use, the type of computer, technical information about your means of connection to our site-such as the operating systems and the Internet service providers utilized, and other similar information. Our system also automatically gathers information about the areas you visit and search terms you utilize on our site and about the links you may select from within our site to other areas of the World Wide Web or elsewhere online. We use such information to administer the site and, in the aggregate, to understand how our users as a group use the services and resources provided on our site. This way we know which areas of our site is favorites of our users, which areas need improvement, and what technologies are being used so that we may continually improve our site. We may share this aggregate statistical information with our partners, suppliers and other third parties, but we will not share any individual names, personal navigational or other personal information. Some of our advertisers may display ads on our site which solicit or contain technology to collect information about our users for the advertisers, but we will not permit such advertisers to collect any personal information from our users within our site.

If you do so, please note that some parts of the Paper Carnival Site, such as shopping may not function properly.

Our site makes use of cookies to permit the completion of the user's current activity on the site and for aggregate, non-personally identifiable analysis (for example we may track the number of times users visit a portion of our site, but we do not track or know who those users are). We only use cookies to collect personally identifiable information with your consent, as described above under Personal Identification Information. Privacy of Children Paper Carnival understands that young people need special safeguards and privacy protection. We realize that they may not understand all the provisions of our policy or be able to make thoughtful decisions about the choices that are made available to our adult users. We strongly urge all parents to participate in their children's exploration of the Internet and any online services, and to teach their children about protecting their personal information while online.
