Cool Walking Privacy Policy & Disclaimer

At Cool Walking we respect your privacy. The following document explains how we do that.

Visitor Tracking
As a site visitor, your visits to the website are logged with a third party tracking tool. This tool provides us with pertinent information - not about you, but about the numbers you represent - it counts the pages you visit, it counts the times someone from your IP (it could be you, it could be someone else on your ISP) visit the site, it counts the amount of kilobytes you're responsible for downloading from the site. It also looks to see what link you clicked to arrive at this site. (known as 'referrer'). One thing it doesn't do is personally identify you for our records - you are more or less "anonymous".

Forums
If you have signed up as a member of our forums, we store some information about you on our site. This information includes your email address, your username, and password. This information is never given or sold to any third party and is only used for the purpose of running the forums.

Advertisiing
You will find advertising on the Cool Walking site. This advertising is there for the purpose of defraying the costs associated with running the site. These costs include hosting fees, bandwidth fees, site maintenance, and other related costs. To a certain extent, we do not control the content of the ads you see and are not responsible if you are offended or injured in any way. Please contact the advertiser in question to sort out the problem..

Disclosure of Information
In some cases, the governments and legal entities (court of law, police subpoena, etc) can compel the disclosure of information about you, and of course Cool Walking will need to comply. However, irrespective of those situations, Cool Walking can unilaterally turn over information about you to the government if it believes such disclosure to be appropriate, in which case you authorize it to do so. You also consent to Cool Walking disclosing information about you to actual or potential parties to a lawsuit that Cool Walking is or may become involved in (a) if it is required to do so, (b) if it reasonably believes that such disclosures will potentially mitigate its liability, or (c) to enforce its rights.

DISCLAIMER
Cool Walking is not perfect and thus may inadvertently make uses or disclosures of your information in ways not contemplated by, or in direct contravention of, this Statement. For example, if the forum software has a temporary problem, or is infected by an as of yet unknown virus or trojan, your personal information could be displayed on the site even though you've configured your preferences otherwise. No software is hackproof. In addition, although highly unlikely, it is possible for Internet transmissions containing your personal information to be intercepted by others. It is impossible for Cool Walking to ensure the privacy and security of all transmissions made to and from the site while in transit.

This website is for entertainment purposes only. All information is provided without any warranties or guarantees. Cool Walking is not responsible for how you make use of this information or for any injuries or difficulties you may encounter as a result of using this information. ALWAYS CONSULT A PHYSICIAN BEFORE STARTING ANY NEW EXERCISE PROGRAM.
