Privacy,
Security and Cookie Policy
Personally identifiable information
refers to information that specifically identifies who you are.
Our Websites do not collect personally identifiable information,
but using our websites implies that you consent to other parties
possibly tracking your shopping behaviour, on our behalf, in relation
to the Retail Merchants you may visit after clicking our banners
and links.
The Plus Size Websites Group is dedicated to
establishing trusting relationships with its users, based on respect
for personal information, by promoting the use of fair information
practices. This privacy policy covers all Web properties owned
and maintained by The Plus Size Websites Group, including this
one. This privacy policy (the "Policy") is designed
to inform you about the types of information that we might in
future gather about you, how we may use that information, whether
we disclose it to anyone, and the choices you have regarding our
use of that information. This Policy may change from time to time,
so please check back periodically.
Most of the banner ads, and some links, appearing on our Websites
are delivered to users through various third party Affiliate Networks,
acting on behalf of Retail Merchants, from whom we may then receive
commissions. These Affiliate Networks use 'Cookies' to track your
shopping behaviour after you leave our websites.
COOKIES
Under the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive)
Regulations 2003 (as amended) it is our duty to tell you how our
websites use Cookies.
We place 'Cookies' from Affiliate Networks on our websites. These
Cookies are little bits of information in the Banner and Link
codes which allows Affiliate Networks track your shopping behaviour
in relation to the Retail Merchant's website you visit, via the
Affiliate Network, after leaving our Websites. Although you may
not be aware of this visit to the Affiliate Network, because it
will be so quick, you will go to the Retail Merchant's website
via the Affiliate Network website after leaving ours.
By clicking on a Merchant Banner or Text Link, you will be directed
to the Merchant's website via the Affiliate Network that has given
us the Merchant's Banner. These Affiliate Networks use Cookies
to track information about users' visits to our Websites, such
as number of times you have viewed an ad, or the number of items
you bought and amount spent. Affiliate Network Cookies identify
and track your computer, but do not collect user names, addresses,
or other personal information, and are only used to track users
delivered to third party websites by our Websites to determine
commissions due to us, if any. Affiliate Network Cookies stop
tracking after a set time, usually determined by the Retail Merchant.
The Retail Merchant will often be given your tracking information
from the Affiliate Network, so that they don't pay 'double commission'
to us.
Affiliate Networks will never contact you, but if you choose to
give further information to the Retail Merchants you visit, you
may receive emails or offers if you choose to register with them.
Their privacy policies may differ from our Policy.
Our Websites may also contain non-advertising links to other sites.

for the privacy practices or cookie policy of such other sites.

is not our policy. This information might include your name, mailing
address, telephone number or e-mail address.
Third party advertising partners will not have access to any personally
identifiable information you might choose to give to us. If you
choose to give us personally identifiable information, we will
not share it with third parties. If you choose to give us personally
identifiable information, you may occasionally receive emails
containing information about us, or information about third party
services or affiliate programs that are likely to be of interest
to our users. You will be able to opt-out of receiving such emails
from us.

with law enforcement agencies in identifying those who use our
Websites' services for illegal activities.

business transition, such as a merger, being acquired by another
company, or selling a portion of its assets, any users' personally
identifiable information that we have will, in most instances,
be part of the assets transferred. Users may be notified prior
to a change of ownership or control of their personal information.
If as a result of the business transition, the users' personally
identifiable information will be used in a manner different from
that stated at the time of collection, users may object to such
use by contacting us at our given contact phone numbers.
