Privacy Policy

Effective as of March 1, 2011

Read very carefully:

TheManWhore.com, is committed to protecting the privacy and security of the personally identifiable information and personal health information you provide to us and any reports based on such information that is personally identifiable (collectively, "Personal Information"). We want to share with you how we treat Personal Information about you that we receive in connection with this Website.

Changes to Privacy Policy

By using the website, you signify your agreement to the terms of our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with these terms, you should not use the site. TheManWhore.com, may modify this Privacy Policy at any time. If a material change is made to this Privacy Policy and/or the way we use our users’ personally identifiable information or personal health information, then we will post a prominent notice of the nature of such change on the first page of this Privacy Policy. You are responsible for reviewing this Privacy Policy periodically to ensure that you are aware of any changes to it. Your continued use of the Website indicates your assent to any changes to this Privacy Policy.

TheManWhore.com, Collects

Sections of this Website (including restricted portions of this Website) that allow for the submission of Personal Information (referred to for convenience as "Profile Pages") contain a function for collecting various pieces of your Personal Information including, but not limited to, your name, address, email address, credit card or debit account information, and your zip code. We only collect Personal Information if you voluntarily submit the information to us for such purposes as purchasing our products, registering for use of restricted portions of this Website, completing surveys conducted by TheManWhore.com, or a contractor acting on our behalf, or requesting information or services. For your information, through certain technologies employed by this Website we also collect non-personally identifiable information about you. For more details about this type of data collection please refer to the section below on cookies. In the event of a complaint, we may also receive personally identifiable information about you from other Website subscribers or from other users or third parties who may communicate information to us about you in relation to that complaint.

TheManWhore.com collects information in two categories:

1. Personally Identifiable Information (PII)

name and e-mail address - provided by you for registration to receive our free newsletters.
name, postal address, phone and credit card information - provided by you when purchasing our products.
All such information is strictly protected and used only for delivering the content and products the user has signed up for or purchased. This information is NEVER used for other purposes and is NEVER shared with 3rd parties.

There is a single exception to this. Say you were subscribed to some newsletter such as "modern world fashion" and the editors ran a promotion of our site within it, and you followed over to our site, then subscribed to our newsletter, then at a later date you unsubscribed.

In that case, we have to provide back to "modern world fashion" your email address, so they can exclude you from our future mailings. No other information other than email address is provided and that email address is used ONLY to suppress our future emails to you. This scenario accounts for less than 1% of our newsletter subscribers.

2. Anonymous Usage History (non PII)

This information is strictly limited to the history of activities that the user engaged in while on our site. it does NOT include any personally identifiable information (PII).

For example, the string "sub+customer" in a cookie (see below for what cookies are) might indicate that you are both a subscriber AND a customer.

The purpose of this information is to improve your experience.

For example, by storing the fact that you are already a subscriber, we do not need to bother you with an irrelevant subscriber box.

Similarly, by noting that you are a customer, we can "bookmark" the last video frames you watched in our member area and remind you of this the next time you visit.

There is a small subset of this history that we use with 3rd parties, such as Google, for the purpose of measuring and improving the efficacy of advertising campaigns.

Some of these third parties, aggregate such information across many websites. This allows them to identify users who are more likely to be interested in specific offerings like fashion, sports, education and so on.

As an Internet user, you may experience the results of such aggregation by noticing how the ads displayed on Yahoo, for example, better match your interests (the optimistic scenario), or at least more closely match a website that you recently visited.

Whether you find this annoying and spooky or helpful and relevant, or perhaps both, you are in good company. This area of Internet advertising is new and controversial. The tradeoff between privacy vs. commercial efficiency has a long history, for example the "Do not call" list.

In any event, it is likely that either the government or the industry will adopt some form of "opt out" capability in the future to address these concerns.

Third Party Financial Institutions and Affiliates

TheManWhore.com, submits payment information directly to FastSpring when you purchase purchase on the website. This information includes your credit card or debit card number and your zip code. FastSpring's merchant account provider may use this information to process your order and record and file the information. If you return purchased products or request a refund or exchange, you may be asked to give your name, address and any other identifiable information that is deemed necessary to verify your identity. This information may be collected by FastSpring to prevent fraud and identify theft

Use of Cookies/Clear GIFs

Like most websites, TheManWhore.com, requires cookies/clear GIFs to function properly. We use cookies to refine our site and simplify the user experience. This cookie technology allows users to move more quickly through our Website. For example, the use of cookies allows registered users to enter our site without explicitly typing in their email address and password every time they access this Website. TheManWhore.com, uses session ID cookies for increased security reasons. The user's session ID cookie stores only an identification ID that TheManWhore.com, uses to identify a user as the user moves throughout the Website. The session ID cookie does not contain any personally identifying information. When a user closes the browser, logs out, or goes for extended periods of time without activity, the cookie terminates.

If you do not want information collected through the use of cookies, there is a simple procedure in most browsers that allows you to deny or accept the cookie feature; however, you should note that cookies may be necessary to provide you certain features available on the TheManWhore.com, Website.

What are cookies/clear GIFs and how do we use them?

Cookies: Like many other commercial sites, our site utilizes standard technologies called "cookies" and clear GIFs to collect information about how our Site is used. A cookie is a small data text file, which a website stores on your computer's hard drive (if your web browser permits) that can later be retrieved to identify you to us. Cookies were designed to help a website recognize a user's browser as a previous visitor and thus save and remember any preferences that may have been set while the user was browsing the site. A cookie cannot be read by a website other than the one that set the cookie. A cookie cannot pass on a computer virus or capture any of the Personally Identifiable information.

Clear GIFs: At times, we work with third-party service partners that employ clear GIFs (also known as pixel tags, single pixel GIFs, web beacons or action tags) for our benefit to help us measure advertising effectiveness. Clear GIFs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of our users. The main difference between the two is that clear GIFs are invisible on the page and are much smaller, about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. Clear GIFs are not tied to your Personally Identifiable Information and only track the visitor traffic and behavior to and on our Site.

Clear GIFs can "work with" existing cookies on a computer if they are both from the same website or advertising company. That means, for example, that if a person visited "www.companyX.com", which uses an advertising company's clear GIF, the website would match the clear GIFs identifier and the advertising company's cookie ID number, to show the past online behavior for that computer. This collected information can be shared with the advertising company. We do, at times, provide such information to our third-party advertising service partners, but that information never includes personally identifiable information

Information Collected by Third Parties Not Acting on Behalf of TheManWhore.com,

Sponsors or advertisers on this Website may use their own Cookies or other online tracking technologies in the advertisements served on the Website and in emails, special promotions or newsletters you agree to have sent to you as a result of being on our site. Some advertisers use companies other than TheManWhore.com, to serve their ads and to monitor users' responses to ads, and these companies ("Ad Servers") may also collect Non-Personal Information through the use of Cookies or Web Beacons on our Website. In certain situations, information collection may be facilitated by momentarily directing your browser to the website of an Ad Server or other third party acting on behalf of the sponsor, partner, or advertiser before re-directing your browser to its selected area. You should be aware that TheManWhore.com, cannot control the use of cookies by advertisers or any information advertisers may gather from their use of cookies.
