To improve the responsiveness of our site for users, we may use "cookies", or similar electronic tools to collect information. Here a unique, random number is assigned to each visitor (actually, to his computer) which serves as a User ID. This enables us to understand the user's individual interests. Unless you voluntarily identify yourself (through registration, for example), we will have no way of knowing who you are, even if we assign a cookie to your computer. The only personal information a cookie can gather is information that you supply (an example of this is when you provide information on some sites and ask for a personalised horoscope). A cookie cannot read data off your hard drive. Our advertisers may assign their own cookies to your browser (if you click on their ads), a process that we do not control.

Our web servers automatically collect limited information about your computer's connection to the Internet, including your IP address, when you visit our site. (Your IP address is a number that lets computers attached to the Internet know where to send you data -- such as the web pages you view.) Your IP address does not identify you personally. We use this information to deliver our web pages to users upon request, to tailor our site to our users' interests, to measure traffic at our site, and to let advertisers know the geographic locations from where our visitors come.

Citrus Interactive includes links to other websites. Such sites are governed by their own privacy policies, which are beyond our control. Once you leave our servers (you can tell where you are by checking the URL in the location bar on your browser), use of any information you provide is governed by the privacy policy of the operator of the site you are visiting. That policy may differ from ours. If you can't find the privacy policy of any of these sites via a link at the site's homepage, you should contact the site directly for more information.

When we present information to our advertisers -- to help them understand our audience and confirm the value of advertising on our website -- it is usually in the form of aggregated statistics on traffic to various pages within our site. When you register with Citrus Interactive, you will from time to time receive updates of content. We provide users those features that we believe will benefit them.

The internet is an ever evolving medium. We may change our privacy policy from time to time to incorporate necessary changes in future. Of course, our use of any information we gather will always be consistent with the policy under which the information was collected, regardless of what the new policy may be.

We may also at times share aggregate information with companies and websites belonging to the same group - Citrus Advisors.
