1. Types of Information Collected:

This Site collects Personal Data when you interact with the Site. For example when you register for membership services such as trade mediator, team evaluator, tip of the week, chat rooms or message boards; participate in chat rooms, blogs or other user forums; respond to polls or surveys; purchase merchandise via the Site; or seek help from our customer service departments, personal information may be collected.

During some visits, we may use software tools, such as Javascript, to measure and collect session information, including page response times, download errors, time spent on certain pages, page interaction information, and methods used to browse away from the page.
