HEDS does not associate sensitive data, such
as User's race, religion, or political affiliations, with personally
identifiable information. HEDS takes precautions to segregate any
sensitive data user may provide on HEDS sites and services that
reference user's race, religion, sexual orientation, ethnicity or
political affiliations.
Please keep in mind that if user directly discloses
personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through
HEDS Chats, HEDS Communities, or other public online
forums, this information may be collected and used by others. Note:
HEDS does not read or edit any of user's private online
communications. User’s HEDS Chat conversations, HEDS
Messenger messages, Hotmail e-mail, and HEDS Internet Access
e-mail are completely confidential.
HEDS encourages user to review the privacy
statements of Web sites user choose link to and from HEDS so that
user can understand how those Web sites collect, use and share user
information. HEALTH & ECO DEFENCE SOCIETY is not responsible for the
privacy statements or other content on Web sites outside of the HEALTH &
ECO DEFENCE SOCIETY and HEDS family of Web sites.
The user's information about his computer hardware
and software is automatically collected by HEDS and may be shared
with other Web sites within the HEALTH & ECO DEFENCE SOCIETY family of web
sites. This information can include: user's IP address, browser type,
domain names, access times and referring Web site addresses. This
information is used by HEDS for the operation of the service, to
maintain quality of the service, and to provide general statistics
regarding use of the HEDS Web sites.
User's Personal Information
HEDS Web sites and their operational service
partners collect and use user's personal information to operate
HEDS Web sites and deliver the services user have requested.
HEDS sites also use user's personally identifiable information to
inform user of other products or services available from HEALTH & ECO
DEFENCE SOCIETY and its affiliates. HEDS may also contact
user via surveys to conduct research about user's opinion of current
services or of potential new services that may be offered.
HEDS does not sell, rent or lease its
customer lists to third parties. HEDS may, from time to time,
contact user on behalf of external business partners about a particular
offering that may be of interest to user. In those cases, user's unique
personally identifiable information (e-mail, name, address, telephone
number) is not transferred to the third party. In addition, HEDS
may share data with trusted partners to help HEALTH & ECO DEFENCE
SOCIETY perform statistical analysis. All such third parties are prohibited
from using user's personal information except to provide these services
to HEALTH & ECO DEFENCE SOCIETY LTD, and they are required to maintain the
confidentiality of user's information.

a particular subject area.

information, without notice, only if required to do so by law or in the
good faith belief that such action is necessary to: (a) conform to the
edicts of the law or comply with legal process served on HEALTH & ECO
DEFENCE SOCIETY or the site; (b) protect and defend the rights or
property of HEALTH & ECO DEFENCE SOCIETY, an HEDS Web site; and,

Use of Cookies
HEDS Web site may uses "cookies" to help
customer and user to personalize his online experience. A cookie is a
text file that is placed on user's hard disk by a Web page server.
Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to user's
computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to user, and can only be read by
a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to user.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to
provide a convenience feature to save user's time. The purpose of a
cookie is to tell the Web server that user have returned to a specific
page. For example, if user personalizes HEDS's pages, or register
with HEDS site or services, a cookie helps HEDS to
identify user's specific information on subsequent visits. This
simplifies the process of recording user's personal information, such as
billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When user return to
the same HEDS Web site, the information user previously provided
can be retrieved, so user can easily use the HEDS features that
user customized.
User have the ability to accept or decline cookies.
Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but user can usually
modify user's browser setting to decline cookies if user prefer. If user
chooses to decline cookies, user may not be able to fully experience the
interactive features of the HEDS services or Web sites user
visit.
Use of Web Beacons
HEDS Web pages may contain electronic images
known as Web beacons - sometimes called single-pixel gifs - that allow
HEDS to count users who have visited those pages and to deliver
co-branded services. Web beacons are not used to access user's
personally identifiable information on the HEDS network of sites
and services; they are a technique HEALTH & ECO DEFENCE SOCIETY use to
compile aggregated statistics about HEDS Web site usage.
Web beacons collect only a limited set of
information including a cookie number, time and date of a page view, and
a description of the page on which the Web beacon resides. HEDS
Web pages may also contain Web beacons placed there by HEALTH & ECO
DEFENCE SOCIETY advertising partner, to help to access the effectiveness of
Internet advertising campaigns.
Use of Third Party Ad Networks
HEALTH & ECO DEFENCE SOCIETY displays majority of the
online banner advertisements to viewer on HEDS Web sites.
In addition, HEDS also allows other
companies, called third-party ad servers or ad networks, to display
advertisements on HEDS Web sites. To do this, ad networks place a
persistent cookie on user's computer. Doing this allows the ad network
to recognize user's computer each time they send user an online
advertisement. In this way, ad networks may compile information about
where user, or others who are using their computer, see their
advertisements and determine which ads are clicked on. This information
allows an ad network to deliver advertisements that they believe will be
of most interest to user. HEALTH & ECO DEFENCE SOCIETY does not have
access to or control of the cookies that may be placed by the
third-party ad servers or ad networks.
If user want to prevent one of these third-party
companies from sending and reading cookies on user's computer, user will
need to visit each ad network's Web site individually and request that
user remove from its system.
Security of User's Personal Information
HEDS secures user personal information from
unauthorized access, use or disclosure. HEDS secures the
personally identifiable information user provide on computer servers in
a controlled, secure environment, protected from unauthorized access,
use or disclosure.

to the Privacy Statement link on the front page of HEDS. If there
are material changes to this Statement or in how HEDS will use
user's personally identifiable information, HEDS will prominently
post such changes prior to implementing the change. HEDS
encourages user to periodically review this Statement to be informed of
how HEALTH & ECO DEFENCE SOCIETY is protecting user's information.
