PRIVACY POLICY
For the purposes of this policy,
uses of the word(s): I, me, my, myself, and applicant shall refer to the
person reading this Privacy Policy to which it applies.
The following Privacy
Policy applies only to the xiaix.com web site
and information provided by you or
otherwise collected online through the xiaix.com web site.
We Are Concerned About Privacy
Your privacy is very important
to us. XIAIX respects and protects the privacy of its visitors. In this document,
we explain how we use the information you supply us. If we update our
privacy policy, all revisions will be posted on this page. We reserve
the right to change the privacy policy at any time.
Information Collection and
Use
Two types of information may
be collected when you visit our web sites, information that you knowingly
provide us (called personally identifiable information), and information
that is obtained from your visit but is not directly associated with you
(called non-personally identifiable information).
Personally Identifiable
Information
Personally identifiable
information may include information that you provide to us by filling
out and submitting a Staff application. This may include your name, address
(including billing and shipping addresses), telephone number, e-mail address,
organization, city, state, zip code and personal photo and/or photo identification.
We may use this information, to process your application, to contact you
about the status of your application, or to contact you with answers to
your questions. We may use mailings, telephone calls and e-mail to contact
you.
Non-Personally Identifiable
Information
Non-personally identifiable
information is collected without any direct association with you specifically.
In the normal course of using an XIAIX web site, we may collect information
about your habits and usage of our sites.
Our web sites may contain technologies known as action tags, web beacons
or 1x1 pixel GIF's. These employ a common internet technique used to compile
aggregated statistics about the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns,
common navigation paths within the sites, types of browsers and platforms
that access the sites and the average connection speeds used to connect
to the sites. This information is used to enhance the online experience
of our visitors. These technologies do not use or collect personally
identifiable information, such as names or address, and do not link online actions to an identifiable person.
An IP address is a number that is assigned to your computer when you are
using the Internet. Web servers automatically identify your computer by
its IP address.
XIAIX collects IP addresses for the purposes of system administration, to
report aggregated information and to audit the use of our site. If we
are required to do so by law, for example, in response to a court order
or subpoena, we will provide these IP addresses to the proper authorities.
Information Sharing and
Disclosure
Agents, Staff members
and owners of XIAIX who have access to personally identifiable information
are required to protect this information in a manner that is consistent
with this Privacy Policy and the high standards XIAIX maintains.
• Information about you specifically will not be used for any purpose
other than to carry out the services you requested from XIAIX.
• We will not sell or rent your personally identifiable information
to anyone at any time.
• We will not use any personal information beyond what is necessary
to assist us in delivering to you the services you have requested.
• We may send personally identifiable information about you to other
organizations when:
• We have your consent to share the information (you
will be provided the opportunity to opt-out if you desire).
• We need to share your information in order to provide
the product or service you have requested.
• We are required to do so by law, for example, in
response to a court order or subpoena.

policy does not apply to these sites.
We Will Not Condition Access

XIAIX will not condition a user's
access or participation in an activity on giving out more personal information
than what is considered reasonably necessary for the activity.
How Changes To The Privacy
Policy Will Be Communicated
If we decide to change our
Privacy Policy, we will post those changes to this privacy statement,
the homepage, and other places we deem appropriate so our users are always
aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances,
if any, we disclose it.
If however, we are going to use users' personally identifiable information
in a manner different from that stated at the time of collection we will
notify users by posting a notice on our web site for 30 days.
