This Privacy Policy explains the policy of Starmark International Inc. ("Starmark") regarding the privacy of information supplied by USERS of thestarmark.com (the "SITE") or collected by STARMARK from SITE USERS. STARMARK intends to build USER trust and confidence in the SITE and is committed to protecting USER privacy.

The SITE server automatically recognizes the Internet URL from which a visitor is accessing the SITE. STARMARK may log a USER's IP address for system administration and troubleshooting purposes. (A USER's IP address indicates the location of the USER's computer on the Internet.)
STARMARK does NOT disclose a USER's specific information (personal and confidential) to third parties. STARMARK does, however, identify a USER in connection with its use of certain aspects of the SITE.

The SITE employs "cookies" to speed navigation of the Web site, recognize each USER and his or her access privileges, and track a USER's site usage. "Cookies" are small pieces of information that are stored by a USER's Internet browser on a USER's computer's hard drive. Most Internet browsers are initially set to accept cookies. A USER can set his or her browser to refuse cookies, but the USER will not be able to use the SITE. The SITE's cookies do not have the capability of infiltrating a USER's hard drive and gathering a USER's personal and confidential business information.

If STARMARK decides to change or update this Privacy Policy, it will post those changes and updates on this page so that the USER is always aware of what information STARMARK collects, how it uses that information, and under what circumstances STARMARK discloses it. STARMARK encourages each USER to review this Privacy Policy from time to time so USERS will know if the Privacy Policy has been updated or amended. If you have any questions about the SITE's Privacy Policy, please contact STARMARK at customerservice@thechinesebooks.com.
