PRIVACY POLICY
Last Updated: December 17th, 2011
So you're concerned about your privacy, huh? Well, that's good, cause so am I! On behalf of ApexFinancialPlanning.com, I strive to offer its visitors the many advantages of Internet technology and to provide an interactive and personalized experience. By the way, when I use 'I', 'my, or 'me' on this page, I mean to reference my company Apex Financial Planning LLC, represented online here at my site ApexFinancialPlanning.com. Anyway, I may use personally identifiable information (your name, e-mail address, street address, telephone number) subject to the terms of this privacy policy. The most important thing for you to know is that I will never sell, barter, or rent this personally identifiable information, such as your email address street address, telephone number, to any unauthorized third party. Period.
How I gather information from users
How I collect and store information depends on the page you are visiting, the activities in which you elect to participate and the services provided. For example, you may be asked to provide information when you register for access to certain portions of this site or request certain features, such as my online newsletter, or when you request information from me or refer a friend or a family member. You may also provide information when you participate in associated linked networking sites (such as facebook.com, twitter.com and linkedin.com), and other interactive areas of my site. Like most websites, my site ApexFinancialPlanning.com also collects information automatically and through the use of electronic tools that may be transparent to my visitors. For example, I may log the name of your Internet Service Provider or use cookie technology to recognize you and hold information from your visit. Among other things, the cookie may store your user name and password, sparing you from having to re-enter that information each time you visit, or may control the number of times you encounter a particular advertisement while visiting my site. As I adopt additional technology, I may also gather information through other means. In certain cases, you can choose not to provide me with information, for example by setting your browser to refuse to accept cookies, but if you do you may be unable to access certain portions of the site or may be asked to re-enter your user name and password, and I may not be able to customize the site’s features according to your preferences.
What I do with the information I collect
Like other Web publishers, I collect information to enhance your visit and deliver more individualized content and advertising. I respect your privacy and do not share your information with anyone. I assure you that I do not do that!
Please know however that aggregated Information (information that does not personally identify you) may be used in many ways by me. For example, I may combine information about your usage patterns with similar information obtained from other users to help enhance my site and services (e.g., to learn which pages are visited most, or what features are most attractive). Aggregated Information may also occasionally be shared with my business partners. Again, this information does not include any Personally Identifiable Information about you or allow anyone to identify you individually. In addition, I may use Personally Identifiable Information collected on my site ApexFinancialPlanning.com to communicate with you about your registration and customization preferences; my Terms of Service and privacy policy; services and products offered by my site ApexFinancialPlanning.com, and other topics I think you might find of interest.
Personally Identifiable Information collected by my site ApexFinancialPlanning.com may also be used for other purposes, including but not limited to site administration, troubleshooting, and other communications with you. Certain third parties who provide technical support for the operation of my site (my Web hosting service for example) may access such information. I will use your information only as permitted by law. In addition, from time to time as I continue to develop my business, I may sell, buy, merge or partner with other companies or businesses. In such transactions, user information may be among the transferred assets. I may also disclose your information in response to a court order, at other times when I believe I am reasonably required to do so by law, in connection with the collection of amounts you may owe to us, and/or to law enforcement authorities whenever I deem it appropriate or necessary. Please note I may not provide you with notice prior to disclosure in such cases.

Other features available on my site may offer services operated by third parties and may use cookies or other technology to gather information.
