ONLINE PRIVACY
POLICY
We are committed to protecting the privacy and security of the users of our
sites.
This privacy policy will advise you about how we protect your personal
information, and about what choices you have concerning our use of such
information. Please read this policy carefully. We may need to change this
policy from time to time in order to address new issues and reflect changes on
our sites. We will post those changes here so that you will always know what
information we gather, how we might use that information, and whether we will
disclose that information to anyone. Please refer back to this policy regularly.
If you have any questions or concerns about our privacy policy, please send
an e-mail to info@thecountry-club.com
or mail us at OLIVER LEADERSHIP INC. 225 -2035 Corydon Ave. Unit 162, Winnipeg, MB.

Scope of Privacy Policy This policy covers only information collected on
the Sites and does not cover any information-collected offline by us.
Personal Identification Information We may request personal identification
information from you in connection with your use of, or participation in, www.thecountry-club.com or www.o-live-r.com for
registration set-up and
Membership Application, Club Credentials, Survey Confidential, polls, forums,
subscription registrations, content submissions, chats, bulletin boards,
discussion groups, requests for suggestions, visitors' (guests') requests for
services or additional information (including via email to us), and in
connection with other activities, services or resources we make available on any
of our sites. In all of these cases, we will collect personal identification
information from you only if you voluntarily submit such information to us. We
will never intentionally disclose any personal identification information about
you as an individual user (such as, for example, your full name, street address,
telephone number, credit card number or e-mail address) to any third party
without having received your permission.
If you do provide us with personal information for any of these activities,
we may use it to conduct the activity. We may also use cookie technology
(discussed in detail below) to improve your experience of these
activities-including to remember your preferences, customize the content and
advertisements that you see or authenticate your access to your personal
information. In addition, in the event your personally identifiable information
is requested as part of our surveys or polls, such personally identifiable
information may be added to your registration information.
We may also use personal identification information for internal
or external marketing and promotional purposes. On occasion, for example, we may
send you e-mails to introduce a product or service that we think might be of
interest to the users of our sites.
We will release specific information about you or your account to comply with
any valid legal inquiry or process such as a search warrant, subpoena, statute
or court order. We will also release specific information in special cases, such
as if there is an attempted breach of the security of the Sites, or a physical
or property threat to you or others. We may also transfer user information,
including personally identifiable information, in connection with a corporate
merger, consolidation, the sale of related assets or corporate division or other
fundamental corporate change.
Please note that if you give out personal information online -- for example,
on one of our future public forums - that information can be collected and used
by third parties. Although we strive to protect our users' privacy, we cannot
guarantee the security of information you post in these forums. In addition, if
you choose to disclose your personal information on-line via Mentoring Women
connections, you disclose such information at your own risk. However, it is
understood by the members that all email conversations via the network
"Mentoring Women" are confidential in nature and are not to be made public or
used for any commercial purpose or gain. Any disclosure of personally
identifiable information between the members is at their sole discretion and is
outside of any privacy issues of The Country Club.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your information
and "club key" access and "password". You shall be responsible for all uses of
your registration, whether or not authorized by you. You agree to immediately
notify us of any unauthorized use of your registration or password.
Non-Personal Identification
Information We collect non-personal
identification information through the use of:
"Cookie" technology: A "cookie" is an element of data that a web site can
send to your browser, which may then store it on your system.
"IP address tracking": An IP address is a number that is assigned to your
computer when you are on the Internet. When you request pages from our Sites,
our servers log your IP address.
Non-personal identification information might include the browser you use,
the type of computer, technical information about your means of connection to
our site-such as the operating systems and the Internet service providers
utilized, and other similar information. Our systems may also automatically
gather information about the areas you visit and search terms you utilize on our
sites and about the links you may select from within our site to other areas of
the World Wide Web or elsewhere online.
We use such information to administer the site and, in the aggregate, to
understand how our users as a group use the services and resources provided on
our sites. This way we know which areas of our sites are favorites of our users,
which areas need improvement, and what technologies are being used so that we
may continually improve our sites.
In the event we choose to share this aggregate statistical information with
our partners, suppliers and other third parties, but we will not share any
individual names, personal navigational or other personal information. For
example, we may use a third-party advertising company to serve ads when you
visit our Sites. We may share demographic and preference information with this
company to allow them to display appropriate advertisements for you.
Some of our advertisers may display ads on our sites, which solicit or
contain technology to collect information about our users for the advertisers,
but we will not permit such advertisers to collect any personal information from
our users within our sites.
Most browsers are set to accept cookies. You can set your browser to refuse
cookies, or to alert you when cookies are being sent. If you do so, please note
that some parts of the Sites, such as message boards, chats, shopping, surveys
may not function properly
Privacy of Children We understand that young people need special
safeguards and privacy protection. We realize that they may not understand all
the provisions of our policy or be able to make thoughtful decisions about the
choices that are made available to our adult users. We strongly urge all parents
to participate in their children's exploration of the Internet and any online
services, and to teach their children about protecting their personal
information while online.
The Sites are not directed to children under the age of 18. We prohibit
registration by children under the age of 18 for all interactive portions of the
Sites including any future chats and message boards. We will not knowingly
collect personally identifiable information from children under 18.
Links To Other Sites Users may find advertising or other content on our
sites that link to the sites and services of our partners, suppliers,
advertisers, sponsors, licensors and other third parties. We do not control the
contents or links that appear on these sites. In addition, these sites or
services, including their contents and links, may be constantly changing. These
sites and services may have their own privacy policies and customer service
policies, or no policy (policies) at all. We encourage you to review the privacy
policies of any third party sites or services before providing any of them with
your personal information.
Security Policy Protecting your privacy and your information is a top
priority. We have taken careful measures to secure your information. We exercise
great care in providing safe transmission of your information from your PC to
our servers (unless sent by a means outside of our control, such as e-mail).

Club - DISTINCTIVE VOICES, DYNAMIC WOMEN

automatically renew. Your membership, user name and club key access will be
cancelled. If you choose to once again become a member, you will be required to
pay your initial set-up fee and annual membership dues at current rates to
re-establish your membership. This assumes you were a member in good standing.
We reserve the right to cancel any membership at any time and with or without
cause. All dues and fees are non-refundable.
Consent to Transfer The Sites are operated in Canada. Please be aware that
any information you provide to us will be transferred to Canada. By using our
Web Site, participating in any of our services and/or providing us with your
information, you consent to this transfer.

our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to this policy, please do not use our
sites. Your continued use of the Sites following the posting of changes to these
terms will mean that you accept those changes. By registering for membership

make any other guarantees. Whether you choose to utilize the site or
