Help
User Names
The SENIORSonly CLUB requires the use of a first name and a surname. However, we do not require you to use your actual name. Due to legitimate privacy concerns, we recommend that you use a fictitious surname.
In order to facilitate comfortable conversation, however, we ask that you choose a name that sounds as if it could be a real name. Choose carefully, because our software does not permit names to be changed after registration.
Children's Privacy
Since the SENIORSonly CLUB forum is intended for persons fifty years of age or older, children should not be accessing the site, and would not have access unless they lied about their age during the registration policy. The SENIORSonly CLUB does not target its web site to children or to adults under the age of fifty.
TYPES OF INFORMATION WE COLLECT
Log Files
Log files are maintained and analyzed of all requests for files on this web site's web servers, as is the case on most web sites. Our log files do not capture personal information, but they do capture the user's IP address, which is automatically recognized by our web servers.
Aggregate Information
The SENIORSonly CLUB web site may gather aggregate information, which refers to information that your computer automatically provides to us, but which cannot be tied back to you as a specific individual. Examples include referral data (the web sites that you visited before and just after our site), the pages viewed, time spent on our web site, and Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. An IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to your computer whenever you access the Internet. For example, when your web browser requests a page from our web site, our servers will log your IP address in order to create aggregate reports on user demographics and traffic patterns, and for purposes of system administration.
Cookies

Cookies are used in a number of ways, such as to save your password so that you do not have to re-enter it each time you visit our web site, to deliver content specific to your interests, and to track the pages that you visit while on our site. These cookies allow the software that powers the SENIORSonly CLUB forum to customize your experience, so that your visit to our site is as relevant and valuable to you as possible.
Most web browser software can be set up to deal with cookies. You may modify your browser preferences to provide you with certain choices regarding cookies. You may have the choice to accept all cookies, to be notified when a cookie is set, or to reject all cookies.
However, if you choose to reject all cookies, certain of the functions, conveniences, and features of our forum may not work properly, and you may be unable to use services that require registration in order to participate, or you may have to enter your full log-in and password each time you attempt to participate in forum discussions.
Most browsers offer instructions on how to reset the browser to reject cookies in the "Help" section of the toolbar. We do not link to non-personal information from cookies for the purpose of personally identifiable information without your consent.
The SENIORSonly CLUB web site does not store any information that would, on its own, allow us to identify individual users of this forum without their permission. Any cookies that may be used by this web site are used either on a per session basis or to maintain user preferences. In no event are cookies shared with any third parties.
Personal Information
Personal information is that which is associated with your name or personal identity. The SENIORSonly CLUB uses personal information to better understand your needs and interests, and to provide you with a better forum experience.
On some of our pages, you may be able to request information, subscribe to mailing lists, participate in online discussions, collaborate on documents, provide feedback, submit information into registries, register for events, apply for membership, or join certain working groups. The type of personal information you provide to us on these pages may include name (which does not have to be your real name), a valid email address, birthdate information, and user IDs.
Please remember that any information, including personal information, that you disclose in public areas of the SENIORSonly CLUB forum, becomes public information that others may collect, circulate, and use. Because we cannot and do not control the actions of others, it is recommended that you exercise caution when deciding to disclose personal information about yourself and others in public forums.
Membership
Membership in the SENIORSonly CLUB is free, but required in order for a person to participate in forum discussions, but membership is not required in order to view forum discussions and other areas of the site.
The information that you provide on the SENIORSonly CLUB's membership or registration application is used to create a member profile, and to determine eligibility.
As a registered member of the SENIORSonly CLUB forum, you should be aware that some items of your personal information may be visible to other members and to the public. Options are available within your profile that will allow you to prohibit, control, or limit the information that is made available to other members and to the public, however. Please contact the Forum Administrator if you require help with these settings.
In order to preserve the continuity of forum discussions and the integrity of post counts, we will not delete posts after replies have been made to them. For the same reason, we do not delete memberships of those who have posted to the forum.
Email Address
We require a valid email address for registration, but your email address is not viewable by other members.
Other members may be able to contact you through the SENIORSonly CLUB's platform, but your email address is not viewable to them. There are also certain options that you may make within your own membership profile that would prohibit or limit the contact that other members may make with you.
Birthdates
Because the SENIORSonly CLUB is restricted to members fifty years of age or older, we do require that you provide us with your birthdate. By default, this information will be available to others who visit your profile. You may, however, elect to hide this information from other members, or to make only a portion of this information viewable to other members.
