I recently had the pleasure of checking out Leigh Peele’s new food system, Body by Eats. I have to say that Leigh Peele has really done it again with her new book.  The system starts off with a very interesting setup for change your mindset about food.  She debunks common mis-perceptions about nutrition, and explains research behind common food issues.

In addition to the great recipes and delicious food, this book answers the questions that come up after the confusing media machine that has buy-in for what we eat like:

Click here to go to Body By Eats

• Should you eat carbs?

• Is organic really better for you?

• Should you eat grass fed or regular beef?

• Are artificial sweeteners safe?

• What about those plastics that are supposedly leeching into your food?

• What foods are actually safe and nutritious to eat?

• Are vegan and vegetarian diets healthy?

• What the heck should I eat anyway?

• The secret reason why you should cook, and it isn’t what you think it is.

And, since the whole point is the food, Body By Eats also has over a 100 great, healthy recipes.

Pros

If you love food, you’ve come to the right place.  Leigh Peele does too, and she won’t tell you to throw out everything you love and start eating boneless, skinless chicken breasts and broccoli for every meal.  The Body By Eats system is full of recipes, and good ones too.

I highly recommend that you get the whole enchilada program, the Gold version, that comes with the desserts and bulking cookbooks, because really, more options are better, especially when you’re looking for something sweet or trying to do something specialized like bulk up.  But at any rate, go for the gold, and get the whole thing.  This is your health we’re talking about.

Body By Eats will help you figure out what is right for you in regards to what you eat, it is not full of preachy rules and half truths.  Leigh is devoted to helping you figure out what you’re doing right and what could be changed, but best of all who you actually are in regards to what you eat.

There is a  lot of information about issues that keep coming up in the media that are confusing and misleading.  This is a book for people who THINK ABOUT what they’re eating, and are trying to do the right thing (even when they don’t always know what that is).

Best of all, you get the benefit of Leigh’s personal research and experience with personal training, which is worth its weight in gold.

If you’ve tried lots of diets in the past and failed miserably because you didn’t like the food and always kept coming back to that, this is the book for you.

All of the information is delivered in Leigh Peele’s typical humorous manner.  It is impossible to read anything she writes and actually be bored.  I read a lot of nutrition books for this site, and frankly, most sound like VCR instructions.  I find my eyes glazing over and just hoping for it to end quickly.  This is never the case with Leigh’s book, or her previous book, The Fat Loss Troubleshoot (which is amazing if you’ve hit a fat loss plateau by the way).

Cons

You have to be ready to examine your own misconceptions about your diet.  This is truly about food and your relationship with it.  Leigh doesn’t provide you with a strict “eat this, eat that” plan, it is more open ended.  But that is the genius and beauty of it.  She provides the tools to figure out what could work for you in regards to what you eat, but you have to pick them up and use them.

This is a nutritional system for thinkers, and people willing to work.  If you need a cut and paste “diet” where someone tells you exactly what to eat from day to day, this is not your system.  If you want hand holding, this is not your system.  If you want to eat great food and look great too, this is your system.

Conclusion

Body By Eats is filled with delicious recipes, awesome research and it is compulsively readable.  My eyes didn’t glaze over, I didn’t skim, Leigh Peele drew me in and I read this book in one sitting. Afterward, I wanted to go to the store to get ingredients to cook with even though it was 1 o’clock in the morning.

I printed out the recipes and got the whole thing made into a paper copy so I can take it into the kitchen.  I don’t do that very often, there are few systems that capture my attention so strongly and drive me to action.  After reading Leigh’s other book, The Fat Loss Troubleshoot, and knowing what magic that can work on one’s fat loss plateaus, I trust that Leigh Peele knows what she’s talking about.  She has definitely done it again with Body By Eats.

I hope you enjoyed my Body By Eats review.  Check out an interview with Leigh Peele about the Body By Eats program.

Question: What do you do and what lead you into this industry?

Answer: Heh depends on the day but most of the time I find myself training people or writing to help them. I got in this field, and please forgive me for the cliché, to help people. I also saw that there was a hole in the industry for the types of things I had to say or more so the way I say them. Different people can help you in different ways. I think there is room for multiple cooks in the kitchen when they are all contributing something valuable to the table.

Click here to go to Body By Eats

Question: Do you only work in fat loss?

Answer: No not at all, but it is my specialty. I read through a lot of research and I find nutrition and weight loss to be my constant draws. It also brings about the highest levels of gratification if I can be truly honest. I love helping someone increasing their athletic performance. I love helping a skinny guy add on muscle but, there is something though about seeing a person transform in front of your eyes and melt away into this new person. It’s downright addictive.

Question: Your first release The Fat Loss Troubleshoot has been very successful, congratulations. Can you give a brief rundown of what that book is about?

Answer: Thanks. Really it is a package/collection of multiple sources of material. It is way beyond just a book at this point and will continue to be so as it is constantly updated. In short, the package is about fat loss almost any way you slice it.

Can you please everyone all the time? No, but you can answer them and that is what I have done. Everyone from bodybuilders to recovering anorexics are covered in this collection. There are program designs, explanations about various myths and nutritional strategies. It literally puts you in control of fat loss so that you don’t blindly follow a program no knowing why it didn’t work.

Take something like Billy Blanks Tae-Bo system. Millions of people have bought this system and for some people it works but for most it does not. This is because people don’t understand how it is supposed to work in the first place. They think that a different dvd is going to cause a different reaction and it doesn’t work that way. You have to understand how fat loss works first and then if you want to get creative about how to go about it, fine.

I am about teaching you the science; the facts. While I give you multiple methods to apply it the truth is that you have control to go even more outside the box and custom for you once you learned it.

Question: It is currently unavailable due to updates correct? When will you re-release it?

Answer: Correct. I am updating it for re-release but it will be available for the 3 day launch of Body By Eats as addition if the customer so desires to select it. It release to the public in regular fashion will at least be the beginning of next year. However everyone who buys ANY version of it will always get updates for free.

Question: So let’s talk about Body By Eats. What is the basic premises of the book?

Answer: Originally I called it “The Caloric Burn Cookbook” because I was going to focus primarily on my research with caloric burn in everyday movement and how important general activity was to achieving your fat loss goal. Caloric burn is not static, is is forever changing an always will be. Cooking is an amazing way to achieve that burn and in turn you become connected to food in the right way. You only need to make manipulations of that in small amounts while trying to achieve your goals.

The most important aspect though is about embracing food. I want people to embrace it, love to eat and cook amazing food. I want to remove the idea from their heads that healthy food is bland food. The best chefs in the world use whole fresh ingredients to make the most amazing food and most of the time the calories are not that high. It is all about perception.

One twist thrown in the book is about the public health and food as a whole. I was writing the book I started to get really caught up in the constant discussions that were occurring about the food industry. Things like HFCS and the use of organics. I had personally been someone who bought organic foods and went out of my way to support local farming and businesses. I started learning more about it and realized, like most things in life, what I thought I knew wasn’t true at all.

So the book kind of took this turn where it was about all of it. Embracing life, our health, activity, etc.

Question: What kinds of things are you covering with Body By Eats that other people aren’t?

Answer: Truthfully I can say that I have not read any of this stuff published yet and that in general my outlook on food and intake for results are not common. I am a little outside of the box all the way because I not only believe in balance and moderation with enjoyment, I can prove that it is good for you. I mix science with common sense and wrap it in a mouth watering dessert. I don’t think that has been done yet ha.

Question: Do you feel the site is just as important as the book?

Answer: It is crucial. In fact part of me was thinking of not releasing actual books at all but instead keeping it just to a site. I decided against that though mainly because different people have different time constraints. Not everyone is going to want to participate in the site as much as even they want to.

I look at the book and the recipes as a introduction into this knowledge and a stepping stone for using the site and the forums to go deeper in that knowledge. Also getting a chance to talk to me 1-on-1 in a month is good to because a lot can be resolved faster with verbal dialogue.

The site is crucial and I am expecting a lot of people who can offer help and those who need help.

Question: Let’s talk about my favorite part, the food. This is a really nice collection of recipes right?

Answer: Absolutely. With the first package alone you are going to receive 100+ recipes to work with and then each month you get a new book with 30 recipes. You will have a new recipe to use every day for the entire year and then some. There are also chances to win additional recipe books if need.

These aren’t your standard run of the mill recipes either. They take macros into account like other books don’t. You can measure in grams or cups. You have all the stats you need and you have use and other members for support on how to do something if you mess up or get stuck. There will also be videos, general food tips, and more.

Question: So your products are vegetarian/vegan friendly?

Answer: There will be a specific download for vegetarians and vegans and there will be new recipe in the future as well. Body By Eats is 100% vegetarian friendly. There will also be other groups like Gluten and even other cultures like Thai addressed. Even kids will be getting a bonus manual as the months go by.

Question: If you could only get one point across about Body By Eats what would it be?

Answer: Body By Eats is about the concept of getting back to the good in life and not being afraid of food but embracing it. We are scared of food because of gaining fat. We are scared of food because of what it does to the earth to produce it. We are scared of food because of what we hear it can do to our bodies. I want to remove all of that and in the process give you good eats and the body you want.

Question: I’ll look forward to hearing more about Body By Eats.

Answer: Thanks for having me.

Check out my review of The Fat Loss Troubleshoot

Reviewer: Elaine Erikson
Rating:
Program Reviewed:  Fit Yummy Mummy by Holly Rigsby

So does it work?  Holly’s Fit Yummy Mummy program is built on sound nutritional and workout principles.  If you follow it, it will help you lose your baby weight.  But you must stick to the program, there is no magic here.  If you do what Holly recommends and are thorough with your eating habits and workouts, you’ll definitely be able to reshape your body into a much leaner fit version.

Click here to go to Fit Yummy Mummy

Holly starts the book with a section on goal setting, because it is crucial to know what you are trying to achieve. Next she moves to some important basics about your metabolism.  Then she gets into the meat of the program… the food.  Her program is a lifestyle change based on whole, clean food.  You won’t be hungry on this plan because she recommends eating at least every 3-3 1/2 hours.

Nutrition Plan

The nutrition plan is very complete, yet easy to follow if you simply plan ahead and chart out what you’re planning on eating in advance.  She recommends cooking meals in advance so you aren’t a slave to your kitchen.  There is a portion of the book about eating out, snacks and cheat meals, and explains exactly WHY you should follow the plan as well as a road map to reach your weight loss goals.

What I really like about the program is that it isn’t a recipe for deprivation.  Holly explains how to eat at restaurants healthfully to stay on track.  There aren’t any banished foods, she just explains mindfulness about what you eat and WHY you should avoid junk food, and alternatives.  The section about slip-ups is genius because it explains why you shouldn’t worry if you aren’t perfect, and what to do to immediately get back on track.

I really like the section about alternative foods to eat as snacks instead of hitting the junk food.  Since it is a lifestyle change program, there aren’t any gimmicky concepts (no liquid diet, no strange foods, no punishment).  The nutritional section is solid, and applicable.  I could go in my kitchen tonight and recreate the meals without breaking a sweat.

Workout Plan

Next stop is the workout program (where I hope you break a sweat).  I really like how Holly explains why being a “cardio queen” is a bad thing, and how you should change it.  She explains resistance training and why it is essential for getting the lean, fit body everyone seems to be trying for (I’m not at a loss for why, Holly looks great).

The workout program is a very effective interval-based training program.  There is a 16 week workout schedule that you customize based on four different formats based on your own personal goals.  It looks complicated at first but really isn’t as hard as it looks once you reach the section that contains photos of Holly doing the exercises.  I would definitely print this part out to refer back to it.

One really great part about the workout section is that you can do these moves with minimal time and equipment, so they are really great for fitting into your already jam packed schedule (baby napping? do planks!!).  You can get these workouts done with a mat, simple dumbells, a bench or a step, swiss ball and medicine ball.  That is super minimal when you compare it with a bunch of hulky gym equipment.

The index contains goal setting worksheets, how to create your own workout journal, sample menus, information about food labels,  grocery shopping survival tips, a fat loss troubleshooting checklist, and a whole bunch of extra exercises in an archive with full instructions.

Also, this program comes with tons of bonuses.  Holly includes 9 bonus ebooks; a cellulite cure, Fast Easy Meals, Meal Plans 101, 6 Minute Circuit Workouts, a 7 Minute Quick Start Guide, the Dress Size Reduction Diet, the New Mom’s Jumpstart, the Stylish Mom ebook and an additional Nutrition Guide.  To top it off, there is an audio book about getting organized so you can fit fitness into your day without losing your mind.

Bottom line, this is the complete package for changing your body and getting a lean, fit physique you can be proud of.

Downsides

This isn’t an easy program.  It is simple, but it really requires follow through.  You are aiming to get in the best shape you’ve been in.  That isn’t an easy goal to reach.  Holly provides you all of the tools to get where you want to go, but you must, must follow the program.

Other than that, I strongly recommend this plan for getting rid of your pregnancy weight.  Holly Rigsby has been incredibly thorough and you will definitely benefit if you pick up this plan and follow it to the letter.

I hope this Fit Yummy Mummy Review was helpful.  I strongly recommend that you check out the Fit Yummy Mummy program to get rid of that pregnancy weight.

According to Vince DelMonte, you should get a grip on reality and stop discouraging yourself – you actually can get muscles and lose weight if you actually follow a plan. He built the plan for you to get results with his No-Nonsense Muscle Building program.

Vince’s program is more about achieving a muscular fitness model type physique instead of bulking up.

No matter what approach he has, the program is sure to make even the scrawniest guy totally ripped with enough work and determination. Vince’s method for gaining muscles is the one he’s used over and over again on himself and the people he personally trains, and it works. It’s the perfect way for skinny guys to get ripped fast.

No-Nonsense Growth Principles

Vince’s workout program revolves around nine integral growth principles that you should follow. Whether or not they state them, you’ll find these principles in any muscle building program you choose. However, some trainers can often mistake or ignore some of the principles, which is where your progress will be stunted.

If you’re looking to make a lot of progress on your muscle gain, you have to adhere to each principle into your workout routine. Despite what seems like a lot of complex concepts, Vince’s program spells it out for you easily and plainly, so you can understand concepts like correct intensity, progressive overload, and heavy weight training.

There are even some principles that revolve around resting your body correctly. A lot of trainers fail to impress the importance of body recovery to their clients, which is where they go wrong? This idea is central to Vince’s principles, as the body has to rest properly or it will fail more easily.

Hormones are a significant chapter of his program. Proper knowledge of hormones affects your ability to gain and build muscle, so hormone knowledge is an essential part of the program. Vince’s program is specially formulated to make your muscle building hormones increase production.

Starting Your Training

Vince’s program is a step by step, periodization-based program that’s a lot more complex than just hitting the gym. Vince’s method is much different from HIT-centric regimens, when you’re mainly lifting heavy weights for a few repetitions; this program contains periodization, which will have you change sets and reps in order to stimulate different types of muscle fibers and prevent your body from adapting to the program. Each phase of the workout increases in intensity.

It can possibly be a bit confusing at first. You may want to read the program carefully in order to understand fully the benefits of taking on such a rich workout system. Luckily, the program includes a full 52-week workout plan from Vince’s members section. You’ll get calendars that outline each exercise you do that day, animations that show you how to do the exercise, and added advice for safely performing them, so you know what you’re getting into.

You’ll be going to the gym 3 times a week for have complete full-body workout routines that will build muscle. Vince’s program emphasizes creating a program for your individual needs, and Vince helps you decide if your performance shows that a lighter program might be ideal for you. You’ll also learn ways to figure out how well you’re doing.

Other important things in the training section are training in flexibility (stretching from day one), and specialty workouts intended to fix your weak spots and minimize muscle imbalances. You’ll start simply, and as you get better your techniques will become more complicated to the point where you’re doing advanced workouts.

Cardio Training

If you’re particularly skinny and need to put on muscle before anything else, you won’t see much cardio at first. After the first month passes, however, you’ll start to incorporate it into your regular workout.

Vince’s program, despite what you may think, has a large amount of time concentrated on losing your fat, which will allow you to get the muscle in to replace it. Cardio will help you do that, and Vince’s section on it is comprehensive, with several different ways to cut fat.

Eating Plan

The most important aspect of dieting in order to build muscle is figuring out what foods will do you good, and how much of it you need to eat. Vince’s section on dieting uses a lot of science (including TEF and RMR) in order to help you figure out where you should start.

Vince’s program has an online calculated that can quickly figure out what you need to do in order to get where you need to be, whether your goal is maintenance, cutting, advanced weight gain or progressive weight gain; measurements and activity levels entered in the calculator will let you assess your progress.

The calorie intake figures may seem a bit steep to the beginner.

Vince makes it clear through his dieting section that he thoroughly understands that dieting to gain weight is harder than it seems. Vince doesn’t allow the excuses that skinnier people often have when faced with eating a lot, excuses like too fast of a metabolism, lack of appetite and already eating a lot.

Vince’s program has grocery lists, ways to clean out your pantry, and various methods of starting your new diet. There are ways to get your body to start behaving properly once you start your diet, and even methods that will help you slowly get into the diet, replacing bad food with good food that can help you gain muscle and live healthier.

Vince will also let you know about the specific intervals in which you need to feed your muscles the right nutrition, which is known as nutrient timing. Vince also has 10 No Nonsense Nutrition Rules that will help you gain muscle. Dieting will be a snap with these rules applied to it. Your weight gain will be extremely easy and quick if you hold true to them.

There are even sample diets that will help you simplify your program. With Vince’s program, you’ll have nearly three months of free meal plans, from 2,000 to 6,000 calorie diet regimens. It doesn’t get much easier that this program.

Supplements

Nowhere in Vince’s program is any mention of overly complicated diet supplements and the companies who make them. He will warn you about the people who will say anything to you to get you to buy their supplement, so ignore what they claim.

There are a few supplements that will honestly aid you on your journey, which Vince will list off in his program. Ceatine and glutamine are very beneficial for your system, and Vince will outline the ways to use them to their fullest in order to meet your personal goals.

Weight gainers and MRPs bought in a store won’t help you one iota. You can add nutrient rich shakes to your diet in order to accent it. There are recipes for beneficial weight gain shakes in Vince’s program, which are a lot better for you than the shakes you buy in a store. It’ll take more time to make, but it’ll be cheaper in the long run, not to mention delicious and beneficial. It’s fantastic.

Great Bonuses

Each person’s goals will be different. Vince will help you with your individual weight gain desires. He’ll give you three months of email consultation with his program, which will help personalize your quest for muscle.

The 52-Week Intensive Workout Plan is another plus. This is an online members section outfitted with its own workout schedule, which gives you the exercises you should do each specific day, as well as how to do that exercise and ways to optimize it for your goals. Your progress will be recorded, so you can see how you’re doing as well, which will help you immensely in your journey to fitness.

There are Empowered Nutrition 84 Day Meal Plans to help you diet. Twelve weeks of complete and detailed meal plans will be at your fingertips, no matter what level of calories you wish to take in, from 2,000 to 6,000. You’ll have delicious and varied meals six times a day. There are also recipes and grocery lists to make getting the food together easier. It’s like having a magic key to healthy dieting!

Vince’s Insane Muscle Simulator also comes with the package. This is comprehensive book illustrating hundreds of effective exercises, including advice and tricks to maximize each exercise’s benefits as you perform them – this will really help you pin down those workouts and make sure you’re doing them right.

Vince’s Supplement Files are also included. In the Supplement Files, you’ll have a list of truly reliable supplements and the brands that sell them.

In addition to all this, you’ll have access to audio clips of his fitness tips, the ability to update your program endlessly, and you can even take part in tele-seminars.

Why You Should Upgrade

You can get your program enhanced into the “Powered Upgrades Package,” which includes a lot more to help you lose weight and gain muscle for yourself.

Vince includes a way to cut fat quickly. You can definitely add muscle before you know it. This plan is only for those who want to get ripped quickly.

There are more great meal plans to choose from with these bonuses. There’s nearly three months of vegetarian-centric meals with four different levels of calorie intake, and you can even get bodybuilding meal plans on a budget with this added feature. If you don’t eat meat, you’ll love the veggie meal plans. Despite the fact that it’s cheaper in the long run to get more healthy stuff anyway, there are meal plans for those who have even tighter budgets than most and still want to get healthy.

The premium version includes a down-loadable audio version whole eBook so you can listen to it. If you commute, this is perfect for that long ride to work or home.

With this program, you’ll be able to talk to Vince about your plan for life. You can even get advice on what to do to gain even more muscle years after you started, so if you have some fine tuning to do, you’ll have an expert who’s just an email away!

Now for the downsides…

You can find some places in the eBook where it appears cluttered. Granted, this is an innovative program, and can be a bit hard to follow at times. It takes a periodic stance on exercise and diet, and can be confusing at first. The member’s area, however, is where it all tends to come together.

You won’t find any alternate exercises in the book. If you’re training from home, it can be a little harder to apply some of these exercises, which involve large gym equipment.

Verdict

Vince used to be a skinny guy, as is clear from the book, and found a way to get a great physique, and now he wants to share it. There’s a lot of personal training experience speaking through the text, so you know you’re dealing with a professional.

There are vivid and detailed scenarios that Vince outlines for you in order to change your body for the better. There’s something to do every day that will help you get where you want to be. Just follow the steps and the meal plan, and most of the work is done for you. Following this plan will help you pack on the muscle you’ve been wanting and also live a healthier life.  Definitely worth checking out.

What Information Do We Collect?
When you visit this web site you may provide us with two types of information: personal information you knowingly choose to disclose that is collected on an individual basis and Web site use information collected on an aggregate basis as you and others browse our Web site.

1. Personal Information You Choose to Provide

Registration Information

Email Information
If you choose to correspond with us through email, we may retain the content of your email messages together with your email address and our responses. We provide the same protections for these electronic communications that we employ in the maintenance of information received by mail and telephone.

2. Web Site Use Information
Similar to other commercial Web sites, our Web site utilizes a standard technology called “cookies” (see explanation below, “What Are Cookies?”) and web server log files to collect information about how our Web site is used. Information gathered through cookies and Web server logs may include the date and time of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at our Web site, and the Web sites visited just before and just after our Web site.

How Do We Use the Information That You Provide to Us?

Broadly speaking, we use personal information for purposes of administering our business activities, providing the products and services you requested, to process your payment, , to monitor the use of the service, our marketing and promotional efforts and improve our content and service offerings, and customize our site’s content, layout, services and for other lawful purposes. These uses improve our site and better tailor it to meet your needs.

Furthermore, such information may be shared with others on an aggregate basis. Personally identifiable information or business information will not be shared with parties except as required by law.

What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a Web site, that site’s computer asks your computer for permission to store this file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated for cookies. Each Web site can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser’s preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a Web site to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites. Browsers are usually set to accept cookies. However, if you would prefer not to receive cookies, you may alter the configuration of your browser to refuse cookies. If you choose to have your browser refuse cookies, it is possible that some areas of our site will not function as effectively when viewed by the users. A cookie cannot retrieve any other data from your hard drive or pass on computer viruses.

How Do We Use Information We Collect from Cookies?
As you visit and browse our Web site, the site uses cookies to differentiate you from other users. In some cases, we also use cookies to prevent you from having to log in more than is necessary for security. Cookies, in conjunction with our Web server’s log files, allow us to calculate the aggregate number of people visiting our Web site and which parts of the site are most popular. This helps us gather feedback to constantly improve our Web site and better serve our clients. Cookies do not allow us to gather any personal information about you and we do not intentionally store any personal information that your browser provided to us in your cookies.

IP Addresses
IP addresses are used by your computer every time you are connected to the Internet. Your IP address is a number that is used by computers on the network to identify your computer. IP addresses are automatically collected by our web server as part of demographic and profile data known as traffic data so that data (such as the Web pages you request) can be sent to you.

Sharing and Selling Information
We do not share, sell, lend or lease any of the information that uniquely identify a subscriber (such as email addresses or personal details) with anyone except to the extent it is necessary to process transactions or provide services that you have requested.

How Can You Access and Correct Your Information?
You may request access to all your personally identifiable information that we collect online and maintain in our database by emailing us at the usual address.

What About Legally Compelled Disclosure of Information?
We may disclose information when legally compelled to do so, in other words, when we, in good faith, believe that the law requires it or for the protection of our legal rights. We may also disclose account information when we have reason to believe that disclosing this information is necessary to identify, contact or bring legal action against someone who may be violating our Terms of Service or to protect the safety of our users and the Public.

What About Other Web Sites Linked to Our Web Site?
We are not responsible for the practices employed by Web sites linked to or from our Web site or the information or content contained therein. Often links to other Web sites are provided solely as pointers to information on topics that may be useful to the users of our Web site.

Please remember that when you use a link to go from our Website to another web site, our Privacy Policy is no longer in effect. Your browsing and interaction on any other web site, including web sites, which have a link on our Website, is subject to that Web site’s own rules and policies. Please read over those rules and policies before proceeding.

Your Consent
By using our Web site you consent to our collection and use of your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy. We reserve the right to amend this privacy policy at any time with or without notice.

Our Commitment To Data Security:

Please note that your information will be stored and processed on our computers in the United States. The laws on holding personal data in the United States may be less stringent than the laws of your Country of residence or citizenship. To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online.

Choice/Opt-In/Opt-Out
This site allows visitors to unsubscribe so that they will not receive future messages. After unsubscribing we will discontinue sending the particular messages as soon as technically feasible.

Surveys & Contests

From time-to-time our site requests information from users via surveys or contests. Participation in these surveys or contests is completely voluntary and the user therefore has a choice whether or not to disclose this information. Information requested may include contact information (such as name and shipping address), and demographic information (such as zip code, age level). Contact information will be used to notify the winners and award prizes. Survey information will be used for purposes of monitoring or improving the use and satisfaction of this site.

A Special Note About Children

Children are not eligible to use our services unsupervised and we ask that children (under the age of 14) do not submit any personal information to us. If you are a minor, you can use this service only in conjunction with permission and guidance from your parents or guardians.

Acquisition or Changes in Ownership

In the event that the web site (or a substantial portion of its assets) is acquired, your information would be considered part of those assets, and may be part of those assets that are transferred.

Policy Modifications
We may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. If/when changes are made to this privacy policy, we will email users who have given us permission to do so. We will post any changes here, so be sure to check back periodically. However, please be assured that if the Privacy Policy changes in the future, we will not use the personal information you have submitted to us under this Privacy Policy in a manner that is materially inconsistent with this Privacy Policy, without your prior consent.
