Ranges Chess Club is committed to protecting your online privacy while providing you with the most useful and enjoyable Web experience possible. While you can use many features of Ranges Chess Club anonymously, you are required to provide personal information to gain access to some of our premium content and services.

Registering for membership on Ranges Chess Club gives you access to all the site’s information and features. The only information required is your name, e-mail address, country, and post code. With your approval, we occasionally will send e-mail to notify you about important changes to the site, new services, and special offers from us. If you would rather not receive these e-mail notifications, you can simply indicate that preference either when you register or at any time you modify your account. In addition to receiving e-mail announcements, you can also sign up for daily and weekly e-mail services that provide Human Resources Consulting Services. If you enter a contest or respond to a promotion, we may ask for your postal address so we can notify contest winners and deliver promotional goodies. When you enter this information, we will save it in your member profile so that you won’t have to enter it again. We occasionally may also send you postal mail to notify you about important changes to the site, new services, and special offers from us and select Ranges Chess Club partners. If you would rather not receive such information via postal mail, you can indicate this when you enter your address or you can modify your account at any time to indicate your preference. Our Free Product Info service lets you sign up to receive e-mail product announcements and other news from third parties, including software publishers, hardware manufacturers, and service providers. You can add or remove product information topics from your personal list at any time on your Free Product Info page. Ranges Chess Club works with Postmaster Direct, the world’s leading e-mail announcement service, to prevent unauthorized use of your e-mail address and make sure you receive information only about the topics you specify.

All personal data you enter on Ranges Chess Club is encrypted with secure server software (SSL) that encodes the information before your Web browser software sends it to us. The SSL software decodes the data only after it reaches our server, meaning hackers can’t snatch any of your personal information while it is in transit. Once the data reaches our site, the same state-of-the-art security software we use to guard all of our company’s essential business data protects your personal data as well. In addition to using the most secure technology available, we work tirelessly to make sure that we use any information you provide us only in ways you have approved. We send you only the e-mail you have approved in your account information or on your e-mail subscription sign-up page. And when you sign up for Free Product Info, Postmaster Direct distributes all the announcement e-mails you request directly without ever releasing your e-mail address to a third party.
