How we use cookies
When
you access our website, we, or companies we hire to track how our website is
used, may place small data files called "cookies" on your computer.
We
send a "session cookie" to your computer when you log in to your
account. This type of cookie helps us to recognize you if you visit multiple
pages on our site during the same session, so that we don't need to ask you for
your password on each page. Once you log out or close your browser, this cookie
expires and no longer has any effect.
We
also use longer-lasting cookies to display your e-mail address on our sign-in
form, so that you don't need to retype the e-mail address each time you log in
to your account.
We
encode our cookies so that only we can interpret the information stored in
them. You are free to decline our cookies if your browser permits, but doing so
may interfere with your use of our website.
How we protect and store personal information
Throughout
this policy, we use the term "personal information" to describe
information that can be associated with a specific person and can be used to
identify that person. We do not consider personal information to include
information that has been anonymized so that it does not identify a specific
user.
We
store and process your personal information on our computers in the US, and we
protect it by maintaining physical, electronic and procedural safeguards in
compliance with applicable US federal and state regulations. We use computer
safeguards such as firewalls and data encryption, we enforce physical access
controls to our buildings and files, and we authorize access to personal
information only for those employees who require it to fulfill their job
responsibilities.
How we use the personal information we collect
Our
primary purpose in collecting personal information is to provide you with a
safe, smooth, efficient, and customized experience. We may use your personal
information to:
* provide the services and customer support you request; *
process transactions and send notices about your transactions * resolve
disputes, collect fees, and troubleshoot problems; * prevent potentially
prohibited or illegal activities, and enforce our User Agreement; * customize,
measure, and improve our services and the content and layout of our website; *
send you targeted marketing, service update notices, and promotional offers
based on your communication preferences; * compare information for accuracy and
verify it with third parties.
How we share personal information with other Game users
To
process your payments, we need to share some of your personal information with
the credit card company or other payment system that you use to buy our Game
product.
Regardless,
we will not disclose your credit card number or bank account number to anyone,
except with your express permission or if we are required to do so to comply
with a subpoena or other legal process.
How we share personal information with other parties
We
may share your personal information with:
- Members of our corporate
family to help detect and prevent potentially illegal acts, provide joint
services and for other business purposes. However, these corporate
affiliates will not use this information to market their services to you
unless you have approved it.
- Service providers under
contract who help with parts of our business operations; (fraud
prevention, bill collection, marketing, technology services). Our
contracts dictate that these service providers only use your information
in connection with the services they perform for us and not for their own
benefit.
- Companies that we plan to
merge with or be acquired by. (Should such a combination occur, we will
require that the new combined entity follow this privacy policy with
respect to your personal information. If your personal information could
be used contrary to this policy, you will receive prior notice.)
- Law enforcement, government
officials, or other third parties when
- we are compelled to do
so by a subpoena, court order or similar legal procedure
- we need to do so to
comply with law
- we believe in good
faith that the disclosure of personal information is necessary to prevent
physical harm or financial loss, to report suspected illegal activity, or
to investigate violations of our User Agreement.
- Other third parties with your
consent or direction to do so.
Our
company will not sell or rent any of your personal information to third parties
in the normal course of doing business and only shares your personal
information with third parties as described in this policy.

Security
This site has security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and
alteration of the information under our control.
LiarsPoker.com uses the latest technology to protect your credit card
information. You can place your orders using Netscape's SSL encryption (the
Internet standard for secure transactions).
As reported in a recent Knight-Ridder News Service article (which appeared in
the Philadelphia Inquirer), "In 1997, there were no reports of credit-card
information stolen on the World Wide Web during a transfer of information over
a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) line, the kind of line used by Netscape Navigator
and Microsoft Explorer. There were no slip-ups. None."
Rest assured that our SSL servers are capable of up to 128-bit encryption, the
most secure SSL encryption available today.

Changes to this Privacy
Policy
Updates.
This Privacy Policy will be periodically updated to reflect changes in laws,
regulations, and their interpretation, and, therefore, we reserve the right to
change, modify or amend this Privacy Policy at any time. Any revised Privacy
Policy will only apply prospectively to your personally identifiable
information collected or modified after the effective date of the revised

always be aware of what information is collected, how it is used, and under
what circumstances, if any, MVP Network, Inc. discloses it. Dispute Resolution.
You and MVP Network, Inc. agree that any Dispute between you and MVP Network,
Inc. shall be resolved exclusively and finally by arbitration administered by
the National Arbitration Forum ("NAF"), using interpretations under
Nevada law, and conducted under its rules, except as otherwise provided below.
You and MVP Network, Inc. will agree on another arbitration forum if NAF ceases
operations. The arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator, and
will be limited solely to the Dispute between you and MVP Network, Inc. The
arbitration, or any portion of it, will not be consolidated with any other arbitration
and will not be conducted on a class-wide or class action basis. The
arbitration shall be held at any reasonable location in St. Louis, Missouri. If
you prevail in the arbitration of any Dispute with MVP Network, Inc., MVP
Network, Inc. will reimburse you for any fees you paid to NAF in connection
with the arbitration. Any decision rendered in such arbitration proceedings
will be final and binding on the parties, and judgment may be entered thereon
in any court of competent jurisdiction. Should either party bring a Dispute in
a forum other than NAF, the arbitrator may award the other party its reasonable
costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in staying or
dismissing such other proceedings or in otherwise enforcing compliance with this
dispute resolution provision. You understand that, in the absence of this
provision, you would have had a right to litigate disputes through a court,
including the right to litigate claims on a class-wide or class action basis,
and that you have expressly and knowingly waived those rights and agreed to
resolve any Disputes through binding arbitration in accordance with the
provisions of this paragraph. This arbitration provision shall be governed by
the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Section 1, et seq. For the purposes of
this provision, the term "Dispute" means any dispute, controversy, or
claim arising out of or relating to: (i) this Privacy Policy, its
interpretation, or the breach, termination, applicability or validity thereof;
(ii) the related order for, purchase, delivery, receipt or use of any product
or service from MVP Network, Inc.; or iii) any other dispute arising out of or
relating to the relationship between you and MVP Network, Inc.; the term MVP
Network, Inc. or "LIARSPOKER.COM" means MVP Network, Inc., its
parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, directors, officers, employees,
beneficiaries, agents, assigns, component suppliers (both hardware and
software), and/or any third party who provides products or services purchased
from or distributed by MVP Network, Inc.. Information may be obtained from the
