MIKESTAR.com instructs the user in express terms that his or her privacy and the protection of his or data regarding data transmissions via open networks such as the Internet cannot be guaranteed in full under the current state of technology. The user understands and acknowledges that the provider can view, in technical terms, the pages stored on the web server and, perhaps, other user data stored on such server at any time.
