Privacy Policy
We know that you
care how your information is used, and we appreciate your trust
that we will use it carefully and sensibly. This notice
describes our privacy policy. By visiting us, you are
accepting the privacy policy described below.
1. What
Personal Information Do We Collect?
-
Information You Provide. We receive and store
information you enter. For example, when you search for or
buy a product or service, or when you supply information
such as your address, phone number or credit card. You can
choose not to provide certain information, but then you
might not be able to take advantage of some of our
features. We use the information that you provide for such
purposes as responding to your requests, customizing future
shopping for you, improving our website, and communicating
with you. In addition, if you choose, we may share your
information with other companies who provide goods or
services that you are interested in. Please see the
“opt-in/opt-out” selection in Section 4 of this policy.
-
Cookies. Like many websites, we use "cookies". Cookies
are small programs that we transfer to your hard drive that
allow us to recognize you and to provide you with a
customized shopping experience. If you do not want us to
use cookies, you can easily disable them by going to the
toolbar of your web browser, and clicking on the “help”
button. Follow the instructions that will prevent the
browser from accepting cookies, or set the browser to inform
you when you receive a new cookie. In addition, you may
visit this and other websites anonymously through the use of
utilities provided by other private companies.
- Other
Information: Every computer has an IP (Internet
Protocol) address. IP addresses of computers used to visit
this site are noted. In addition, we automatically collect
other information such as email addresses, browser types,
operating systems, and the URL addresses of sites clicked to
and from this site.
-
Information from Other Sources. We might receive
information about you from other sources and add it to our
account information. This may include updated delivery and
address information from our shippers or other sources so
that we can correct our records and deliver your next
purchase or communication more easily.
2. How Do We
Use Your Information?
-
Customized Shopping. We use your information to better
serve you by providing a customized shopping experience. As
noted above, you may “opt-out” of this customization, or
even visit and shop anonymously.
- Agents.
We employ other companies and individuals to perform
functions on our behalf. Examples include delivering
packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, and processing
credit card payments. They have access to personal
information needed to perform their functions, but may not
use it for other purposes.
- Special
Offers. We may send you special offers from time to
time, unless you choose to “opt-out” of receiving such
offers. In addition, we may also send you special offers
from other companies. Again, you may “opt-out”. If we send
you offers from other businesses, we do not share your
personal information with them. The offers come directly
through us. Please see the “opt-in/opt-out” selection at
the end of this policy.
-
Business Transfers. As we continue to develop our
business, we might sell or buy stores or assets. In such
transactions, customer information generally is one of the
transferred business assets. Also, in the unlikely event
that we are acquired, customer information will be one of
the transferred assets.
- Law
Enforcement. If we receive a lawful court order to
release account or other personal information then we will
comply with the law. We will also release information when
necessary to protect the life, safety or property of others.
This includes exchanging information with other companies
and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk
reduction.
3. How Do We
Protect the Security of Your Information?
- We work to
protect the security of your information during transmission
by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts
information you input.
- We use
encryption to protect your information contained in our
customer list.
- We use a
firewall to protect against unlawful intrusion.
- We limit
access to your information on a “need to know” basis.
- We reveal
only the last five digits of your credit card numbers when
confirming an order. Of course, we transmit the entire
credit card number to the appropriate credit card company
during order processing.
- It is
important for you to protect against unauthorized access to
your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when
finished using a shared computer.
- No system
can guarantee absolute security, just as the finest lock can
not guarantee physical security. However, we take every
reasonable precaution to assure that your data is secure.
4. Your
Choice: Opt-in or Opt-out.
It is your choice whether to receive
emails or special offers from us or others. If you choose not to
receive any special offers please visit our contact us page and
send an email in regards to any offers you no longer wish to
receive.
5. Children
We do not sell
products or services to children. If you are under 18, you may
use this site only with involvement of a parent or guardian.
6. Other
Websites
Various Web
sites may be linked to from this site. If you link to another
site, your privacy depends on the policy of that site. We
strongly urge you to check their privacy policy. Not all sites
guarantee that they will not share your personally identifiable
information with others.
