Security :: PRIVACY
Your privacy is very important to us. We want to make your experience on our webstore as enjoyable as possible and want you to use the services and products we offer with complete confidence. We created this Privacy Policy to demonstrate our commitment to privacy and security. This Privacy Policy describes how our company collects information from all the people who use our webstore (the Services). Those who visit our webstore and may access some our Services without having accounts with us (Visitors) as well as those who purchase Products (Members). It also sets out what we do with the information we collect and the choices Visitors and Members have concerning the collection and use of this information. We ask that you read this Privacy Policy carefully. Personal Information Our Company Collects And How It Is Used Introduction Our company collects information in different ways from Visitors and Members who access the various parts of our Services on this web sites. We use this information mainly to provide a personalized experience as you use our Products and Services and generally do not share this information with third parties. However, we may disclose personal information collected, if we have received your prior permission, or in very special circumstances as when we believe disclosure is required by law and in the special cases described below. Upon Registration Members may be asked to provide certain personal information when they sign up for our Products and Services including name, address, telephone number, billing information, (such as credit card number), and the type of personal computer being used to access the Services. Personal information collected from Members during the registration process is used to manage each Member’s account (such as for billing purposes.) This information is not shared with third parties, except as specifically stated or in special circumstances. However in instances where our company and a partner jointly promote our Services, we may provide the partner some personal information like the name, address and user name of the persons who subscribed to the Services as a result of the joint promotion solely for the purpose of allowing us and the partner to asses the results of the promotion. In this case, personal information may not be used by the partner for any other purpose. We may also generate general non-identifying profiles from personal information our Members provide during registration, (like total number, but not the names of Members). As explained below, we would use this information to sell advertisements which may appear in the Services. With Partners Some Products and Services may be offered to Visitors and Members in conjunction with an affiliate, independent contract seller or non-affiliated partner. To provide Visitors and Members with some of these Products and Services, the partner may need to collect and maintain personal information. In such cases, you will be notified before any of your data is collected or transferred, giving you the choice of consent and allowing you to decide whether to use that particular feature or service. Shopping If you order Products or Services from our company we will use the personal information you provide only to process the order. We do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete the order. Advertisements Our company may display online advertisements. In those cases we share general non-identifying profile information about our Visitors and Members collected during the registration process as well as through online surveys and promotions with these advertisers. In some cases, we use this general non-identifying profile information to deliver specific advertisements and for joint ventures. As an example, an advertiser or joint venture company tells us the audience they want to reach and provides us an advertisement tailored to the audience. Based upon the general non-identifying profile information we have collected, we may then display or send the information to the intended people. Our company does not share personal information of Visitors and Members with these advertisers or joint venture partners. Responses to Email Inquiries When Visitors or Members send email inquiries to our company, the return email address is used to answer the email inquiry we receive. Our company does not use the return email address we receive for any other purpose and does not share the return email address with anyone else. Special Cases It is our company’s policy not to use or share the personal information we collect about Visitors and Members in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you the prior opportunity to opt out and prohibit such unrelated disclosures. However we may disclose information about Visitors or Members, or information concerning your use of the Services and Products or Websites accessible through the use of our Services or Products for any reason, if in our sole discretion we feel it is reasonable to do so (as permitted by law were applicable) such as to credit agencies, collection agencies, law enforcement, to protect the interests of our Company and Members, or as required by law. “Cookies” A “cookie” is a small data file that can be placed on your hard drive when you visit certain web sites. How We Use Cookies Our company may use “cookies” to collect, store and track data for statistical purposes to improve the products and services we provide and to manage our networks. If you are a Visitor or Member we may use cookies to save your settings and provide customized and personal service. These cookies do not allow any third parties to access any of your customer information. Advertisers and Partners may also use cookies. We have no control over their actions and we specifically disclaim any responsibility for information they may collect. Our Company’s Commitment To Data Security Services and Websites we sponsor have security measures in place to protect the loss, misuse and alteration of data under our control. While we take all reasonably necessary steps to protect the integrity and security of our data and networks, we cannot guarantee our security measures will prevent “third party” hackers from illegally accessing our data. Revisions Our Company reserves the right to revise, amend or modify this policy our Terms of Service Agreement and our other policies and agreements at any time and in any manner, by updating this posting.
