PRIVACY INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
We understand the importance of your privacy and respect the
confidential nature of your information. For that reason, we
have made every effort to ensure that your use of our site
and shopping service is secure and private. Any personally
identifiable information that you share with use will be kept
strictly confidential between you, us, and the necessary
registrars for domain registration. The following material will
help you understand what kind of information we collect from
you, how it is used, how it is protected, and what choices you
have with regard to your personal information. Please check this
Privacy Policy often, as it may be updated without notice.
INFORMATION COLLECTED
The kind of information we collect about you depends greatly on
how you choose to use our site. You may choose to browse our
site, reviewing the available products, without submitting any
personal information at all. However, in order to take advantage
of our online ordering services, you will need to fill out our
membership registration, which asks for certain
personally-identifiable information. In particular, we will ask
for your name, home and delivery addresses, and e-mail address,
and your phone number. All this information makes up your
"Personal Profile," which will be associated with a
username and password you choose. If you order any products from
us, we also keep track of your order information to ensure that
you receive the items you request. We also provide a link to
your site on our clients page. If you do not want to be
included, please notify us.
We do NOT
ask for your credit card, bank account or other financial
information over the Internet except on the secure sites
where payments are processed such as
Authorize.net, PayPal and PayByCheck, or provided by mail, fax
or telephone.. In addition to the information you choose to
share with us, our system is set up to gather certain technical
data to help us understand better how our site is being used and
how we can improve it. This automatically gathered information
is not personally identifying; it includes your computer’s IP
or "Internet Protocol" address, statistics about how
visitors navigate through our site, and information provided
through the use of cookies (which are described in more detail
below).
USE OF INFORMATION
We will not use your information for purposes other than
stated above unless you give us your permission or we are
legally compelled to do so, such as by a subpoena or court
order. Cookies: Cookies are small files that we send to and
store on your computer so that we may recognize it as a unique
machine the next time you visit our site. Our cookies are used
to keep track of your information for your own convenience.
Cookies also help us understand the size of our audience and
their traffic patterns within our site. You will not receive
unsolicited e-mail from any third parties as a result of your
purchases on this site. Of course, we cannot prevent mailings
from third parties who might gather your e-mail address on web
sites outside of our control. As we strive to offer you improved
service, we may in the future use your e-mail address to
communicate with you about your account or to send you offers
tailored to your needs and interests. You will be given the
opportunity to opt out of these mailings. We may also use some
registration information, such as your zip code, to help us
analyze our customer demographics. All uniquely identifying
information (like your name or e-mail address) will be separated
from such data before it is used in this way. We will never
disclose the specifics of your order to any other person or
company in a way that could identify you personally. We may,
however, use information about your product order—stripped of
any reference to you personally—to help us understand our
customer’s preferences in general.
INFORMATION SECURITY
In order to maintain the integrity and security of your personal
information (including your purchase choices), we will only ask
for or transmit this information over secure Internet
connections, using SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption—the
recognized standard for online security. The database for
storing your personal information is protected by a second
firewall, further isolating it from outside security threats. Of
course, we appreciate your help in safeguarding the integrity of
your own privacy. We encourage you to let us know immediately if
you suspect that the information you share with us is being used
in any way contrary to this Privacy Policy.
YOUR OPTIONS
Reading this Privacy Policy should help you understand how any
information you share with us might be used. If you feel
concerned about any of these uses, you might elect not to
participate in some of the services that we offer. We will never
collect personally identifying information about you without
your knowledge, so the decision whether or not to share this
information is completely up to you. If you feel concerned about
the cookies that are sent between our computers and yours, you
may either choose to reject them automatically, or have your
computer prompt you before accepting them. This is done by
selecting the appropriate cookies setting on your web browser,
usually found in "Internet Options" or
"Preferences." Please note, however, that some of our
service’s features depend on the use of cookies. Therefore,
you will be unable to take advantage of those features if you
choose not to accept cookies.
SCOPE OF THIS PRIVACY POLICY
Some of our pages contain links to sites outside our control.
Please be aware that these sites may collect information about
you, and that they operate according to their own privacy
practices. If you are concerned about how your personal
information might be used or protected by a third party, we
encourage you to become familiar with that company’s privacy
policy before using the service. And remember that once you’re
outside of our site, any information you submit is outside of
our control.
