PRIVACY POLICY
(Last Revised: 11/23/09)
Thank you for visiting this web
site. We understand the importance that Internet users place on
privacy, and this Privacy Policy describes how we use personal
information that is collected at this web site. Please read this
Privacy Policy before using this site or submitting any personal
information. By using this web site, you accept the privacy
practices contained in this Privacy Policy. These privacy
practices may change from time to time, but any changes will be
posted. You are encouraged to review the Privacy Policy whenever
you visit the web site to make sure you understand how any
personal information you provide will be used.
Information We Collect
In order to serve our customers, we collect personally
identifiable information, like names, addresses, phone numbers,
email addresses, and sometimes credit card information when such
information is voluntarily submitted by our visitors. We may use
your personal information, transfer your personal information,
and/or sell your personal information for any legal purpose,
including, without limitation: (1) to deliver the products and/or
services to you that you have requested; (2) to validate your
compliance with the terms and conditions; (3) for content
improvement and feedback purposes; (4) to reach you, when
necessary, regarding your use of the web site or product(s); and
(5) to bring retail opportunities and promotional offers to you by
email, direct mail, telemarketing, and/or online banner
advertising. When your information is provided to third parties,
these third parties may include providers of direct marketing
services and applications. We or these third parties may
supplement the information we collect online with outside records
to enhance our ability to serve you, to tailor our content to you,
and/or to offer you targeted advertising and other opportunities
to purchase products and services that we believe may be of
interest to you.
We will NEVER share your credit
card information with third parties unless you have given us
explicit permission to do so, such as in order to fulfill a third
party offer that you have accepted from us. By permitting us to
collect this information, you will be able to receive free
information on products and services that may be of interest to
you. You also enable us to personalize your experience with us so
that we can provide you with the highest quality of service. By
submitting your email address on this web site, you agree to
receive email from us and our third party advertisers. We, and our
third party advertisers, may maintain separate email lists for
different purposes. You can cancel your participation in any of
these email lists at any time by clicking the opt-out link or
other unsubscribe option that is included in the respective email.
We only send emails to people who have authorized us to contact
them, either directly, or through a third party. We do not send
unsolicited commercial emails, because we hate spam as much as you
do.
In addition, you agree that by
submitting your email address on this web site and/or registering
to receive the product and/or service offered herein, such act
constitutes a purchase, an inquiry, and/or an application for the
purposes of the Amended Telemarketing Sales Rule (ATSR), 16 CFR
‘310 et seq. and any applicable state and local “do not
call” regulations. We and our third party advertisers retain the
right to contact you via telemarketing in accordance with the ATSR
and the applicable state regulations.
Third Party Actions
We do not control and are not liable for the actions of our
third party marketers or advertisers. We pride ourselves in
working with quality companies, but have no control over the
actions of those third parties. While we are not liable for any of
the actions of those third parties, you should feel free to give
us feedback from time to time on your experiences with any third
parties to whom we work with so that we may enhance our future
service to all customers.
Cookies
We may use cookies to deliver content that is specific to your
interests. Cookies are text files that are used by your
computer’s web browser to store your preferences, and enable us
to enhance your user experience with our web site.
IP Addresses
We may use your IP
address to help prevent fraud, to help diagnose problems with our
server, to gather broad demographic information, and to offer you
products and services.
Third Party Web Sites
This web site and/or the products and/or services offered herein
may direct you to web sites that are owned and/or controlled by
third parties. We have no control over those third parties and are
not responsible for the content or the privacy practices of those
sites or companies.
Commitment to Data
Security
All information collected from you is stored in a technically and
physically secure environment. We use SSL encryption to protect
sensitive information online, and we do everything we can to
protect user information offline. Unfortunately, no transmission
over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a
result, while we take reasonable measures to protect your
information, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of the
information that you transmit to us, and you do so at your own
risk.
