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. 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 use a firewall
to protect against unlawful intrusion.
• We limit access
to your information on a "need to know" basis.
• 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. The following section provides you with this choice. Please note the default settings.
Please send me email or other mail informing me
of special offers of your products or services.
• Please do not send me email or other mail
informing me of special offers of your products
or services.
• Please send me email or other mail informing
me of special offers of related products or services
from other companies.
• Please do not send me email or other mail
informing me of special offers of related products
or services from other companies.
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. You may also wish to consult
privacy guidelines such as those recommended by
the Online Privacy Alliance (www.privacyalliance.org).
7. Modification
We reserve the right to modify this policy in the future. If we do so, notice will be posted on our home page.
