PRIVACY POLICY
Our Privacy Policy was developed as an extension of our commitment
to combine the highest-quality products and services with the
highest level of integrity in dealing with our clients and partners.
The Policy is designed to assist you in understanding how we collect,
use and safeguard the personal information you provide to us and
to assist you in making informed decisions when using our site
and our products and services. This statement will be continuously
assessed against new technologies, business practices and our
customers' needs.
What Information Do We Collect?
When you visit our Web site you may provide us with two types
of information: personal information you knowingly choose to disclose
that is collected on an individual basis and Web site use information
collected on an aggregate basis as you and others browse our Web
site.
Personal Information You Choose to Provide
Credit Card Information
If you choose to purchase products or services from us or our
partners, you may need to give personal information and authorization
to obtain information from various credit services. For example,
you may need to provide the following information:
·Name
·Mailing address
·Email address
· Credit card number
·Home and/or business phone number
·Other personal information (i.e. mother’s maiden
name)
Email Information
In addition to providing the foregoing information to our partners,
if you choose to correspond further with us through email, we
may retain the content of your email messages together with your
email address and our responses. We provide the same protections
for these electronic communications that we employ in the maintenance
of information received by mail and telephone.
2. Web Site Use Information
Similar to other commercial Web sites, our Web site utilizes
a standard technology called “cookies” (see explanation
below, “What Are Cookies?”) and Web server logs to collect
information about how our Web site is used. Information gathered
through cookies and Web server logs may include the date and time
of visits, the pages viewed, time spent at our Web site, and the
Web sites visited just before and just after our Web site. This
information is collected on an aggregate basis. None of this information
is associated with you as an individual.
How Do We Use the Information That You Provide to Us?
Broadly speaking, we use personal information for purposes of
administering our business activities, providing customer service
and making available other products and services to our customers
and prospective customers. Occasionally, we may also use the information
we collect to notify you about important changes to our Web site,
new services and special offers we think you will find valuable.
The lists used to send you product and service offers are developed
and managed under our traditional corporate standards designed
to safeguard the security and privacy of our customers’ personal
information. As a customer, you will be given the opportunity,
at least once annually, to notify us of your desire not to receive
these offers.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are a feature of Web browser software that allows Web
servers to recognize the computer used to access a Web site. Cookies
are small pieces of data that are stored by a user’s Web
browser on the user’s hard drive. Cookies can remember what
information a user accesses on one Web page to simplify subsequent
interactions with that Web site by the same user or to use the
information to streamline the user’s transactions on related
Web pages. This makes it easier for a user to move from Web page
to Web page and to complete commercial transactions over the Internet.
Cookies should make your online experience easier and more personalized.
How Do We Use Information We Collect from Cookies?
We use Web site browser software tools such as cookies and Web
server logs to gather information about our Web site users’
browsing activities, in order to constantly improve our Web site
and better serve our customers. This information assists us to
design and arrange our Web pages in the most user-friendly manner
and to continually improve our Web site to better meet the needs
of our customers and prospective customers.
Cookies help us collect important business and technical statistics.
The information in the cookies lets us trace the paths followed
by users to our Web site as they move from one page to another.
Web server logs allow us to count how many people visit our Web
site and evaluate our Web site’s visitor capacity. We do
not use these technologies to capture your individual email address
or any personally identifying information about you although they
do permit us to send focused online banner advertisements or other
such responses to you.
Sharing Information with Affiliates
From time to time you may notice offers from outside companies
advertised on our Web site. We take measures to select product
or service providers that are responsible and afford privacy protections
to their customers. However, we cannot make any representations
about the practices and policies of these companies.
Sharing Information with Strategic Partners
We may enter into strategic marketing alliances or partnerships
with third parties who may be given access to personal information
including your name, address, telephone number and email for the
purpose of providing you information regarding products and services
that we think will be of interest to you. In connection with strategic
marketing alliances or partnerships, we will retain all ownership
rights to the information, and we will not share information regarding
your social security number or other personal financial data.
However, email that you may send to us may not be secure unless
we advise you that security measures will be in place prior to
your transmitting the information. For that reason, we ask that
you do not send confidential information such as Social Security
or account numbers to us through an unsecured email.
Notice of New Services and Changes
Occasionally, we may also use the information we collect to notify
you about important changes to our Web site, new services and
special offers we think you will find valuable. As our client,
you will be given the opportunity to notify us of your desire
not to receive these offers by clicking on a response box when
you receive such an offer or by sending us an email request.
Disclose Information to Outside Parties
We may provide aggregate information about our customers, sales,
Web site traffic patterns and related Web site information to
our affiliates or reputable third parties, but this information
will not include personally identifying data, except as otherwise
provided in this Privacy Policy.
Legally Compelled Disclosure of Information
We may disclose information when legally compelled to do so,
in other words, when we, in good faith, believe that the law requires
it or for the protection of our legal rights.
Other Web Sites Linked to Our Web Site
We are not responsible for the practices employed by Web sites
linked to or from our Web site nor the information or content
contained therein. Often links to other Web sites are provided
solely as pointers to information on topics that may be useful
to the users of our Web site.
Please remember that when you use a link to go from our Web site
to another Web site, our Privacy Policy is no longer in effect.
Your browsing and interaction on any other Web site, including
Web sites which have a link on our Web site, is subject to that
Web site’s own rules and policies. Please read over those
rules and policies before proceeding.
Your Consent
By using our Web site you consent to our collection and use of
your personal information as described in this Privacy Policy.
If we change our privacy policies and procedures, we will post
those changes on our Web site to keep you aware of what information
we collect, how we use it and under what circumstances we may
disclose it.
