We may update this Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes to this Policy by using any means, including by posting the updated Policy on this page or by sending electronic mail.

The Types of Information We Collect Online

a. Personal Information

Our Site collects personal information such as names, postal addresses, email addresses, telephone numbers, and other information, such as survey responses. If you make a purchase on our Site, we may collect your credit card information (or other applicable payment mechanism information) as well as other information related to your purchase.

b. Non-Personal Information

Like many websites, our Site monitors visitor traffic patterns by logging tracking data, which is collected automatically from each Site visitor. Tracking data may include information such as the IP address of the visitor’s computer, its browser type and operating system, the referring site, which pages of the Site were visited, the order in which they were visited, and which links were clicked.

Our Site also uses “cookies” (i.e., small text files placed on a visitor computer’s hard drive) and other technologies that allow us to recognize your browser when you visit our Site. They help us determine information such as the type of content that a visitor accesses on our Site and the length of time that the visitor spends on any particular area of the Site. You can configure your browser to accept all cookies, reject all cookies or notify you when a cookie is set. (Each browser is different, so check the “Help” menu of your browser to learn how to change your cookie preferences.) You can visit our Site without accepting cookies. However, if your browser is set to accept cookies, you can enjoy the benefits of being a registered user of our Site.

2. How We Use and Disclose Information Collected Online

We generally use the information we collect online for the purposes for which it is provided and to enhance the products and services we offer to you. For example, we use your personal information to complete transactions that you enter into using our Site. We also use your personal information to communicate with you about specific transactions, to make sure that you are satisfied with our products and services, or to find out how we can serve you better. You may, from time to time, receive information from us regarding new products, services, resources or features we think you will find valuable.

We use tracking data and information obtained through cookies and other technologies to help diagnose problems with our servers, to administer our Site, and to improve Site-related services and features. This data also may be used to analyze traffic patterns and Site usage trends. We also may share aggregated statistical data and other non-personally identifiable information with our current and potential business partners.

We work with third parties who provide services that may include, but are not necessarily limited to, website hosting, data processing and analysis, back-up and security services, and processing of credit card transactions. We may share personal information with these service providers for the purpose of providing these services. Although we seek to require these service providers to protect such personal information, and to use it only for the purpose for which it was provided, we cannot be responsible for third parties’ violations of this Policy or of any other rights of visitors or consumers that use our Site.

We will provide personal information to law enforcement and other entities when we determine that such disclosure is required by subpoena, warrant, court order, or other applicable law or process. We may also disclose such information in cooperation with a law enforcement or government request or where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud or infringement of proprietary rights, situations involving threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of our Terms of Use, or otherwise to comply with legal or regulatory obligations.

We may provide personal information and other information collected online to a purchaser or successor entity in the event of a sale of our business or assets.

3. Security

We take measures designed to prevent unauthorized intrusion to the Site and the alteration, acquisition or misuse of personal information. Unfortunately, however, no security system or system of transmitting data over the Internet can be guaranteed to be entirely secure. Thus, while we seek to protect your personal information, we cannot be responsible for loss, corruption, or unauthorized acquisition of personal information furnished to this Site or for any resulting damages.

4. Third Party Websites

Our Site may include links to other Internet websites, including sites that we do not own or operate. Unless otherwise expressly stated, we are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of such websites, including such sites’ use of any information collected when Site visitors click through links to those sites. If you visit such websites, we encourage you to check the privacy practices of the sites.

5. Offline v. Online Practices

This policy applies solely to our collection, use and disclosure of personal information obtained online through our Site, and does not apply to any of our practices conducted offline.
