How do we protect visitor information?
We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal information. Your personal information is contained behind secured networks and is only accessible by a limited number of persons who have special access rights to such systems, and are required to keep the information confidential. When you place orders or access your personal information, we offer the use of a secure server. All sensitive/credit information you supply is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and then encrypted into our databases to be only accessed as stated above. We will take commercially reasonable precautions to protect the information from loss, misuse and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration and destruction. We follow industry standards on information security management to safeguard sensitive information.

We aim to report any loss or breach of data within 72 hours of first becoming aware of the breach.

It is our policy to never send private information, such as your credit card number, via e-mail, IM, chat or other unsecured means. In fact, this is a practice we recommend you adopt in all of your Internet activities.

Do we use "cookies"?
Yes. Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser (if you allow) that enables the site's or service provider's systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information. For instance, we use cookies to help us remember and process the items in your shopping cart. They are also used to help us understand your preferences based on previous or current site activity, which enables us to provide you with improved services. We also use cookies to help us compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future. Cookies are generally used by websites to improve the browsing experience of a user. They typically enable websites to remember preferences and understand how people navigate or use a website, and can be used to provide a user with more relevant marketing and advertising.

We use cookies to provide a better experience for our users by allowing us to analyze how the Services are being accessed and used. For example, cookies enable us to recognize your device and make our site more responsive to your needs by delivering a better and more personalized experience to you. In addition, cookies are used by us to help track your clicks as you go through the pages within our website, which allows us to track performance and improve our Site and Services. We also use cookies to help us verify your Account and device for authentication purposes and to determine when you are logged in. This enables you to avoid re-entering information upon every new visit to our Site and to help prevent fraudulent use of credentials. Similarly, we use cookies to enhance our Services for our customers. For example, we use cookies in connection with the operation of the shopping cart of our Site to authenticate our customers, provide customers with a personalized experience by remembering their preferences and to help keep track of support requests.

We may contract with third-party service providers to assist us in better understanding our site visitors. These service providers are not permitted to use the information collected on our behalf except to help us conduct and improve our business. Third parties that have content embedded on our Site such as a social feature may set cookies on a user’s browser and/or obtain information about the fact that a web browser visited a specific website from a certain IP address. Third parties cannot collect any other personally identifiable information from our website unless you provide it to them directly. Any third party cookie usage is governed by the policy of the third party placing the cookie.

You can choose to have your computer warn you each time a cookie is being sent, or you can choose to turn off all cookies. You do this through your browser (like Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer) settings. Each browser is a little different, so look at your browser Help menu to learn the correct way to modify your cookies. If you turn cookies off, you won't have access to many features that make your site experience more efficient and some of our services will not function properly. However, you can still place orders over the telephone by contacting customer service.

There is no industry standard or understanding about how to respond to “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) signals. Therefore, unless otherwise required by law, we do not alter our data collection and usage practices when We detect DNT signals from your browser.

Do we disclose the information we collect to outside parties?
We do not sell, rent, trade, or otherwise transfer to outside parties your personally identifiable information unless we provide you with advance notice, except as described above and below. We will not disclose any such PII, except:
  • As necessary to provide the Service to you;
  • In the aggregate with other information in such a way so that your identity can not reasonably be determined (for example, statistical compilations);
  • As required by law, or based on our good faith belief that it is necessary to conform or comply with the law;
  • To outside auditors who have agreed to keep the information confidential;
  • To a successor organization in the event of a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, or other sale or disposition of all or a portion of our assets;
