At times, we will need personal information regarding a customer or a prospect.

If a customer participates in a Company chat room, discussion forum, or posts messages to a Company bulletin board, customer should be aware that the information disclosed and shared will be broadly available to other persons, both inside of and/or outside the Company, who have access to that chat room, forum or bulletin board. Some individual chat rooms, forums or bulletin boards have additional rules and conditions regarding participation. Also, customer’s expressed opinion is his or her own and should not be considered as reflecting the opinion of the Company.
4. Disclosure of the Information.
a) Within Corporate Organization. We may share your personal information within our corporate organization, and may transfer the information to countries in the world where we conduct business. Some countries may provide less legal protection for customer personal information. In such countries we will still handle customer personal information in the manner described herein.
b) Mergers and Acquisitions. Circumstances may arise where for business reasons, we decide to sell, buy, merge or otherwise reorganize our businesses in the United States or some other country. Such a transaction may involve the disclosure of personal identifying information to prospective or actual purchasers, and/or receiving such information from sellers. It is our practice to seek appropriate protection for information in these types of transactions.
c) Agents. We employ or engage other companies and individuals to perform business functions on behalf of Company. These persons are provided with personal identifying information required to perform their functions, but are prohibited by contract from using the information for other purposes. These persons engage in a variety of functions which include, but are not limited to, fulfilling orders, delivering packages, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, processing credit card payments and providing customer services.
d) Affiliated Businesses. We work closely with affiliated businesses operating web site stores, providing services or selling products on each other’s Web sites. These businesses mayidentify themselves to customers. Customer information related to a transaction with an affiliated business is shared with that affiliated business.
e) Marketing Analysis by Third Parties. We reserve the right to disclose to third parties personal information about customers for marketing analysis; however, any information disclosed will be in the form of aggregate data that does not describe or identify an individual customer.
f) Disclosure to Governmental Authorities. Under certain circumstances, personal information may be subject to disclosure pursuant to a judicial or other government subpoena, warrant or order.
5. Use of Computer Tracking Technologies.
a) No Tracking of Personal Information. Company’s Site is not set up to track, collect or distribute personal information not entered by visitors. Through web site access logs we do collect clickstream data and HTTP protocol elements, which generate certain kinds of non-identifying site usage data, such as the number of hits and visits to our sites. This information is used for internal purposes by technical support staff for research and development, user analysis and business decision making, all of which provides better services to the public. The statistics garnered, which contain no personal information and cannot be used to gather such information, may also be provided to third parties.
b) Use of Cookies. The Company, or its third party vendors, collect non-identifiable and personal information through the use of various technologies, including “cookies”. A cookie is an alphanumeric identifier that a Web site can transfer to customer’s hard drive through customer’s browser. The cookie is then stored on customer’s computer as an anonymous tag that identifies the customer’s computer, but not the customer. Cookies may be sent by us or our third party vendors. Customer can set his or her browser to notify customer before a cookie is received, giving an opportunity to decide whether to accept the cookie. Customer may also set his or her browser to turn off cookies; however, some Web sites may not then work properly.
c) Use of Web Beacon Technologies. The Company may also use Web beacon or other technologies to better tailor its Site to provide better customer service. If these technologies are in use, when a visitor accesses these pages of the Site, a non-identifiable notice of that visit is generated which may be processed by us or by our suppliers. Web beacons usually work in conjunction with cookies. If a customer does not want cookie information to be associated with customer’s visits to these pages, customer can set his or her browser to turn off cookies; however, Web beacon and other technologies will still detect visits to these pages, but the notices they generate cannot be associated with other non-identifiable cookie information and are disregarded.
d) Collection of Non-Identifiable Information. We may collect non-identifiable information from user visits to our Site in order to provide better customer service. Examples of such collecting include: traffic analysis, such as tracking of the domains from which users visit, or tracking numbers of visitors; measuring visitor activity on our Site; Web site and system administration; user analysis; and business decision making. Such information is sometimes known as “clickstream data.” The Company or our contractors may use this data to analyze trends and statistics.
e) Collection of Personal Information. We collect personal identifying information from a customer during a transaction. We may extract some personally identifying information about that transaction in a non-identifiable format and combine it with other non-identifiable information, such as clickstream data. This information is used and analyzed only at an aggregate level (not at an individual level) to help us understand trends and patterns. This information is not reviewed at an individual level.
6. Information Security.
a) Commitment to Online Security. We employ physical, electronic and managerial procedures to safeguard the security and integrity of personal information. Billing and payment data is encrypted whenever transmitted or received online. Personal information is accessible only by staff designated to handle online requests or complaints.
b) No Liability for Acts of Third Parties. We will exercise all reasonable efforts to safeguard the confidentiality of customer personal information. However, transmissions protected by industry standard security technology and implemented by human beings cannot be made absolutely secure. Consequently, we shall not be liable for unauthorized disclosure of personal information due to no fault of the Company including, but not limited to, errors in transmission and unauthorized acts of Company staff or third parties.
