Privacy Policy
Our Privacy Policy is designed to assist you in
understanding how we collect and use the personal information you
provide to us and to assist you in making informed decisions when
using our site and our products and services.
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
Registration Information
You will provide us information about yourself,
your firm or company, and your practices when you register to be a
member of our website, register for certain services, or register
for email newsletters and alerts. You may also provide additional
comments on how you see this website servicing your needs
and interests.
Email Information
If you choose to correspond with us through email,
we may retain the content of your email messages together with your
email address and our responses.
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.
We, our advertisers and ad serving companies may also use small
pieces of code called “web beacons” or “clear gifs” to determine
which advertisements and promotions users have seen and how users
responded to them.
How Do We Use the Information That You
Provide to Us?
Broadly speaking, we use personal information for
purposes of administering and expanding 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. You may notify us at any time if
you do not wish to receive these offers by using the contact us form
What Are Cookie?
A cookie is a very small text document, which often
includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a Web site,
that site's computer asks your computer for permission to store
this file in a part of your hard drive specifically designated for
cookies. Each Web site can send its own cookie to your browser if
your browser's preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy)
your browser only permits a Web site to access the cookies it has
already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other
sites.
How Do We Use Information We Collect from
Cookies?
As you shop on our Web site, the site uses its
cookies to differentiate you from other shoppers so your shopping
cart is only available to you. In some cases, we also use cookies
to prevent you from seeing unnecessary advertisements or requiring
you to log in more than is necessary for security. Cookies, in
conjunction with our Web server's log files, allow us to calculate
the aggregate number of people visiting our Web site and which
parts of the site are most popular. This helps us gather feedback
in order to constantly improve our Web site and better serve our
customers. Cookies do not allow us to gather any personal
information about you and we do not generally store any personal
information that you provided to us in your cookies.
Sharing Information with Third
Parties
We may enter into alliances, partnerships or other
business arrangements 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 alliances, partnerships or arrangements, we may
also provide certain information to third parties if we have
determined that the information will be used in a responsible
manner by a responsible third party. For example, some of our
partners operate stores or provide services on our site, while
others power offerings developed by us for your use. We also use
third parties to facilitate our business, including, but not
limited to, sending email and processing credit card payments. In
connection with these offerings and business operations, our
partners and other third parties may have access to your personal
information for use in connection with business activities. As we
develop our business, we may buy or sell assets or business
offerings. Customer, email, and visitor information is generally
one of the transferred business assets in these types of
transactions. We may also transfer such information in the course
of corporate divestitures, mergers, or any dissolution.
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
customer, you will be given the opportunity to notify us of your
desire not to receive these offers by contacting us through
the contact us form.

How Do We Secure Information
Transmissions?

communication. For this reason, we request that you do not send
private information to us by email. Some of the information you may
enter on our Web site may be transmitted securely via Secure
Sockets Layer SSL, 128 bit encryption services, which are enabled
by VeriSign, Inc. Pages utilizing this technology will have URLs
that start with HTTPS instead of HTTP. Please contact us if you have any
questions or concerns.

identifiable information that we collect online and maintain in our

process served on us or Affiliated Parties; (b) protect and defend
our rights and property, the Site, the users of the Site, and/or

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.
