We
never
sell or furnish information to third parties unless instructed
to do so by the person who gave the information. We have created
this privacy statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment
to privacy. The following discloses our information gathering
and dissemination practices for this web site. If you have
any questions about the privacy and security at our website,
You

Information Collection and Use
We are the sole owner of the information collected on
this site. We will not sell, share, or rent this information
to others. We collect information from our users at several
different points on our website.
Order
We request information from the user on our forms. Here
a user must provide contact information (like name and address)
some forms may require financial and personal information.
This information is used for the stated purposes and to fill
customers request. If we have trouble processing a customers
request, this contact information is used to get in touch
with the user.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on the users hard drive
containing information about the user. Usage of a cookie is
in no way linked to any personally identifiable information
while on our site. Once the user closes their browser, the
cookie simply terminates. For instance, by setting a cookie
on our site, the user would not have to log in a password
more than once, thereby saving time while on our site. If
a user rejects the cookie, they may still use our site. The
only drawback to this is that the user will be limited in
some areas of our site
Log Files
We use IP addresses to analyze trends, administer the
site, track users movement, and gather broad demographic information
for aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally
identifiable information.
Sharing
Any information that is shared with other companies to
complete the customers request is not retain, share, stored
or used for any secondary purposes by these companies.
Links
Our web site may contain links to other sites. Please
be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy practices
of other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when they
leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each
and every web site that collects personally identifiable information.
This privacy statement applies solely to information collected
by this web site.
Newsletter
If a user wishes to subscribe to our newsletter, we ask
for contact information such as name and e-mail address.
Security
All data is protected using the most advanced methods
available. We take every precaution to protect our users information.
When users submit sensitive information via the website, your
information is protected both online and off-line.
When a form asks users to enter sensitive information, that
information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption
software in the industry - SSL. While on a secure page, the
lock icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator
and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed
to unlocked, or open, when you are just browsing.
While we use SSL encryption to protect sensitive information
online, we also do everything in our power to protect user-information
off-line. All of our users information, not just the sensitive
information mentioned above, is restricted in our offices.
Only employees who need the information to perform a specific
job are granted access to personally identifiable information.
Our employees must use password-protected screen-savers when
they leave their desk. When they return, they must reenter
their password to regain access to your information. Furthermore,
ALL employees are kept up-to-date on our security and privacy
practices. Every quarter, as well as any time new policies
are added, our employees are notified and/or reminded about
the importance we place on privacy, and what they can do to
ensure our customers information is protected. Finally, the
servers that we store personally identifiable information
on are kept in a secure environment.
If you have any questions about the security at our website,
You
can send email to us by visiting our Contact Page
Special Offers
We send all new customers a welcoming e-mail. Established
customers will occasionally receive information on products,
services, special deals, and a newsletter. Out of respect
for the privacy of our users we present the option to not
receive these types of communications. Please see our choice
and opt-out below.
Correction/Updating Personal Information
If a users personally identifiable information changes
(such as your zip code), or if a user no longer desires our
service, we will endeavor to provide a way to correct, update
or remove that users personal data provided to us.
You
can send email to us by visiting our Contact Page
Choice/Opt-out
Our customers may opt-out of having their information
used for purposes not directly related to purchasing a product
from our site. For example, if a user buys a product from
us, but doesn't want any future promotional materials, they
can keep their e-mail address off of our lists
You
can visit our Mail List Page to un-subscribe
Notification of Changes
If we change our privacy policy, we will post those
changes so our users are always aware of what information
we collect, how we use it, and under circumstances, if any,
we disclose it. If at any point we decide to use personally
identifiable information in a manner different from that
stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users
by way of an e-mail. Users will have a choice as to whether
or not we use their information in this different manner.
We will use information in accordance with the privacy policy
under which the information was collected.
