Privacy and Security Policy

Providing information is a thing of trust and we appreciate that you share them with us. Be assured that we will use this information responsibly. This is our privacy policy. By visiting us, you are accepting the privacy policy described below.

1. What Personal Information Do We Collect?

• Information You Provide. When you search for or buy a product or when you supply information such as your address, phone number or credit card we receive and store such information. It is up to you if you will provide the information required but doing so might not allow you to use features of our site. We use the information that you provide for such purposes as responding to your requests, customizing future shopping for you, improving our website, and communicating with you. In addition, if you choose, we may share your information with other companies who provide goods or services that you are interested in. Please see the "opt-in/opt-out" selection in Section 4 of this policy.


• Cookies. Like many websites, we use "cookies". Cookies are small programs that we transfer to your hard drive that allow us to recognize you and to provide you with a customized shopping experience. If you do not want us to use cookies, you can easily disable them by going to the toolbar of your web browser, and clicking on the “help” button. Follow the instructions that will prevent the browser from accepting cookies, or set the browser to inform you when you receive a new cookie. In addition, you may visit this and other websites anonymously through the use of utilities provided by other private companies.


• Other Information: Every computer has an IP (Internet Protocol) address. IP addresses of computers used to visit this site are noted. In addition, we automatically collect other information such as email addresses, browser types, operating systems, and the URL addresses of sites clicked to and from this site.


• Information from Other Sources. We might receive information about you from other sources and add it to our account information. This may include but not limited to updated delivery and address information from our shippers so that we can correct our records and deliver your next purchase or communication more easily.

2. How Do We Use Your Information?

• Customized Shopping. We use your information to better serve you by providing a customized shopping experience. As noted above, you may “opt-out” of this customization, or even visit and shop anonymously.


• Agents. We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include delivering packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, and processing credit card payments. They have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but are forbidden to use it for other purposes.


• Special Offers. We may send you special offers from time to time, unless you choose to “opt-out” of receiving such offers (See Section 4). In addition, we may also send you special offers from other companies. Again, you may “opt-out”. If we send you offers from other businesses, we do not share your personal information with them. The offers come directly through us. Please see the “opt-in/opt-out” selection at the end of this policy.


• Business Transfers. As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy stores or assets. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets. Also, in the unlikely event that we are acquired, customer information will be one of the transferred assets.


• Law Enforcement. If we receive a lawful court order to release account or other personal information then we will comply with the law. We will also release information when necessary to protect the life, safety or property of others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.

3. How Do We Protect the Security of Your Information?

• We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input.
• We use encryption to protect your information contained in our customer list.
• Access to your submitted information is on a need to know basis.
• We use a firewall to protect against unlawful intrusion.
• Only the last five digits of your credit card number will be revealed to you when confirming orders. Of course, the entire credit card number will be transmitted to the appropriate credit card company during order processing.
• Disclaimer: No system can guarantee absolute security, just as the finest lock cannot guarantee physical security. However, we take every reasonable precaution to assure that your data is secure.

4. Your Choice: Opt-in or Opt-out.
