By using the Site, you consent to the privacy practices described in this Policy, as modified from time to time by us. We reserve the right to change the provisions of this Policy at any time.

Your use of the Site following the posting of such changes or revised statement shall constitute your consent to any changes in our privacy practices.

PERSONAL INFORMATION
As used herein, the term "personal information" means information that specifically identifies an individual (such as a name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, or other account number), and information about that individual's activities, such as information about his or her use of the Site, when directly linked to personally identifiable information. Personal information also includes demographic information such as date of birth, gender, geographic area and preferences when such information is linked to other personal information that identifies you. Personal information does not include "aggregate" information. Aggregate information is data we collect about the use of the Site or about a group or category of products, services or users, from which individual identities or other personal information has been removed. In other words, information about how you use a service may be collected and combined with information about how others use the same service. Aggregate data helps us understand trends and our users' needs so that we can better consider new features or otherwise tailor our Site. This policy in no way restricts or limits our collection and use of aggregate information. There is also information about your computer hardware and software that is automatically collected by the Site. This information can include: your IP address, browser type, domain names, access times and referring Web site addresses. This information is used for the operation of the service, to maintain quality of the service, and to provide general statistics regarding use of the Site. Please keep in mind that if you directly disclose personally identifiable information or personally sensitive data through public message boards, such as consumer reviews, this information may be collected and used by others.
INFORMATION COLLECTION AND USE
When you place an order, all personally identifying information (Name, Email Address, Address, Credit Card Number) is submitted via secured connection, and stored in a controlled, limited access environment. The information that we collect in this manner is required to fill your order. This information is analyzed in aggregate to determine consumer trends and to obtain feedback on the functionality and appeal of our web site. One goal in collecting personal information from you is to provide an efficient, meaningful, and customized experience. In general, we use personal information we collect to process your requests or transactions, to provide you with information, products or services you request, and to facilitate your use of the Site and our administration and operation of the Site. We may also use personal information for our internal marketing such as to inform you about other products, services, events, information, and promotions we think will be of interest.
Personal information provided online may be linked together or merged with other personal information so that we may better understand your needs and inform you about our products or services and those of our partners. In addition, if we receive information from third parties with whom we have business relationships, we may combine this information with the other personal information we maintain about you. In either case, this Policy governs this information.
We do not sell, rent, trade, license or otherwise disclose your specific personal information or financial information to anyone, except that:
• As do most catalog and Internet retailers, we sometimes use others to perform specific functions on our behalf. When we disclose information to these service providers, we disclose information to help them to perform their service. For example, in order to deliver products to you, we must share some information. We partner with third parties (such as the U.S. Postal Service, United Parcel Service, and Federal Express) to ship products, to ensure delivery, and so that we can obtain feedback, improve the quality of our service, and measure and improve the quality of the service of the third party. In the example of shippers, we provide them some personally identifiable information such as your name, shipping address, email, and phone number.
• Similarly, to help you buy products and provide customer service to you, we must provide your credit card number to financial-services corporations such as credit-card processors and issuers. When we submit your credit card number for authorization, we use state-of-the-art data encryption to protect your information.
• We may be required to disclose such information in response to requests from law-enforcement officials conducting investigations; subpoenas; a court order; or if we are otherwise required to disclose such information by law. We also will release personal information where disclosure is necessary to protect our legal rights, enforce our Terms of Use or other agreements, or to protect ourselves or others. For example, we may share information to reduce the risk of fraud or if someone uses or attempts to use our Site for illegal reasons or to commit fraud.
• Information about our users, including personal information, may also be disclosed or transferred as part of, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale of company assets, financing or acquisition or in any other situation where personal information may be transferred as a part of our business assets.
However, we may share aggregate information to third parties without your authorization. We may share personal information with third-party vendors, consultants and service providers ("Service Providers") who assist us in performing functions necessary to operate our business. These functions may include, without limitation, Website hosting. We endeavor to limit the information shared with such Service Providers to that which we believe is necessary or useful to carry out those functions. We are not responsible for any failure on the part of our Service Providers to comply with our privacy practices, nor are we responsible for any additional information you provide directly to these Service Providers or to other third parties, and we encourage you to become familiar with their practices before disclosing information directly to them.
