Registration In order to use certain sections of the website,
a user must first complete the registration form. During
registration, users are required to give their contact information
(such as name and email address). This information is used to
contact the user about the services on our site for which they have
expressed interest. It is optional for the user to provide certain
amount of information, but encouraged so we can provide a more
personalized experience on our site.
Order We request information from the user on our order form.
Here a user must provide contact information (like name and shipping
address) and other information. This information is used for billing
purposes and to process customers orders. If we have trouble
processing an order, 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, most of the cookies
simply terminate. 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. For example, the user will not be able to
participate in any of our polls, contests or shopping experiences
that take place. Cookies can also enable us to track and target the
interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site. Some
of our business partners use cookies on our site (for example,
advertisers). However, we have no access to or control over these
cookies.
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 in no case linked to
personally identifiable information.
Sharing We will share aggregated demographic information with
our partners and advertisers. This is not linked to any personal
information that can identify any individual person. We use an
outside vendor for orders that are placed through the site. These
companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable
information for any secondary purposes. We partner with another
party to provide specific services. When the user signs up for these
services, we will share names, or other contact information that is
necessary for the third party to provide these services. These
parties are not allowed to use personally identifiable information
except for the purpose of providing these services.
