THE INFORMATION WE COLLECT
When you visit our website, we collect two types of information: personal information you actively choose to disclose (“Active Information”) and information not visible to you that arises out of your browsing of our Site (“Passive Information”).
1. Personal Information
Personal Information (“PII”) is information about an identifiable individual.
A. Registration
When you register to become an authorized reseller of our products or services, we will collect PII (which may include, but not limited to, your name, address, email address, and telephone numbers). This PII is securely stored and may be accessed on our website. You are assigned an identification number and select your own password – both are needed to enter the site and to access your Contact Information through the site. Please safeguard your password in a secure location as we are not responsible for breaches into the system when access is willingly provided.
B. Ordering
When you place an order for products or services, we collect PII (e.g., name, contact and billing information, credit card, and other transactional information). We use this information to process and deliver your order, process payment, to communicate the status of your order and potentially to enforce our terms of sale or any other agreement you may have with us.
C. Credit and Debit Card Storage
Credit and debit card information collected at registration or for product orders is used only to process payment for the transactions you enter and, generally, is not retained on our website. However, you may voluntarily elect to securely store multiple credit cards to be used for product orders.
D. Surveys and Promotions
Occasionally, you may voluntarily provide PII to complete surveys and questionnaires or to participate in user polls. We use this information to improve our products, services and advertising, and to ensure that we’re providing accurate disclosures. We may also use your PII to provide you newsletters and other marketing information that coincide with your preferences. You may customize your marketing preferences or let us know if you do not wish to receive any promotional materials, by adjusting your Subscriptions & Email options on the website, or by opt-ing out of email marketing using the ‘unsubscribe’ tool in such messages.
Active Information You Choose to Provide
In order to gain use of the website (become a “user”), we require you to disclose the following information: Name, Address and Phone Number
2. Passive Information
We store and collect various types of information using technologies such as cookies when you visit our website. This information may include such technical information as it pertains to your Internet Protocol address (IP address), your device operating system and browser type, cookies, and an address of a referring website or any other path you take to reach our website all described in greater detail below.
Aggregate Information
This refers to information that does not, by itself, identify you as a specific individual. Such information would include the Uniform Resource Locator (“URL”) of the website that referred you to our website, your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address (a number automatically assigned to your computer whenever you surf the web), your operating system and browser type, and any search terms that you enter on our website. Our web server aggregates this information to monitor the level of activity on our website, evaluate its effectiveness, and improve the content or our website in order to make your visit an easy and enjoyable experience.
We may collect, compile, store, publish, promote, report, or otherwise disclose or use any Aggregate Information, provided that such information does not personally identify you. We do not correlate any PII with the Aggregate Information that we collect on our website. If we do correlate any Aggregate Information to you, it will be protected like any other PII under this Privacy Statement.
What is a Cookie?
Cookies are a feature of web browser software that allows web servers to recognize the computer used to access a site. They are small pieces of data stored by a user’s browser to simplify subsequent interactions with the site. This makes it easier for a user to move from site to site and to complete transactions over the Internet. Cookies should make your online experience easier and more personalized.
Our Site utilizes cookies to collect information about how our Site is used. Passive Information gathered may include the date and time of visits, the site pages viewed, time spent at our Site, and the sites visited just before and just after visiting our Site. If you do not wish to transmit “cookie” information, you may turn off the cookie function in your web browser.
Our Site’s servers also automatically identify your computer by its Internet Protocol address, which is a unique string of numbers that are assigned to your computer by your Internet Service Provider. The IP address may be used to address problems with our server or to gather broad demographic information about our users. We passively collect your IP Address when you visit our website.
HOW WE USE THE INFORMATION COLLECTED
Broadly speaking, persons we employ directly, or as contractors or agents at our direction, use Active Information for purposes of administering our core business functions, such as the fulfillment of orders or services, the furnishing of customer care and support, and subject to your preference settings, supplying information on the availability of other products or services we think might be of interest to our users.
We use Passive Information to gather information about our users and to enhance our Site to make it easier, faster, and more user friendly. Additionally, cookies help us better understand the usage patterns of the people that visit our website, which helps us improve our website and services. Passive Information may result in your viewing of advertising based on your user habits.
We reserve the right to use Active and Passive Information to prevent, detect and investigate fraud, security breaches, or any other potentially prohibited or illegal activity.
We may use any Active Information or Passive Information provided to contact you about various changes to our website, new services, features or products we offer. If at any time you do not wish to receive such information, you may “opt-out” of doing so by adjusting your email settings in the back office of the website.
We may anonymize, aggregate or otherwise strip any personal information or other information we collect of all personally identifying characteristics and may use or share that aggregated, anonymized data with third parties for any purpose we deem appropriate.Information Relating to Hyperlinks
You might be able to access other websites through our website via hyperlinks. These websites may be owned by third parties that we do not control and that we are not responsible for. When you visit a third party website, you are subjecting yourself to their privacy policies and data collection practices. Please read the privacy policies of those websites to ensure you agree with the terms before using such sites.
This Privacy Policy does not cover the information practices of those websites and we do not control and are not responsible for their content or privacy policies. We suggest that you carefully review the privacy policies of each site you visit.
Receiving and Sharing of Information from and with Third Parties
We reserve the right to receive information about you from other third-party sources, that help us update, expand, and analyze our records and identify new customers.
Furthermore, we may share Personal Information necessary to the prevention of fraud, illegal activities, and security breaches. Because of this, it’s possible some of your personal information may be shared with fraud prevention agencies. If false or inaccurate information is provided and fraud is identified, details of this fraud may be passed on to these agencies. Likewise, law enforcement and governmental agencies may access and use certain information pursuant to any law, regulation, or subpoena. This applies to information as it relates to both open and closed accounts.
Additionally, third parties who perform services for us by assisting us with carrying out the purposes we describe under this Privacy Policy, for example, as it relates to security, payment, etc. (such as Internet Service Providers, credit card processors, and merchant banks) may also have access to your information in the performance of such services.
Finally, we may disclose anonymous information about user habits to third party advertisers on our website. Should we buy or sell assets of our company, another company may need to review our company’s assets, which might include your information, to make business decisions as to whether to acquire such assets, and if the transaction proceeds, to complete it and continue the business.
HOW WE SECURE ACTIVE AND PASSIVE INFORMATION
We secure your personal information submitted by you by using physical, organizational, and technological means to help prevent unauthorized access or disclosure, or accidental loss of Active and Passive Information. For example, we use secure socket layer (SSL) encryption to protect the transmission of the information you submit to us when you use our secure online forms.
Personal information may be accessed by persons within our organization, or other entities described in this Privacy Policy, or our third-party service providers, who require such access to carry out the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, or as otherwise permitted or required by applicable law. Personal information we collect is primarily managed from our offices in [Location], however, we may also store personal information in other locations.
Individual postings on this website and other communications to our office via email or standard mail may not be secure unless we advise you that security measures are in place prior to your submission of information. Therefore, if you choose to communicate with us through these means, you are assuming the risk of doing so and we respectfully request that you do not send or post sensitive information through these means.
It is your responsibility to safeguard the password you use to access our site and to promptly advise us if you ever suspect that your password has been compromised. We strongly encourage you to change your password regularly to prevent unauthorized access. Because your identification number and password are specific to you, you acknowledge sole responsibility for any and all use of our website conducted with your identification number and password.
Please note that no data transmission over the Internet or other network can be guaranteed to be 100% secure, and no security measures are 100% effective. As a result, while we strive to protect the personal information we receive, we cannot and do not guarantee the security of any information you transmit on or through the website or otherwise provide to us, and you do so at your own risk.
