PRIVACY POLICY
Our Commitment to Privacy
We value our customers and respect their privacy. We collect customer
information in an effort to improve your shopping experience and
communicate with you about our products, services and promotions. We do
not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. As
described in this policy, we do, however, share your information, under
certain circumstances, with third parties that provide services on our
behalf, or with whom we have partnered to offer a particular product or
service. This policy describes the personal information we collect
about you, why we collect it, how we use it and when we share it with
third parties. Our policy also describes the choices you can make about
how we collect and use your information. If you have any questions about
our privacy policy, you can always contact us in any of three ways (or
as discussed in the Contact Us portion of this policy):
Information We Collect
We collect information, such as name, e-mail and postal addresses, phone
and credit card numbers from you when you visit our Website, place an
order online or by phone, make an in-store purchase, save your info with
us online, or participate in a promotion or survey. We may maintain a
record of your product interests and the purchases you make online or by
phone, and we may also acquire information about you from marketing
partners, unrelated third parties, or our affiliates.
How We Use Information
When you place an order or make a purchase from us, we use your personal
information to process your order, send you e-mails to confirm your
order or to contact you via phone, mail or e-mail (if we have questions
regarding your order or purchase). We may use an outside credit card
processing company to bill users for goods and services. These
companies do not retain, share, store or use personally identifiable
information for any secondary purposes, and they are not allowed to use
personally identifiable information except to provide the services.
When you place an order, make a purchase, or save your information
online, we may use your e-mail and postal address to send you
information about our products, services, and promotions and to help us
learn more about your shopping preferences. If you participate in a
promotion, we may use your personal information to send you e-mails,
postal mail, or telephone (including text messages) regarding our
products, services and promotions. From time to time, we may use this
information to contact you via e-mail, postal mail, or telephone to
learn more about your shopping preferences. You always have the choice
not to receive marketing information or calls. In addition, we may use
information about you and your product interests and purchases from us
and our affiliates to help us improve our Website design and your online
shopping experiences. We may contact you, subject to the choices you
have made, via e-mail, mail, or telephone, to conduct market research
and learn more about how we can improve our product offerings. To serve
you better, we may combine information you give us and information
about your product interest and purchases with information from third
parties, including demographic information and information that is
publicly available. We may also combine this information with
information from our affiliates. We may use that combined information
to enhance and personalize your shopping experience with us, and to
communicate with you in accordance with this policy.
Security
Protecting your privacy and your information is important to us. We
have taken appropriate measures to prevent the loss, misuse, or
alteration of your information. Our employees who have access to
information collected on our Website are aware of our privacy policy.
Your information is only accessible to those employees who need it in
order to perform their job.
Email Communications
You may elect not to receive emails from us. If you did not opt out of
our email program, we will use your email address to send you emails
which may interest you. Emails will likely contain information
regarding our products or offerings. To unsubscribe from these emails,
click on the Contact Us link and send us an email letting us know who
you are, and that you wish to "unsubscribe" from our mailing lists.
Also, an unsubscribe link will appear at the end of each email we send
you, and when you click on it you will be automatically unsubscribed
from computer mailings.
Information Sharing
Your personal information will only be shared with third parties as
permitted by our privacy policy. We do not rent, sell, or share your
personal information with other people or non-affiliated companies except
to provide products or services you've requested, when we have your
permission, or under the following circumstances: we provide the
information to partners who work on our behalf or under confidentiality
agreements (these companies may use your personal information to help us
communicate with you about products and offers); we respond to
subpoenas, court orders, or legal process, or to establish or exercise
our legal rights or defend against legal claims; we may share
information in order to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding
illegal activities, suspected fraud, situations involving potential
threats to the physical safety of any person, violations of our terms
of use, or as otherwise required by law; we will transfer information
about you if we are acquired by or if we merge with another company.

which will take you to the "contact us" page and other areas of our

reasonable efforts to post a notice on our Website notifying users that
there has been a change, and we will use reasonable efforts to detail
