5. Cookies

Like many websites, we use “cookies.” A cookie is a piece of data stored on a user’s device containing information about the user’s visit to a website. The types of cookies we use include:

  • Analytics cookies: We use these cookies to track information about a user’s visit, including IP address, time and duration of website visit, pages viewed, visit source/referring site, and time zone. We use this information to administer and improve our website.
  • Functional Cookies: We use these cookies to keep track of logon IDs, system preferences, and tracking pages viewed.
  • Advertising Cookies: We use these cookies to help you find products you might be most interested in or to serve targeted advertising and marketing offers to you.
  • Third Party Cookies: We may use third party cookies and other technology to gather information that can be used to market our products to you on third-party websites.
  • Other cookies necessary for the performance and functioning of our website.

You can change the user settings in your browser to prevent us from storing cookies on your device. If you turn off cookies, you may not have access to all of the features of our web site.

While some internet browsers offer a “do not track” or “DNT” option that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked, these features are not yet uniform and there is no common standard adopted by industry groups, technology companies, or regulators. Therefore, we do not currently commit to responding to browsers’ DNT signals with respect to our website.

6. Children

Our websites are not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect Personal Information from children under the age of 16. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with Personal Information without your consent, please contact us by using the information in the “How To Contact Us” section below and we will take steps to delete the Personal Information from our systems.

7. How We Share Information with Third Parties

Our Service Providers: We may contract with companies or persons to provide certain services including credit card processing, marketing, shipping, data analysis and management, promotional services, IT and system administration, data hosting, and research. We call them our Service Providers. We provide our Service Providers with the information needed for them to perform these services. We also ask our Service Providers to confirm that their privacy practices are consistent with our policies and practices, and with any governing laws and regulations.

Our Select Partners: From time to time we might establish a business relationship with other persons or entities whom we believe trustworthy and whom we have asked to confirm that their privacy policies are consistent with ours. These are known as our Select Partners. In such cases we might rent, exchange, share and/or cross-reference information, including contact information about you that will enable such persons or entities to contact you regarding products and services that may be of interest to you.

Third-Party Marketing Partners:  We make our postal mailing address list and email list, for customers in the United States, available to selected third party marketing partners so that they may provide you with information about product or service offerings, events or promotions, which may be of interest to you. You may opt-out of having such information shared for this purpose. Please see Your Rights in Section 10 below.

Compliance and Safety: We may share Personal Information as necessary to enforce our Terms and Conditions, detect and prevent fraud, ensure the safety and security of our customers and other persons, and protect our rights and property and the rights and property of our customers and third parties.

Professional Advisers: In individual instances, we may share Personal Information with professional advisers acting as service providers, data processors, or joint controllers - including lawyers, bankers, auditors, and insurers.

Third Parties Involved in a Corporate Transaction: We may share Personal Information with a third party if we are involved in a merger, reorganization, dissolution or other corporate change, or if some or all of our business, assets or stock are acquired by a third party.

To Governmental Authorities, Courts, and Regulators: We may share Personal Information with government authorities, courts or regulators in accordance with our legal obligations under applicable laws.

8. How We Protect Your Personal Information

We take reasonable technical, contractual, administrative, and physical security steps to protect Personal Information. We use secure socket layer (SSL) encryption across our website and apps. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. As such, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your Personal Information.
