  1. How does Site Protect Customers Personal Information?

The process utilizes secure socket layer technology (SSL) to transmit the information and we do not store the credit card information on our servers.

 

·          Access to your Account is restricted by your password.

 

·          We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your PII, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

 

·          Third parties may unlawfully attempt to intercept or access transmissions or private communications and other Customers may abuse or misuse your personal information that they collect from the Sites. Although we work very hard to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will always remain private.

Individuals Under the Age of 13: Pursuant to the provisions of the 1998 Federal Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”), our policy is to refuse individuals under the age of 13 to register an Account or provide any Submissions to the Sites. We therefore do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of 13.

We use "cookies" (small pieces of data we store for an extended period of time on your computer, mobile phone, or other device) to make the Sites easier to use, to improve our advertising, and to protect both you and the Sites. We also use cookies to record session information, customize content, and alert Customers to new items of interest. We may store your user or login ID to recognize you every time you return to the Sites.

·          We may also use third-party advertising technology to serve ads when you visit the Sites and websites upon which we advertise. This technology uses information about your visits, (not including your name, address, or other personal information), to serve our ads to you.

·          In the course of serving our advertisements to you, a unique third-party cookie may be placed or recognized on your browser or mobile device.

7.       How Long Do We Keep Your Information? Except as otherwise provided below, a Customer’s PII is maintained only as long as he/she maintains an Account with the Sites or as needed to provide the Services, whichever is longer.
