This privacy policy has been created to better serve those concerned with how their “Personally identifiable information” (PII) is being used online. PII, as used in US privacy law and information security, is information that can be used on its own or with other information to identify, contact, or locate a single person or to identify an individual in context. Please read our privacy policy carefully to get a clear understanding of how we collect, use, protect or otherwise handle your Personally Identifiable Information in accordance with our website.

What personal information do we collect from visitors?

When ordering or registering on our site, as appropriate, you may be asked to enter your name, email address or other details to help you with your experience.

How do we protect visitor information?

We use vulnerability scanning and scanning to PCI standards. We also scan for malware regularly. We do not currently use an SSL certificate, but we plan to have one in place soon.

Do we use “cookies?”

Yes. Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider transfers to your computer’s hard drive through your Web browser (if you allow), enabling the site’s or service provider’s systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information. For instance, cookies help us remember and process the items in our shopping cart.

They are also used to help us understand your preferences based on previous or current site activity, which enables us to provide you with improved services. We also use cookies to help us compile aggregate data about site traffic and interaction to offer better site experiences and tools in the future.

We use cookies to:

• Keep track of advertisements.
• Compile aggregate data about site traffic and interactions to offer better site experiences and tools in the future. We may also use trusted third-party services that track this information on our behalf.

You can have your computer warn you each time a cookie is sent, or you can turn off all cookies. You do this through your browser (like Internet Explorer) settings. Each browser is different, so look at your browser’s Help menu to learn how to modify your cookies.

If you disable cookies, some features will be disabled. Ensuring a seamless user experience is our top priority. However, if you decline certain site functionality, it may impact the efficiency of your experience and limit access to some of our services.

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personally identifiable information (PII) to outside parties.

Third-party links

Google

Google’s Advertising Principles can sum up Google’s advertising requirements. They are put in place to provide a positive experience for users. https://support.google.com/adwordspolicy/answer/1316548?hl=en

We may use Google AdSense Advertising on our website. As a third-party vendor, Google uses cookies to serve ads on our site. Google’s use of the DART cookie enables it to serve ads to our users based on previous visits to our site and other sites on the Internet. Users may opt out of using the DART cookie by visiting the Google Ad and Content Network privacy policy.

• We use Google AdSense
• We have implemented remarketing with Google AdSense

We, along with third-party vendors, such as Google, use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookies) and third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) or other third-party identifiers together to compile data regarding user interactions with ad impressions and other ad service functions as they relate to our website.

Opting out

Users can set preferences for how Google advertises to you using the Google Ad Settings page. Alternatively, you can opt-out by visiting the Network Advertising initiative opt out page or permanently using the Google Analytics Opt Out Browser add-on.

California Online Privacy Protection Act

CalOPPA is the first state law in the nation to require commercial websites and online services to post a privacy policy. The law’s reach stretches well beyond California to require a person or company in the United States (and conceivably the world) that operates websites collecting personally identifiable information from California consumers to post a conspicuous privacy policy on its website stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals with whom it is being shared, and to comply with this policy. Learn more about CalOPPA.

According to CalOPPA, we agree to the following:

• Anonymous – Users can visit our site anonymously.
• Policy link – We have added a link to our Privacy Policy on our home page and every page on this website.
• Search ease – Our Privacy Policy link includes the word “Privacy” and can easily be found, as required by CalOPPA.

Users will be notified of any privacy policy changes:

• On our Privacy Policy Page
• Users can change their personal information by emailing us.

How does our site handle “Do Not Track” signals?

We do not track, place cookies, or use advertising when a Do Not Track (DNT) browser mechanism exists.

Does our site allow third-party behavioral tracking?

It’s also important to note that we do not allow third-party behavioral tracking

COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)

When collecting personal information from children under 13, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control. The Federal Trade Commission, the nation’s consumer protection agency, enforces the COPPA Rule, which spells out what operators of websites and online services must do to protect children’s privacy and safety online.

We do not specifically market to children under 13.

Fair Information Practices

The Fair Information Practices Principles form the backbone of privacy law in the United States. The concepts they include have played a significant role in developing data protection laws around the globe. Understanding the Fair Information Practice Principles and how they should be implemented is critical to complying with the various privacy laws that protect personal information.

To be in line with Fair Information Practices, we will take the following responsive action should a data breach occur:

• We will notify the users via email within seven (7) business days
• We will notify the users via in-site notification within one (1) business day.

We also agree to the Individual Redress Principle, which requires that individuals have a right to pursue legally enforceable rights against data collectors and processors who fail to adhere to the law. This principle requires that individuals have enforceable rights against data users and have recourse to courts or government agencies to investigate and prosecute non-compliance by data processors.

CAN SPAM Act

The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations.

We will collect your email address to subscribe to our newsletter.
To be in accordance with CANSPAM, we agree to the following: We never sell, rent, or use your email address for any other purpose but for our own needs.

If at any time you would like to unsubscribe from receiving future emails, you can contact us at the address listed below, and we will promptly remove you from ALL correspondence.
