aggregate non-personally identifiable information about the visitors
to our web site. Personally identifiable information consists
of information that is unique to you, such as credit card numbers,
bank accounts, social security numbers, home address, email address
and the like. This is the type of information that most people
consider private and deem the most important to protect from unauthorized
access. Non-personally identifiable information most often consists
of things such as your search preferences, the types of products
you have bought, how many times you have visited a particular
web site, etc. This type of information is usually associated
with a particular computer or IP address but not with a particular
person. "Cookies" are pieces of information generated
by a Web server and stored in the user's computer, ready for future
access. Each time you access our web site; our server finds the
relevant cookie on your computer. The information contained within
that cookie is then used to customize your experience with our
site. The following is a list of the information we collect: (insert
all information you collect, names, numbers, social security,
email, etc.)
WHY DO
WE COLLECT THIS INFORMATION?
We use this
information in order to serve the needs of our customers. We need
to know who you are in order to verify the credit card information
you have sent us. We collect several pieces of personal information
from you in order to complete this verification process. The non-personal
information that we collect from you is used in order to offer
you better service and to make your experience with our site more
enjoyable. Any information that we may inadvertently collect from
you, that does not serve one of these reasons stated above, is
immediately purged from our system.
HOW IS
YOUR INFORMATION PROTECTED?
We use the
latest in encryption technology, including 128 bit SSL encryption
to ensure that any sensitive information that is sent by you to
us via the Internet is protected from unauthorized interception.
We employ the latest in firewall protection to prevent unauthorized
access into our information storage areas. We maintain a rigorous
hiring process to screen out potential employees with criminal
backgrounds. All employees that we do hire have to sign a confidentiality
agreement that forbids them from disclosing any information to
which the employee has access, to other individuals or entities.
We also have back up servers and power supplies to guard against
power outages and other natural occurrences that could pose a
threat to the integrity of your personal information. Passwords
are required in order for you to gain access to your account.
Once an account has been terminated, measures are taken to remove
those users from the system who no longer need access to our system.
When an employee is terminated or is no longer with the company,
we change the access codes that the employee used to access any
customer accounts. Account login sessions are terminated after
three failed login attempts; all terminated login sessions are
logged for follow-up. Passwords must contain at least six characters,
one of which is nonalphanumeric. Passwords are case sensitive
and must be updated every 90 days. Unused customer accounts, those
that have shown no activity for 6 months are purged from our system.
WHO HAS
ACCESS TO MY INFORMATION?
Only those
employees that are responsible for handling your account have
access to your information. Additionally, employees in our technical
department may have access to your information in order to conduct
routine checks on the integrity of our system and in order to
perform necessary maintenance work. In order to process your credit
card we have to consult with an out side credit card processing
company. These processing companies are regulated by the banking
industry and must meet certain security requirements in order
to be in business. The processing companies will have access to
your credit card information, billing address, name, and possibly
your telephone number. The processing company will communicate
with the issuing bank of your credit card in order to get final
approval to charge your credit card for the product or services
we are providing for you. Should you choose to receive additional
information regarding one of our services or products, we may
pass your email address to one of our partners who offers similar
products or services that you might be interested in. Additionally,
judicial requests by a duly authorized court will require us to
divulge certain information regarding your account should that
situation arise. Finally, should our company ever be bought or
sold, your account information would then become the property
of the new owner/entity.

OR REMOVE INFORMATION FROM YOUR SITE?

we have collected from you is indeed correct. You also have the
option of removing any information from your account that you
wish to keep private. However, please note that removing certain

the like may greatly hinder our ability to effectively provide

without interrupting the quality of service we intend to provide
