Personal Information
We collect personally identifiable information from you on a voluntary basis -- in other words, only if you provide it to us. Personal information collected on a voluntary basis may include your name, mailing address, e-mail address, and telephone number.
This information is collected if you request information from us, participate in a contest or sweepstakes, sign up to join our email list, or request some other service or information from us. The information collected is internally reviewed, used to improve the content of our website, notify our visitors of updates, and respond to visitor inquiries.
In addition, if you purchase goods or services from us, in addition to the information specified above, we may also collect your credit card and/or billing information in order to process the transaction and furnish the items you purchase.
Once information is reviewed and utilized for the purpose you provided it for, it may be discarded or stored in our files. If we make material changes in the collection of personally identifiable information, we will inform you by updating this notice. Personal information will be used only for internal purposes and will not be sold or provided to third parties except as provided herein.
Use of Cookies and Web Beacons
We may use cookies to help personalize your online experience. Cookies are small bits of code that are transferred to your computer's hard drive through your Web browser to enable our systems to recognize your browser when you return. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize the site's pages, or register with any of our site's services, a cookie enables us to recall your specific information on subsequent visits, to enhance your web experience on our site.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies by modifying the settings in your Web browser; however, if you choose to decline cookies, certain features of this site may not work as intended, or you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the site.
A web beacon is a transparent image file used to monitor your journey around a single website or collection of sites. Web beacons may also be referred to as web bugs and are commonly used by sites that hire third-party services to monitor traffic. They may be used in association with cookies to understand how visitors interact with the pages and content on the pages of a web site.
We may serve third party advertisements that use cookies and web beacons in the course of ads being served on our web site to ascertain how many times you've seen an advertisement. No personally identifiable information you give us is provided to those third-party advertisers for cookie or web beacon use, so they cannot personally identify you with that information on our web site.
Browsers can be set to accept or reject cookies or ask you before a cookie is sent. Privacy software can be used to override web beacons. Taking either of these actions shouldn't cause a problem with our site, should you choose them.
