How We Protect Personal Information

Information We Collect by Automated Means
 
Cookies
Like many companies, we use “cookies” on our website.  A cookie is a block of text placed in a file on your hard drive by a website you've visited.  These types of cookies cannot identify you specifically, such as by name or address, unless the cookie data is attached to personal information such as online registration.  We use cookies to tell us, for example, whether you have visited our website before or if you are a new visitor and to help us identify site features in which you may have the greatest interest.  Cookies may enhance your online experience by saving your preferences while you are visiting a particular site.
 
We also use a session cookie, which is a piece of identification between your browser and our server.  This helps us keep track of the items in your shopping cart, and other information.  The shopping cart cookie is saved for a designated period of time in case your session expires and you return to complete a purchase within that time frame.  We do not link cookies to personal information.
 
Most browsers will tell you how to stop accepting new cookies, how to be notified when you receive a new cookie, and how to disable existing cookies.  Please note, however, that without cookies you may not be able to take full advantage of all our website features.
 
IP Addresses
An IP address is a unique identifier that certain electronic devices use to identify and communicate with each other on the Internet.  When you visit our website, we may view the IP address of the device you use to connect to the Internet.  We use this information to determine the general physical location of the device and understand from what regions of the world our website visitors come.  We also may use this information to enhance our website.
 
 
How to Remove Yourself from Our Mailing/Email List
You May opt out of receiving further promotional emails from us by using the opt-out mechanism provided in each promotional email you receive.  This does not automatically cancel all further promotional material sent by regular mail.  If you wish to not receive information by regular mail please call us at 877-943-3575.
 
Links to Other Sites
Our website may provide links to other websites for your convenience and information.  These websites may operate independently from us.  Linked websites may have their own privacy notices or policies, which we strongly suggest you review if you visit any linked websites.  We are not responsible for the content of linked websites, any use of linked websites, or the privacy practices of linked websites.
 
Access and Correction
We provide website visitors with reasonable access to personal information they provide through our website and the ability to review and correct it, as applicable.  To help protect your privacy and security, we may take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access to your information.  To update or correct your information, contact us by email.
