We respect your right to privacy. This policy summarizes what personally identifiable
information we may collect, and how we might use this information. This policy also
describes other important topics relating to your privacy.
Information Collection
We will collect personally identifiable information (such as name, title, company name,
address, telephone number, or e-mail address) that you voluntarily provide through our
web site, computer application or e-mail correspondence. We will collect general
information (such as the type of browser you use, the files you request, and the
domain name and country from which you request information) to improve our web site
and better meet your needs.
If you enter into a transaction (such as a purchase) at this website or via our
computer application, you will be required to provide information that is needed to
complete the transaction, including your name, shipping address, product selection(s),
and your payment information. We do not keep any credit or other payment information
longer than is necessary in order to comply with legal, tax, and auditing requirements.
In some instances, your payment information may be handled by a third party provider.
When this occurs, we will never receive that information.
Other information you provide may be added to our company database(s) and shared with
our affiliates or third parties including contractors, dealers, distributors and retailers.
We may passively collect information that is automatically sent to us by your web
browser, this application or your internet service provider or mobile carrier. This
information typically includes your domain name, your user name, and your numerical IP
address. The amount of information sent by your web browser depends on its settings.
Please refer to your browser if you want to learn what information it sends. We use
this type of information to see which web pages you visit at our website, which
website you visited before coming to our website, and where you go after you leave our
website. We can then develop statistics that help us understand how our visitors use
our website and how we can improve it.
We may actively obtain information about you by installing a marker on your computer
commonly called a "cookie." Cookies enable us to know you by a computer-generated,
unique identifier. By providing you with a unique cookie, we are able to create a
database of your previous choices and preferences, and in situations where these
choices or preferences need to be collected again; they can be supplied by us
automatically, saving you time and effort. For example, after you purchase a product
once, if you need to purchase it again, your previous selections for color or other
features will have been retained, and can be reentered more quickly. Your computer may
be specially configured to reject cookies; please refer to your browser for more
information. Many of our websites will allow you to visit without accepting cookies,
but some features of our websites may not work properly if you choose to reject cookies.
Some of our sites and our computer applications may use third-party advertising
technology to serve ads when you visit our website and sites upon which we advertise.
This technology uses information about your visits to this website, your use of our
application and the sites upon which we advertise, 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 device. In addition, these sites may use web beacons,
provided by our third-party ad server, to help manage and optimize our online
advertising. These web beacons enable our ad server, on our behalf or on behalf of our
agent, to recognize a browser's cookie when a browser visits this site, and to learn
which banner ads bring users to our website. Our third-party ad server is performing
its functions on our behalf or on behalf of our agent, and we may, directly or
indirectly, instruct such ad server to enable other service providers to receive
information about our site related to our online advertising.
Use of Information
The information will be used by us, e.g., to respond to your inquiries, supply you
with requested information on our products and services or track orders you place with
us. In addition, authorized third parties may be utilized by us to collect, track and
process such information. If you have submitted personal information to us
electronically and would like it removed or modified, please contact us by
clicking here. We will use
reasonable efforts to comply with your request. It may be necessary, if required by
law or if pertinent to judicial or governmental investigations, to release your
personally identifiable information. Although we have taken reasonable and prudent
measures to protect its computer systems from unauthorized third parties, we are not
responsible for unauthorized use by such third parties of your personally identifiable
information.
We may use any of the information gathered at this website (other than credit
information) for any legal purpose. We may analyze personal information for historical,
statistical or scientific purposes, or we may store the personal information for your
convenience should you return to this website or our computer applications in the
future. In the course of any of these activities, we may transmit any of the
information we have collected to another country or share it with our affiliates or
third parties including contractors, dealers, distributors and retailers. An example
of a third party that could receive your personal information is a data processing
contractor that operates computer systems on our behalf. Whenever any personal
information is transferred to an affiliate or third party, that party will be
contractually bound to abide by our privacy policy.
We may also use your personal information to investigate security breaches or
cooperate with government authorities pursuant to a legal matter. Personal information
collected online may also be combined with information you have provided to us through
other sources such as product registrations, call centers, or publicly such as at
trade shows or seminars.
In addition, we may have collected similar information from you in the past, before
our Privacy Policy took effect. By using this website or our computer application you
agree to the terms of this privacy policy. By agreeing to the terms of this privacy
policy you are consenting to our continued use of previously collected information
under the terms of this privacy policy.
Children and Parents
We do not intend to collect personally identifiable information from children without
permission of the child's parent or legal guardian. Children should submit personally
identifiable information to us only with the explicit permission of their parent or
legal guardian. Where appropriate, we will instruct children not to submit personal
information. If your child has submitted personal information and you would like to
request that such information be removed, you may do so as indicated above, and we
will use reasonable efforts to comply with your request.
