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) that enables the site's or service provider's systems to recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information. For instance, we use cookies to help us remember and process the items in your 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 site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future.

We use cookies to:
  • Remember and process the items in your shopping cart.

Addthis tracks social media actions and collects non-personal information in the form of web analytics, which they share in aggregated form. All data is anonomous.

Under these new regulations, you have a right to know what information we hold about you, how we secure it and you can ask us to delete any information we hold about you or ask us not to use it (restrict data).

We will collect and store your information to fulfill a contract with you. This means we store your information to be able to send you quotes, fulfill your orders, keep accounting records, respond to your requests or provide technical support and software updates. Creating an account on our web site, placing an order, registering for technical support, requesting a quote or technical support means that we will store the information you give us to fulfill the contract.

We will not transfer or supply your information to third parties, either in the EU or outside, without your specific consent. This may be to enable a manufacturer to give you technical support or warranty rights directly, for example.

We do not collect or keep any information about children nor do we market to children.

California Online Privacy Protection Act

CalOPPA is the first state law in the US to require commercial websites to post a privacy policy if they are collecting Personally Identifiable Information from California consumers. They must post a conspicuous privacy policy on the website stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals or companies with whom it is being shared. - See more at: Online Privacy

According to CalOPPA, we agree to the following:
  • Users can visit our site anonymously.
  • Once this privacy policy is created, we will add a link to it on our home page.

COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)

When it comes to the collection of personal information from children under the age of 13 years old, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control. The Federal Trade Commission, United States' 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 the age of 13 years old or allow third-parties, including ad networks or plug-ins, collect PII from children under 13

Fair Information Practices

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

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

We will notify you via email within 7 business days if the breach has significant effects and we will notify the users via in-site notification within 7 business days in any event.

We also agree to the Individual Redress Principle which requires that individuals have the right to legally pursue enforceable rights against data collectors and processors who fail to adhere to the law. This principle requires not only that individuals have enforceable rights against data users, but also that individuals have recourse to courts or government agencies to investigate and/or 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 collect your email address in order to:
  • Send information, respond to inquiries, and/or other requests or questions
  • Process orders and to send information and updates pertaining to orders.
  • Send you additional information related to your product and/or service
