How We Respond to “Do Not Track” Requests?

The Site does not engage in the collection of personally identifiable information from users across third party websites or third party online services or applications. We do not knowingly enable other parties to collect personally identifiable information about our users’ activities over time and across different sites, applications or services. Tools we use to analyze web traffic on the Site may not recognize or respond to “do not track” requests from some web browsers; however, these tools do not record an individual user’s session on the Site and provide aggregate information only.

Your Options Regarding the Collection of Information?

• You may choose not to provide certain Personal Information, but doing so may prevent you from creating an Account or purchasing products through the Site.
• You may request updates to your profile and the related Personal Information associated with your Account at any time.
• Your web browser may allow you to block, restrict, or “opt-out” of our or a third party’s use of cookies. Some web browsers also enable users to clear cookies that are stored on the browser.
• You may opt-out of any of our Marketing Communications. To do so, follow the unsubscribe link that appears at the end of each communication.

What Information Can You Access/Update?

If you have an Account, you will have access on your Account profile to view certain Personal Information that we have collected regarding you and Your Company. The Personal Information you may access on your Account profile includes, by way of example, your name and/or the name of Your Company; your title (if provided), addresses, telephone and facsimile numbers, email addresses, and Your Company’s FEIN and resale number(s). You may request updates to this information by contacting us at [email protected]. We will make commercially reasonable efforts to update such Personal Information within 30 days of all authorized requests. Details regarding Your Company’s payment preferences, bank accounts, and credit/debit card details will not be accessible on your Account profile but you may request updates to this information by contacting us at [email protected].

Unless you do or did have an Account, it is unlikely that we have Personal Information regarding you that can be readily accessed. However, if you have concerns, requests or inquiries regarding information we collect, please contact our Privacy Officer at [email protected]. In the unlikely event that we cannot provide you details regarding or access to this information, we will explain why we cannot do so. For example, we may not be able to provide details or access if it would be disproportionately burdensome or would violate the rights of others.

For California Residents. We have and follow a policy of not disclosing customers’ personal information to third parties for direct marketing purposes. Accordingly, the disclosure requirements of California Civil Code Section 1798.83 (also known as S.B. 27), do not apply to any Personal Information we may collect.

Security

We understand that the security of your Personal Information is important. We provide appropriate administrative and security measures to protect against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of your Personal Information. We use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) to encrypt the transmission of data on the Account application, login pages, and payment processing. Please be aware, however, that despite our efforts, no transmission of information via the internet can be entirely secure and we cannot ensure or warrant the security of all information we collect. You should, therefore, always use caution when submitting Personal Information online.

Third Party Websites

This Policy applies to our Site, but not to a third party website or application that you may access from a hyperlink found on the Site. If you submit Personal Information to any of those sites, your information is subject to their privacy statements. We encourage you to carefully read the privacy statement of any website you visit.

Changes to this Policy

We may modify this Policy at any time by posting a revised version on the Site. If you have an Account, we will notify you by email in the event of any such modification to this Policy.
