Use of IP Addresses
An IP address is a number assigned to your computer automatically when you access the Internet. We use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our server, to administer our web site and to report aggregate information to our sponsors and advertisers.
Use of Cookies
Upon viewing our website, your computer automatically receives certain information for it to store. This information is popularly referred to as a "cookie", which is an alphanumeric identifier that helps you to use a web site more efficiently and prevents you from reentering data every time you access our site. Cookies do not contain any personal information. Should you wish to remove this feature, most Internet browsers allow you to control the placement of cookies on your hard drive.
Sharing of Information
Your account information is very important to us and we share such information only in limited situations. For example, we may provide the information in cases where we employ other agents for servicing or processing your orders or accounts, provided that the information is only used to perform the specific function asked. We may also share such information when we believe it is necessary to comply with applicable law, enforce or apply our Terms of Service, or to protect the rights, property or safety of our company, our customers, or others. Finally, we may share such information should we sell part or all of the business or if we otherwise obtain your consent to do so.
Security
The registration page, where you enter your credit card information, is secure. This means that any information you send us is protected by encryption. It is easy to tell when you are protected by encryption - your browser displays a lock or a key which is no longer broker or changes color when you are on a secure page. The actual icon and its location may vary depending on your browser. For example, Netscape has a "Security" padlock icon at the top of the page, which closes when you have entered a secure page. Internet Explorer displays a closed padlock at the bottom of the page when a page is secure.
We use secure sockets layer (SSL) software, which is the industry standard today for secure transactions. It encrypts all of your personal information, including credit card number, name and address, so that it cannot be read as the information travels over the Internet. However, such security measures may not prevent all loss, misuse or alteration of information on our web site.
