Your privacy is important to us. To better protect your privacy, we
provide this notice explaining our online information practices
and the choices you can make about the way your information is
collected and used on this Web site. Please see our Terms and
Conditions of Site Use for additional information applicable to
use of our Web site.
The Information We Collect
You do not have to give us personally identifiable information
in order to visit our Web site. However, on the Web site, you
may be able to order products, enter contests, participate in a
survey or otherwise express an opinion, subscribe to one of our
services such as our online newsletters, or participate in one
of our online forums or communities. Personally identifiable
information is generally provided and collected when you search,
buy, bid, post, participate in a contest or questionnaire, or
communicate with customer service. As a result of those actions,
you may supply us with such information as your name, address,
phone numbers, e-mail address, contact preferences, credit card
information, financial information and information relating to a
support or service issue that may, alone or in combination with
other data, constitute personally identifiable information. If
we collect personally identifiable information from you, you are
giving us permission to use that information for the specific
purpose for which it is provided and to contact you regarding
site services, improve or enhance site performance, to offer you
information regarding products and services, fulfill product
orders, improve our Web site, to communicate to you about other
matters that may be of interest to you and for any other purpose
described in this Privacy Policy. In connection with the
foregoing, we may share your information with our affiliates.
Users unwilling to provide personally identifiable information
online can choose to work with a sales representative or
customer service representative to utilize member services or
other site offerings.
We also may collect, store and use certain non-personally
identifiable information when you visit many of our Web pages
such as the type of browser you are using (e.g., Netscape,
Internet Explorer), the type of operating system you are using,
(e.g., Windows '95 or Mac OS) and the domain name of your
Internet service provider (e.g., America Online, Earthlink). In
addition, we aggregate data from multiple users in a manner that
is not personally identifiable and use such data as we deem
appropriate.
How We Use the Information
Information about our customers is an important part of our
business, and we are not in the business of selling personally
identifiable information to unaffiliated third parties for their
commercial use. We share personally identifiable customer
information with unaffiliated third parties only as described
herein.
* Businesses We Do Not Control: At times, we may provide
products and services on our Web site in cooperation with an
unaffiliated third party. You can tell when a third party is
involved in your transactions, and we share customer information
related to those transactions with that third party.
* Agents: We employ other companies and individuals to perform
functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders,
delivering packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, removing
repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data,
providing marketing assistance, providing search results and
links (including paid listings and links), processing credit
card payments and providing customer service. They have access
to personal information needed to perform their functions, but
may not use it for other purposes.
* Promotional Offers: Sometimes we send offers to selected
groups of customers on behalf of other businesses. When we do
this, we do not give that business your name and address.
* Business Transfers: As we continue to develop our business, we
might sell or buy companies, subsidiaries or business units. In
such transactions, customer information generally is one of the
transferred business assets, but remains subject to the promises
made in any pre-existing Privacy Policy (unless, of course, the
customer consents otherwise). Also, in the event that we are
acquired or assigned, customer information will of course be one
of the transferred assets.
* Protection of Our Web site and Others: We reserve the right to
release account and other personal information when we believe
release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce or apply
our Terms and Conditions of Site Use and other agreements, or
protect the rights, property or safety of this company, our
users or others. This includes exchanging information with other
companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk
reduction. Obviously, however, this does not include selling,
renting, sharing or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable
information from customers for commercial purposes in violation
of the commitments set forth in this Privacy Notice.
* With Your Consent: Other than as set out above, you will
receive notice when information about you might go to third
parties, and you will have an opportunity to choose not to share
the information.
We sometimes use the non-personally identifiable information
that we collect to monitor user traffic patterns, analyze and
quantify user preferences, improve the design and content of our
