receive and store information you enter.
For example, when you search for or buy a product or service, or when you supply
information such as your address, phone number or credit card. You can choose
not to provide certain information, but then you might not be able to take
advantage of some of our features. We
use the information that you provide for such purposes as responding to your
requests, customizing future shopping for you, improving our website, and
communicating with you.In addition, if
you choose, we may share your information with other companies who provide goods
or services that you are interested in.
Please see the “opt-in/opt-out” selection in Section 4 of this policy.

transfer to your hard drive that allow us to recognize you and to provide you
with a customized shopping experience.
If you do not want us to use cookies, you can easily disable them by going to
the toolbar of your web browser, and clicking on the “help” button. Follow the instructions that will prevent
the browser from accepting cookies, or set the browser to inform you when you

Information from Other Sources.
We might receive information about you from other sources and add it to our
account information. This may include
updated delivery and address information from our shippers or other sources so
that we can correct our records and deliver your next purchase or communication
more easily.
2. How Do We Use Your Information?
-
Customized Shopping. We use your
information to better serve you by providing a customized shopping experience. As noted above, you may “opt-out” of this
customization, or even visit and shop anonymously.
-
Agents. We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on
our behalf. Examples include delivering packages, sending postal mail and
e-mail, and processing credit card payments. They have access to personal
information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other
purposes.
-
Special Offers. We may send you
special offers from time to time, unless you choose to “opt-out” of receiving
such offers. In addition, we may also
send you special offers from other companies. Again, you may “opt-out”. If we
send you offers from other businesses, we do not share your personal information
with them. The offers come directly
through us. Please see the
"opt-in/opt-out" selection at the end of this policy.
-
Business Transfers. As we continue to develop our business, we might sell
or buy stores or assets. In such transactions, customer information generally is
one of the transferred business assets. Also, in the unlikely event that we are
acquired, customer information will be one of the transferred assets.
-
Law Enforcement. If we receive a
lawful court order to release account or other personal information then we will
comply with the law. We will also
release information when necessary to protect the life, safety or property of
others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and
organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction.
3. How Do We Protect the Security of

We work to protect the security of your information during transmission by using
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) software, which encrypts information you input.

We use encryption to protect your information contained in our customer list.
-
We use a firewall to protect against unlawful intrusion.
-
We limit access to your information on a “need to know” basis.
-
We reveal only the last five digits of your credit card numbers when confirming
an order. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the
appropriate credit card company during order processing.
-
It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password
and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.
-
No system can guarantee absolute security, just as the finest lock can not
guarantee physical security. However, we
take every reasonable precaution to assure that your data is secure.
