We employ various methods for collecting information. To begin with, we
use “cookies” that are needed to compile aggregate non-personally
identifiable information about the visitors to our web site. Personally
identifiable information consists of information that is unique to you,
such as credit card numbers, bank accounts, social security numbers, home
address, email address and the like. This is the type of information that
most people consider private and deem the most important to protect from
unauthorized access.
Non-personally identifiable information most often consists
of things such as your search preferences, the types of products you have
bought, how many times you have visited a particular web site, etc. This
type of information is usually associated with a particular computer or
IP address but not with a particular person. “Cookies” are
pieces of information generated by a web server and stored in the user's
computer, ready for future access. Each time you access our web site;
our server finds the relevant cookie on your computer. The information
contained within that cookie is then used to customize your experience
with our site. The following is a list of the information we collect:
We automatically record the name of the domain (for example,"yahoo.com"
if you use a private Internet access account, or "yourcollege.edu"
if you are connecting from a university's domain); the IP address (a number
that is automatically assigned to your computer when you are using the
Internet) from which you access our website; the type of browser and operating
system used to access our site; the date and time you access our site;
the Internet address of the website from which you linked directly to
our site; and the pages you visit.
WHY DO WE COLLECT THIS INFORMATION?
We use this information in order to serve the needs of our customers.
We need to know who you are in order to verify the credit card information
you have sent us and to conduct a thorough background check of you or
your company. We collect several pieces of personal information from you
in order to complete this verification process. The non-personal information
that we collect from you is used for internal purposes to make your experience
with our site more enjoyable. We may use the non-personal information
we collect from our visitors/customers in an aggregate form to aid in
our marketing efforts with third parties or to provide data to one of
our affiliated companies. We may also use your email address to notify
of you other products or services you may be interested in.
HOW IS YOUR INFORMATION PROTECTED?
We use the latest in encryption technology, including 128 bit SSL encryption
to ensure that any sensitive information that is sent by you to us via
the Internet is protected from unauthorized interception. All information
submitted by a customer via the Internet is stored on a server, which
requires proper-authentication for access. The server is housed in a secure
environment that employs a variety of techniques to protect your information.
We also use anti-virus protection software to guard against outside attacks
on our networks. All employees that we do hire have to sign a confidentiality
agreement that forbids them from disclosing any information to which the
employee has access, to other individuals or entities. We also have back
up servers and power supplies to guard against power outages and other
natural occurrences that could pose a threat to the integrity of your
personal information. Passwords are required in order for you to gain
access to your account. Once an account has been terminated, measures
are taken to remove those users from the system who no longer need access
to our system. Our servers are manned 24-hours a day, in a building that
is UL approved for fire protection. Any information submitted by a customer
by other means such as the mail, or by facsimile, is stored in a secure
area that requires a key to gain access to. Access to this information
is limited to only those employees who need the information in order to
do their job effectively.
