Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy tells you how we protect and use information that we gather from you when you access the website or mobile applications (if any) to which this policy is linked (the “Site”). By using this Site and/or submitting information through this Site, you consent to the terms described in the most recent version of this Privacy Policy. You should also read our Website Terms of Use to understand the general rules about your use of this Site, and any additional terms that may apply when you access particular services or materials on certain areas of this Site.
What is public information and how is it collected and used?
Public information is information that is publicly known, or information that cannot identify you as an individual person. Because this information cannot identify you or be tied to you personally in any way, there are no restrictions on the ways that we can use or share such public information.
​
What is private information and how is it collected?
Private information is information that identifies you as an individual, such as your name, mailing address, e-mail address, telephone number, account or credit card / payment number, and fax number, which you give us in connection with your access to this Site. We may collect private information from you in a variety of ways when you fill out an online form or survey, or when you conduct an online transaction with us.
​
How do we use private information?
We may keep and use private information we collect from or about you to provide you with access to the Site or other products or services, to respond to your requests, to fulfill orders, to bill you for products or services you purchased, to provide ongoing service and support, to contact you with information that might be of interest to you, including information about products and services of ours and of others, or ask for your opinion about our services or the products of others, for record keeping and analytical purposes and to research, develop and improve programs, products, services and Site content, and for legal compliance. Private information collected online may be combined with information you provide to us through other sources or information we obtain from other sources.
We may also remove your private identifiers (your name, e-mail address, address, etc). In this case, you would no longer be identified as a single unique individual. Once we have de-identified information, it is no longer private information and we may treat it like other public information.
Finally, we may use your private information to protect our rights or property, or to protect someone's health, safety or welfare, and to comply with a law or regulation, court order or other legal process.
​
Do we share private information with others?
We will not share your private information collected from the Site with an unrelated third party without your permission, except as otherwise provided in this Privacy Policy. In the ordinary course of business, we may share some private information with companies that we hire to perform services or functions on our behalf. For example, if you order a product, we may engage a third party to ship the product and we will share information as needed to process your payment. Third party vendors assist us with many of these tasks. In all cases in which we share your private information with a third party for the purpose of providing a service to us, we will prohibit them from keeping, disclosing or using your information on terms substantially similar to those in this Privacy Policy. We will not sell your private information to unrelated third parties, except in conjunction with a corporate sale, merger, reorganization, dissolution, or acquisition, or to an affiliate.
We may be legally compelled to release your private information in response to a court order, subpoena, search warrant, law or regulation. We may cooperate with law enforcement authorities in investigating and prosecuting Site visitors who violate our rules or engage in behavior which is harmful to other visitors (or illegal). We also may disclose your private information to third parties if we feel that the disclosure is necessary to protect our rights or property, protect someone's health, safety or welfare, or to comply with a law or regulation, court order or other legal process.

What about Children’s Privacy Rights?
We will not intentionally collect any private information (such as a child’s name or email address) from children under the age of 13. If you think that we have collected private information from a child under the age of 13, please contact us.
