HOW WE SECURE YOUR INFORMATION

We take the security of your information seriously and have taken commercially reasonable steps to help ensure that your personal information remains secure. For all personal information transmitted to or from Company, we use professional data transmission and storage firms that follow industry standards and have experience in the secure transmission and storage of data.

In particular, we understand that some Users may have concerns about use of credit cards to purchase Company products and services online. For orders placed on our Site, we use a technology that automatically encrypts credit card data while information is transmitted over the internet, provided that your browser supports the Secure Socket Layer protocol (SSL). We do not store your complete credit card number or security code in our records, and only keep the last 4 digits and the expiration date if needed for verification or subsequent purchases. Only the last 4 digits of your credit card will be displayed on any receipt or purchase confirmation.

To protect your privacy and security, we take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access to your Account or updating any of your personal information. In order to assist us, we ask that you protect against unauthorized access of your Account and personal information. You should never share your password and login information with anyone else. If you have enabled cookies, browser password retention, or automatic login features, you should protect your electronic device with a secure password so that if your device is lost or stolen your Account will not be compromised. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.

Despite your and our efforts and any safeguards we may put in place, you should be aware that no form of data storage and transmission, whether in physical or electronic form, can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Unauthorized access, hardware or software weaknesses or failures, and other factors may compromise the security of personal information. As a result, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to Company, and you do so at your own risk. There is also no guarantee that your personal information will not be accessed, disclosed, altered or destroyed. If we learn of a security breach of our data transmission or storage systems we may attempt to notify you electronically or post a notice on the Site so that you can take protective steps.
