Information Collected
Through the combination of both internal and third party tracking code as well as cookies, we track the following categories of information when a visitor enters the Site: (1) IP address, (2) domain servers, (3) type of computer used to access the Site, (4) types of web browsers (collectively “Anonymous Data”). Such data does not collect information that identifies you as an individual. We use Anonymous Data for general marketing purposes and to help enhance customer experience on the Sites and Services.
We may use third-party advertising companies to serve ads on our behalf. These companies may employ cookies and action tags also known as single pixel gifs or web beacons to measure advertising effectiveness. Any information that these third parties collect via cookies and action tags is completely anonymous. See more about online advertising and your options at the Digital Advertising Alliance website.
For you to access certain services that we offer through the Sites and Services, we may require you to provide us with information that can identify you as an individual (“Personally Identifiable Information”). Or in accessing certain services, such as search features, you may incidentally provide such Personally Identifiable Information or information about a legal issue or circumstance related to yourself or someone else (“Legal Information”). Personally Identifiable Information includes “Contact Data” (such as your first and last name, physical street address, city, state, zip code, phone number and email address).
Please note that Contact Data, Legal Information, and Anonymous Data is used to gather general statistics regarding our customers and visitors, in order to enhance the consumer experience on the Sites and Services. We may also use demographic data in a manner that does not identify you specifically or allow you to be contacted but does identify certain criteria about our users in general. For example, we may inform third parties about the number of registered users, proportion of users by age and gender, number of unique visitors, and the pages most frequently browsed.
We use your Contact Data to provide you with special information and promotions regarding our products or to contact a customer regarding an order or to respond to a question or request.
If you post information on any of our message boards or forums, such information you provide may be available to other members of the Sites and other Site visitors. You should use caution when deciding to disclose your personal information in these venues as we do not control who may participate in these interactive forums.
Also, please be advised that certain personal information becomes public record upon the filing of documents with the state or the court. For example, the corporate name, business address and the name of the registered agent become public information upon the filing of articles of incorporation. In many cases, the Secretary of State will provide this information to third parties for a fee. The US Patent and Trademark Office will also make public the names and addresses of trademark registrants. In some states, fictitious business names, including the name and address of the business owner, must be published in a newspaper. Our privacy policy does not cover actions by these third parties.
