Use of Cookies

To enable features on the site, we may assign one or more “cookies” to your Internet browser. Cookies, among other things, speed navigation through the site, keep track of information so that you do not have to re-enter it each time you visit the site, and may provide you with customized content. A cookie is an Internet mechanism composed of a small text file containing a unique identification number that permits a web server to send small pieces of information or text by means of your browser and place them on your computer’s hard drive for storage. Cookies by themselves cannot be used to find out the identity of any user.

We use cookies to collect and maintain aggregated data (such as the number of visitors) to help us see which areas are most popular with our users and improve and update the content on our site. We use this aggregated data only as explained in this Privacy Policy. We do not connect aggregated data to any name, address, or other identifying personal information.

At this time, we do not give effect to “do not track” signals or other mechanisms that limit the collection of personal information about your online activities.

We will retain your information for as long as needed to complete the purchase of products from us, and to provide any services or follow-up communications regarding those products.

Disclosure of Your Information

We do not share this information with outside parties except to the extent necessary to complete your orders and other processes requested by you, and to provide other functionality of our website.

We may also release your information when necessary to comply with applicable law or to enforce our site policies.

We use return email addresses to answer the email we receive. Unless you ask us not to, we may contact you via email in the future to tell you about specials, new products or services, or other matters. If you wish to opt out of receiving these emails in the future, please let us know in the form below. If you initially consent to receive these kinds of emails, you always may withdraw that consent.

Email addresses are not used for any other purpose and are not shared with outside parties except as otherwise described in this Policy.

We use non-identifying and aggregate information obtained from users to better design and operate our website but we will not disclose anything that could be used to identify those users.

Finally, we never use or share the personally identifiable information provided to us online in ways unrelated to the ones described above without also providing you an opportunity to opt-out or otherwise prohibit such unrelated uses.

Our Commitment to Data Security

To prevent unauthorized access, maintain data accuracy, and ensure the correct use of information, we have put in place appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard and secure the information we collect online. Your information is protected by administrative, physical, and technical safeguards. Physical safeguards include high security access control to our server infrastructure. Electronic safeguards utilize the technology available to prevent unauthorized users from accessing the data. Administrative safeguards include implementation of industry-recognized management procedures that are designed to improve security.

Our personnel who are in contact with data are very familiar with our policies, and they have been trained and understand the requirements of safeguarding data. Personnel’s access to data is also electronically limited and monitored, based on the authority and task level required for the performance of each person’s duties.

How You Can Access Or Correct Your Information

You can inquire about all your personally identifiable information that we collect online and maintain by contacting us. We use this procedure to better safeguard your information.

You can correct factual errors in your personally identifiable information by sending us a request that credibly shows error.

To protect your privacy and security, we will also take reasonable steps to verify your identity before granting access or making corrections.

Arbitration of All Disputes, Waiver of Right to Assert Representative Claims

Any dispute arising from or relating to this Policy or to your use of our website shall be submitted to binding arbitration before a private arbitrator, rather than asserted in a court action. You recognize that you are waiving your right to file a lawsuit and waiving your right to a jury trial. The arbitration shall be conducted before the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service (JAMS), located in Los Angeles, California. You may commence an arbitration proceeding by contacting JAMS at (213) 620-1133 or through their website, https://www.jamsadr.com. The JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures then in effect shall apply to the proceedings. Those rules are available on the JAMS website.

You further agree that you will not assert any class action or other representative claims arising from or relating to your use of our website. The waiver of class or other representative claims shall not apply, where a waiver of this type is prohibited by law.
