Privacy Policy
This privacy statement discloses the privacy practices.
This website agrees to notify you of:
- What personally identifiable
information of yours or third party personally identification is
collected from you through the website
- The organization collecting the information
- How the information is used
- With whom the information may be shared
- What choices are available to you regarding collection, use and distribution of the information

Information Collection and Use
We are the sole owner of the
information collected on this site. We will not sell, share, or rent
this information to others in ways different from what is disclosed in
this statement. We collecs information from our users at several
different points on our website.
Order
We request information from the user on
our registration, order and payment forms. Here a user must provide
contact information (like name and address) and financial information
(like credit card number, expiration date). This information is used for
billing purposes and to fulfill customer's orders. If we have trouble
processing an order, this contact information is used to get in touch
with the user.
Cookies
A cookie is a piece of data stored on
the user's hard drive containing information about the user. Usage of a
cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information
while on our site and is encrypted so cannot be read by any other
website. Once the user closes their browser, the cookie simply
terminates. It will also terminate once a period of time has elapsed
since first using the site.
Log Files
We use IP addresses to analyse trends,
administer the site, and gather broad demographic information for
aggregate use. IP addresses are not linked to personally identifiable
information.
Sharing
We may share aggregated demographic
information with our partners and advertisers. This is not linked to any
personal information that can identify any individual person.
We use a credit card processing company
to bill users for services. These companies do not retain, share, store
or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes.
Links
This website may contain links to other
sites. Please be aware that we are not responsible for the privacy
practices of such other sites. We encourage our users to be aware when
they leave our site and to read the privacy statements of each and every
website that collects personally identifiable information. This privacy
statement applies solely to information collected by this website.
Security
This website takes every precaution to
protect our users' information. When users submit sensitive information
via the website, your information is protected both online and off-line.
When our order form asks users to enter
sensitive information (such as credit card number), that information is
encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software in the
industry - SSL. While on a secure page, such as our order form, the lock
icon on the bottom of Web browsers such as Netscape Navigator and
Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as opposed to un-locked, or
open, when you are just 'surfing'.
While we use SSL encryption to protect
sensitive information online, we also do everything in our power to
protect user-information off-line. All of our users' information, not
just the sensitive information mentioned above, is restricted in our
offices. Only employees who need the information to perform a specific
job (for example, our accounting staff or a customer care
representative) are granted access to personally identifiable
information.
Correction/Updating Personal Information
If a user's personally identifiable
information changes (such as your postcode), or if a user no longer
desires our service, we will endeavor to provide a way to correct,
update or remove that user's personal data provided to us.
Choice/Opt-out
If you use this site to purchase
services you may occasionally receive information on products, services,
special deals and a newsletter. Out of respect for the privacy of our
users we present the option to not receive these types of communications
on our order form.
Users who no longer wish to receive our
newsletter or promotional materials from our partners may opt-out of
receiving these communications by replying to unsubscribe in the subject
line in the email, or by contacting us directly.
Users of our site are notified when
their information is being collected or used by any third parties. We do
this so our users can make an informed choice as to whether they should
proceed with services that require any third party, or not.
Notification of Changes
If we decide to change our privacy
policy, we will post those changes on our Homepage so our users are
always aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under
what circumstances, if any, we disclose it. If at any point we decide to
use personally identifiable information in a manner different from that
stated at the time it was collected, we will notify users by way of an
email. Users will have a choice as to whether or not we use their
information in this different manner. We will use information in
accordance with the Privacy Policy under which the information was
collected.
