This Policy applies only to information collected through the Sites and not to information collected offline. For more information on how a Site may redirect you to other web sites, please see the “Links and Redirection to Third Party Sites” section below.
Information We Collect
We collect and store information that you voluntarily provide to us as well as data related to your Site visit and usage.
In some areas of the Site we request or may request that you provide personally identifiable information, including your name, address, email address, telephone number, username and other information from which your identity is or may be discernible. We collect personally identifiable information from our users at several different points on each Site. If you elect to create a corporate account, you may also have the opportunity to provide additional information about your business, including the number of employees you hire and your geographic service area, but it is solely up to you whether you furnish such information. If you do provide such information, you are thereby consenting to the use of that information in accordance with the policies and practices described in this Policy. We may also maintain a record of the purchases you make from the Site. This information may be stored on our servers and on the servers of third party service providers.
The email address you provide when creating an individual or corporate user account will only be used to send you information and updates. Emails are stored securely on an encrypted drive with controlled and audited access and only used to inform you of information specifically relevant to your account
In addition, during your visit we automatically collect certain aggregate information and analytical data related to your Site visit (see “Use of Cookies” below). Aggregate information is non-personally identifiable or anonymous information about you, including the date and time of your visit, the IP address of your computer or mobile device, your computer or mobile device browser information, the Internet address that you visited prior to and after reaching the Site, the name of the domain and host you used to access the Internet, the type of mobile device you use, your mobile device’s unique device ID and the features of our Site which you accessed. These data are in no way associated with your personally identifiable information.
How We Use Information
We use collected information to make available and to improve our high standard of reliable services. We use such information to:
- respond to inquiries or service requests and monitor such responses;
- provide information about and market our products or services;
- resolve problems; and
- manage the Site and assess usage of the Services.
Disclosure of Information
We do not sell or rent personally identifiable information to third parties who are not affiliates of the Company. In addition we may disclose personally identifiable information to appropriate affiliates of the Company, including strategic alliance affiliates and third party service providers, to respond to a request for service or to provide information about available products or services. We are not limited in our use of non-personal information that does not permit direct association with any specific individual or non-identifiable aggregate information about our users (such as the number of users of our Services, the geographic distribution of our users, the amount of information located and/or removed, etc.).
We disclose information that we in good faith believe is appropriate to cooperate in investigations of fraud or other illegal activity or to conduct investigations of violations of our Terms of Use. For example, this means that if we conduct a fraud investigation and conclude that one side has engaged in deceptive practices, we can give that person or entity’s contact information to victims who request it.
We disclose information in response to a subpoena, warrant, court order, levy, attachment, order of a court-appointed receiver or other comparable legal process, including subpoenas from private parties in a civil action. If the subpoena seeks information about an identified user or limited group of users, we will make reasonable business efforts to contact the user(s) before providing information to the party that requests it. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to contact the user(s) in all cases, whether because of a time limit, court order, inability to effectively contact a user or for any other reason.
We may disclose information to your agent or legal representative (such as the holder of a power of attorney that you grant or a guardian appointed for you).
We share information with companies that provide public relations and marketing services for us. Such information will only be shared by us to customize, measure and improve our products, Services and advertising; it will not be shared with third parties for their marketing purposes. These third parties are obligated to protect your information and are prohibited from using your personally identifiable information for any other purpose.
As with any other business, it is possible that in the future we could merge with or be acquired by another company. If such an acquisition occurs, the successor company would have access to the information maintained by us, including customer account information, but would continue to be bound by this Policy unless and until it is amended.
We share your information with our parent, subsidiaries and joint ventures to help coordinate the Services we provide to you, enforce our Terms of Use and promote trust and safety.
We may share aggregate (non-personally identifiable) information with certain third parties such as advertisers, national industry organizations and prospective affiliates. In addition we reserve the right to disclose aggregate information and personally identifiable information to third parties as required or permitted by law and when we believe that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights.
Choice and Opt-Out
We provide you the opportunity to “opt-out” of having your personally identifiable information used for certain purposes when we ask for this information. For example, if you do not wish to receive marketing material from us, you can indicate your preference in the Site’s options area. If you no longer wish to receive our promotional communications, you may opt-out of receiving them by following the instructions included in each communication.
Third-Party Credit Card Processor
We use a third-party credit card processor to process credit card purchases made on our Site. To make this possible, your name, billing address and order total are shared via secure (encrypted) means with this third-party payment processor for the sole purpose of completing your order. Please note that your credit card information (number, expiration date, security code) is provided directly to the third-party credit card processor and is stored by such third-party credit card processor and not the Company, and as such, it is important to review the privacy policy of the third-party credit card processor prior to providing this information. The third-party credit card processor’s privacy policy will apply to the information you provide on the third-party credit card processor’s web site. You hereby acknowledge and agree that the Company is not affiliated in any way with the third-party credit card processor and that we have no responsibility or liability for the services provided by such third-party credit card processor or for the third-party credit card processor’s acts or omissions.
Use of Cookies
“Cookies” are simple text files stored on your computer for use by a browser. Certain Site features may only be available through the placement of a cookie.

We use cookies to compile aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction so that we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future. We set a persistent cookie to store how you came to the Site and what listings and Content (as defined in the Terms of Use) you view.

If you reject cookies you will still be able to view the Site, but your ability to use some areas of the Site, such as automatically-generated recommendations, will be limited. You will be unable to log into the Site if you reject cookies.
Some of our business partners (e.g., analytical tracking software providers) use cookies and tracking technologies on the Site. We have no access to or control over these cookies or tracking technologies. This Policy covers the use of cookies on the Sites and by us only and does not cover the use of cookies or tracking technologies by any such business partner.

The security of your account relies on your protection of your user name and password. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your user name and password. You are solely responsible for any and all activities that occur under your account. You may not share your password or user name with anyone. We will never ask you to send your password or other sensitive information to us in an email, though we may ask you to enter this type of information on the Site.
Any email or other communication requesting your password, asking you to provide sensitive account information via email or linking to a website that does not link to this Policy should be treated as unauthorized and suspicious and should be reported to us immediately at (805)-963-1841. If you do share your password with a third party for any reason, the third party will have access to your account and your personal information, and you may be responsible for actions taken using your password. If you believe someone else has obtained access to your password, please change it immediately by logging into your account on the Site and changing your Profile settings. If you believe that an unauthorized access has already occurred, please report it immediately at (805)-963-1841.
We may have access to your password and may use such password to access your account for debugging, quality assurance or other internal purposes.

You may review, correct, update or change your personally identifiable information on your account profile at any time. Simply log into your account, go to your Profile, review your personally identifiable information and, if you wish, edit it with the options provided.

The inclusion or access to Third Party Sites does not imply an endorsement thereof by the Company or of the provider of such content or services or of any third party web site.
