Our first priority is the privacy and security of your information. We operate our business and website with the highest privacy and security standards, allowing you to safely and securely browse our website, communicate with our staff, or initiate a purchase through our online shop. Our staff is thoroughly trained to handle your sensitive personal and billing information. Under no circumstances will we share, rent, lease, sell, or expose any of this information without first receiving your expressed written consent. Our privacy policy guidelines are strictly enforced so that you can have total peace of mind when using our website and any of its related services or features.
We do not collect any personally identifiable information about you when you visit our website. We do, however, operate an industry standard traffic analytics program that records your IP address and your IP location. Our web traffic analytics program also collects data about your browser, operating system (OS), screen settings, as well as information related to your browsing session and the duration of time spent on our site. This non-personally identifiable information is collected and analyzed in order to identify and correct any cross-platform compatibility issues that our website viewers may experience.
The only time that we'll collect personally identifiable information about you is when you contact our customer service staff or initiate a purchase through our website. The information collected may include your first and last name, postal address, email address, phone number, fax number, or other billing details. This information is only collected for communication or transaction processing purposes. By submitting personally identifiable information to our staff you consent to them using this information in accordance with our strict privacy policy guidelines.
Personally identifiable information collected from you is stored on highly advanced and secure data storage servers. These servers are not connected to the internet or any third party network. Access to these servers and their stored data is only granted to our trained customer service staff and administrative personnel. All server maintenance is conducted by in-house technicians, as third-party access is strictly forbidden for any reason. All of our data storage servers are housed in a designated area within our secure company office building.
When making a purchase through our online shop, our customer service staff may use your personally identifiable information to contact you about your specific order. We may also use this information to notify you regarding any website changes or policy updates that affect your order. Additionally, personally identifiable information related to product purchases is also periodically analyzed by our staff so that we can better understand how to improve the overall quality of our product catalog and ecommerce services. This information will never be used for unsolicited marketing purposes unless you have voluntarily signed up to our email subscription list.
Once a purchase has been initiated through our website, your personally identifiable information will be used to confirm that your identity matches the information submitted to our online payment processor. Our staff uses a very strict set of security guidelines to detect and prevent fraudulent orders and suspicious transactions. These strict security guidelines help to ensure that all orders placed through our website are being done so with the explicit consent of the account holder listed within the billing details. Any personally identifiable information associated with unauthorized transactions will be investigated by our staff and local law enforcement officials in accordance with all applicable laws.
