We use the information that you actively provide to:

C. Sharing and Disclosure of Information

We may share or disclose the information you provide, including name and contact details in the following instances:

 

1.    To fulfill a service to you. For example, if you choose to purchase an item from the Site, we may share your personally identifiable information to fulfill your order and complete your purchase. In addition, if you email us a question, we may use your email address to process your request and respond to your question. Also, if you are entering a sweepstakes or contest, we may use your personally identifiable information to fulfill the terms of that promotion. This means that we may share the information for prize fulfillment purposes or mail carriers. We also may share your information with the co-sponsor of that promotion. 

 

2.    To unaffiliated third-party service providers, agents or independent contractors who help us maintain our Site and provide other administrative services to us (including, but not limited to, order processing and fulfillment, providing customer service, maintaining, and analyzing data, sending customer communications on our behalf, and entry collection, winner selection and prize fulfillment for contests, sweepstakes, and other promotions). We seek to ensure that these unaffiliated third parties will not use the personally identifiable information for any other purpose than to provide the administrative services for which they are responsible. Because such unaffiliated third-party service providers that help us administer our Site will have access to users' personally identifiable information, if you do not wish for our unaffiliated third-party service providers to have access to your information, please do not register or submit any personally identifiable information to us.

 

3.    To complete your purchase. If you choose to make a purchase on the Site, we may collect from you your credit card number, billing address and other information related to such purchase, and we may use such collected information to fulfill your purchase. We may also provide such information, or other personally identifiable information provided by you, to unaffiliated third parties as necessary to complete your purchase (for example, to process your credit card).

 

4.    To comply with the law or in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to conform to the requirements of law or comply with legal process served on us, protect and/or defend our rights or property or act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of our end users.

 

5.    To third parties as part of any corporate reorganization process including, but not limited to, mergers, acquisitions, and sales of all or substantially all our assets. 

 

6.    To track and analyze non-identifying and aggregate usage and volume statistical information from our visitors and customers and provide such information to third parties.

 

7.    To protect against potential fraud, we may verify with third parties the information collected from the Site. During such verification, we may receive personally identifiable information about you

 

8.    If you use a credit card or debit card to purchase services with us, we may use card authorization and fraud screening services to verify that your card information and address matches the information that you supplied to us, and that the card has not been reported as lost or stolen.

 

9.    When you click on links on our Site, they may direct you away from our Site. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites and encourage you to read their privacy statements.
