Gathering and
Sharing of Information, Links to External and Co-Branded
Websites
We monitor traffic
patterns on the Site and gather broad demographic information
for aggregate use to analyze trends and administer the Site in
order to improve its layout and design and to permit Site
personalization and streamlining to create the best shopping
experience we can for our users. In order to perform analysis
permitting such personalization and improvement of site design
and user experience, we may employ suitable third parties with
whom we share the information necessary to accomplish these
objectives. These statistics include no personally identifying
information.
Where appropriate,
we share aggregated statistical information with our business
partners. These statistics include no personally identifying
information.
We use a credit
card processing company to bill purchasers of goods and services
from the Site, and depending upon the goods and services being
ordered and where they are being shipped, we may also use
outside suppliers and/or delivery companies to assist us in
fulfilling and delivering orders. We share with them the
information necessary to enable such card processing,
fulfillment, and delivery of goods (i.e. ? name, address, and as
appropriate, payment information).
We may provide
personal identifying and account information in special cases
such as enforcement of our Terms of Site Use, or as required by
law or legal process to protect and defend the rights and safety
of our Site and its users. This includes exchanging information
with other companies for purposes of fraud and credit risk
reduction.

Security
Information
Strong precautions
are taken to protect the information of the users of our Site.
When users submit sensitive information via the Site, that
Information is protected both online and off-line.
We take credit card
information security seriously and use a variety of technical
solutions to make shopping safe at our Site. Furthermore, your
information is encrypted and is protected utilizing the industry
standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption software. 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
protect user- information off-line. All of the information of
our Site's users, including the sensitive information mentioned
above, is maintained in a restricted section in our offices.
Only those of our employees who need the information to perform
a specific job (for example, our account or customer service
representatives) are granted access to personally identifiable
information. Furthermore, our employees are kept up-to-date on
our security and privacy practices.
If you have any questions about the
security at our Site, you can send an e-mail to
