Cookies
Similar to other commercial websites, the technology called
"cookies" may be used to provide you with tailored
information. A cookie is a small piece of data that a
website can send to your browser, which may then be stored
on your hard drive so we can recognize you when you return.
You may be able to set your browser to notify you when you
receive a cookie. Our cookies collect general information
that enhances our ability to serve you and measure the
utility of our website.
Information Security
We believe that keeping personal information secure is one
of our most significant responsibilities. We restrict access
to Personal Information about you to those employees and
others who need to know that information to assist us in our
business, or to provide products or services to you. We
safeguard personal information, according to established
security standards and procedures, by maintaining physical,
electronic, and procedural safeguards for the information.
When we request customers to enter sensitive information
(such as the credit card number), it is encrypted and
protected with the best encryption software in the industry
-- SSL. While on a secure page, such as our order form, the
lock icon at the bottom of web browsers, such as Netscape
Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer becomes locked, as
opposed to unlocked, or open, when you are just 'surfing'.
All of our customers' 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 billing clerk, or a customer
service representative) are granted access to personally
identifiable information. |
