What Information We Collect.

Personally Identifiable Information.

Personally identifiable information is information that identifies you as an individual, such as your name.

We collect personally identifiable information that you submit to us through the Site. Personally identifiable information may include, but is not limited to:

We may also from time to time request additional information that is helpful or necessary for running the Site and providing products, services and information. You do not have to provide personally identifiable information to use the Site. In order for you to take advantage of particular opportunities provided through the Site, such as receipt of requested information or viewing of certain areas of the Site, we may require that you furnish personally identifiable information.

Non-Personally Identifiable Information.

Non-personally identifiable information is any information that does not reveal your specific identity. Non-personally identifiable information includes, but is not limited to:

When you use the Site, information is gathered from your Internet browser. This information may include log files (which allows us to determine the identity of your Internet Service Provider), your operating system and the type of browser software that you are using to access the Site.

The Site may use a standard technology called a "cookie", or web beacons or other similar technology to collect information about how you use the Site. Cookies reside on your computer and help the Site recognize your computer's browser as a previous visitor. In addition, on occasion the Site may also set a "session cookie" which helps us administer the Site. The session cookie expires when you close your browser and does not retain any information about you after it expires.

If you use a standard web browser, you should be able to modify your browser preference to provide you with choices relating to cookies; for example, you should have the choice to accept all cookies, to be notified when a cookie is set or to reject all cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may be unable to use certain Site services (e.g., those services that require you to log on to the Site). For more information on modifying your browser preference, please refer to the documentation accompanying your browser.

IP Addresses

Your IP address is a number that is automatically assigned to the computer that you are using by your internet service provider.

An IP address is identified and logged automatically in our server log files whenever a user visits the Site, along with the time of the visit and the page(s) that were visited. Collecting IP addresses is standard practice on the Internet and is done automatically by many web sites.

How We Use Information We Collect.

Personally Identifiable Information.

We may use your personally identifiable information to contact you when reasonably necessary and in the following ways:

  1. Fulfillment of Requests and Response to Inquiries. We may use personally identifiable information about you to fulfill the purpose for which such information was provided, such as to send brochures to you or process your transaction, to connect you with vendors when requested by you, who will provide you with information about products and services, and to respond to your inquiries.
  2. Administrative Communications. From time to time, in our sole discretion, we may use personally identifiable information about you to send to you important information regarding the Site, changes to our terms, conditions and policies and/or other administrative information. Because this information may be important, you may not opt-out of receiving such communications.
  3. Marketing Communications. From time to time, we may use personally identifiable information about you to personalize your experience with the Site by informing you of products, programs, events, services and promotions of us, our affiliates, our partners and/or third parties that we believe may be of interest to you. If you would prefer that we do not send electronic marketing messages to you, please see the "Opt-In/Opt-Out Policy" section below. We do not sell our email lists.
  4. Purchases. When you make a purchase from us, we may use personally identifiable information about you in order to fulfill your purchase, for example, to process your payments, communicate with you regarding your purchase or provide you with related customer service. We may use your contact information to verify and authorize the use of your credit or debit card for services and/or products for which you have registered, requested or ordered.
  5. Internal Business Purposes. We may also use personally identifiable information about you for our internal business purposes, such as data and trend analysis, market studies, audits, developing new products and services, enhancing the Site, identifying usage trends and determining the effectiveness of any promotional campaigns.
  6. Voluntarily Disclosed Information. Without limiting the generality of anything in the Terms of Use, because we reserve the right to use content created or provided by you in connection with our chat room, forum, message board or news groups, to the extent that you include personally identifiable information in such content, we may use such personally identifiable information, as part of the content, in connection with the Site and promotion thereof.
  7. In Compliance with Applicable Law. We may use personally identifiable information about you in the event that we believe, in our sole discretion, that such action is reasonably necessary to screen against government databases in compliance with export control regulations, to comply with government requests or court orders; to enforce the Terms of Use or other published guidelines; to protect ourselves, our users or others; to respond to circumstances that we feel constitute an emergency; to allow us to pursue available remedies or limit the damages we may sustain; or as otherwise required or permitted by applicable laws, rules or regulations. Please be aware that, in connection with the foregoing, we may use information about you gathered through other sites controlled, owned or operated by us or our affiliates to the extent permitted under the applicable privacy policy governing collection and use of such information.

Non-Personally Identifiable Information.

We may use non-personally identifiable information to measure the number of visits, average time spent on the Site and pages viewed as well as to diagnose problems with our servers and to administer the Site. We may then use this information to analyze and improve the features and functionality of the Site.

Because non-personally identifiable information does not personally identify you, we may use and disclose non-personally identifiable information for any purpose. In some instances, we may combine non-personally identifiable information with personally identifiable information (such as combining your name with your geographic location). If we combine any non-personally identifiable information with personally identifiable information, we will treat the combined information as personally identifiable information as long as it is combined.

IP Addresses

We use IP addresses for purposes such as calculating Site usage levels, helping diagnose server problems, and administering the Site. We may also use and disclose IP addresses for all the purposes for which we use and disclose personally identifiable information. Please note that we treat IP addresses, server log files and related information as non-personally identifiable information, except where we are required to do otherwise under applicable laws, rules or regulations. Where IP Address information is incorporated into electronic signature technology, we view this as combined and treat it as personally identifiable.

How We Disclose Your Personally Identifiable Information.

We may disclose your personally identifiable information to third parties, to the extent permitted by law, in the following ways:

  1. Affiliates and Partners. We may share personally identifiable information about you with our affiliates and partners so that they may use such information for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. A partial list of our affiliates and partners includes Salesforce, EchoSign, Google Checkout and Google Analytics.

We may, from time to time, work with third parties who provide services including but not limited to data analysis, information verification, payment processing, web site hosting, auditing services, order fulfillment, infrastructure provision, IT services, customer service, e-mail delivery services, electronic signature document exchange and other similar services. We may share personally identifiable information about you with such third parties for the purpose of enabling such third parties to provide such services (for example, if you choose to make a purchase through the Site, we may share your personally identifiable information with our third party service providers to fulfill your purchase, including, without limitation, to ship products to you).
  3. Third Party Marketing Communications. We may share personally identifiable information about you with our affiliates, partners or other third parties to allow them to contact you regarding products, programs, services and promotions that we and/or they believe may be of interest to you.

We may also share personally identifiable information about you if you request information from vendors so that they can provide you with the requested information. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR ANY THIRD PARTY'S USE OF YOUR PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION.
  4. Purchases. When you make a purchase from us, we may disclose your personally identifiable information, as necessary, to fulfill your purchase.

  5. Voluntarily Disclosed Information. Without limiting the generality of anything in the Terms of Use, because we reserve the right to use content created or provided by you in connection with our chat room, forum, message board or news groups, to the extent that you include personally identifiable information in such content, we may republish or otherwise disclose such personally identifiable information, as part of the content, in connection with the Site and promotion thereof. If we republish or otherwise disclose your content, we may also publish or disclose your member name to provide authorship credit. Please be aware that when you disclose personally identifiable information in a chat room, forum, message board or news groups on the Site, the information may become public and accessible to all or a part of the Site community and can in turn be used by third parties in any manner and for any purpose, so it is important for you to exercise discretion and appropriate caution when deciding to reveal personal information on the Site. In the event that you encounter any Site user who you believe is improperly collecting or using information about you or other users, please notify us immediately by contacting us in accordance with the "Contact Us" section below.

  7. In Compliance with Applicable Law. We may disclose personally identifiable information about you in the event that we believe, in our sole discretion, that such disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with government requests or court orders; to enforce the Terms of Use or other published guidelines; to protect ourselves, our users or others; to respond to circumstances that we feel constitute an emergency; to allow us to pursue available remedies or limit the damages we may sustain; or as otherwise required or permitted by applicable laws, rules or regulations.

Children's Personal Information.

Consistent with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act:

To the extent that we are aware that any user of the Site is under the age of 13, this Site does NOT collect, use, or disclose personally identifiable information (including online contact information) of children under the age of 13. In the event that a child under the age of 13 attempts to register or make a purchase on the Site and we are aware of such child's age, we will NOT accept the registration and will delete information received from the child. In the event that a child posts personal information in a public forum such as a chat room, we will attempt to delete that information once we become aware of the age of the child who makes such a posting.

Security Precautions.

We employ reasonable security measures consistent with standard industry practices, for information collected through the Site. For instance, we have measures and tools, such as firewalls, in place to help protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of the information under our control, and usernames and passwords submitted by users of the Site are encrypted using Secure Sockets Layer or other encryption mechanisms. However, you should exercise discretion with respect to the submission of any personally identifiable information to the Site. Transmitting information via the Internet is never completely secure and, therefore, any information submitted may be intercepted, collected, used or disclosed by third parties. We ask that you do not send us credit or debit card information or other sensitive information on or through the Site or otherwise, unless requested by us or the Site to fulfill your purchase, process your request, or respond to your inquiry. We cannot, and do not, guarantee that information supplied by users will not be accessed on our servers, or intercepted, collected, used or disclosed by others while being transmitted to or from the Site over the Internet. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT ANY INFORMATION YOU TRANSMIT THROUGH THE SITE OR UPLOAD FOR STORAGE IN CONNECTION WITH THE SITE IS SO TRANSMITTED OR STORED AT YOUR OWN RISK.

If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that the security of any account you might have with us has been compromised), please immediately notify us by contacting us in accordance with the "Contact Us" section below.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of web sites that are not owned and operated by us, including such sites' use of any information (such as IP number, browser type or operating system) collected when visitors to the Site click through links to those web sites.
