What Information Do We Collect?
We gather details from you when you create an account, buy something, join a contest or sweepstakes, complete a survey, reply to an e-mail or other message, or take part in another feature of the site. During ordering or registration we may request your name, e-mail address, mailing address, phone number, credit card details, or similar data. You are welcome to browse the site without identifying yourself.
We also collect information about gift recipients so that gift purchases can be fulfilled. Details gathered about gift recipients are never used for marketing.
As with most websites, we rely on cookies to improve your experience and to learn about visitors and their visits. See the cookies section below for details.
How Do We Use Your Information?
Information collected when you register, purchase products, enter a contest or promotion, respond to a survey or marketing message, browse the site, or use other features may be used to:
- Tailor your site experience and present content and product offers that match your interests.
- Serve you better when you contact us with customer service requests.
- Process your transactions quickly.
- Run contests, promotions, surveys, and other site features.
If you have opted in to our e-mail newsletter, we may send you periodic e-mails. If you no longer wish to receive promotional e-mail, follow the instructions in the opt-out section below. If you have not opted in, you will not receive these e-mails. Visitors who register or use features such as marketing programs and members-only content will be asked whether they want to join our e-mail list and receive communications from us.
How Do We Protect Visitor Information?
We apply a range of security measures to keep your personal information safe. Your details sit behind secured networks and can be reached only by a small number of people who hold special access rights and are obligated to keep the information confidential. When you place orders or access your personal information, we offer a secure server. All sensitive and credit information you provide is transmitted using Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology and then encrypted into our databases, accessible only as described above.
Do We Use Cookies?
Yes. Cookies are small files that a site or its service provider places on your computer's hard drive through your web browser (if you allow it), letting the site or provider's systems recognize your browser and capture and remember certain information. For example, cookies help us remember and process the items in your shopping cart. They also help us understand your preferences based on past or current site activity, which lets us improve our services. Cookies additionally help us compile aggregate data about site traffic and interaction so we can offer better site experiences and tools in the future.
We may work with third-party service providers to help us better understand our visitors. These providers may not use the information collected on our behalf for anything other than helping us run and improve our business.
You can set your computer to warn you each time a cookie is sent, or you can turn off all cookies through your browser settings (such as Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer). Browsers differ slightly, so check your browser's Help menu for the correct way to change cookie settings. If you disable cookies, you will lose access to many features that make the site efficient and some services may not work properly. You can still place orders by telephone by contacting customer service.
Do We Disclose the Information We Collect to Outside Parties?
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personally identifiable information to outside parties without giving you advance notice, except as described here. The term "outside parties" does not include Video Electronics, nor does it include website hosting partners and other parties who help us operate our website, conduct our business, or serve you, provided those parties agree to keep the information confidential. We may also release your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect the rights, property, or safety of ourselves or others.
Non-personally identifiable visitor information may, however, be shared with other parties for marketing, advertising, or other uses.
How Can You Opt Out, Remove, or Modify Information You Have Provided to Us?
To change your e-mail subscriptions, update your preferences in the My Account section. Because of e-mail production schedules, you may still receive messages already in production.
To delete all of your online account information from our database, sign in to the My Account section and remove your shipping addresses, billing addresses, and payment information. We may retain information about an individual sales transaction in order to service that transaction and for record keeping.
