Information Collection, Use and Sharing

We are the sole owners of the information collected on this site. We only have access to/collect information that you voluntarily give us via email, web forms or other direct contact from you. We will not sell or rent this information to anyone.

We will use your information to respond to you, regarding the reason you contacted us. We will not share your information with any third party outside of our organization, other than as necessary to fulfill your request, e.g. to ship an order.

Unless you ask us not to, we may contact you via email in the future to tell you about new products or services, special offers or changes to this privacy policy. In the event that we do contact you via email to inform you of products/services or company information, you will always have the right and the ability to opt out of these mailings either by contacting us in writing or simply following the instructions provided within the email distributed.

In some instances, we may use an outside shipping company to ship orders, or a partner company to assemble/package and ship products. These companies do not share, store or use personally identifiable information for any secondary purposes beyond filling your order.

Cookies

For instance, when we use a cookie to identify you, you would not have to log in a password more than once, thereby saving time while on our site. Cookies can also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our site. Usage of a cookie is in no way linked to any personally identifiable information on our site.

Some of our business partners may use cookies on our site (for example: advertising partners). However, we have no access to, or control over these cookies.
