How Do We Use The Information We Collect?

The information we collect about you in the course of our relationship is used to facilitate your orders or other activities between us, and to provide you with both general and tailored information about offers, products, services or other useful information from us or others.

We also may combine information you have provided to us in communications offline with the information you have given us online (or vice versa), to provide a more customized experience for you when you deal with us. We use demographic and site usage information collected from visitors to improve the usefulness of our site and to prepare aggregate, non-identifying, information used in marketing, site advertising, or similar activities.

In addition, such data may be stored on servers located in other jurisdictions. By providing us with your data, you consent to the transfer of such data.

As our services evolve, the types of information we collect may change. Please check this policy frequently for the most current explanation of our data practices.
