1. Types of Information Collected.

The type of information we collect depends on how you use this Site. We collect two types of information about our users: Personally Identifiable Information (PII) you provide to us voluntarily and Non-Personally Identifiable Information.

1.1 Personally Identifiable Information: refers to information that lets us know the specifics of who you are. You may voluntarily provide certain personally identifiable information to us when you (a) register with us for an Event, Group, online access to your Account Profile, (b) register your email address with us, or opt-in to receive newsletters, (c) send email messages or feedback, submit forms or transmit other information by email; (d) submit your credit card or other payment information when making online contributions, payments for products and services on our Site; or (e) complete a survey. It is completely optional for you to engage in these activities. If you elect to engage in these activities, however, we may ask that you provide us personal information, such as your first and last name, mailing address (including zip code), email address, telephone and facsimile numbers, credit card type and number, credit card security code, and other personally identifiable information. Depending upon the activity, some of the information we ask you to provide is identified as mandatory and some as voluntary. If you do not provide the mandatory data with respect to a particular activity, you will not be able to engage in that activity.

1.2 Non-Personally Identifiable Information: refers to information that does not by itself identify you as a specific individual, which may include information the computer or device that you used to access the Site, such as IP address, geolocation information, unique device identifiers, browser type, browser language or other information of this nature. We may also collect certain non-personally identifiable information about you based upon how you search the Site, including which pages you view and products or services you request while visiting our Site. For system administration and statistical analysis purposes, this information is compiled and analyzed on both a personal and an aggregated basis to track access to the Site. This information may include the Web Site’s Uniform Resource Locator (“URL”) that you just came from, which URL you next go to, general geographic location, device type, what browser you are using, internet service provider, date/time of visit information, operating system, and your Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, which tells us the country and state you are searching our Site from. A URL is the global address of documents and other resources on the World Wide Web. At no time do we disclose Site usage by individual IP addresses. Web serve logs are retained on a temporary basis and then deleted from our systems.

2. Collection Methods and Use of Information

We do not collect any Personally Identifiable Information about you unless you voluntarily provide it to us when asked on our Site. You will have the chance to review the information you submit before completing any request, entry form, or registration form. We use your Personally Identifiable Information to provide our services to you as required by our agreements with you, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our agreements with you, including our Terms of Use and this Policy.

Please text “Stop” to the number listed below to opt-out of receiving additional text messaging services from us. We also may enlist a third-party service provider to collect, store, process, and manage certain Non-Personally Identifiable Information. We use your Non-Personally Identifiable Information to diagnose problems with our servers and software, administer our Site, and gather and analyze demographic and other statistical information. Our third-party service providers may also provide us with summary, but not individual reports that will tell us how our Site is being used. We may also share such aggregate statistical and demographic information with select third parties, however, these reports do not contain any Personally Identifiable Information.

3. Release of Information

We do not sell any of your Personal Identifiable Information, including your name, mailing address, email address, or phone number, to any companies. We do provide some of our services through contractual arrangements with affiliates, services providers, and other third parties that require us to share your Personal Identifiable Information with them in order to deliver those services. For example, we may release your address information to the delivery service to deliver products that you ordered; and provide order information to third parties that help us provide customer service. We encourage our service providers to adopt and post privacy policies. However, the use of your Personally Identifiable Information by our service providers is governed by their privacy policies and is not subject to our control. Occasionally we may be required by law enforcement or judicial authorities to provide Personally Identifiable Information to the appropriate governmental authorities. We will disclose Personally Identifiable Information upon receipt of a court order, subpoena, or to cooperate with a law enforcement investigation. We fully cooperate with law enforcement agencies in identifying those who use our services for illegal activities. We reserve the right to report to law enforcement agencies any activities that we in good faith believe to be unlawful.
