We value the trust you place in us. That’s why we insist upon the highest standards for

to learn about our information gathering and dissemination practices.
Note: Our privacy policy is subject to change at any time without notice. To make sure you
are aware of any changes, please review this policy periodically.
By visiting this Website you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Privacy
Policy. If you do not agree please do not use or access our Website.
By mere use of the Website, you expressly consent to our use and disclosure of your
personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. This Privacy Policy is
incorporated into and subject to the Terms of Use.
Collection of Personally Identifiable Information and other Information
When you use our Website, we collect and store your personal information which is
provided by you from time to time. Our primary goal in doing so is to provide you a safe,
efficient, smooth and customized experience. This allows us to provide services and
features that most likely meet your needs, and to customize our Website to make your
experience safer and easier. More importantly, while doing so we collect personal
information from you that we consider necessary for achieving this purpose.
In general, you can browse the Website without telling us who you are or revealing any
personal information about yourself. Once you give us your personal information, you are
not anonymous to us. Where possible, we indicate which fields are required and which
fields are optional. You always have the option to not provide information by choosing not
to use a particular service or feature on the Website. We may automatically track certain
information about you based upon your behaviour on our Website. We use this information
to do internal research on our users’ demographics, interests, and behaviour to better
understand, protect and serve our users. This information is compiled and analysed on an
aggregated basis. This information may include the URL that you just came from (whether
this URL is on our Website or not), which URL you next go to (whether this URL is on our
Website or not), your computer browser information, and your IP address. We use data
collection devices such as “cookies” on certain pages of the Website to help analyse our web
page flow, measure promotional effectiveness, and promote trust and safety. “Cookies” are
small files placed on your hard drive that assist us in providing our services. We offer
certain features that are only available through the use of a “cookie”. We also use cookies to
allow you to enter your password less frequently during a session. Cookies can also help us
provide information that is targeted to your interests. Most cookies are “session cookies,”
meaning that they are automatically deleted at the end of a session. You are always free to
decline our cookies if your browser permits, although in that case you may not be able to
use certain features on the Website and you may be required to re-enter your password
more frequently during a session.
Additionally, you may encounter “cookies” or other similar devices on certain pages of the
Website that are placed by third parties. We do not control the use of cookies by third
parties.
If you choose to buy on the Website, we collect information about your buying behaviour.
If you transact with us, we collect some additional information, such as a billing address, a
credit / debit card number and a credit / debit card expiration date and/or other payment
instrument details and tracking information from cheques or money orders.
If you choose to post messages on our message boards, chat rooms or other message areas
or leave feedback, we will collect that information you provide to us. We retain this
information as necessary to resolve disputes, provide customer support and troubleshoot
problems as permitted by law.
If you send us personal correspondence, such as emails or letters, or if other users or third
parties send us correspondence about your activities or postings on the Website, we may
collect such information into a file specific to you.
We collect personally identifiable information (email address, name, phone number, credit
card / debit card / other payment instrument details, etc.) from you when you set up a free
account with us. While you can browse some sections of our Website without being a
registered member, certain activities (such as placing an order) do require registration. We
do use your contact information to send you offers based on your previous orders and your

continue to store the data and use it for internal purposes to further improve our services.
