How do we protect
visitor information?
We implement a variety of security
measures to maintain the safety of
your personal information. Your personal
information is contained behind secured
networks and is only accessible by
a limited number of persons who have
special access rights to such systems,
and are required to keep the information
confidential. When you place orders
or access your personal information,
we offer the use of a secure server.
All sensitive/credit information you
supply is transmitted via Secure Socket
Layer (SSL) technology and then encrypted
into our databases to be only accessed
as stated above.
Do we use
"cookies"?
Yes. Cookies are small files that
a site or its service provider transfers
to your computer's hard drive through
your Web browser (if you allow) that
enables the site's or service provider's
systems to recognize your browser
and capture and remember certain information.
For instance, we use cookies to help
us remember and process the items
in your shopping cart. They are also
used to help us understand your preferences
based on previous or current site
activity, which enables us to provide
you with improved services. We also
use cookies to help us compile aggregate
data about site traffic and site interaction
so that we can offer better site experiences
and tools in the future.
We may contract with third-party
service providers to assist us in
better understanding our site visitors.
These service providers are not permitted
to use the information collected on
our behalf except to help us conduct
and improve our business.
You can choose to have your computer
warn you each time a cookie is being
sent, or you can choose to turn off
all cookies. You do this through your
browser (like Netscape Navigator or
Internet Explorer) settings. Each
browser is a little different, so
look at your browser Help menu to
learn the correct way to modify your
cookies. If you turn cookies off,
you won't have access to many features
that make your site experience more
efficient and some of our services
will not function properly. However,
you can still place orders over the
telephone by contacting customer service.
Do we disclose
the information we collect to outside
parties?
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise
transfer to outside parties your
personally identifiable information
unless we provide you with advance
notice, except as described below.
The term "outside parties"
does not include apparelrack.com.
It also does not include website
hosting partners and other parties
who assist us in operating our website,
conducting our business, or servicing
you, so long as those parties agree
to keep this 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 ours
or others' rights, property, or
safety.
However, non-personally identifiable
visitor information may be provided
to other parties for marketing, advertising,
or other uses.

you opt-out, remove or modify information
