The information we collect

Unless login is required, you can browse this site without telling us who you are or revealing any personal information about yourself. Certain features and services require that you register and supply some information that allows us to identify you. We also collect some information automatically from your computer, such as where you go on the site and what you do there. We typically collect your IP address, computer and connection information, browser type and version, operating system and platform, the URLs you come from and go to next, and a cookie number.

If you register here, or if your business is pre-registered in order for us to provide a service to a parent organisation, we will collect and store your e-mail address and a password. You may also be asked to provide additional personal information such as:

  • Your first and last name.
  • Fulfillment information, including a physical mailing address and telephone number.
  • Transaction and payment information, including credit card number and billing address.
  • Other information that allows us to personalise your visits to our website.

We may also acquire information about you if, for example, you contact customer support or respond to a survey.

  • Communicate with you about your orders and other administrative issues.
  • Measure and improve our website and our services.
  • Resolve disputes, address complaints and troubleshoot technical problems.
  • Analyse site and user behavior and prepare aggregated reports.

Sharing and Disclosure

We may disclose information under the good-faith belief that such disclosure is necessary under applicable law, to comply with legal process served on us, to protect the property or interests of ourselves, our agents and employees, or to protect personal safety or the public.

Public Content

Some portions of our website may allow you to contribute ratings, comments, reviews and other content to the site. Unless an option is provided, this content is displayed publicly along with your name or username. Other members may be able to receive email notifications of your new public content, or publish their own comments in response. We may use this content to develop aggregate ratings, personalise site views and market products. We may also promote the most popular or highest rated reviews and members. We reserve the right to moderate any submission of public content and it should not be assumed that it will appear verbatim.
