Collecting Information About You
In general, you can visit many of our web pages without telling us who you are
or revealing any personal information about yourself. We may track the Internet
domain address from which people visit us and analyze this data for trends and
statistics, but individual users will remain anonymous, unless you voluntarily
tell us who you are.
There may be times (such as when you purchase or order a product, subscribe to
a service, register to receive catalogs, or to participate in contests, sweepstakes
or promotions, etc.) at which we ask you to provide certain information about
yourself, such as your name, shipping/billing address, telephone number, email
address, credit card information, birth date, gender, occupation, personal interests,
etc. We also maintain a record of your online product purchases. Whether or not
to provide such information is completely your own choice. But if you choose
not to provide the information we request, you may be unable to purchase products,
or access certain services, offers and content on our web site.
Using Information About You
We use the personally identifiable information you provide for internal purposes,
such as confirming and tracking your order, subscription or registration, analyzing
trends and statistics, informing you of our new products, services and offers,
and providing you with information from and about Lineva, LLC. From time to time
we might establish a business relationship with other persons or entities whom
we believe trustworthy and whom we have asked to confirm that their privacy policies
are consistent with ours. These are known as our Select Partners. In such cases
we might share and cross-reference information, including personally identifiable
information about you, that will enable such persons or entities to contact you
regarding products and services that may be of interest to you.
To serve you better, we may combine information you give us online, in our stores
or through our catalogs. We may also combine that information with publicly available
information and information we receive from or cross-reference with our Select
Partners and others. We use that combined information to enhance and personalize
your shopping experience with us, to communicate with you about our products
and events that may be of interest to you, and for other promotional purposes.
We may contract with companies or persons to provide certain services including
credit card processing, shipping, data management, promotional services, etc.
We call them our Service Providers. We provide our Service Providers with the
information needed for them to perform these services. We also ask our Service
Providers to confirm that their privacy practices are consistent with ours.
Although unlikely, in certain instances we may disclose your personally identifiable
information when we have reason to believe that it is necessary to identify,
contact or bring legal action against persons or entities who may be causing
injury to you, to Lineva, LLC or to others. We may also disclose your personally
identifiable information when we believe the law requires it.
Editing, Updating, Correcting and Deleting Information About You
We want to communicate with you only if you want to hear from us. If you prefer
not to receive information from us or from our Select Partners please let us
know by calling us at 1.888.454.6382 or by sending us an email. Please be sure
to include your email address, full name, and specifically what information you
do not want to receive. If you would like to update or correct your email address,
street address or other personal information with us please contact us the same
way.
Please note that sometimes these requests may take up to 6-8 weeks to be effective,
particularly if we are removing your name from postal mailings. In addition,
when you purchase from us online or through our catalogs, or when you choose
to enter a sweepstakes or other promotion, we may need to contact you via phone,
email or mail to address questions or issues specific to your order, entry, etc.,
even if you have opted to not receive communications.
Please remember, if you delete certain information you may not be able to continue
to purchase products or access other portions of our web site without entering
additional information.
You can request a description of the types of customer information we may share
with others and a list of the entities with which we may have shared customer
information in the preceding calendar year, by sending an email to us.
Protecting Children
Lineva, LLC take special care to protect the safety and privacy of children.
Our web sites are general audience sites. We do not permit anyone under the age
of 13 to register with us. We also do not send email correspondence to anyone
who tells us that they are under the age of 13 without their parent's consent.
Children under the age of 13 should always ask their parents or guardians for
permission before providing any personal information to anyone online. We urge
parents and guardians to participate in their children's online activities and
use parental control or other web filtering technology to supervise children's
access to the web.
Cookies
Our web sites use "cookies." A cookie is a small amount of
data that is sent to your browser from a web server and stored on your
computer's hard
drive. Generally, we use cookies to remind us of who you are, tailor our products
and services to suit your personal interests, estimate our audience size, assist
our online merchants to track visits to and sales at their stores and to process
your order, track your status in our promotions, contests and sweepstakes, and/or
analyze your visiting patterns. You can generally set your browser to not accept
cookies or to notify you when you are sent a cookie, giving you the chance to
decide whether or not to accept it.
We may contract with third parties who may use cookies and collect information
on our behalf. These third parties are prohibited by our contract with them from
sharing that information with anyone other than us or our Service Providers.
However, we respect your right to choose whether to be included in such services.
Security
We use sophisticated encryption and authentication tools to protect the security
of your personal information that you share with us. Unfortunately, however,
no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As
a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee
or warrant the security of any information you transmit to or from our web sites,
and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we will do
our best to protect its security on our systems.
We urge you to keep your password in a safe place and not to divulge it to anyone.
Also remember to sign off your account and close your browser window when you
have finished your visit. This is to ensure that others cannot access your account,
especially if you are sharing a computer with someone else or are using a computer
in a public place such as a library or Internet cafe.
Links to Third Party Sites
Our web sites may contain links to web sites operated and maintained by third
parties, over which we have no control. Privacy policies on such linked sites
may be different from our privacy policy. You access such linked sites at your
own risk. You should always read the privacy policy of a linked site before disclosing
any personal information on such site.
Policy Changes
If we decide to change our privacy policy in whole or in part, we will inform
you by posting a notice on our web site. Those changes will go into effect on
the date posted in the notice. The new policy will apply to all current and past
users of our web site and will replace any prior policies that are inconsistent.
This policy was posted in January 2005.
