What Information We Collect
The information we collect on our site generally falls into the following two categories: Personally Identifiable Information and Non-Personally Identifiable Information.
Personally Identifiable Information: This refers to information that lets us know the specifics of who you are. The Personally Identifiable Information we collect when you use our Site may include your name, mailing address, phone number, and e-mail address. We request Personally Identifiable Information when you participate in certain promotional activities, place orders with us, and correspond with us.
Non-Personally Identifiable Information: This refers to information that does not by itself identify a specific individual. The Non-Personally Identifiable data we collect when you visit our site may include the Uniform Resource Locator ("URL") of the Web site that you visited directly prior to coming to our site, which pages you visit on our site, which URL you visit next, which browser you used to enter our site, your Internet Protocol ("IP") address, and any search terms entered on our site.
We do not associate the Personally Identifiable Information with the Non-Personally Identifiable Information collected on our site.
Why We Collect Your Information
Our primary goals in collecting information are to provide customers with exceptional service and to provide all visitors an efficient, and personalized experience while using our site. For example, if you request information on our site, we use your Personally Identifiable Information to supply the requested information. We use Non-Personally Identifiable Information on an aggregated basis to analyze customer behavior to help us understand how visitors use our site and to measure interest in the various pages. We use this information to improve the content of our site, to make it easier to use, and to customize our advertising.
We may need to request specific information from you to help us confirm your identity and make sure you can exercise any of your rights hereunder. This is a security measure to ensure that Personal Data is not disclosed to any person who has no right to receive it. We may also contact you to ask you for further information in relation to your request to speed up our response.
We try to respond to all legitimate requests within one month. Occasionally it may take us longer than a month if your request is particularly complex or you have made a number of requests. In this case, we will notify you and keep you updated.

Contractual Necessity: Where we need to perform a contract(such as order fulfillment) we are about to enter into or have entered into with you.
Legitimate Interests: Where it is necessary for our legitimate interests, and your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests (for example, providing and improving our services, administering our relationship with you and our business, marketing and growing our business, and in order to exercise our rights and responsibilities).
Compliance with Law: Where we need to comply with a legal or regulatory obligation (for example, preventing and detecting crime, and assisting police and other authorities with their investigations).
Vital Interests: Where it is necessary to protect your vital interests or those of another person (for example, where we know or have reason to believe that you or another person may suffer harm).
In circumstances where you have a genuine choice as to whether we should process your Personal Data, we will ask you for your consent. The method used to obtain your consent will depend on the scope and context of the processing that we propose.
