We are committed to protecting our users' privacy. Keeping the
information you share with us on the site, secure and ensuring your
understanding of how we collect, use and maintain your information is
important to us at NCGstock. We maintain physical, electronic and
procedural safeguards to protect your information and while no data
transmission over the Internet is 100% secure from intrusion, we have
used and will continue to use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure
the protection of your information. We continually assess new
technology for protecting information and, when appropriate, we upgrade
our information security systems.
Personally Identifiable Information:
When we use the term "personally identifiable information" we
mean information such as your full name, street address, town or city,
state, zip code, telephone number, date of birth, e-mail address, IP
address and any other information that would allow someone to identify
you or contact you. Personally identifiable information also includes
information about your transactions or relationship with us, if you
have been a customer or you have provided this type of information. For
example, if you make a purchase on our site, in addition to your name
and contact information, we will also collect and maintain your billing
address, Image selections, your order number and information about your
computer's internet address and web site which may have referred or
directed you to the site (e.g., the referring URL). We collect this and
other information to fill your order, to communicate with you about
your order and to send you promotional materials.
We collect personally identifiable information about
you when you visit the site and input information, whether you are
registering to use the site, enrolling or signing up for features and
functions, participating in promotions, ordering or purchasing or in
the course of any other exchanges of information, transactions and
activities. We may use the information we obtain from you, including
personally identifiable information, to tailor your experience on the
site, to display content we think may be of interest to you, or to let
us customize what you see when you visit the site according to your
preferences.
Some features and functions of the site require you
to register or obtain our permission before you can use them - for
security, identification and marketing reasons, among others - and as
part of that process we may ask you to provide us with certain
personally identifiable information. In addition, during the
registration process we will also ask you to select (or we may provide)
a user login and password (we will allow you to change your password,
as well as any personally identifiable information you have given us in
order to keep this information current and accurate). Among other
things, this information helps us securely identify you as a registered
or permitted user of those features and functions.
The personally identifiable information you provide
to us, as well as any information, personal or otherwise, that you
create and which may be saved on or in association with the site, is
used to provide you with better service. It allows us to save you time
and money and better understand your needs. It also helps us help you
learn more about your preferences and those goods and services that may
be of interest to you. For example, we track your information to assist
us in confirming and filling orders, producing reports, maintaining
quality control, administering and managing the site and our business,
and, whenever it may become necessary or appropriate, to contact you
concerning your orders, your transactions or any other activities
associated with the site. We may use your personally identifiable
information to advise you of goods or services which may be available
from NCGstock, its suppliers and/or advertisers. If you are a
registered user, you also acknowledge, understand and hereby agree that
you are giving us your consent to track your activities and your use of
