Overall privacy statement
We take your privacy seriously. Because we gather certain types of information about our users we want to help you understand the terms and conditions surrounding the collection and use of that information. This privacy statement discloses the types of information we gather, how we use it, and how to correct or change it. These privacy practices apply to the Web site that you were viewing when you clicked through to this policy, which is operated by us directly.

1. What information do we collect?
Our primary goal in collecting personal information is to provide you with the best and most useful content and services. 

We collect personally identifiable information when you provide it to us or when you purchase items from our online store. Once you register with our site you are no longer anonymous to us. We may also receive information about you from other sources and add it to the information you provided to us.

2. What is our practice regarding cookies?
Your Internet browser has a feature called "cookies" which stores small amounts of data on your computer about your visit to any web site. You do not need to have cookies turned on to visit most of our site, although purchasing items from areas of our site may require cookies. Cookies alone tell us nothing about who you are unless you specifically give us personally identifiable information. You may elect not to allow cookies to be collected by adjusting your settings on your browser.

We use cookies and tracking technologies, including:

• Saving your password so you don't have to re-enter it each time you visit our online store.
