PRIVACY OVERVIEW
We are committed to protecting your privacy and using your information responsibly.
The information you provide us during checkout is used to fulfill your order and notify you of your order status. For individuals on our mailing list, we employ every available technology to ensure your confidential information remains secure.
Cookies
Cookies may be used to enable you to use certain website features and track how you use the website. Cookies are small data files that are automatically stored on your computer when you visit our websites. Cookies do not retain personally identifiable information such as your name, address or any financial information. Most internet browsers accept cookies. If you do not wish to have cookies on your computer, you can set your browser preferences to refuse them. Please consult your browser’s “help” section for instructions on how to disable cookies.
By using our website, you consent to our placement of cookies on your computer. You may occasionally get cookies from our business partners and other 3rd parties, in order to collect certain types of data, such as IP address, cookie identifiers and website activity, for targeted advertising purposes on our website and on other sites. If you wish to opt out of receiving targeted advertising, you may visit the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) website at http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) website at http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices and request to no longer receive internet-based advertising from 3rd parties that are DAA and NAI members. For those in Europe, you may visit the European Advertising Standards Alliance (EDAA) website at http://www.youronlinechoices.com/.
SSL
The security of your information is of the upmost importance to us. We use 128-bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL) technology to protect your online order information. SSL technology encryption ensures no one other than us can decode your information.
Your entire website experience is in secure mode. You can tell when you are in secure mode when the website address is preceded with “https” and, depending on your browser, you may see a padlock next to the website address as well. Some websites will switch to secure mode when a user starts checkout by replacing “http” with “https”. We have decided to make our entire website secure by replacing all of our pages with “https”.
Information We Collect
Your privacy is important to Us. It is Splits59’s policy to respect your privacy and comply with any applicable law and regulation regarding any personal information We may collect about users of the Site, “User(s), “You”, “Yourself”, or “Your”), including across the Site and other sites We own and operate.
Personal information is any information about You which can be used to identify You.
