Personal data we may collect about you
When you place an order, we can only provide the products ordered by you if you provide us with your personal data. In order to bring our products and services to you we collect personal data about you, such as, your name, address information and email address.
We will use the information you provide for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy to which you agreed to at the time your data was obtained.

Security
We place great importance on the security of all personally-identifiable information associated with our users. We have security measures in place to attempt to protect against the loss, misuse and alteration of personal information under our control. We will use technical and organisational measures to safeguard your personal data, for example:
1. Access to your account is controlled by password and username which are unique to you;
2. We store your personal data on secure servers;
3. Payment details are encrypted using SSL technology.
You should bear in mind that submission of information over the Internet is never entirely secure. We cannot guarantee the security of information whilst it is in transit over the Internet and any such submission is at your own risk. All we can do is use all our reasonable efforts to safeguard your data and ensure that we maintain a reliable and safe environment to use your data. It is advisable to close your browser when you have finished your user session to help ensure others do not access your personal information. This is especially important if you use a shared computer or a computer in a public place.
Every time you log on to our Website your IP (Internet Protocol) address registers on our servers. Your IP address reveals no information other than the number assigned to you. We do not use this technology to get any personal data against your knowledge or free will (for example, we do not record any e-mail addresses of visitors). Nor do we use your IP address for any purpose other than to help us monitor traffic on our Website or (in case of criminal activity or misuse of our information) to cooperate with law enforcement.
