We collect personal information from our website visitors on a
voluntary basis. Personal information may include name, title,
company, address, phone number, email address, and other relevant
data. Questions or comments submitted by visitors may also include
personal information. We do not require personal information to
obtain access to most of our site. We do, however, require it to
access our online stock and take advantage of certain other
features of our site.
We use the information that visitors provide for such purposes
as processing and responding to requests, improving our
operations, and communicating with visitors about our products,
services and businesses.
Our web server also automatically collects
non-personally-identifiable information such as the domain name of
the site providing the visitor with Internet access, but not the
visitor's user name. Other examples of information collected by
our server include the Internet protocol (IP) address used to
connect the visitor's computer to the Internet, the visitor's
browser type and version, operating system and platform, the
average time spent on our site, pages viewed, information searched
for, access times and other relevant statistics. We use this
information in the aggregate to measure the use of our site and to
administer and improve our site.
To the extent required or permitted by law, we may also
collect, use and disclose personal information in connection with
security related or law enforcement investigations or in the
course of cooperating with authorities or complying with legal
requirements.
We take reasonable precautions to keep all information obtained
from our online visitors secure against unauthorized access and
use and we periodically review our security measures.
